I voted for the Evo. Purely because, for street twisty work, I'd take power-on grip over handling. I'd say on a Nasho or Old Pac run, unless you're a very good driver and you know the road is clear of debris and other traffic (or you don't have any sense of self preservation) the Evo will get you to the other end faster.

If I was to keep it to track work I'd probably take the RX-7. Better handling and balance, and when the course is wider and you know what the road conditions are like you can put the car to its limits.

RX7 all the way: such a lovely design and of course it has the rotary engine which is unique. Whilst I definately respect the Evo's, I can't get past the fact they are still a riced up econobox with horrible plastics, huge wings, and a million imitators.

You'd think they could find a better way to waste money.

the rx7 will turn more heads than the evo for sure...and rx7 is a more pure sports car being a 2door, 2seater

..and its got the pure jap hotness grooves

lancer evo is still a lancer

its like putting a sr engine and brembo brakes in an excel n kitting it...its fully fast ..will out perform most idiots willing to run him....in the end..will u swap ur car for the excel?....

well just my opinion..not looking for flames

      Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.

      My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )

      Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?

      Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!

      Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
