get the GTR, As good as Evos are, its just a shitty lancer :D

Ditto. If all you want is a wheelbarrow that handles go buyt a kart. Both the evo and the rex are darn plain shitty looking cars compared to a 15 yo line. As for breakage. if you leave the line at the same power output as the evo it wont break either.

Trouble is, we keep on trying to squeeze more and more out of them. That said. who gives a shit, If it aint breaking you aint tryin hard enough. Leave them alone and they wont break, Mod them and they will. So will the others if they are taken to some of the extremes that lines are taken to.

As the driver of the giant car said. he owns both and with the same dollar invesatment in the evo it still wont blow wind up the arse of their gtr. So much for their performance kudos.

An EVO holds the record at Tsukuba.....by a decent amount too, but that said for every fast EVO there is a GTR that is close and visa versa at TS in recent years

I think Dollar for dollar they would be close enough for the driver to be the main difference!

I hear what you are saying Andy but imo the only thing that even puts the evo near the gtr is the fact that it is a a lightweight.

An Evo is as heavy as an R32GTR!

And Light is good :whistling:

But each to their own

Really tho. He sold the gtr for a reason to buy the evo. He needs to ask himself what that reason was. If it was 4 doors and a boot, then the gtr is a stupid option. If it was he just didnt like the gtr as much as the evo, same deal, buying a newer one wont change that.

I'd say stick with the evo.. but then again i know how much u love ur bloody gtr's :P haha just gotta keep in mind also that i KNOW u'll end up doing quite abit of mods if you decide to get the GTR (even though u say u wont :P hahaha).. the evo is has warranty for ages, power is fantastic.. it goes so beautifully around corners, low k's, almost brand new.. and im sure the re-sale value will hold alot more than the GTR, and best of all its sexy :):wub::thumbsup: hahahaha

but all in all, its ur money pumpkin and im sure u'll make the right decision :):santa:

squish this is for u! >_<:yes::(

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.

      Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.

      Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:

      Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
