Once modded not even a contest. Evo hands down, without a question. You doubt it? May want to look harder into it.

Look at it like this... XTREMEBOOST had a full bolt on evo X (thats no tune / no fuel upgrades / no meth etc) that ran 11.9

You will need to be FI w/ about 15k in your car to be able to run that time... Goodluck

If he is stock it will be a drivers race - but he has his AWD launch which is awesome...

so here are your options:

If the Evo is stock - if you get a good launch your nismo will be ok (still close)
if he is modded at all - no hope at all for the Z

But if you were to open a 1/2 mile drag strip - your stock Z will destroy the Evo... they suck at putting power down up top.. and the run out of juice quickly - but when they have juice - you just cant eff w/ em...
Well said

Plain and simple, if you bring modding into the game it's not a drivers race, it's not really even a race. The Evo has launch control, AWD, and is more responsive to mods. Multiple 8 and 9 second 1/4 mile Evo's out there. It's easy to make a 10 second stock block Evo these days. If you want a drivers race do a fully built Z with TT vs a lightly modded Evo.
