your a one lucky guy to have thas kind of options open !!!!!.....silly Q to ask in a skyline forum though....but i think above all the, GTR has that X factor about it......although i think in twisty stuff the evo will probably thump it...

I say have both then you have the best of both worlds, Plus investments are your friend if it was the ultimate descision it all comes to money but id go the r34 n e day over evo :P

Hey guys i own a 06 evo 9 at the moment, but i came across a really nice 02 R34 GTR V-soec for sale, and its at a awesome price and hasnt been comlianced yet. im confused if i should sell the evo and buy the gtr or what :P just wanna know what u guys and girls think. Would u own a evo or gtr, id really appriceted the help

I would go the gtr too but as eug said. Watch the money trap. I guess the problem stems from so many go fast and look good options in the market place for skylines Its hard to know where to stop. If you can discipline yourself to a certain level and just appreciate it for what it is I think you would enjoy it immensely.

Yeah thats very true, IF i did go the 34, id so simple things just like my 33 GTR

So given really there isnt THAT much difference between the 33 and 34 (other than newer and obviously looks). Why did you sell the R33 and get the evo?

For what your going to use the car for, maybe look at something compleatly different? Just a suggestion.

The EVO is an awesome car, they do very well on the track with little money spent on them. The fuel economy will be better in an EVO and its nice having a newer car because generally speaking they have less problems.

Having said all that, an EVO doesn't make me moist so I say GTR all the way!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
