Hi Spiky,

Welcome to the MLR

Have a read of the difference between the GSR/RS here in the MLR FAQ.

 

cheers for that


is there a trick diff in the RS version????


that page dont mention engine or transmission


thanks for the welcome :coolsm:

 

Here is alot more information from my own web site

Click on the 'Major Equipment' section for a detailed breakdown of what is fitted to the GSR/RS models. This applies to the Evo V however it is very similair to the IV RS.

 

cheers again for that

 

..Or you could just read the buyers guide..

Hi Spiky, welcome to the MLR, i see you've decided to venture away from pf for abit you sheep shagger :crackup: :crackup: (sorry) Top bunch of people on here mate, they & the site helped me out alot when i changed from my esc cos to my evo tme :coolsm: By the way people i can vouch for Spiky he's a top bloke & is genuinely thinking of changing over to an evo so please try & look after him. Thankyou very much (in an Elvis stylee) :nod: :lol:

 

Hi Spiky, I've had a few cossies in my time and I've got an evo 4 at the moment. You'll love the Evo mate, they turn in like no other, with the right mods they nip along quite nicely too.

To be honest though I think the later cars are regarded as having stronger engines than the 4. I have an evo 6 engine in mine, there are a few around with this conversion. With the 6 engine a few mods such as uprated big end bolts, uprated fuel pump and fpr, induction, exhaust and PE ECU will allow you to use an AVCR to run the car up to 1.6bar!, mine can take this (and I have the mods), but I'm only running 1.35 and it flies along nicely.

 

how much did it cost to put an Evo VI engine in the IV??

 

awesome and much appreciate the replies guys

well except my stalker AJ...pmsl :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:


mmm evo 6 converstion??? cost???? easy????




so transmission strong enough for a few launches?????

as i tend to drive mine cossie hard track it and santapod, so want something that will take thew abuse

 

Stalker pmsl :crackup: :crackup: It's ok giving the cars abuse as they're quite solid, it's the sheep that you abuse that im worried about :crackup: :crackup: :crackup: :crackup: Sorry, back to the serious topic at hand.

 

basically i dont want a car when i get in it, have to think about breaking.


i gte in my cossie and if a race or whatever appear, i just go and not think about it.


i would not be able to do that in 4wd escort as the gearbox weak link would always be in my mind.


if they are STRONG STRONG... i'll be getting one.


i'm gonna test drive one friday to see if i like how they drive ansd handle

 

The clutches don't like hard launches and are generally kaputt after about 2 or 3 so if you're into drag racing it then you'll need an uprated version.

Make sure you check the front diff/transfer box as these can be quite pricey if you get a bad un'. Just ask AJ

Andy

P.S. AJ, have you found anyone to fit your new box yet? Send me a PM

 

sweet sounds like they are quite strong then
