Evo X or 370Z???

DK417

I just bought a 2012 PW NISMO Z 6 Months ago and I just ordered a 2013 Evo X GSR fully loaded. BTW which fully loaded the interior is far superior to the z. Also I love the Z but I couldnt stand being without boost. I came to the conclusion that I thought i was going to mod my z but when looking at getting good power gains and i cant live without boost, I wasnt ready to drop 15g+ on a TT kit for my z. So I got the Evo x in wicked white on order with all options availiable for the same price as a nismo z. I am selling my z and couldnt be happier about the choice i made. I got comments on the z alot but i care more about my driving experience than what other ppl think of my car either way i still get from A-B fast.

The X is interior is garbage, the car is great.

Hes high for sure.

The x has recaros and thats it, but the dash and everythng else feels like playschool made it, so don't kid yourself. The Z's interior especially the touring is way ahead.

yea the seats are the only good thing about the interior of the evo. For stock seats they are the best in any car i've been in. As for the "cheap plastic interior" Im glad its cheap and plastic. If it wasnt, it would make the car heavier and slower.

I had an evo 8, i loved everything but the interior.

The recaros then were also the ****.

The evo interior is shared with the lancer, which costs about 20k so yeah.....

The X recaros however are killer seats. The amount of hold and support.

True Story, I had a Lancer Ralliart 05 and I swapped in the Recaro leathers, and whatever else I could from the EVO...If I had an EVO I would be pissed it was the same interior practically lol.

Ideal world you could have both

I persoanlly dont like the way the evo
Looks, i will go as far to say it is the ugliest car for sale today. Besides the freaky boxy angry taillight looks, its a excellent car that i would love to own. I guess im just really into astetic appeal, and not so much practicality/0-60 numbers. I like the way the evo 8 looks, i dont know what it is about the 10 it just makes me gag

I agree, they look like a catfish from the front. I preferred the 9 the best!

One is a sedan, the other is a sports car... they look and act the part so, they're easy to side with in a clear cut fashion; at least in my view.

Stock for stock the 370 is a bit faster. Interior wise Z is much better.

My friends have MODed evo 10's I have driven my friends new 2012 multiple time and honestly I expected so much more...I felt like I was sitting in a KIA, the gearbox isnt solid, the clutch is too soft...The end of the the day, if your looking for flat out performance and a track toy the get the X. If your all about numbers and you are going to blow lots of dough on performance mods the X is for you...

The Z is much more fun in the canyons even if your taking it easy...and comon we all know it just so much sexier than all these other sports cars we see on the street.

i agree and disagree on some points.

1. Evo is faster, hands down. Whether its drag, road or any other type of racing. Maybe if you are doing gay *** races from a roll that proves nothing...maybe the Z is faster. I raced my Z on both time attack and drag strip, same with my X and i got alot better times with the X. Even the specs of each car, the X comes out on top. Z is quoted what 13.8-13.6 on the 1/4 mile? Best i got with Stillen CAI was 13.8. The X is quoted at 13.5 and thats what i fit the day i bought the car, bone stock with 300kms on the odo.

2. The gearbox (GSR) personally i think its a POS. I hate the notch feeling, especially shifting to 3rd. My base, shifter cable and underhood bushings, along with my TWM shifter cage and MT-85 fluid made it abit better. But to make that feeling go away, i gotta send my transmission in to get rebuilt by a company (still depending if i want to since im already sending my tcase down to get rebuilt)

3. The clutch is really hit or miss, i like the feel alot more then the Z. The Z had alot of chatter and felt really loose. However, its also hit or miss how long the clutch lasts in the X. Mine lasted 14,000km before it started slipping. My buddies lasted 7,000km (both of us race). Others that dont beat on their cars lasted 60,000+km. Basically if you beat on the car at all, the clutch is gone, as where i found the Z's clutch was abit more forgiving.
