Oh siet, congrats you've moved from 80s tech to 00s tech.

You've seen the light, all us RB owners are still blinded by darkness.

(Better go mafless flex setup on stock ecu so you can run dose pipe, yes for the haters stock E9 ecu does flex, mafless, has launch and anti lag)

I really struggled to not buy an EvoX when I was buying the R, such a good package.

I think plenty of us realise the Evo is a better platform in many ways, but there is something special about a GTR still. Yea i realise that's subjective also, for me it was almost purely looks.

Thay said, I am toying with the idea of ditching my Silvia for an Evo track car...

Anyway, this car is going to be awesome.

Cbf scrolling back, when were you tracking it again?

Also I didn't realise a stock Evo ecu did flex, that's amazing.

You can't deny EVOs are light years ahead of the R32/33/34 in terms of performance.

They thought of twin scroll back in mid 90s, where as Nissan continued to use twin turbos which have been proven over and over again how inefficient it can be, imagine if Nissan ever released a factory twin scroll single turbo GT-R.

Because Nissan loves their open scroll turbos in twin forms so much they avoided the obvious twin scroll solution and made the VR38DETT motor LOL

Now that Nissan partially owns Mitsubishi.. I wonder if there will ever be an Evolution Skyline LOL

I don't think you can shit can an entire engine because of the turbos it uses.

I don't think any of us are under any illusions that there's much newer/better tech.

Had I went with my head, I'd have bought an Evo/M3 or a 35 maybe.

I think many of us buy older GT-Rs because the little boy inside us hasn't grown up yet.

I like Evo's, but I don't get a mental boner when I look at them, even a nicely done one. I still grin like an autistic kid when I pull the cover of my 34.

Who cares though, This thread is all about Evo 9 now, more boost plz :D

    • Hard to find reliable dyno results that help my selection   Thinking G30- 660 twin scroll 1.06   Problem is my current setup isn't imo terrible. This is the genuine flog it at the track tune so there is a few kws in it but pulled for track safety   Non VCT RB25DE home built and has baby 256 Poncams, 60mm throttle body. 90mm exhaust and decent ARC cooler with Emtron KV8 Would like to break 400rwkws on 20psi and want a bit more through the 4,000rpm range. New setup needs to beat attached dyno
    • Hey y'all, had some bad ball joints in my tie rods, so figured i'd just replace both inners and outers.  Went with the high-misalignment system from GKTech. My car's lowered so figured why not. M14 Super Adjustable Inner Tie Rod High misalignment S13 240sx/S14/S15/Skyline tie rod ends (12mm/14mm) Welp, took over a week to get the job done, but finally did. Took it on the maiden voyage today and... - The OE boots do not sit properly on the new inner tie rods - If you look at the photo in the link above, new ITRs are basically threaded all the way through the length of them, so best I could do was tighten the boot down with a screw-down hose clamp onto the ITR's threads. - There is a "whoosh"ing sound every time I turn the steering, seems like it could be coming from the air moving into/out of boots. Concerning, bc it'll likely pull in nasty shit from the outside when I turn... namely thinking of moisture. - Looking at the rack from the back of the car, under it, the left tie rod is straighter than the right. Right droops down a bit. - My alignment is way outta wack, that's expected. Taking it to get an alignment as soon as I can. - The big thing is that the steering isn't really "springing" back like it used to. Wondering if there's something tied to pressurization of the system that I managed to f**k up. This was supposed to be a 20 min job... why doesn't anything ever go right with these cars?
