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.

..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?....

      Nismo copper mix twin “pull” pedal height engagement

      By ck_chino · Posted

      Installed  Nismo coppermix twin competition spec last year in my bnr32 with pull trans with Oem slave cylinder. The point at where the clutch disengages/enages is right at the top of the clutch pedal, meaning I barely have to push the pedal down for the clutch to be disengaged.  You guys that have the same combo are you experiencing this high pedal bite point??   Secondly I’d like to have the disengagement point lower meaning I have to push the pedal more(further not effort)for it to be disengaged.  I’m thinking to use a Nismo big operating cylinder(bigger bore at 13/16 vs Oem 3/4) which will require more pedal stroke to get the equivalent movement at the clutch fork. But I see Nismo web site says not to mix these 2 as the Nismo big operating cylinder doesn’t have enough stroke to disengage??? Any folks run both the coppermix twin pull with Nismo cylinder??    Thanks in advance for the replies but prefer only guys with pull clutches to respond. thanks

      Fake ARP bolts?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I wonder if there is much to tell without knowing where the bolts where bought from. If it comes from Amazon or similar all bets are off. Can't trust them. And I fear not everybody knows that. Wasn't it @TurboTapin who ended up with the fake fuel lines recently? The submersible ones which very much weren't submersible at all. It kind of applies to everything nowadays. Doesn't matter if it's hardware or electronics. The fancy camera might have internals swapped out for cheap knockoffs. The hard drive will report a certain size but not actually be able to write it all. Shit like that. A bit depressing but the reality is you really have to be weary of where and how you buy stuff
