Will the EVO go for a walk?

[damax03]

Do you think the new EVO will develop crankwalk like the 1g and 2g dsm's? Post your reasons.

no, have u ever heard of an evo engine crankwalking? neither have i, its about as rare as a 6 bolt crankwalking
besides everything being a little bit bigger for the bigger stock turbo the definitive difference between an evo engine and a 2g engine is that the evo is stronger and will not crankwalk, even the evo 1-3 engines that can be put in a 2g dsm are just as strong as any 6 bolt engine u can get
the evo is exactly that, the evolution of the engine in our 2g dsms, evoloution means its gotten better, they didnt spend years developing the next step in the evoloution of the 4g63 to make the same mistakes again and sell an engine that will suffer from crankwalk

I say no. Really the problem was 2g's. And with the break they took from the 2g engine until the Evo, Mitsu better have figured their shit out.

some Evo 4's had Crankwalk issues. Reason I say this, some guy had one sent to JUN for some modification and they highly recommended using the Evo 5 or later motor because of some Main bearing failures according to them. I think its crankwalk.

But other than that, I think the new 4g63 is bullet proof.

i think any manual trannied car can get crank walk. The 7 bolt motor was just the best at it.

STFU. It's not about "how strong the motor is".

It's about how incorrectly the bearings and cranks have been machined.

Crank walk is not something that is JUST TO THE 2GS!! It happens to cars. I think their will be exceptions and a few motors that will crankwalk. I am not saying that it will be horrible or anything. The 2gs just have more chance to crankwalk. 1gs have a chance to crankwalk as well. There are some people with 1gs that have crank walked.

There will most likly be atleast one crankwalked evo 8.

Yes but they're cases of CW are less than the 2G's

Even Auto's can CW.. My buddy's 97 Auto CWed on him...

I should have specified that the 6 bolts crank walk as well.
