Unfortunately I don't think there will be a conversion as there are too many parts necessary to convert that you might end up being better off with purchasing the whole kit

The US will get the car kit about 3-4 weeks after the Japan market. I remember calculating and it is cutting it close for the TCS National here in the US (end of August)

The Evo3 can be upgraded to somewhat of an Evo4 with theTech Racing 3-piece shaft & Square Alluminum gearboxes and upper deck supports...

I'm just woundering if the crown gear from the Evo4 will work on a stock Evo3SL to lower the drive ratio

and you should be able to put the new wishbones on from the evo4 to the evo3.
they look wider so they will give an increase in track width producing stabillity and lengthning the top links producing more grip

I'm guessing with the new wishbones you'll need the new turnbuckles and arms too....

I doubt it'll be TCS arproved this year (ooc: Is the 415?)

I honestly think the blue annodizing is ugly on anything other than the 414 & the TC3.....I'll wait for the Surikarn Edition (It'll take me that long to save up...only $407 to go!)

Basic rule is, if its released before the first of may its legal for that years TCS FINALS (Europe) This means that the EVO IV can not be used at the finals.

Please get your facts straight. I used a Ta04TRF last year in Snetterton. This year in GT1 the EVO3 and 415 are allowed. If you don't believe me, ask Isherwood. Maybe even Rick Draper knows.
As of this year all the ex Euro champs are allowed to compete aswell so i'm hoping that John will be there just to ad some spirit.

Regards
