Sounds like a heap of shit as it currently sits. Pay the mad scientist, aka Joey Jigs, for a few hours of work and I’m sure it’ll run like a raped ape.

There is just a LITTLE rust, its in the starting stages on the passenger quarter. But it has not broken through or bubbled the paint at all.

Thats the plan after I clean up some of the little stuff with it. Its on SAFC2 right now, which I’ve been told (and I definitely agree) is a garbage program.

If it is better than DSMlink I’ll look into it. But parts being cheaper won’t push this build forward, I’d rather pay more than less for it.

I tried talking him out of selling it but oh well. The car is as fast as a stock EVO8. BTW you should invest in some coilovers.

Nice pickup, GVR4s are dope.  
for suspension ya cant go wrong with GC/Koni yellow  
First thing you should look into is dropping that DSMlink V3 in there, it’ll really wake the car up with a tune.  
Def talk to Jiggs, you’ll be in good hands since he worked on all 3 of my dizzums  
I have a shitton of dsm parts sitting in my room you should scoop em up :rofl

Evo scan is not needed for dsm’s. Dsmlink is tried and true and no need to go run a different ecu in the car when there are easier solutions
