STOCK CARS
"But the GT-R is a big thing, with 477bhp to misuse, and it soon becomes clear that on the right sort of road, an Evo at full bore will have the upper hand over a GT-R at more like half."
Source is TopGear.
And im not downing the HR, I like it. I just had a problem with people bashing me for no reason. Oh well, to each his own. Two good cars in my own opinion, so whats the problem with everyone?
I think everyone forgets I owned a supercharged Z for years, Im a fan of the Z just as much as the Evo's.

And alberto, give me about 8-10 months for parts to come out,and ill be happy to race you or whoever in REAL life, not "mag-race" on the 1/4 track and twisty track
Thats if you dont blow another tranny by then
j/k
The HR aint that fast s your making it out to be geez, didnt know the HR was GOD around the forums...
And BTW, you should read the article that track and road tested the new EVO X vs. US Nissan GT-R (not a HR Z). To sum it up, the X stayed almost even with it the entire time.

I mentioned in my first post the type of people that drive them, and the attitudes they usually have-that of "my car with just XXX can run XXX, and I only spent XXX" is EXACTLY what you already have and have proven time and time again-you are the reason I would never drive one, or even an STi. You come into the forums and state false things (like an X will beat an HR down the 1/4 STOCK), and you return to your SRT-4 owner/immature mentality when proven and told otherwise by people that actually know that cars can run faster than mag times.
I also never said the HR is fast, fast is relative what is fast to you is weaksauce to me, and what is fast to me is weaksauce to the TT Viper owner-get my point? What is TRUE is that down the 1320 or highway STOCK for STOCk the HR will stomp the Evo, live with it. Im WELL aware the capabilities of the car mod'd....
EDIT-Im not a fan of the GTR but you need to realize one thing. On a super tight course, like an Auto-X I wouldnt doubt an X could beat a GTR. On most road course no chance in hell-hence why the article states "that on the right sort of road" but you likely didnt know what that meant. Also realize a Miata could beat an X on a tight course, so what? You get the award for most magazine references in an (un)intelligent argument ever, talk to me from experience not some overweight non driving editors words and opinions.

Alberto]Your taking this out of context. Im not saying X's are garbage, or that yours is slow, or that I would beat you (cuz I would rape you in reverse with a busted tranny), thats not the point here.
Ive seen you drag race(if thats what you call it), not impressed by you almost hitting the wall 2 times and losing control in every gear. With the amount of money you put in that Z, you should be in the 9's (11.1 is weaksauce after all the money you have spent)
And mentality? Go back to the beginning of this thread, A 350Z OWNER was the one who started talking trash first. So that just makes what you said, complete Bullsh*t if you ask me.... And YOU prove that Nissan 350Z owners think there car is a ferrari and so "upper class" haha please wake up.
But to go back to my point, Please go back and read who started talking trash first. A 350Z OWNER......

Okay so lets see... I'm assuming the X is running low 13s stock. That is no where nearly even REMOTELY close to the 11.5-11.7 GT-Rs have been getting
As alberto said, on the "right" course it could definitely give it a run but hell... there are Miatas that are slower in the 1/4 but kill me in an autox. Things would change on a high speed road course.
This dude is crackin' me up

Hey diggity douche, the article was about twisty courses, not 1/4 mile time, no crap the GT-R stock will beat mine stock 1/4. The "right" course? haha, forgot they made specially designed courses for each model car.

Remind us again how stellar your times were in the Z? Thats right they were garbage, but having AWD and a turbo and because a good driver online ran 12.5 with just a MBC you can do it too right? When did I say a Z was upper class? One Z owner (not me) picking on you was all we needed for you to embrace us with your exceptional mag racing skills....btw how do you know how much $$$ I spent on my car? Or are you just assuming its $XX,XXX like you assume you can suddenly drag race due to AWD?

Almost as pointless to blurt out your car will beat this car and you don't really have a clue

And BBOY, your going to say I give evo owners a bad name when berto and others have already stated that EVO owners are punks and thats why they would never drive one? So what does that make you? All i did was stick up for the evo, oh well, talk more trash if you want, lets hear it

Grow some nuts and do $hit on your own. Stop telling me about magazines I can read, dont compare my car to another I could care less, and dont challenge me to a pinks race when you cant drive, have a stock car, and have a lot to learn
