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:

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
