Headed out with a friend of mine and his brother that was visiting from out of town, so we decided to go to the local drift spot and watch them drift. Well, Cops showed up as soon as we go there, so we figured we'd head back to the shop to see if Dragon had finished his 20B Install.
We're almost home when this Lancer EVO VI that was hanging with us decides to get bold with me. I'm at a stop light in the far left lane of a 3 lane highway. Light turns green and I go, followed by my friend in a WRX...with the EVO behind him. I'm not accelerating vigorously or anything...just gradually getting up to the speed limit when the EVO swings hard right and around the WRX at full throttle and next to me and passes me full blast... ...not to be one to punk out on a roll, I downshift and catch him at the top of 2nd gear...shift...and reel him in with 3rd gear as I pass him. Then I left off the gas so he can pass me and I nail it again and pass him in 3rd...shift...and destroy his ass in 4th gear....4 or 5 cars from a roll....the whole time during this race, I would spin tires as soon as boost came on. He would have probably gotten me from a launch because of my 235/40 drift tires out back(still waiting on Nitto's https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif ) He was lucky it started to rain or I would have pushed it to 5th gear just to prove a point. |

Cool cars, nice kill for you guys in Okinawa!
|
yea i would LOVE to see the import traffic in japan... so much easier acsess to parts and ****...
|
nice jspec:bigthumb: ..... does the evo here and japan push the same amount of power?
|
They get more power. This is the EVOVI, not VII our car was based on
|
i think the 5 was the hottest, nice kill though i wanna see the night life in japan
|
Good win bud. I've not yet had the chance to play with an Evo. It sounds like fun. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
|
well i have yet to either but i would get spanked
|
Very nice kill
|
Hey JSPECRACER7 i see a few of you guys live in Japan , where did you guys learn english and stuff? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png oh btw Great kill
|
ummmmm....english is our first language since we are gringos!
My EVO IV encounter. I was cruising home after hanging out with friends when a white EVO IV started tailgating me so close I could read the aa-cup bra size on his girly's trainer. Since we were on a three lane (each way) road with very little traffic I made a quick lane change so he could go around me but to my amazement this jack-monkey made the same change and kept tailing me. Since we were in a known speedtrap area I slowed down from 60kph to 40kph hoping this moron would drive around me. Nope! That didn't happen so I slowed down to 30kph. Hell, scooters and grandmama's were passing us with ease now. It was obvious he wanted to beat up on a Honda so I prepared to play. It was his lucky day because we got caught at a light with nobody near us. Mr. Braveheart pulled into the far right lane and gave me a rev. I gave him a nod and waited for the light to change. When the light changed we both eased out up to about 20kph. As soon as he punched it I matched the effort but with a LOT of wheel spin. My lil' hamster on crack hit the 8400rpm with ease and once I caught traction after shifting to second gear that poor lil' EVO owner was probably wishing he would have stayed at home. This little escapade was over before I hit the top of third gear. I came out of the throttle a bit so he could catch up and then punched it again after he nosed me just to rub it in his face. His girl was laughing at him at the next light. |

...I acutally raced a skyline the same night I killed the EVO VI....but I wasn't intentionally killing him....I was racing my friend in the WRX and we both just happened to pass him as he gave us a look of amazement https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif |

Most of the skyline's on the road aren't worth me getting bad gas mileage over...They're slow and heavy. Every now and again you get a GT-R that's got a built block/upgraded turbo's that's worth racing(TheCamel350 owns a GT-R like this)...

Yeah... we beat up on Skylines all the time! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif Most Skyline goobers think they have the fastest car on the planet after adding BOV and FMIC. They are worse than US Honda ricers with 20" Fart can tip exhaust.

I guess we big up the skylines to much here in the states.
|
I'd never imagine skylines being that overrated. i figured it was overrated, but not that over rated... oh well.... go kill some more skylines
|
ive always seen the skyline as over rated and now this just confirms it for me. whats so special about a GTR? 3000gt, 300zx, and supras are just as fast from a roll
if it wasnt for awd, the skyline would be slower than the rx7, 300zx, supra and 3kgt from a dig. nice kills and screw skylines....they're nothing but turbo's taxi cabs |
|
Skylines are nice for what they are, it's just the cocky owners (like some Supra guys{not attacking anyone})

oh, and i agree with the supra statement...except for its 93+ supra owners that are like that (generally) the older gen owners are almost always cool if they know what kinda car they have...i mena, if they're enthusiast, and not old people that have some kind of toyota |
Nice kill !... I also had a EVO for dinner. I hit about 150mph when we rolled from a 20mph run. I took him by about 10 cars or so. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Good kill Van, maybe sometime soon I can come down there and see you guys in action.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

Not sure that is just what I heard. Either way they are nice cars, but DAMN heavy!!! Sexy, but not as sexy as a 7 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif . Nice kill, I love hearing about kills from Japan! |
I don't think they're that expensive. But it would be nice to have some produced over here. But I'll always be partial to the 7.
|
i remember them being around the mid 50's.
and theyre incredably good cars. the R32 NEVER lost a professional race that it was entered in. and ive seen a few of them get 1300+hp to the wheels. |
Very good kill, man ^_^
I would be kinda afraid of an EVO, to be honest.... also, about the Skylines in Japan, that's crazy that you just ripped past one...racing or not, the guy giving you a look of shock like that is enough to boost your ego a bit, huh? ^_~ |
