Is the manifold blowing at the left side? Any idea when the belt was last done?

The wheels on Evo 3/4 often look like that. Think it's due to the front having more camber.

Has it been remapped/setup?

Thanks

C8SEE, if you buy it, I'll drive it up North for you on the 13th Feb, as I'm coming up anyway

If my drive wasn't so damn steep, I'd consider it myself

Keep looking at this..... billy bargain!

Was never a big fan of the early Evo's but a friend has a 3 and I love it! They're lighter than the later ones and more raw with no driver aids. He's spent a fair few quid on his now with forged engine, bigger turbo etc, he just needs a map now and is hoping for around 400bhp

qad - you ain't seen my drive mate.!!!

across path/kerb, then it dips slightly for rain gutter, then rises at probably 30 degrees.

My ST24 sometimes scraped the front coming down, and I'm sure the Evo would be lower at the front end
