evo or scooby

[turbojolt]

this is the decision my brother is trying to make

what one would you go for, i know the evos can rust but is that just in import ones?


mpg isnt a real worry he has his punto as a daily so this will just be his weekend car to cane about in (and more then likely lose his licence lol)

when we talk about it we both agree there are loads of scoobys knocking about but is there a reason for that, other then them being cheaper


he has 10k budget to play with

[phunkynova]

EVO's are a better country lane car but cost more to run Subaru are a better all round car and cheaper to run. If its just out and out blast car EVO if you want to use it like a daily than Subaru.

[Nova-nation]

I'd go for the evo, scoobys are too common, and personally I prefer the look of the evo!

[Jack]

Of the two, evo. But I don't really like Imprezas.

£10k would see you with an 8 or well kept 7. As with most things jap, don't blow your entire budget on the car as you'll need to retain some for maintenance. A decent importer should also have de-rusted and undersealed the car as part of the import process (most JDM cars don't bother with it as rust never seems to be an issue over there lol), whilst anything UKDM will be undersealed from factory its probably been exposed to ~10 years of UK roads. My Celica is UK and undersealed... and rusty lol

Alternatively what about a GTR? RX7? Heck, get an ST205 and spend the remaining £7k on making it munch Evos :d

[turbojolt]

there will be money left over for looking after it, the boy earns to much money lol


he is having a look at rx7s right now are the 2+2? dont think he wants a 2 seater there a pain in the **** for running mates about in lol

we was talking about other jap cars, all he wants to do is destroy big powered german motors lol

[turbojolt]

rx7s are to old apprantly :roll:

[TANKNOVA]

evo every day scoobys just brake down and blow up all the time and there abit like saxos evey c_nt has one

[turbojolt]

he has added one to his short list

2007 scooby 2.5 sti, dont the 2.5ltr engines seize??

[Alex J]

burgo

[turbojolt]

burgo

lol what would you buy if you had 10k to spend on a performance car then?

[phunkynova]

evo every day scoobys just brake down and blow up all the time and there abit like saxos evey c_nt has one

BULL SH*T I've had a Subaru GT (turbo) for 10 years now, not gone wrong yet beside normal wear and tear. All engine will give up when badly tuned and not looked after
And you have just call me a C-nt

[turbojolt]

to be fair he has a point loads of dickheads own them over here mate lol

just looked up them 2.5 sti scoobys 4.8 seconds to 60 :O crazy

[Plug]

The 2.5's are good engines of your after torque :)

I'd be on the look out for a r32 gts-t then have about 8-6k to play with it :)

[Connor]

You could buy a very nice e46 m3 for less than 10k

[turbojolt]

You could buy a very nice e46 m3 for less than 10k


he wants to beat the germans not join them matey lol


and them skylines are to old he wont be intrested in anything older the 2005

[TANKNOVA]

BULL SH*T I've had a Subaru GT (turbo) for 10 years now, not gone wrong yet beside normal wear and tear. All engine will give up when badly tuned and not looked after
And you have just call me a C-nt
ive also called my self that the point is 90% of idiots that own a saxo drive like idiots and ill think your find 90% of impreza owners where a cap its the chav performance version of a saxo again you may be in the 10% ( by the way i have owned 6 scoobys but its the way all the chavs buy them and drive like they stole it making all the good folks get a bad rep and then by driving said car like idiots means when you go to buy a scooby 90% of them have been raged to a inch of there lifes so get over your self your not a c_unt unless you where a cap !

[Plug]

Oh alrighty then would say an r34 skyline but a decent one is outta budget and there still to old haha

[TANKNOVA]

im now a bad man with my bad rep grr o well also if you want newer then 2005 your end up with a 2.5 engine there awfull and suffer badley from ringland problems and boom new engine time

[phunkynova]

you are right TJ but tanknova should chose his words more carefully.

End of the day it's best to drive the cars and see which he likes to drive the most.

[pikey1986]

you are right TJ but tanknova should chose his words more carefully.

best advise so far imho

[turbojolt]

Oh alrighty then would say an r34 skyline but a decent one is outta budget and there still to old haha

yer i would say he is being fussy, but then again 10k is alot of money for anyone to spend on a car if there not 100% on it lol


he really likes the rx7s thinks they look class but he is worried about there age, and also if he needs work done on the engine most spanner monkeys wont have a clue what there looking at lol

[Connor]

Needs abit of work, but this in my eyes would be an ultimate weekend toy!

my uncle had one of them, his had a turbo as well lol

[phunkynova]

The ****el engine (just wanted to sat that) can be a bit prone to problems with wear.

it will not let me type w a n k e l ?

