I have had two Evo's. A 600awhp 8, and a bone stock X. Loved the 8. Hated the X after a couple of days. They tried to refine the X, and just missed the mark in my opinion. They should have just left well enough alone. I never thought it was as fun to drive as the 8, even when the 8 was stock.

As far as reliability is concerned, you cannot go wrong with an Evo 8 or 9. Change the clutch, and just proceed to beating the crap out of it. I had over 300 1/4 mile passes, tons of pulls on the dyno, and several track days on mine, with zero issues after replacing the craptastic stock clutch. IMO the 4g63 is one of the most reliable motors on the planet.

With all of that said, I think once I am putting down 350-400 to the wheels in my 370, it will be my favorite ride ever! (including 2 evo's, 2 supra's, GTO, 350z, 300ztt, and about 15 more over the last 20 years...geez I'm getting old)
