hi all,just wondering which car would be better......

in terms of speed,handling, fuel consumption etc.

ive been thinking of buying a EVO 6 and ive found one on the net for $23,000 but are they superior to a stock R33?

if it aint then i will stick with my skyline but lately i want a car with more room and 4 doors.

your thoughts?

I have always found that stock for stock, Evos are always better by alot, fuel consumption im not that concerned about so I dont know....

although, if u spent that money on ur skyline, it would be way better then any stock evo.

personally, I think the 33 skyline looks alot better then an evo 6....

The Evo would smash it, even before you hit the first corner. Sorry, but it's true.

Yeah dude....

why do you even BOTHER comparing the 2......

R33 GTS-t is not even in the same class of car.....

a better comparison would be R33 GT-R

your comparison is like saying a Ford Falcon FG vs Holden Clubsport GTS VE...

a low end ford vs a high end holden....

don't forget, the EVO 6 has always revolutionised the motor world through its years.... the R33 GTS25t has not had any where near that kind of reputation.

Or better yet an EVO 6.5 Tommi Makinen Edition (TME).

Best of the Best out of all EVO's... BUT... Even better, a EVO VIII FQ400.

Speed = They can be crazy around the track with the right tuning (But thats with every car) Stock for Stock, EVO wins.

Handling = 4WD + Snow/Tarmac/Gravel Settings vs RWD + HICAS and Active LSD.

Fuel Consumption = 2lt Inline 4, 16 Valves, DOHC, Turbo vs 2.5lt Inline 6, 24 Valves, DOHC, Turbo.

Already it has less 2 cylinders and over all smaller engine but still packs a mighty punch! To give a thrill of a ride.

im a former evo owner and a GTR owner..

stock vs stock

the evo will munch the GTST and some more..

handling wise the evo is up there with some of the worlds best handling cars

i ran 1min 11's at wakefield with my nearly stock evo 8 and that was my first time out as well on the track

straight line the evo will much it hard again

brakes are even better and bigger than the brembos found on the R34 gtr

fuel consumtion is significantly better than the gtst

on a 55L tank i usually did around 450 or less with a mix of highway and city driving

the evo is just an awsome all round package sorry to say but the GTST will never come close in anything that u compare the two against

a GTR wil be a closer match

:)

LOL!

You really hate R33 GTS-T's and Automatic cars, don't you...

yeah, not a big fan of the GTS-T or GT-T or even GST.. lol

automatic?........nothing wrong with automatic dude. The world is turning towards automatic Sports shifter...

Ah whops!

I think it was someone else with a R34 GTR who did not like Auto cars...

I take that back! :D

nah it probably was the thread you wrote.

regarding R34 GT-T auto

some people on here think if a car is auto thats a sports car...its wrong.

which is a load of shit.

why else would they make R35 GT-R only available in sports shift auto

all good champ

Hehe!!

All good man!

You'll realise why when you advertise it.

and it's still advertised 7 months later.

yeah i know what you mean,but i already have the money saved up for the EVO i just have to get rid of the skyline cause i have no need for 2 turbo charged cars.

when it does eventually get sold.....if it does the extra cash will do for something,i just don't know what.

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
