I wanted to do computer software engineering through high school but got bored with programming for reasons unknown to me. now i am doing computer hardware engineering. should be alot of fun. Ill get a metro and drive that around. that way no one will try to race me like if I had any of the cars mentioned here! |

mm...get some NISMO goods. hehe. nice Z man...i love that car..although i'd rather have the G35 myself..nice car ! and awsome colour ! I LOVVE black |
I hate you |

Colorado is a great state for some awesome shots!!! I've been somewhat busy modding wise. Trying to do all the cheaper, supporting mods to get ready for the TT kit. I did have high plans/goals for the Evo but that feel threw when the Evo fell apart. The Z is very much more fun to drive. Yes its a bit slower, especaily at elevation, but still gets up and goes. The Z (rwd) makes you work driving it vs the Evo (awd) did the work for you. Plus no turbo lag with the Z. The Evo fairly large turbo sucked at low RPMs. I love not having to rev the engine to 3k rpm to get going from a stop light/sign. The N/A 3.5l instant 274 (stock) torque really get you up and going.

Re: Traded my Evo for... Thanks!!! BTW: If you had the problems I had with mine you would. Refer to earlier post for a list of problems. |
Re: Traded my Evo for... it does? everyone i know with one says its in the shop more than in their garage.something goes wrong on a weekly basis almost. oh and if you have ideas about actually racing or driving it fast, youre really gonna be in trouble. |
Re: Traded my Evo for... Should of traded the Evo for an STi. They dont break as much as Mitsu's. lol |
Re: Traded my Evo for... Very nice.. but, Nismo Horns? |
Re: Traded my Evo for... well when it comes down to autox or road racing. a z can be very much comparible to an evo8. but probably not as good. but still a good z driver can be just as good as a evo. so saying stuff about performance really depends. and noticing that robert does some autox, it wouldnt really depend on straight aways. yaknowadimeann |
Re: Traded my Evo for... it does? everyone i know with one says its in the shop more than in their garage.something goes wrong on a weekly basis almost. oh and if you have ideas about actually racing or driving it fast, youre really gonna be in trouble. if Mitsubishi knows that their Evo's break down and start "sucking", then WHY sell them for SUCH high prices?:screwy: I thought about getting the Z before i got my Si but I just couldn't leave HONDA...just couldn't:shrug: |
Re: Traded my Evo for... well, the whole point of the car is for people who want to use it. nobody buys an evo and drives it like a civic. it had the potential to be a great car, they just didnt put enough thought into it and used alot of cheap parts. they sell them for hi prices because people dont know any better. and the tuners that are serious about em end up replacing most of the factory parts anyway. |
