This is a 2006 Mitsubishi Evolution IX MR that was bought new in Oct 2005 and professionally prepared to compete at the National level in the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Touring 2 class. The car is in great condition (for a race car) and has a strong pedigree as it won four of six races run this past season and is the reigning Southeast Division Champion. This car most recently competed in the SCCA National Championship Runoffs at Heartland Park Topeka with a strong eighth place finish as can be seen on SPEED Channel. Checkout www.redcracing.com for plenty of pictures, videos, and stories about this car (#58). Current SCCA Logbook is included. Although prepared primarily as a race car it remains street legal with a clear title and unblemished VIN report. Current Touring 2 class rules require that most of the interior remain including the passengers seat etc. and therefore the car is near stock appearing inside with the exception of the custom built rollcage, Sparco ADV drivers seat and other safety equipment built and installed by Piper Motorsports. The car has had the A/C hardware removed (parts included if the buyer wants them) and the weak 6-speed transmission has been upgraded to a TRE built 5-speed. It has also been upgraded in other ways using only the highest quality parts as listed here:
Performance:
-AMS Catback Exhaust with Muffler delete
-AMS 100 Octane Flash Tune
-AMS SCCA Spec Koyo Radiator
Tires/wheels:
-Hoosier A6 245/40-17 on Kosei K1 TS Gunmetal Gray
Drivetrain:
-AMS SCCA Spec Transmission Cooler w/ pump
-TRE rebuilt 5-speed Transmission
-TRE Rear Differential
Brakes:
-AMS SCCA Spec Brake cooling kit
-Carbotech XP series pads
-SS Brake lines
-SRF Brake fluid
Suspension:
- Custom valved Bilstien dampers with RS front springs and MR rear
***A custom JRZ remote reservoir double adjustable suspension is available for an additional $3k over the bid price.
In car electronics:
-AMB Transponder
-DEFI gauge cluster
This car is a race car and therefore the normal wear and tear of racing should be expected. Currently the windshield does have a minor stress crack, but still will easily pass both SCCA technical and State Saftey inspection. The transmission was replaced at the beginning of the season, but 4th gear currently feels a little tight likely indicating the linkage needs to be readjusted (I'm kinda nit picking here). Per current SCCA rules the car is fitted with a 42.5mm inlet restrictor on the turbo, which can easily be removed (and replaced in 15mins) if the buyer intends to run this car in another series/class or track day events. I love this car and hate to see it go, but current circumstances dictate it must find a new home.
