Believing that the only way Evo performance can take a big step forward is with drastic weight loss, Norris Designs have built an Evo that should weigh in at just 1080kg. With a power to weight ratio of nearly 800bhp per ton it's almost 300bhp per ton more powerful than the old Norris Design Evo 7 demo car!!

To build an Evo this light has meant the car has undergone some major weight loss and incredible engineering, including a substantial amount of the bodyshell being removed to make the car shorter and lower. In fact it is 10inches shorter and 3inches lower than a standard Evo 9 shell. With the shell customised this much, the rear doors have been removed creating the world's first Short Wheelbase 2-Door Evo....

ND Evo 9 SWB - Basic Spec List:

Power
841Hp & 635LbFt (Klotz 118 Race Fuel)
Target weight 1080Kg (Dry)
Target top speed: 215 Mph+
Target ¼ mile: Sub 9 seconds

Engine, Gearbox, ECU & Brakes
ND 2.3 litre stoker
Garrett GT42R roller bearing turbo
ND 4” WRC style custom exhaust system with side exit
Motec M800 Pro ECU
Holinger dog engagement straight cut gearkit
Ikeya sequential shifter with digital gear indicator
Brembo 8 pot metal matrix calipers front & rear

Body
Acid dipped custom 2 door short wheelbase low roof Evolution 9 shell
Custom T45 full weld in load bearing roll cage
Custom air jack tyre changing system

Looks awesome. Except the gay paint job that belongs on a f'n 180sx or similar.

Evo's aren't drift cars. :D (but they can be!)

I like it as a 2 door. Looks hot. I want the exhaust and the gearbox. Gearbox alone is 10000-15000 AUD. I just rang hollinger and asked :D They wouldn't give an exact figure :(

If I start saving now, I should have enough money to buy one just after petrol supply has ran out.

And on that bombshell, here is another piece of EVO news, albeit quite old now, still interesting, http://media.mitsubishi-motors.com/pres ... l1321.html

200kW 4WD that plugs in to your wall

It's the word bombshell :P

Max. output 50 kW
Max. torque 518 Nm

, per motor. 180km/hr, Is that the factory cut or is that it's full flat speed?

Electric cars are looking better and better

as we all know, electric motors have heaps of torque. I saw tonight on "beyond tommorow" an air powered rotary motor, pretty awesome.

The two door evo - i say new released starion!