[pikey1986]

and cost a bomb to rebuild

edit

a quick google search told me £1500 plus parts and vat

[Mieran]

Evo all day

If he wants something a bit old skool then R32 GTR

[Mike]

and cost a bomb to rebuild

edit

a quick google search told me £1500 plus parts and vat

Theres a couple of 51 reg RX7;s for sale at various importers at the minute. If you ever plan on buying an RX7, check carefully at its mechanical condition. And then cheack again.

A set of new rotor tips will set you back around £1400 on there own. A turbo pack from Mazda is about £2.5k also. Half & full port engines run lower compression then a non ported motor so bear that in mind. Suspension components etc are all very expensive as there all RJ'd double wishbone gubbins. Power commanders are also hella expensive (£600++).

Other then that a standard ish one will mince most top end cars when it comes to outright top speed.

But to answer the OP, I wouldnt bother with either personally lol both of them are magnets for car key burglarys & ram raiders.

[turbojolt]

what would you buy mate, 10k budget, cant be older then 2005 and has to be stupid fast lol

[Jack]

£10k won't get you anything really that new thats stupid fast tbh

[turbojolt]

well this scooby he is going to look at is a bit over 12k but dont think he is going to spend much more then that, and that is stupid fast imo lol

[blue_peg_16v]

Neither lotus Carlton is were it's at

[Jack]

Oh right, I was thinking you meant properly stupid fast lol

Has he tried an XE Nova? They're like well fast innit

[Mike]

what would you buy mate, 10k budget, cant be older then 2005 and has to be stupid fast lol

Short of putting a lot of money into it, your practically limited to new age Evoloutions, Imprezas, Nissan 350GT's OR Mercedes CL600's (<Mega stretching a 10k budget for a 500hp car!). As standard I wouldnt say there stupid fast mind (Evos & Imprezas I mean :/ )

The biggest problem youve got is your looking at cars around the wrong era. Late 90's Jap cars are some of the fastest things you can get now with £10k. (Modified ones that is).

Example A = http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MR2-Rev3-GTS-Turbo-500bhp-/230834112826?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item35bec9093a

Or this maybe.... although not Jap.

Example B (Wildcard) = http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2005-Vauxhall-Monaro-5-7-V8-2DR-700-BHP-VAUXHALL-MAGAZINE-FEATURE-CAR-/150856513738?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item231fbfb8ca

[Mike]

£10k won't get you anything really that new thats stupid fast tbh

Exactly what I though lol

This is stupid fast I could imagine. Although over twice the budget lol

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MR2-TURBO-900bhp-Drag-Car-/230829851178?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item35be88022a

[turbojolt]

Oh right, I was thinking you meant properly stupid fast lol

Has he tried an XE Nova? They're like well fast innit

0-to-60 in under under 5 seconds is stupid fast to me lol, think he would rather chop off his wang then go near a horrid little **** box nova to be honest, he gets seriously agitated by rust lol think thats why he is now leaning more to the scoobys then evos

[_Jake]

With 10k i'd be looking to build something epic myself, but failing that i'd have a silly quick GC8

just sent him this link, he likes it but is worried about the cost of maintaing it

[MK999]

just sent him this link, he likes it but is worried about the cost of maintaing it

Tell him it's not really a Vauxhall, it's actually a Holden underneath, and the lump is chevy? lol

[novalew]

i know its old but supra ??

[turbojolt]

how much would a short service on that cost compared to a evo or scooby? also how often would it need doing?

[Mike]

just sent him this link, he likes it but is worried about the cost of maintaing it

It'll only the be same as owning an Evo/Impreza/Supra/RX7/Skyline etc etc. Expect 18mpg if your lucky. 13 or less when you plant it. £300+ odd for a set of discs & pads, £500++ for sets of tyres etc etc.

[Mike]

i know its old but supra ??

Standard Supra Twin Turbo with a manual box would blow £10k for a clean one with ease. I know, Ive looked. As im the exact same situation but with a slightly smaller budget.

[Jon_nova1]

i'd go Evo but like everyone already says he's limiting himself by only going post 2005

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Skyline-R34-GTT-Triptonic-Very-Nice-car-/271034285027?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3f1ae6fbe3

and with the money he saves he can tune it

[turbojolt]

he should get it, would be so much better then a evo, 700hp is just plain crazy!!!!!


wonder how many dead legs it would take to force him to buy it?

[Mike]

Paul Brown has a lot of nice import motors in stock :thumb: hes got more then whats in his other items.

[blue_peg_16v]

Speak to saloony hes had a monaro a couple of years now so should have a good idea of running costs

[steviegsi]

If its just a toy why not something a bit older that's more likely to hold its money better? I would be looking at sierra / escort cosworths ( assuming 10-12k would still buy clean examples?)

Just because its newer doesn't mean it's any more unlikely to go t'its up

[Yorkie]

Evo. Dont really like the look of subaru.

[Stuart]

I'd only be gunning for a 'newer' car for a nicer interior and toys.... given the Subarus and Evos have an 80's level of interior trim and toys no matter what age you get one, it shouldnt matter.

