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:

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
