the interiors are dated in both motors but next time you get in an evo you will know exactly what I mean they look totally out of place.

To be honest I'd be happy with an Evo 1 as long as it doesn't smoke

Update on the disappearing coolant.

Header tank was really low again this morning. Topped it up and went shopping. When I got back I parked on the drive and low and behold the was a few drops coming from under the car, although I had a brief look I can't see where it's coming from. Looks like underneath the turbo or that sort of area. Any ideas??

Removed the rear seats and spare wheel today to see what would happen.

Was enjoying driving around the twisty roads till I saw the fuel gauge.

I'm interested in the etching for a tenner then.

Not 100% but pretty sure I'm going to have a CDB built while I keep running this engine. That way I will be able to salvage something from it instead of waiting for it to blow up.