[Jack]

Standard Supra Twin Turbo with a manual box would blow £10k for a clean one with ease. I know, Ive looked. As im the exact same situation but with a slightly smaller budget.
UK spec TT manual would be more in the £15k range, although you could probably get an import for under 10. Don't be put off by auto though, afaik the autobox is slightly faster to 60 lol

Servicing wouldn't be THAT bad though - dealer would be mental but there's a gazillion specialists out there and a large range of parts suppliers. Reliable, pretty easy to tune, overnight parts from Japan on your tab at Harry's, etc. Still look 'fresh' IMO. Get an import and it will be cheaper with lower mileage but less power and not as many extras.

Only thing that would put me off the Supra is its more a GT car than a nimble racer, but will still bend the speedo in under 5 seconds. Maybe also look at Soarers or if you want newer maybe the Lexus SC range.

[turbojolt]

right had a talk with him and he is now going here sometime this week, for a look at some of the older jap cars

http://www.paulbrowncars.co.uk/


his main reason for the age stipulation was overall condition of the car, he wants to avoid any cars with scratches or blemishes on the paint work

[Stuart]

so he wants to be a GJOB lol

A new car could have a worse condition paint job than an old one. ALWAYS buy on the condition of the car, not the age/service history that might be there.
Unless you are after a specific car that only came out in XYZ years.

[turbojolt]

if he buys one im going to have to buy a c20let to rebuild and slot in the nova rather then a xe on nitrous, i hate him lol.

[John]

Not a fan of either tbh. German for me every time.

[steviegsi]

Not a fan of either tbh. German for me every time.

T'would be my thinking too... Could have a fit m5/m3/850csi for 10k and a load of change to spend on tyres and petrol.

[turbojolt]

there is endless amounts of fast german cars round his way all driven by greeks and black blokes lol think he wants something a bit more hardcore

[Stuart]

Buy a £10K finished kit car.

[turbojolt]

looking more at 7-to-8k evos right now keep the rest to one side as its bound to brake lol, there is a nice one he found a 02 plate with 350hp looks like a animal

[John]

i was thinking something along the lines of 450bhp..........

[turbojolt]

Right lads,


he is going to buy a evo tomorow lol cant funking wait!!!!!!!!!!!!


EVO BABY WOOP WOOP lol

[rednova]

good man ive been looking at these as ive had the impreza, a lot seem to suffer from crankwalk though so keep an eye out

[turbojolt]

the insurance is baffaling with these evos, he can insure a evo 5 for 1100 quid but the 6,7 and 8's have quotes come out at 2500 or more???

[Mike]

Go on MLR an search "stolen" and youll see why. Almost one thread a day.

[turbojolt]

so what the 5's are harder to steal lol

[Mike]

so what the 5's are harder to steal lol

No, just rarer now. As most were stolen back in the day lol

[turbojolt]

dont be jel mike :p

[paul080803]

5s are pretty old now in terms of insurance. Less to repair, more likely to write off = lower risk so lower premium.

[Mike]

dont be jel mike :p

Rotary + twin turbo = no reason to be jealous :thumb:

[steviegsi]

Which one is he buying tj? I read a thread on another forum, fella completely restored an Evo 7. Was a complete and utter rusty bastrad around the rear quarters.... Not uncommon on the 7 apparently.

[turbojolt]

with the insurance quotes he is looking at the 5's more then the others tbh

we just had a chat, about the whole people braking in to get the keys and he said him nd a work mate already had that conversation (sad really that you have to think about things like that when buying a motor) and he said the keys are being kept upstairs under his pillow every night if they want them there have to work for it ;) he is also getting a steering wheel lock a good alarm/tracker with a hidden immobilizer button, we was also talking about the hijack immobilizers my uncle had one in his 450 hp cossy, it lets the car jackers get down the roada bit, but then the car cuts out

[Stuart]

I had that keys chat with someone once. His view point was that it's only a car and it's insured, let the scrotes break in, find the keys with ease and piss off with the car. As opposed to ransacking the house, endangering him, his mrs and the kids.

I prefer his view point than that of sitting on they keys to a piece of metal.

[steviegsi]

Probably a lot more sensible way to go, especially if you've family in the house, as most people wouldn't be in the best shape to fight off intruders at 3 in the morning, in the dark, in your power ranger pyjamas..... Unless said intruders would give me ten minutes to wake up properly and have a smoke and a cup of tea, I think I'd be better off in bed.

Edit- you'd probably end up in the sh it for beating a burglar senseless anyway.

[turbojolt]

very logical and good points, but this is my brother and thats just not going to happen lol

[MK999]

very logical and good points, but this is my brother and thats just not going to happen lol

He a fan of casts and bandages as well?

