Well technically I'm all messed up as I'm a Texan that was raised Mexican (can't wait to see how this conversation ends up going, lol).

Mexico puts on a damn good rally in Guanajuato every year for WRC. Our driving and cars may suck, but we have one damn good rally.

Welcome. Your car is definitely a sleeper-- as much of a sleeper as an Evo can be, anyway.

Re: Evo owner new to style

Great progress yesterday! I worked Andrew like a slave Pieces of block all over the place and three holes punched through the oil pan.

Removed undertray, drain what little engine oil and coolant remained, removed intake and IC piping, removed the battery and tray, removed the engine harness, removed the fuel rail and associated components, disconnected a bunch of vacuum lines, removed subframe cross members and front engine mount, etc.

I think another few hours of prep work and the longblock will be ready to pull. The next steps will be to remove the front axles and unbolt the transfer case.

Andrew - start a project thread!
