Does any one think an Evo 8 will beat a Skyline R34

88crxSi

all stock? i'd put my money on the evo.

but add $5k worth of upgrades and skyline hands down.

I put my money on the skyline, its a beast.
the RB26dett motor is an animal

88crxSi

yes but its only rated at 280 from the factory.. thats why I said stock vs stock evo, but 5k modified skyline for sure

no doubt but dont you think the skyline is beast.

88crxSi

definately... bulletproof motor.. but both are rated at 280hp. (271 evo, wise asses out there) but the skyline is MUCH heavier.

but some computer tweaks yeild 100+hp on a gt-r.

Thats just how the japenesse to things. It's an unwritten agreement between japanesse manufactures not to make a production rating of over 280hp. (or atleast it used to be that way). Even tho changing some computer numbers free's up alot of hp.

I am having a discussion with some of my fiends from college and they asked me wwhich one is better.So I figured that I would ask someone from the forum.

88crxSi

well my friend better and faster are two different things.. for a better comparison I'd take the skyline just because its a skyline... faster, ,stock, Evo.
