hi sifus of Evo's
Im very new at this Subaru models , I'm not sure of wat the the difference between evo 7 ,8 or 9 so

You mean difference between Subarus & EVO 7,8,9? Or do you think EVO 7,8,9 are Subaru?

The main difference between Subaru Impreza & EVO is the engine. Subaru traditionally use boxer engine, low, flat & light weight. Advantage low, flat engine means lower center of gravity & better handling. Disadvantage most servicing involves lifting out the whole engine, so maintenance is more expensive. EVO uses inline 4 engine, advantage easier to tune & maintain.

Also EVO are usually more focus on performance so its sharper to drive but uncomfortable. while Impreza are usually easier to drive & more comfortable but not as sharp as EVO.

And EVO's are Mitsubishi.

for quicker info, just google it up bro,
the best is to get evo8MR

Ok to break it down EVO 7,8,9 are all using the same platform CT9A. Difference?

EVO 7 is the new 'base' design for future EVO(8 & 9), its slightly less powerful, slightly slower, heavier & not as good handling as EVO 8 & 9.

EVO 8 is upgraded EVO 7 with better everything. Brakes are Brembo, shock absorber are Bilstein, lighter wheel & overall lighter weight than EVO 7. Result is faster & better to drive than EVO 7.

EVO 8 MR is an upgraded EVO 8 with even better Bilstein absorbers, even lighter wheels, 6-speed gearbox, lighter aluminium roof for lower center of gravity, a better LSD & a much more advanced traction control & stability control system. Some version even come with more power.

EVO 9 is again an upgraded EVO 8 with the introduction of MIVEC for the 1st time on an EVO. A redesigned turbo to work better with MIVEC producing a wide powerband & also more power. EVO 7 & 8 around 280hp, EVO 9 produce 290hp.

EVO 9 MR is similar to EVO 8 MR, basic EVO 9 with brembo brakes, bilstein absorber, better traction control & stability control, lighter aluminium roof & lighter wheels.

In terms of driving experience (i have the privilege to drive the EVO 7 & EVO 8) EVO 8 is alot better than EVO 7, EVO 8 just has better traction, better brakes & overall more responsive than EVO 7. So i presume EVO 9 will be better & easier to drive (with MIVEC) than EVO 8 since its an EVO 8 upgrade.

Thanks for the break-down man,:wavey: i guess Evo is just an upgarde of each version. cool

From what i heard Subaru will cost more to service, cause of the boxer engine. One of my friend and gang member owns a ver.3 Subaru Impreza Type R Sti, the rare 2 door version. He told me that alot of work requires lifting out the engine or removing alot of stuff from the engine bay cause the boxer engine is compact & everything is hard to access thats why labor is expensive. But my friend who own an EVO 8 told me that EVO need servicing more frequently than the Impreza, especially the EVO MR versions. So in the end the servicing cost is just about the same.

Like i posted above EVO 9 MR has 6-speed gearbox, Bilstein monotube shocks, forged aluminum BBS wheels, aluminum roof, hood, and front fenders, HID headlights with integrated fog lights, vortex generator, and custom MR badging. Its a little faster, sharper & more precise than standard EVO 9.

Best place to get 1 probably from NAZA, nicely refurbish & comes with warranty but price negotiation is minimal.

EVO 8 MR is the lighter, faster, sharper version of EVO 8, consider it EVO 8.5 for the difference refer to my post above.

No EVO doesn't have a knocking sound, its a knackered car i think.

 

[skyboy]

I guess so moreover the sales man couldn't answer me anything bout the car all he told me was it's a power-full car , hahahaha well who doesn't know that.

Hope some1 can help me seek out nice Evo 9 or 8.5 :)

 

[Prince_Lycan]

I'm seriously looking for an EVO 9 unreg or second hand depends on the conditions.
Budget 140k to 165K for second hand
Unreg :- retail price

Ari

This knocking could be the tappets, i have an Evo 8 MR and from time to time they get a little bit lazy and start to sound like they are knocking, you can hear it but it shouldnt be loud. this isnt a problem but if it gets persistent then its probably a good idea to change them... if i was you i would get a mechanic to come check the car for you 1st to confirm... but yes there can be a slight tapping sound from them... hope this helps you... good luck with finding an Evo
