I love both cars, and to be honest the front of the Evo X reminds me of the front of an R34 GTR.

GTR looks good BUT i would never buy one just because i don't think its worth it for the money they ask for and i have not heard any good things about the cars trans either or its super expensive oil change. Buy an Evo drop the rest of the money in it and the GTR will never be even close...my .02 cents

Add that to an already expensive car and you're getting into super car territory. For a fraction of the price the Evo X is a damn good competitor that wins on the skid pad (not by much though). Dump another $5k into the evo x, and you have a car the GT-R will have issues keeping up with.

Why have they been voiding warranties? From mods? I would hate to fall into that category. 20 grand for a tranny is nucking futs!!!

The way it was explained to me... they are voiding warranties on 2 different counts.

a) from mods
b) The car isn't fully enabled when you get it from Nissan. You have to go through the computer to enable "Racing Mode". Which sets a trigger in the ECU. When you enable this, the screen tells you it's not safe to race, etc. But isn't very clear on voiding your warranty. Also it tracks where the car has been. So they can tell via GPS history if the car has been to a track or not. Pretty clever.

No. Just no.

If that Evo were lowered, had awesome wheels/offset, and a nice lip/body kit then it'd look just as good as that GT-R.

That's a pretty long list there Mr Stix... I'm working on all of that though. Tires, clutch, then suspension. When it comes to wheels I'm looking at a set of Enkei Rpf-1's possibly. Lip kit/ body kit... meh, not so much into that as I am the go fast goodies...

No? FP Red + Turbo Back + Intake + Injectors + Hard Pipes + Intercooler + tune == way less than $5k and about 420whp. That's about where the GT-R is, while the Evo X has about the same handling and weighs almost 400lbs less. Please explain how this doesn't compute.
