I disagree with you.
It depend how much u spend the money into the car (even for E7GTA/7/8/9)
More money = More speed (with the correct path/way).
GTA need to be careful due to gearbox maintainance & gearbox parts availability.

its almost impossible task to convert GTA to manual...not impossible but almost...and its rather stupid to do so...if its really converted then sthng must have gone really wrong with the car...and i seriously suggest NOT GETTING THE CAR man

Hey there,

I'm going to be purchasing an evo soon. Just some queries.

Are evos stolen often? if so, why and how?
Are evos fast? cos 75% of the fastest 4wds in Sepang seem to be Scoobies.
Name the most reliable evo workshop in Klang Valley, its okay if they are expensive.

Thanks in advance.

elsm80,

Stock Evo vs Stock Impreza (I loose)
I like Evo coz easy to pronounce rather than I.M.P.R.E.Z.A
2nd hand part availability can be tolerate.

All sport car are thief magnet.
Want be fast it depends how much money do you spend on the car.
More Money = More Speed

**not really cos easy to track them down by MLOC members, so thieves will think twice
if so, why and how?
**depends on luck also.

**of course they're damn fast......disagree on that.....depends on the driver as well.

**DD05's workshop. forgot the name edi :)

As long as any check light coming out is abnormal to any car oldi......just get machanic to cucuk the OBD II and get the error code....

- Biasa nya all reasonably fast but Leslie 1 categories as "damm kao fast weiii"....hahahaha

cos 75% of the fastest 4wds in Sepang seem to be Scoobies.

- Maybe you get a Scoobie first and ask Abang Leslie a trip to sepang.....hahahahah

If you like manual transmission. go for E9.. if u prefer semi-auto.. go for E10.. ur choice.. so far no complain of SST gearbox.. unless simply taruh gearbox oil..

it just depend on you 1,evo system is ayc,scoobie dun have this kind system,but scoobie got nice bubble sound,handling by body,just bcoz the scoobie you nid more money on spare parts and modify it,evo spare parts more easier to find out,but in malaysia the stupid guy will say ur car wira or waja modify...=.=",scoobie v9 will say saga blm modify...=.="
