evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

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

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

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

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

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

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

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

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

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

no doubt but dont you think the skyline is beast.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

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.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

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.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

oh ---- you know what , I think (I heard some where that a WRX actually is near 400 Hp. Is that true.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

Thanks alot brotha, I appreciate the imput.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

nope.. a WRX is 227hp but the STI version is 300hp w/ 300tq.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

By the way, are you running a boosted crx. whats your setup.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

nope, not boosted... check out my site for my car (its in the sig at the bottom)

d16a6, i/h/e, can, clutch, lightened flywheel. nothing special.. thinkin of makin a ls/vtec this winter though.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

It's an unwritten agreement between japanesse manufactures not to make a production rating of over 280hp this is for the rated power really a r34 skline is pushing a bout 350hp i saw a dyno chart for a stock r34 vspec 2 skyline from motorex the manufactures do this so insurence rates will stay low on there cars that is a big selling point over there

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

Example the new neon srt-4, rated at 215hp, dynoed at 225 to the wheels.

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
 

skyline = overrated

Re:evo 8 vs. a Skyline r34
