Mistubishi EVO vs 370Z

EVO_Killer · 08-06-2009, 07:37 AM

Of course the Lancer Evo comes in a manual.....The 5 speed manual is the EVO GSR. Same engine and everthing just no twin clutch.

Yeah ditto. Unless you want the leather, sst(six speed,fast shifting,can't drive a stick and good for traffic) and the rims which is the only diff between the MR and the GSR. Most evo tuner and mod freaks prefer the GSR bec of the stronger 5 speed.

Problem with your opinion, Armen, is its based off junk you don't understand.

Don't come to a debate if you don't even understand the vehicles you're debating. Seriously? Evo's are Auto-only, now?
Now that you're knowledge about an Evo's handling has been proven far inferior, you're back peddling right into the, "Well, at least the 370 LOOKS better" angle. So if RWD is superior than AWD, then FWD should be horrible, right? How did a FWD Cobalt kick some Ralliart/WRX ***? Better yet, how did the Cobalt SS/TC do so well in Car and Drivers 2008 Lightning lap? It almost beat every single car that was in the next class ABOVE it! All in the far "inferior" FWD.

The long and short of all this is, there far more that goes into a car than you understand. Its not always about the drive line configuration and nothing but. You barely know how to drive stick and you think you can make claims like yours?

when i said that the evo x is auto i was talking about the mr not the gsr. if you know so much about the evo then you should have realized that

travisjb thanks... not trying to lecture, some insightful points being made and I love learning about the evo... and ryan's car is BAD-***!... but also want to know about lance's build!

Thanks Dude!

Ryans car is super bad @ss!!!! Maybe he'll give me a Killer deal on some Volk RE30 in Machine Black.

Just picked up some HKS hipermax III Coil Overs and the coolest toy ever. A Magden M1.b Performance Computer!!! Its keeps track of dynamic horsepower, engine temps, and all other kinds of cool sh*t. It was featured in the new Fast & Furious movie. Steven at Ampliified hooked me up!!! (Thanks again Dude!!) I can't wait for delivery and install. I will get some pics asap.

Dude, seriously? Lol. How's someone going to assume you meant *only* the MR when you make a blanket statement like "Evo Xs only come in auto".. Huh? Where is that telling me or anybody else you meant only MR models?

Just stop digging the hole deeper, we're all mostly adults around here; man up, admit you didn't bring enough facts to this debate and we'll respect you for admitting so.

But to keep my post on topic, nice car OP!

well if you think about the statement "the evo x doesnt even come in stick" and you ask your self why would someone say that you should come to a conclusion that i must be talking about the mr.

im also wondering how much RWHP does the op's 370 have as of now

EVO_Killer · 08-09-2009, 05:50 PM

I also want to know....

After I get my Berk HFC's on I want to get a tune and dyno.

I wonder what my Magden Performance Computer will clock my cars dynamic horsepower at??? Waiting to hear back from Steven at Amplified on when they're coming.

I'm trying not to get involved in this again, but you're making it hard. Don't make posts that you ASSUME others will interpret the same way as you . It was a post that included inaccurate information and you got called out on it. Nobody would assume that you were talking about the MR only. The obvious and logical response is going to be to assume that you don't know what you are talking about.

Ask myself why someone would say that? I'd think because they have absolutely no clue what they're talking about.

Do you realize how stupid this statement sounds? I mean seriously, WTF are we, mind readers?

What if I said "the 370Z only comes in auto"... what would YOU assume?

Nice try at trying to blame everyone else for your lack of knowledge.

epic fial
