XKLABA Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 This is tough, I'm die hard GTR fan but even I would contemplate the EVO VII as real compition for best bang for buck and if my near stock 32 hadn't already run 11.1 I just might have voted EVO Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/461165-what-is-the-better-car-evo-7-or-r32-gtr-poll/#findComment-7641114 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PranK Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Some more questions to cloud the question. What if you're drunk and your mates gotta drive? Evo wins that battle I reckon. None of my mates could hill start my GTR. (My wife could though, she drove it better than most of my friends.) What if you have kids? (And the kids have legs) What if you live in a snowy area? All those questions aside, what if you have style.

niZmO_Man Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 A mate of mine has an Evo7, coming from Hondas (DC2R, S2000), he also had an S14.

PranK Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Well, this is compelling. The arguments (and poll) appear to be clearly one-sided. Its turning into a little bit of an embarrassment (if i'm honest).

niZmO_Man Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I should add, he did pick up a shitter R32 VSpec2, but didn't have the money to fix it up at the time, so sold it cheaply. Still, for an all-rounder, the Evo is better. I'd still choose the GT-R life because I always wanted one, from seeing a silver R33 GT-R at Oran Park in 1997 when I was single digit, to Gran Turismo and Bathurst/ATCC VHS tapes my dad has. And probably because I have daily lol. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/461165-what-is-the-better-car-evo-7-or-r32-gtr-poll/#findComment-7641349 Share on other sites More sharing options...

djvoodoo Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Previous to my R, i owned an Evo 7. Bloody 23 pounds of boost and all i managed was 200awkw. The Recaros are pretty average in them TBH, and weren't that comfortable. The side bolsters are not 1 piece, so the stitching wears real easy. Understeerd alot more than the heavier R, and was boring after 1 year of ownership. 45?? L tank and I got 350km at most.

GTR-N1 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 My VIII MR felt so agile, responsive, chuckable and obviously modern. But the quality of manufacture and attention to detail just doesn't stack up against my BNR32. Sure the Supra 2JZ has stronger pistons, conrods etc,... But the upgradability of the RB26 is absolutely remarkable. Oh yes, I forgot to add that my 8MR cam belt broke and the Recaro plastic support also broke.

BakemonoRicer Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I have been in both and the R32 GTR feels & sounds a lot more special. my cousin had built one with built motor & upgraded twins in 2004-2005 and I was completely blown away when he took me for a drive in it. it feels special whereas the evo doesn't. the evo is a bit more sterile....

I voted for the GTR for the same reason. Having owned a modified EVO TME and now a modified GTR, I prefer the GTR. The GTR has a 'soul' and a special feel about it that no other car I have owned seems to have. Difficult to describe. But I am sure any GTR owner will agree. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/461165-what-is-the-better-car-evo-7-or-r32-gtr-poll/#findComment-7641943 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Better is such a broad term - really need to define what variable one car is going to be better at. If chasing a broad variable I'd probably go for length of ownership as a good judge of what makes people favour one over the other. My experience is that people tend to buy Evos, have a lot of quick fun and get over them / sell within a year of buying. No one seems to hold them for a long time - maybe they don't inspire the same passion Skylines do. 32 GTR owners seem to hang onto them for years - however, I'm unsure if this is a true love / can't let you go thing, or born out of necessity...given most 32Rs spend more time in a state of repair than being driven haha 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/461165-what-is-the-better-car-evo-7-or-r32-gtr-poll/#findComment-7642000 Share on other sites More sharing options...
