Welcome to the less than 800 in North America club! That's how rare the "RS" is. Make sure power door locks install is on your list of things to fix. They are a must. Be very careful cleaning the passenger side mirror, if you move it, it's a NIGHTMARE to readjust by yourself.
Congrats! You'll love it man. I've had an Evo 10 and now have an Evo 8. I have a hard time straying away from the Evo platform. They're all just to good.
Grats on the Evo! I purchased on new back in 03 and then a Evo X new ( which I still have ) in 08. Funny enough, I'm close to pulling the trigger on a CW FL5 at the moment.
Congrats to you homie! I grabbed my 06 IX new with 3 miles on it…currently sitting at 68k, had no idea back then the car would be considered a unicorn in the future. The car always puts a smile on my face with every drive. I like the “wingless” look too ,all the ones I’ve come across have always been beastly fast lol. It’s funny how my neighbors kids say I own a “fast and furious “ car. Drive safe homie and enjoy that 4 door exotic killer 🙏🏼
Honestly same plan as every other car I've owned so far. Learn the chassis, work on it a bunch and just drive and track the heck out of it! After a month or so I decide if it's worth keeping a little longer or trade for something else on my bucket list
So far did compression test and leakdown. Compression is really good but leakdown reveals cylinder 1 may have a sticky intake valve. I changed out plugs, coils and wires and still getting some misfire
The Evo delivers a raw analog experience that is hard to beat. Congrats.
very nice car, tuning looks like its on speed density already as well
Super Clean!! Congrats man. Welcome to the Evo gang!
Appreciate it!!
Congrats!
That check engine light might be a knock light. Tephra mod on the ECU allowed the check engine light to be used as a knock light.
Definitely that’s how mine is set up , it will flash if you have knock counts
congrats here for the evo content
i knew it would be an Evo!! I love this thing man congrats again!!

Thanks for the tips!

You should! Such a great car
@@BuyYourBuildended picking up a cw FL5!
Always wanted a Evo, sweet pickup enjoy
Thanks 👍
Clean!! Check engine might be the display for engine knock. Should get the tune looked at and thoroughly look through the settings.
This is very common
This!
maybe that flashing check engin light is knock detection?
Yes it is, and Im leaning towards the exhaust leak and missing hardware causing the knock detection

A 1 owner evo 9 is a keeper for sure! Never let it go. Hope to find an 9 someday to trade into. Thank you!
I’m only here for the evo 😍
Yo someone being a ninja in the back
Awesome Evo. Do you know the specs on the rpf1s?
18x9.5+45
USDM Evo 8/9 RS didn't have the option of Brembos like the real JDM Evo RS! only way to not run them was to have 15in steel rims
Sounds like an option to me
What’s your plans with it?
Honestly same plan as every other car I've owned so far. Learn the chassis, work on it a bunch and just drive and track the heck out of it! After a month or so I decide if it's worth keeping a little longer or trade for something else on my bucket list
Was it pretty easy to buy a car through Car&Bids?
Easy to buy but their post-sale service sucks. Will be making another video
It’s from buschur, you’re fine. Just clean the gas out

Great, so you're one of the guys who keeps outbidding me....
lmaoo
OOO my god it's Tim old EVO..
Yes, how do you know him?
I've been in the car game for a long time!! Working on my next build EK9 CTR ....Honda boys back in the early 90's...
that's awesome! @@chadbooth2114
