RX7 compared to EvoVI

[stylus350]

i dunno i have enough trouble trying to get the power down in with 255/40/17\'s on mine never mind with 700bhp id be expecting 365/40/17\'s with sandbags in the boot lol

Then there is something wrong with your suspension and/or tyres.

nah the clutch is a bit fiesty, and when i let it out with a bit too much power on she tends kick kick about abit, its on tein coilovers and was set up by hunter 4wheel center in japan, so the suspentions pretty spot on and its got eagle f1\'s on the back and yoko advans on the front

Never driven an Evo so can\'t comment on performance comparisons, but to me the Evo has as much character as a dishwasher (probably handles slightly better though) .

i dunno they have ayc and the rs diffs are pretty good altho the form of the drive is compleatly diffrent, their 2 diffrent cars with 2 diffrent set ups, when the rx7 was designed they had passion for one thing and that was fun who cared about bot space and a glove box to big enough to hold the manual, now the evo has to forfill things like 4 doors room for babys and a big boot for shopping to make it copetative in todays market
like i said 2 totally diffrent cars

[rx mad]

2 true the evo is the fastest production 4 door, it is not designed anywere with raw power like the rex

Round a track the Rx7 wins every time!  Period!!  Come rain or shine, the Rx will have it, there is one of the Jap vids with an Evo Rx and a Supra I think, and the Evo is the first to fall off in the rain.  These slick diffs aren\'t all they are cracked up to be!  Sometimes raw talent behind the wheel makes up for it!

4wd in rain aint as good as people do think. i think on 5th gear awhile ago they had a 4wd fwd and rwd cars out on a section of track on a VERY wet corner and the rwd was far quicker throught the corner.

heres the vid you are talking about atomic rex

Great Vid that....never get bored of watching it!!!

Yes if both the Evo and the Rex are in a average to fast drivers\' hands then the Evo might give the Rex a good run, but stick a good driver in both and the Rex will annihilate the Evo.  The Evos running at Combe are 500bhp+ and although they aren\'t on slicks they are still 4 seconds a lap slower than my times in Rx (only 261.77bhp too! )
