Power windows conversion for RS?

[dimi_108]

Hey fellas. As you all know the RS Evo Zero's didn't come with any power options. Was wondering if it would be possible to replace the RS's budget window winders with the complete power windows off an AUS spec (or Jap spec for that matter). Anyone done it ybefore?
From the looks of it, i think it could be easily done if i sourced the parts. But was told the car would lose value if i swap over (or upgrade).

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Haha appreciate the fast replies. Okay i've got a question. Why does everyone say "NOO" or "are you crazy?" etc? Wouldn't you want the ease of power windows? Am i missing something here?

They just want you to keep it factory RS spec EVO 0 mate as they are hard to find.

 

[dimi_108]

Ah got ya. Yeah it keeps it original. Plus with wind ups you'll never need to worry about broken regulators etc. so i'll leave them the way they are then.

You dont want power windows!! :lol:

You need to swap the doors I have power windows, you don't.. I think I see a possible solution...

Nah, in all seriousness, power windows is just one of those things that break. Then again, windup windows can break too.. and finding replacement parts probably isn't that easy.

It's pretty funny actually, RS's are cheaper new but WAY more expensive and desirable secondhand...

[tUfRiCe]

just a quick q? why would you buy an evo 0 rs the best vr4 you can get then put power windows in it... winder windows make you go faster thats why u have the go fast vr4 leave it. your car is rare for this reason

 

[doommachine]

I've seen the car, and my memory of it includes windows.

 

[265T]
