I was instructing a modded EVO9 at the school on Sunday. That thing was facelift fast.

Probably one of the fastest accelerating cars I've ever been in.

Hahahaha. I wouldn't love to do some sort of Atacama/Nordkap color scheme. But my focus is being diverted to the 850R. At least through the weekend..... Speaking of which,

Day 1 of manual swap complete (started a day early)!
Got the trans pulled from the donor car last week and all my other parts came in today.
So we got busy after work and pulled the auto.
Went really smooth. We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Atacama/Nordkap color scheme would be an interesting combo. IMO, too much going on, but that's just me.

:tup: good luck with the manual swap this weekend. Nice upgrade to your other R!
