The good

- it's nippy

- handles and brakes amazingly

- much more fun at the track without overheating or some shit

- smaller doors (good for parking)

- massive boot (for tools and jerrycans)

- seats are better

- has mivec

- spend less money getting to 300kw (excluding strengthening driveline)

- car is easier to work on (feels like everything was design for the intention to be worked on in a hurry)

The bad

- It's slow (GTR was quick up top)

- turning circle can ead

- gearbox and tranny are weak

- it's a lancer

- evo forum sucks and most evo drivers are a bit different

All in all, I'm enjoying the evo a lot more than the GTR. But I do miss the ability to just blast past any car coz street warrior.

Good run down and very telling that all in all you're enjoying this more.

Lets see how slow it feels once you've E85'd it etc.

What do you mean by Evo drivers being a bit "different"?

Also "It's a Lancer"? A GT-R is just a Skyline too.

Lol a lancer is still less flattering than a skyline.

Most evo drivers look at things differently. I can't describe it lol. They attract a different demographic.

needs more poke

can fit 18x.9.5 +22 good stance

if won't fit, run stretched

get 272 cams for braps

why don't you set up launch control

^ EVO forums :)

Nothing I haven't seen here more or less.

I've seen much worse on NS.com lol

NS.com, late 2000s to early 2010s, mass stance/low/moar low/poke/stretch/pipe roll fap circlejerk

everyone was a suspension, camber, offset and photography expert, building cars around their wheels and ganging up on anyone who didn't meet their wheel fitment requirements and dared to post a pic of their car in the stance thread

Some of that still exists.

My no f**ks given budget CA track car build is in the motorsport section though, much safer in there.

but you get dick heads telling you to throw the viscous diff into the bin and replace it with a S15 Helical Diff LOL

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
