If it’s possible to create a completely different face like the Nissan Silvia’s body kit, it seems possible to implement a body kit that reproduces the Evo 4. The biggest obstacle is that the Evo 4 does not have a North American version. This is because T10 and PGG are apparently reluctant to include vehicles that do not have a North American version.
This is proof that T10 made a poor choice by selecting the Evo 6 with its low roll center as the only CP9A remaining in Forza. The link goes to a column by Mr. Nakaya, who was deeply involved in the development of the Lancer Evolutions, and he writes that the Evo 5 with its high roll center produced better results.
Therefore, the optimal solution for CP9A is the TME of CP9A final model, which has an Evo 5-specification roll center height, and it would be nice to have the Evo 5 and 6 front and rear bumpers available as options.
On the other hand, the narrow-body Evo 4 (CN9A) should be treated separately. However, since it would be difficult to include two Evos from this generation, it would be more realistic to add a body kit that reproduces the Evo 4 to the TME.
2000 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Tommi Makinen Edition
The model in the photo has the optional “Special Coloring Package” applied. This coloring also needs to be added to the body color.
Its greatest mechanical feature was that it was a special edition vehicle specialized for tarmac. Whereas the Evo VI suspension had a lower roll centre for the front suspension, the Tommi Mäkinen Edition’s roll centre and alignment had been optimised again. What’s more, tarmac-specification suspension that lowers the vehicle height by 10mm comes as standard on the GSR (optional on the RS).
On the other hand, the quick steering gear ratio that was standard on the RS has also been adopted for the GSR, and tuning has been applied for high initial responsiveness.
I have no idea why T10 dropped the last CP9A model (Evo 6 TME) after FM3 and kept the least popular CP9A model, the Evo6.
The Evo6 TME is included with a new molding for tarmac, and the Evo4 (CN9A) + wide body with an overall width of 1770mm is included for dirt. These are my ideals for this generation of Lancer Evolution, but it will take an endless amount of time for them to understand them.
