Evo...it is newer end of story...I am fecking sick of fixing boring things on my car

Stock for stock the Evo should cut a faster lap time as well and it should keep that up till the mods get serious

rally car versus mountain climber

what do we have more of around brisbane?

problem solved.

who said the gtr was a mountain climber? the evo would absolutely smash a gtr on the mountains

I thought that was an odd statement too!

Indeed I am! :closedeyes:

If I had my time over I would have bought an EVO over the GTR. . . . . GTRs cost way too much to make them reliable at the track, EVOs are a much better package out of the box. But if you have a money tree by all means go the GTR.

i gotta say gtr, there's just sentimental value with a gtr, they sound amazing and i'm sure they are an awesome car when they run :thumbsup:

but i agree with the reliability thing. speaking with mark (giant) today at 1r, he said he wouldnt run his car for more than 10 laps at a time caus it'd jsut blow, and thats one sorted gtr! too much money but the enjoyment is (would lol) be well worth it

i rather like his Evo better been through a few cars together .34 is more of a older car .. doesnt have the zippy conering and every day driveablity or the cop attention .. GTR well weather GTR or GT-T they all get same amount of attention.. good and bad.. personally id buy a GTR if i had alot of money to throw around.. EVO simple mods and its a early 12 sec car wip gtrs day in day out .. more practical , lesser attention seeking .. cheaper to run and maintain , and the work you do you know yourself how good the mivec series 4g63's are !.. you already had a low 12 sec gtr didnt do anything apart from piss fart and break ! .. they arent the best cars to throw money on (bang for buck) stock ones last longer ! keep the evo .. do the APC evo stage 2,3 run low 12s and keep happy !.. buy the GTR since you live with me i will drive it when you dont :)

for looks i'd say gtr, and personalyl i'd say gtr for myself (cause i'm a hoon), but i know i would break it pretty fast. but at the end of the day i would probably say evo. espeially if you owned it from new. with a gtr you can't be sure of how it has been treated, how it was run in, etc.

for running costs the evo would hose the gtr. only 4 cylinder rego, cheaper insurance cause it was a manufacturer imported car, cheaper on fuel.

i'm gonna go against the popular choice and say keep the evo. If you didnt own either i would buy the r34 gtr but since you already own the evo i say keep it. But thats just me, i get emotionally attached to my car

there are millions of times when i wanted to sell mine......

but i can not sell it..the enjoyment i get out of driving it is just unbelievable...never had the same feeling on any other cars i have owned...

having said that though, i have not owned an evo, so i dont know how well it drives...

id say keep the one you feel better driving....

better yet, have them both

I like the look of the GTR better than the Evo, even if the evo is a better car it is ugly, and I cant drive an ugly car.

Oh and water restrictions? Sucks to be you! I leave my sprinkler on top of my roof on all day while I am not there to cool it down for when I get home and turn on the aircon, sometimes leave my sprinkler on for days, pffft no water restrictions up here :huh:

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • 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!
