Never owned one but have a fair few mates who has/had em, great cars, look hard as fuck IMO and bargains for what you get.

They basically the same as later evos with regard to engine and so on even tho the engines look totally different, so pretty much as capable.

The 4wd system isnt as flash as later models, but fuck me they do handle.

Id like one as another car if I could afford one, but I cant, so I wont

Pretty sure Sean Bickness has/had an early Evo, and he loved it for the money spent.

A girl down the road from me has one and she loves it to bits.

It goes very well too - fair play

Do the 3's suffer with crankwalk as badly as the 2's do?

Don't know about that but they suffer from transfer box problems.

Yep, all evos suffer from crank walk, but only the 1,2,3 & 4 show it with any regularity........
