Its so sad how you can tell quickly who actually researches(Or thru experience) and knows what their talking about, vs people who ask on a forum and use that info as if its the truth.

Wait, you said you weren't comparing it to the Z?

let me be neutral, first of all an evo x will beat any z on a strip (stock for stock)
That looks to me like you just compared it to EVERY Z.

Where I'm getting the Evo IX comment from is the fact that you THINK the Evo X can beat a 350Z down the 1/4 (otherwise referred to as "the strip" to 99% of auto enthusiasts) when in fact it hasn't ran faster/quicker than a same-year 350Z. The only possible way someone can come to that conclusion is by basing the 1/4 performance of the X to the IX (since the IX does smoke the 350Z down the 1/4).

No **** it's gonna launch harder/run a better 60' than the Z... advantages of AWD. After that, the sorry stock tune holds the X back, along with it's porky-ass 3500lbs it's gotta lug around.

Real world results>crappy magazine results.

next time my car comes up in conversation.. can someone tell me?

i'd hate them to use the USCC results to reason why the Z sucks.

C'mon bboypuertorico tell those ignorant idiots to face the facts..

No matter how you compare it..

Z looks > evo looks
Z performs > evo performs
Z coupe > evo grocery-getter
Z VQ > evo 4 banger with snail

Z >>>>>>>> evo

No offense to evo drivers. But they keep bringing up the same lame argument saying that if you add "blah blah" modification it will outrun the Z..

STFU If I start spraying my HR I will f*cking murder your evo..

Come on now... most of what you say is opinion.

Looks are subjective. I personally think the Evo is hot, and a lot of people think it's hotter than the Z.

There's nothing wrong with a 4-door, and for most people, it's the best option.

The 4G63 is one of the (if not THE best) 4 bangers on the planet. The thing can rev through the roof. It's more than proven itself in all aspects of motorsports. It is in fact MUCH more proven than the VQ blocks. And as of now, the 4B11 is more than proving itself as well.

Oh, go ahead and spray your HR... you can try keeping up with my little turbo 4-banger

Hate to bring it to you Tony but the K20 is the best I4 known to man. Legend says that the intake manifold is coated with the snow of Mount Olympus... yeah, Zeus' fap juice.

in the unholy streets of ny the number of fast/quick evos vs other make & models are 10 to 1.. i assume its like this all over ? how the hell do you guys on spray or fied on stock block hr or not even hang with these "4dr grocery getters?" haha maby my experince are not the norm? i for 1 love the looks of evo 8's and 9s the X look ok but not as good as the older ones similar to my opinions on the 350 and 370 haha old one looks better imo.

The K20 is NOT a 4 banger. It's a 4 cylinder V16.

To be honest, I think a lot of previous Mitsu owners have graduated on to a Z or other Nissan.

Over at www.club3g.com we sometimes joke and call it club350z ect. Due to the overwhelming amount of people that move on from the slow 3g to a z.

alot of 350z owners have graduated to Evos. so why don't you stop being stupid.


also, I am surprised that EvoM is having a bench racing cream fest. I guess it is to be expected (it is going to infest this site as well) and all these 'omg check out other car forums saying things about the z'.

I love the evo 9 (not the x... at all really). sexy ass car.

^ I agree (I'm an example). Although I think of them as sideways moves between each other.

BTW, for some reason, EvoM has been like that recently.
