Your car: Evolution VI GSR
This has been for sale for a while...I still have the magazine in which this car was featured. It hasn't changed much throughout the years, but i'm glad that big Kenwood sticker has been removed!

The rims and interior colour scheme isn't to my liking, but I don't have to live with it! :D Nice buy Jay...no doubt that it's one of the best going around... :P

Now for more pics. Engine bay please! :P 8)

Cheers for the comments guys, newy the sound system isn't too bad it needs a new deck as this ones just way too old hahaha. the 2 12" powerplants in my maroon cordia go a bit better but I might transfer that system into this one.

The owner actually had the magazine it was featured in on the backseat in immaculate condition, better compared to my battered version from under the bed hahahaha. I'm still going to chan ge some things on the car to more my style, more concentrate on getitng it kinda of legal at the moment get an enclosure for the pod and a cam cover and that should be sweet, as Sydney is just hell for any modified car user.

Below is a old engine bay pic from the previous owner, its pretty much the same except no more bov, and the wiring's been tidied a bit. I have a TD06 20G in my room and some other goodies to maybe add down the track. But i'm enjoying the car atm while its reliable, and good on fuel :)

Hey guys,

Thought I might update the progress on this car. It's been off the road due to a clutch issue which is now getting sorted.

So in the meantime got number plates.............WARS.ON need to get the black dot made up between the S and O just to its that little easier to read.

I had a big set up all ready to go into this car but with the recent laws and mates getting absolutely @ssraped by police the RTA and the epa I figured it wasnt worth it so, just concentrating on getting it just a little zippy for the street, and just enjoying it on the weekend cruising when I can as i'm just flat out with DJ'ing at the moment.

Also put my old chromies from the maroon cordia on and got rid of those vault sevilles.

More pics to come shortly, still need to neaten up the engine bay a little bit. Hope its sheds a bit of light to get the cordias on the road as i'm keen as for a Sydney cruise :)

Hey guys,

Kind of been a while since I updated the progress on this car.

In a nut shell basically had one of my cordia dreams come true and got the rear of the cordia air bagged, all custom fittings, lines bag set up etc. Creates alot of attention I must say and puts the biggest grin on my face the saying "flicking switches-getting bitches" is certainly true lol. The car hops (literally) up and down and side to side. Truely pimpin I must say.


Don't know if this is the first cordia in NSW-AUS-or in the world to have a airbag set up to it but certainly one of the first iv'e heard of.

As you can see through the pictures she drops very very low, any lower and it basically would almost be undriveable. With the exhaust and wheels scrubbing while driving completely aired out. With the car raised even just a little bit the car is still a dream to drive.

For now the pics show the system fully filled and aired out, more pictures of the set up and videos to come shortly guys.

I am contemplating doing the front but we'll see what happens there already is custom pedders coilovers in there at the moment.

Big thanks and shout out to Pro Bag, DAM LOW Customs and Semi Customs for the work and assistance. Without this none of their help none of this would ever have happened.


Enjoy. :)

Iv'e had the springs out in my other cordias and can say having it bagged is slightly lower then that, the bump stops were also taken out.

Always going to stick with 18's iv'e had cordias dumped on stockies and 17's, and 18's just allow for that extra driveability with the extra inch really mattering when theres low clearance.

hurry up get front done!!!!! is all i can say :P front is biggest difference!!!! coz cant drop front with normal springs, as then you ride on the struts... riding on bump stops in rear aint too bad. airbags, different story :)

cost much?
