Has anyone seen those evo replicas that are actually a 1.6 fwd? I mot'd one the other year and can't think of their name. I thought it was a cyborg but that's the colt. They look like the evo 5

 

Theyre called Mivecs. They were available ina couple of shapes. they use the same engine as the Cyborg Colt, and there was a Colt Mivec as well, the Cyborg just had less weight (Manual windows, etc)

 

you can get a lancia in none evo form, if that`s what you mean and just add the kit?

 

Proton wira??

 

Mitsubishi Lancer ?

mitsi carisma?
sure ive seen a few evo reps based one those?
EDIT: After a quick google i dont think thats the one i thought it was :/

 

Subaru Impreza's?

 

Delorean?

 

Do you mean the 2 door cars?

I saw them in OZ. Evo 5 bumpers etc! But they are still Mitsi.

 

Interceptor

 

Proton

 

I think you're talking about the Mirage. Theyre a Colt front end with a lancer boot, again there was Mivec versions just like the Colt and Lancer.

I used to own one, bought it cheap with no tax or test, did a few bits and sold it on for a tidy profit

 

tuk tuk

 

Batmobile?
Genral lee?!?
Thunder bird 2?!?!?!?

 

Saxo with Jap tuning stickers?

 

This is what I saw. I saw a few exactly the same. Were they sold like that or modded?

 

Nope they were modded.. Its all just evo styled aftermarket stuff. look far nice with just a late colt bumper and a nice splitter.

That looks a bit civic/integra ish at the front!

It's weird that I saw quite a few of those evo styled cars. No badges and I hadn't a clue what they were. Cheers for pointing it out. I'm emmigrating soon so nice to know what I'm seeing.

 

Theyre a common sight over here in Ireland. They're pokey enough as well. The engine is a 1.6 FWD Mivec, its a lot like vtec that there's a changeover at higher revs and then they really come alive.

 

Yeah mivec sounds right couldn't think of the name for the life of me

 

That isn't it actually. They look like the Eco 5 with the kit and spoiler but are fwd 1.6

 

Well it could be any lancer of that generation with the Evo 5 kit put on because it will fit.

There 1.6 engined lancer is known as the Mivec because of the system the engine uses, it would be the same as B16 civics being referred to as DOHC Vtecs.

The other models are a 1.3 Sohc FWD and the 1.8 Turbo 4WD GSR. Theres possibly a non mivec 1.6 as well but thats it

 

Dont the fto have a Mivec system on its V6 as well?

 

MIVEC.. mitsubishi innovative valve timing electronic control system

 

They do indeed.. and so do the Evo engines, even the EVO X still has the name on the engine, although im not sure if how the system operates has stayed the same
