Was just on the mazda website and the rx8 seems to have quite a lot more features than evo 9...eg. leather seats, 9 speaker Bose sound system, Xenon headlights. But evo definitely more torque and power.

If your worried about that.

The Liberty Has something like an 11 or 13 Bose sound system.

Leather seats

Electric seats

With 180KW

Comfortable 4 door

Quite luxurious

6 speed man

And a cool computer that tells you how many L/100km you currently doing.. Injectors/pump max out at 55L/100km.. just so you know.. :yes:

BTW:scandyflick, Your sig is funny.. I lol'ed.. but its also 2 in the morning..

no self respecting dentist drives a japanese car, unless its a Lexus (genuine too, none of this Toyota Soarer rebadged crap). euro all the way dude... Audi it up.

the "fun to drive" choice out of all that is the Evo... but I'd still get the Audi over it.

keep the skyline, take the money and use it as a deposit for a house

You already have a nice car. Buy a house.

Think long term success not short term thrills. In 5 years time when you get equity on your new property, you will be able to buy the new GTR that will crap all over the current list of cars you are looking at. Be patient with money and use your brains to invest now and reap rewards later.

Dont be like 99% of other young guys spending all they have on flashy cars when they are young. 99% of guys mess up financially early on so they end up never owning any exotics (Ferraris, Lambos, new GTR etc)

You are getting 70 K for FREE, invest it wisely!!

The choice is yours.

I just called mitsubishi and they have confirmed the price for the evo 10.

Only 3 variants will be available, GSR 5 speed ($59000), GSR semi-auto (64000), MR semi-auto (74000).

Cars will be ready around april 2008.

So now, I have to choose manual or semi-auto.

Thanks for the input guys!

It did not come up, but the Mazda 6 MPS with leather pack is a fun car to drive with all the extra's, and it's quicker with 4wd than many other cars. It's no evo but as a everyday car for the executive with possible family on the way, it's a good choice.

Please drive an EVO before you buy one. I did and the V-spec GTR had a much smoother ride.

Dont get married, over 50% of marriages end up in divorce! Kiss half of your car good bye when she says "laters" :D

Great choice EVOX( was not on your list though) :) ......go GSR five speed for fun...unless you have to drive around the city all day.

X would be worth the wait....be patient.

If I was given this..a GTR34 would be my first choice....will hold its value and chick magnet appeal.... :laughing-smiley-014:

Not that I need that with my good looks...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?