End of the day if they can't get to the keys/steal it some other way they'll burn it out on his drive. Sad but true.

I read a thread on MLR once where they'd set light to his evo, fire had spread to his Audi, handbrake cable snapped on that, rolled into his peugeot project and set that alight too. He woke up at 4am or so to find all of his cars ablaze.

Some might say insurance scam but I felt for the guy if it wasn't.

[turbojolt]

i can honestly say i would rather be sat in a hospital then allowing some one to take my property with out fighting for it, I had to grow up in a area where i was mugged and robbed as kids every other day, because we was the only white guys that lived there, the day we started fighting back it stopped, we all have the right to defend are selfs and are property, i would do what ever i wanted to them and just deal with the consequences after, what will be will be.

[Stuart]

So you only have third party insurance on stuff then? Otherwise you are a hypocrite.

[paul080803]

TJ that is a crazy attitude to have!

I can only presume you dont have children or a family that love you? Because if you did then you would rather just let a car go so that you will still be there the next day for your family than risking getting stabbed/shot or beaten to death.

Although at least when your family attend your funeral or visit you in hosipital they will be happy with the thought that your car is still on the driveway!

[turbojolt]

So you only have third party insurance on stuff then? Otherwise you are a hypocrite.


i dont understand you logic there

[MK999]

i dont understand you logic there

You'll protect your property with your life but not with your money.

[turbojolt]

he is in Kent having a look at this right now

http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr119/turbojolt/KGrHqZoE-z8oTSwWBP2ImszR_121.jpg

its not the fastest one out there, but its only done 35k miles and has a big fat wod of paper work with it loads of main dealer stamps and ent to be in extremely good condition apart from a chip/small crack on the windscreen

260hp, 5.9 sec 0-60 and a top speed of over 150mph, should be fast enough for now :d

[Stuart]

i dont understand you logic there

If you are willing to risk your life, I trust you dont bother having TPFT or Fully Comp insurance on car/house/stuff as there is no point in paying the extra.
If you have TPFT or FC then really your statement holds no water as you arent willing to risk life and limb for mere possessions.

[turbojolt]

because I'm always in my car or house? i dont want to get in a big argument on here, and yes i dont have children and yes that may very well change my attitude to this kind of stuff, but honestly sitting here right now thinking about it if someone broke in to the house where my children were are sleeping, i would be hanging of the throat like a pit bull on a tree

we clearly have very very different opinions on this kind of thing, can we leave it at that.

[turbojolt]

just had a phone call form my brother saying "leigh dont you just love it when your driving down the road and your dumpvalve goes off" then he hung up so im guessing he bought it lol

he keeps going on about how quite it is, could his be one of the only evos with a standard exhaust lol

[Liam]

Needs a decent spoiler on it. Looks too much like an old mans car at the moment lol

[turbojolt]

yer he is looking in to that already, the car has so few miles on it and is in such good condition couldnt turn it down over a spoiler lol

[novadave24]

change the exhaust to a hks one be much better and remap it ;)

[turbojolt]

all in good time dave, might aswell enjoy it for what it is for now, then once he is use to it seek more power

he is already looking into

powdercoating the wheels
repainting the calipers
de-cat, s/s exhaust, induction kit, remap & alloy rad but dont think that will be for a while yet.

[steviegsi]

I quite like that.... Very subtle for an Evo. Agree it needs tarted up a bit to un-subtle it a bit though.

[turbojolt]

he parked it out side the shops when him and my dad went out in it, when they came out there was 5 blokes standing around it chatting and taking pictures lol

rare sight in tottenham obversely lol, he is brining it up to mine not this weekend but next, cant wait to have a go in the little beast :d

[Stuart]

Bet he won't have it by the time he's due to see you lol

[turbojolt]

Bet he won't have it by the time he's due to see you lol

thats what my old man said lmfao

[turbojolt]

my dad also said once the turbo kicks in it really pulls well, feels really fast but at the same time it feels really settled and stable not like the cosworths my uncle use to mess about with, wouldn't stop going on about how good it feels to drive, but he doesn't like the attention it gets, loads of people looking at it when he was driving it and the 5 odd guys from the post above

i have turned my phone off as I'm getting annoyed with the calls and texts telling me how good it is, while I'm sat here 120 odd miles from it unable to drive it :(

[Mike]

Bet he won't have it by the time he's due to see you lol

This lol

All the Evo owners I know/work with are all paraniod to fcuk about being followed/car jacked etc aswell lol

My composite cell leader at work had one (sold it for a hawkeye impreza which he crashed lol) everytime I mention his old Subaru hes says get an MPS instead as there "better" lol

Can get a clean one now for a right decent price too! Old mans car that goes like a rocket ship FTW. No scene tax, no over priced insurance, no waking to a knife weilding TWOC'er at 2am either! Id love to get one if they did more then 400ish miles to a tank of fuel :(
