would rather catch the bus than be forced to drive a eco bullshit car

Hmm, taking public transport or driving around in a eco bull shit car? That's like asking would you rather eat the shit you took today or the shit you took yesterday...

Probably more to do with the economic down turn than anything else.

Holden dropped the monaro, Nissan dropped the gtr. Plenty of examples of this kind of thing happenning before.

No doubt it will make a rerun some time in the future with much ado and fan fare.

When did nissan drop the gtr? I read a drive.com article 3 days ago about nissan's new gtr and how they planned to bring out a new one every 12 months.

Right after the 34. there was about a 5 year gap till the 35.

couldn't see many cubic inches fitting into this

you'd have to rip out the backseats & mid engine that sucker

You dont need the space for cubic inches to make something poweful and dirty...we are a skyline forum after all...see attached.

It sucks there thinking of doing this. The maximum bang for your buck perfomance cars are becoming a dying bread.

Bumping this thread due to a tweet from japanesenostalgiccar.com/

Looks like Mitsubishi have confirmed they are killing of the Evo. Maybe somebody with better translating skills than Google can give some insight on the article.

It's a pity that developing a car these days requires so much investment that it has to be one or the other. Let's hope that other brands still see enough value in "Halo" models to keep producing fun cars.

In that case Ryan my 8MR is up f/s at $10K more than what I paid for it :P

Yes it's a pity they couldn't take the risks that Carlos Ghosn did! Renault is being aggressive atm too.

Now it'll be interesting what Toyota and Subaru will do pursuant to the 86 and BRZ.

Honda IMHO has gone down the safe but wrong track! Currently they're paying for it.

Mitsubishi Motors, entered the final adjustment in the direction to produce the end of the year end high-performance sports car "Lancer Evolution". The model launched the first model in 1992, the current type corresponds to the 10th. Domestic cumulative sales up to 2013 about 92 million units. For many years, and has contributed to improving the brand image of the company, etc. to win the championship year in the World Rally Championship (WRC). However, I was judged in the environment-oriented increases worldwide, that it is necessary to focus on eco-car development and management resources. Focus on development of next-generation eco-car with an electric device, and fostering the image leader of a new Mitsubishi car these in the future. ※ You can see in the daily newspaper automobile electronic version for details.Please try not hesitate to試読a week because it is also possible. Application I take from red banner below.

On the contrary, variety is good.

Even competition is good.

If I thought negative, I'd be smarting over why EVO guys get annoyed about the other car I've left at home!

I could go on but...

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
