i've had my 1g eclipse gs-t since october and i know it's an eclipse but incase you didn't know both the 1g turbo eclipse and the evo have the 4g63 (6 bolt) motor. now these motors are known for being very strong and a very good platform for turbo however, this is a mitsubishi and incase you didn't know mitsubishi aren't exactly the most reliable cars around but on the other hand they're fun to have. but at the same time they're bitches to work on...they don't call them mitsuBITCHi for nothing. just keep that in mind when you're buying the evo

Thats wrong info. Mitsubishi (4g63)(420a) etc... are some of the easiest motors to work on.

You do realize that they have the same basic motor setup? Engine sideways, exhaust mani in front, intake mani in rear? If you find evos hard to work on then maybe you shouldnt be fuckin with shit.
