That's awesome. I was trying to find an Evo X up here before I opted for something in RWD. It looks great.

Evo X GSR
Quote:
I am curious to see what Subaru does w/ the whole new design WRX/STi to come, since it won't be based on Impreza based. Drive an Evo , you will notice how much sharper/crisper it feels over WRX/STi steering, boost spools much sooner too! Thanks for compliments Guys, I am Loving it and looking fwd to 2013 Autocross season ahead for the 1st time in Autocross I took 1st last 5 events and helped me get bumped up to 3rd place overall for the year. Going to B-Stock will def be more competitive and shall be a fun season W/ Awd+Boost combo !! I don't see being floored in the Evo quite nearly as much as I was in the FR-S, but that's what made FR-S soo user friendly to race because you weren't going Insanely too fast through the track and didn't have to brake too much, Shall be whole new ballgame / driving style in the Evo GSR

@MarkRacerX
how would you compare your 135i vs evo vs FRS just curious because those are the ones i had to choose from and i steered away from the 135 cuz the n54 had that fuel pump problem that just killed it for me and the evo just isnt never really struck me as something i wanted UNTIL i drove it. |

X didn't come with a 6 speed because the 6 speed tranny was garbage compared to the 5 speed.

Congratulations though, you will enjoy the X. You're right about the Evo's steering, it's amazingly perfect. Enjoy it! |

Yeah def feels tall in comparison, hoping the Springs / alignment / Rear sway bar is big difference.
What mods did you have for 350whp? So far I have ETS intake / Testpipe, English Racing tune in couple weeks. Thank you!!

The suspension bits will definitely help with that feeling, but I was slammed on coilovers and the car still felt too big. At the same time, I'm not very tall myself, so maybe that had something to do with it. I had it for 3 years, and had an VIII before that. Love Evo's, very fun to drive.
I got my 350whp/360wtq from ETS intake, UICP, FMIC, bov, test pipe, catback, 3-port, and custom 93oct tune. I think I could have made close to the same power with just a drop in, test pipe, 3-port, and tune. |
