Are you joking me? an evo + 1k = goodbye Z... no joke ... my evo X with the normal stage 1 cobb map w/ a cobb AP would destroy my Z and your nismo... Those things respond so well to boltons its not even funny...

Look at it like this... XTREMEBOOST had a full bolt on evo X (thats no tune / no fuel upgrades / no meth etc) that ran 11.9

You will need to be FI w/ about 15k in your car to be able to run that time... Goodluck

If he is stock it will be a drivers race - but he has his AWD launch which is awesome...

so here are your options:

If the Evo is stock - if you get a good launch your nismo will be ok (still close)
if he is modded at all - no hope at all for the Z

But if you were to open a 1/2 mile drag strip - your stock Z will destroy the Evo... they suck at putting power down up top.. and the run out of juice quickly - but when they have juice - you just cant eff w/ em...

Spank? Evidently your friend is misinformed. Similar 0-60 times/Quarter mile times w/ a base Z, depending on how good a driver you are, you "should" take this one. Direct him to the new issue of DSport, the base Z put down better times than both the EVO and STI. Also while your at it, tell him to take his matchbox rally car back and get something that men drive, not a zit faced teenager drivin, turbo'ed family car.

Once modded not even a contest. Evo hands down, without a question. You doubt it? May want to look harder into it.

Plain and simple, if you bring modding into the game it's not a drivers race, it's not really even a race. The Evo has launch control, AWD, and is more responsive to mods. Multiple 8 and 9 second 1/4 mile Evo's out there. It's easy to make a 10 second stock block Evo these days. If you want a drivers race do a fully built Z with TT vs a lightly modded Evo.

But we are not talking about modding Ryan, stock v. stock.
This is why I hate threads like this, well I can add this mod v. you and win, but if you add this mod you will win. That is great, but stock v. stock it is a drivers race, mostly.

You're misreading the opening post. This is not a stock vs stock comparison. This is a modded vs modded comparison. Way to stereotype the Evo drivers. Call it what you want, but the average "matchbox rally family car" will outrun and outcorner you. They are capable of much more than you would assume they are. I think you would also find that Evo drivers are just like the Z drivers. Same age range, maturity, and love for cars. I hate to see anyone stereotyping an entire community like that.

Lol its funny but its also true - There are plenty of Xs in the 12s who have a turbo back + FMIC + tune ... thats what - 1000 + 500 + 500 (labor) + 1000 (MAX) for the tune ... so for 3k you could have a low 12s evo ... but you could hope he fries his clutch if its stock and then you would totally win

You buy a Z not to drag race out of the box.. you buy a Z to drive it and be one w/ the road and car - something that a lot of modern AWD cars dont do as well (at least for me)... Stock for stock means nothing as almost NO ONE will buy an evo and leave it stock... and you would be silly to TT your nismo Z... cus you could have just gotten the base one to TT...

Unless you are spending 15K + on a Z ... an evo w/ about 3k in it will WALK all over you... sorry but this is VERY true...

I may be misreading the opening post. I assumed him referring to engines broken in he meant modded, not through the break-in time period. I don't see why anyone would take it to the drag strip without a proper break-in. I may just be a bit confused here. If we are comparing stock vs stock then disregard my comments as they only apply to modded vs modded.

Again, stock v. stock, please stop this well I can add 3k worth of mods. That is great, I know an Evo responds well to mods, but lets talk stock v. stock.
