Hi kanan.. AYC oil is more expensive compare to LSD.. coz AYC need plus minus 2 cans of Mitsu AYC oil for flushing which is around rm80-90 per can.. where LSD oil 4 litre only around rm130.. ^^..
Usually AYC oil service, we do it together when service ur gearbox, front/rear diff.. tis will save some $$ on the labour too.. hehe...

bro, what gps is advisable to use on evo 8??currently my ride only have immobiliser...should i install an alarm??what is recommended mileage to service AYC ol and gearbox oil??some ppl said is every 10k...for ur information im using this monster for a daily ride from my house to my kedai...about 4km/day and plus jalan2 time weekend la...sry for the noob question..really appreciate for a good reply..cheers

Bro OS.. ^^.. GPS .. there are lotsa brand outside.. but the branded one will be Captor.. others will be non-branded name.. so hav to be careful which GPS provider u choose coz some new GPS company might just hit & run or close shop within 1 yr.. hehehe.. Best is still Captor..

ur gearbox service usually is 10k.. but if u always hard drive & "drift" here & there.. hehee.. then mayb service in 7-8k mileage.. . if just daily use car.. jalan here, jalan there normal drive.. 10k should b ok.. ^^..

alarm = to know ur status if ur car is lock or not.. if suddenly is unlock then u will b alert..
immobilizer = only can start ur car wif special card access or others security gadget.
GPS = to trace ur car location.

So very depend on how secure u wan ur car to b.. ^^..

Evofans,

What is the serial number for a ix MR? May be I can check it it the car details. Just don't want to get fooled with GSR sold as MR.

The MR emblem the back of my future evo is on the right. But when I google around it is on the left nect to lancer word.

Other than that all looks MR to me. Recaro with red linining.

Bro Johny Tan,

Is there any maintenance schedule available? 30,000 KM what to device and so on la. I also have question like Oneshot, where is the recommended service centre for our egos. Pj and kl also can or sunway. I can there

Not sure about serial #
Look at Model Year?EVO IX MR=MY06
And there are also GSR and RS trim for IX MR
In fact,all generation of EVO have GSR and RS trim with exception of VII GT-A and IX(There are also GT)
RS mostly come in white color with exception of IX MR which have red colour also for RS
lancerregister basic of owning EVO: http://www.lancerregister.com/downloads/MLR Evo Buyers Guide v1_00.pdf
There are some helpful guide and tips there
Hope this post does help you

Not really sure on that
But don't matter as long as it is 2006 Model Year one

[greenmivec]

Yes it is a 2006 model car.

 

[EVOFans]

Yes it is a 2006 model car.

Then it is an EVO IX MR
And EVO IX MR only come in red,gray,silver and yellow for GSR model i think

I think it is a MR based on the color, year of manufactured and the accessories. But there is not specific differences between GSR n MR. if the next shipment is taking too long I will get the silver one .

Bro Johny thanks for the PM. Hope to see you one day. Now very busy every day KL - Melaka

Well..spec wise they are quite similar
Personally i think EVO IX spec is better,especially the GT one as it have 5 Spd gearbox(Stronger then 6spd,lighter),LSD instead of AYC(More cheaper to maintain,less thing to go wrong and lighter) and 16G Compressor Turbo instead of 15G used in EVO IX MR
For power and powerband difference between EVO IX and EVO IX MR i am not sure as there are no back to back comparison....
Hmmm...This bring me a new subject to look for
