Trade Me Find: Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 2 Circuit Car


Welcome to another great Trade Me find. In this article we cover an incredibly well built Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 2 race car.





This Evo is a really clean and straight looking car that appears to have been thought out and built incredibly well. The black paint combined with the silver Enkei RPF1 wheels makes for a really good colour contrast.





The car is powered by Mitsubishi's legendary 4G63T Turbocharged 2.0L Twin Cam Straight 4 with this one producing 365 KW of power. The engine utilises a Mitsubishi Galant VR4 block and crankshaft, ported VR4 head with Ralliart head gasket, forged pistons, ARP studs, baffled sump, HD valve springs & retainers, Kelford TX272 cams with HKS cam gears and a Link Plus G3 ECU that has been upgraded to Link G4 spec. The turbo also runs 16 psi of boost and this setup makes for a reliable and powerful engine. The Evo also comes with a stroked 2.3L 4G63T that is fully built and features a lot of expensive parts.


Mated to the engine is an Evo 3 gearbox with a Cusco LSD in the front and a preloaded rear plate LSD in the rear. Also equipped is a fancy Tilton twin plate clutch.



In the boot is a safety fuel cell with a fuel cooler and a Carter lift pump.



Inside the Evo is an OMP racing seat with full racing harness, carbon fibre console and Momo steering wheel.



The roll cage is made by Octane Automotive and is all certified.



Overall, this Evo looks to be a rather quick beast. The asking price is $30,000 which isn't too bad considering what you get for your money. The car is located in Taupo. To check out the Trade Me listing, click here.
