Found out today that the WRX MY05 series came out in a "sports shift" auto which im guessing is the same as out Tip...

So if you know of any around for sale let me know !

I will give you a bit of tip;

The wrx gearboxes are very well known for having glass gearboxes (break easily). I would think the tip would be even worse.

EVO VIII also comes in GTA, similar price to EVO VIII, there are heaps for sales.

i tell him to get evo VII GTA because the price is more closer to his MY05 tip wrx.
evo8 GTA will be way over it.

the evo VII GTA was never bought into Australia

Since all the evos were bought in as a "low volume" import by mitsubishi, you can still import them through private at a much cheaper rate.

There are quite a lot of companies that can import one for you.

Just ask around!

YEah your right, just spoke to a dealer in NSW that are starting to import them, looking at around $35k

He said they were about 6months off but other dealers would already have them..

What year what that be.

Iam going to buy a Evo 8 at the end of the year, i got plenty of time to look around

I think they are 02's

barfy · Post by **barfy** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 5:04 pm

You think one of these would do over a WRX, im sure they would be built better and the transmission wouldnt be made out of glass !

The transmission is MUCH better, I think the whole package is better.
