But wait, I thought that defeated the point because then V-8 could eat it alive? :D

The Evo MR was just a little slower then the Lambo Gallado. Lets see a American v-8 do that for 33k from the dealership. Stock for stock Mitsu owns.

Stright line means nothing. Its so boring

The new Vette ate them both, and the lambo, on some popular track used for testing.

What track? Were? Proof?

Its pathetic that the Vette's price tag is much higher then the mitsu

Here is the post in the other thread.

I just did some research of my own....a stock C5 Vette (375hp...not the new 500hp monster) beat the Skyline at Nurburgring with time of 7.57 beating a slitghtly modified r34.
The Nurburgring is 14 miles long and has over 170 turns and many elevation changes.

The Vette handles a whole lot better at turns than you think. It did better on the g test.

Note the Vette difference too.

Bang for buck you cant Beat the Evo. Getting Lambo Like preformance out of a 4 banger for under 35k is amazing. How much does a z06 run agian?

Viper
07-23-2004, 04:57 AM
50-55k. Not much more than the EVO but far less than a lambo.

Hey Goku, I understand they kinda called you out for this thread but the F you's need to stop.

I'm just messing with him Viper. He knows that get's under my skin, as Subaru is my fine woman, and he's Mitsu's bitch.

Look how fugly the MR1 Evo is. I mean, damn, I know it performs well, but looks count for something! Same with most of Mitsu's cars. WTF were they thinking with the new Eclipse Model?

Now here, here is one fine looking lady. YOu have to romance her. 4 HP less doesn't mean shit, it's looks MORE than make up for that.

The MR1 looks better to me. Nicer looking grills, headlamps, hood...... but I prefer the body of a new Vette to both.

The Dude

I like the Evo's sexy Front Mount Itercooler, and the headlights look 100x better, plus the car is super light compared to the wr1. Looks mean little to me, Give me a sleeper anyday. I do agree that the vette looks better, but they are totaly diffrent cars. The Evo and WR1 are rally bread monsters, while the corvette is like fine wine.

If I want looks I'll take the old Evo 5

The hood on the EVO's blow. It's like a little slit on it, Subaru at least made theirs look like something instead uf cutting a hole in the middle.

It isn't that hard to move an intercooler anyway. Doesn't cost much $$$ either.

The Dude

That "little slit" is functional. Its a vent for the turbo. Turbos create insane amounts of heat, heat the intake and get detonation. Detonation = very bad.

Viper

The hood matches the grills on the Evo. The scoop on the Subaru looks so out of place, its sad. It doesn't even look stock, looks after market bolted on.

goku2057
07-24-2004, 05:06 AM
It is bolted on, and it is suppose to look aftermarket. Like the Spoiler.


Notice how the MR's spoiler looks suspiciously like the STi one. Coincidence? I think not!

Cobra SVT mean anything to you?


390 HP Stock, and it handles like a dream.

Muahahah! Go Mitsi!

Although I love Scoobies just as much, I'm a biased Mitsi owner.....

Plus Evo's are way more rare in Oz, opposed to STi's which are everywhere....Evo's are a bit more special in that sense.

Thanks for the MR wallpaper Goku. :p
