The good

- it's nippy

- handles and brakes amazingly

- much more fun at the track without overheating or some shit

- smaller doors (good for parking)

- massive boot (for tools and jerrycans)

- seats are better

- has mivec

- spend less money getting to 300kw (excluding strengthening driveline)

- car is easier to work on (feels like everything was design for the intention to be worked on in a hurry)

The bad

- It's slow (GTR was quick up top)

- turning circle can ead

- gearbox and tranny are weak

- it's a lancer

- evo forum sucks and most evo drivers are a bit different

All in all, I'm enjoying the evo a lot more than the GTR. But I do miss the ability to just blast past any car coz street warrior.

Good run down and very telling that all in all you're enjoying this more.

Lets see how slow it feels once you've E85'd it etc.

What do you mean by Evo drivers being a bit "different"?

Also "It's a Lancer"? A GT-R is just a Skyline too.

Lol a lancer is still less flattering than a skyline.

Most evo drivers look at things differently. I can't describe it lol. They attract a different demographic.

needs more poke

can fit 18x.9.5 +22 good stance

if won't fit, run stretched

get 272 cams for braps

why don't you set up launch control

^ EVO forums :)

Nothing I haven't seen here more or less.

I've seen much worse on NS.com lol

NS.com, late 2000s to early 2010s, mass stance/low/moar low/poke/stretch/pipe roll fap circlejerk

everyone was a suspension, camber, offset and photography expert, building cars around their wheels and ganging up on anyone who didn't meet their wheel fitment requirements and dared to post a pic of their car in the stance thread

Some of that still exists.

My no f**ks given budget CA track car build is in the motorsport section though, much safer in there.

but you get dick heads telling you to throw the viscous diff into the bin and replace it with a S15 Helical Diff LOL

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
