Good bye evo .. Hello GTR
Well i final sold the evo and was in the market for a replacement , I did look at many other options but i always kept coming back to the GTR . I no longer needed a 4dr just 4 seats . I do say for being stock it is pretty quick . Best time is 11.7 @118 no launch control , this model has LC2 so nissan WILL warranty transmission .

It is a 2009 GTR .. got it used with 23k miles

First Evo













I already purchase a few things for it , not trying to go serious ..

Exhaust
HKS mid pipe
AAM intakes
Cobb AP
ID 1000cc injectors

should be good for mid to high 10's @ 127-133ish ..

here is exhaust ...

Its apples to oranges .. Really 2 different cars .. I wouldn't compare .. Evo is a great car , and can be built up very nice . But i enjoy the luxury aspect of the GTR .. I will say one down side is the GTR tax .. the parts are insane priced .. But only a few pieces and your in the 10's .. some guys have hit 10's off of a tune only ..

You do know that more pics are in order once those parts start coming in. I am very jealous, congrats.

Congrats man. About 5 months or so ago, I was planing on trading the evo for a gt500 or zo6 or a gtr but then I saw the 2012 GTR and I was like, thats the one. So I will just enjoy my evo for another 2-3 years and pick up one used . Smart move on grabbing the 09 as I am sure you spent between 50/60 for it especially if it was babied.
