    Probably the Evo, the Nismo is a bit too heavy and the Lancer probably has better handling of the two.

    fair enough
    i'll still win a drag race tho, because you'll stall the evo when trying to take off hard

    Seems Mitsubishi forgot about a small thing called "Turbo Lag" when they stuck a tremendously large turbo and alot of boost on a normal Evo. So i'll take the Z-tune.

    When you have turbo lag problems, just yell "NaWZzz!" and problem's solved.

    Only if you're: "Granny shiftin' not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake! Now me and the mad scientist gotta rip apart the block, and replace the piston rings you fried."

    Even though the Evo says "Hey watch me have a mid life crisis" i'd still choose it over the R34.
