EVO
Oh yes, Missed something out..
I have seen so called official figures of around 11 seconds for the EVO 6 in its 100mph sprint. Yet so many independant reviews get figures that they consider disappointing of closer to 13secs. (not that I am saying this is disappointing).
Brings me to the point of how hard/expensive it is to get to 60 quickly in an Impeza/EVO. To get these stupid 100mph times yo have to dial up 6000rpm and dump the clutch and hang on. Very expensive and not really recommended.
The transmission on a Skyline does a 0-60 far happier and faster in REAL use. The rear wheels will spin slightly and bleed away some power rather than killing the clutch. I've done the 4wd rally car thing. Ive replaced clutches at 3000 miles and I don't really enjoy the cost.
So my point ermm.. Even a straight 0-100 times doesnt say it all. Maybe we should all start quoting 40-140 times. That would seperate the men from the boys ;-)
