i'm in the same boat. Selling my 34gtt aswell and looking at an evo 8mr. I'm going evo for the simple fact. Family car. 4 doors and some boot space. Think about how far you are away with kids because two doors are a pain with baby's in the back, and a pram in the boot and that's all you'll fit. I'm going jdm evo 8mr instead of ausi delivered evo 9. Jap stuffs always better
