is the GTO any good? I hear it's bad on hakone though?
how about compared with rx7 and Silvia?
which one is best as SECOND car?

pls don't tell me it's up to the the driver -.-

@hanzel2m --- sad to say that its really up to the driver's playing Style/ Handling/ Car Mod preference. Unless you are comparing Car performance with handicap off or during TA then only the car's ability to perform will comes in.

Few of my Friends tried using my GTO, they mentioned that it needs time to be Tamed. 1 even say its a Lousy Car and ask me to Scrap it as the tunning was weird when doing TA in Osaka. LOL! Hope he don't see this

I am still v noob and am unable to use my GTO to its full potential. As i have a RX-7 which i had not drive for very long.... These are my personal views.

I feel that GTO is a 6-Speed RX-7, with an edge that GTO can lead a race while RX-7 cant.

Rx-7 can Overtake, can cushion, can guard but without gd top-speed. it can be catch up easily with handicap on. On the other end RX-7 has the ability to catch up the leading pack equally fast which would Stress our your opponent. I dont understand why though.

GTO has these RX-7 advantages with a slight better top speed then RX-7. On the Contri, GTO is bigger sized then RX-7 so handling would prove a challenge especially in Aero Set C. 1 of my friend tried running my GTO in Hakone without crashes

I have no experience with Silvia, so cant help much

Between Rx-7 and GTO, i would prefer "Ferrari" GTO.

hey does anyone know if the Evo VIII RS was available in WMMT2? Thanks.

Heres the rule, whenever an a Lancer Evolution is white, its always an RS. Any other color and its GSR, don't ask why...

The only acception I've seen was in IDV3 with the IV, V and VI. They where GSR regardless of the color, but now in IDV4 that was fixed with the remaining Evo's.

Even we can made a color change when we
have a E8 discard could be
made as GSR/RS

Can someone list all the pros and cons of all the evos? And is there any difference between E8 and E9 in terms of performance?

I hear that just like the new Impreza, the new Evo grips more. But they're both greatly outnumber by there predecessors...

@hanzel2m & WayneXIII

Check out this video:

It was a friendly group game organized in my country by a bunch of friends who hang out in these forums (there were several batches actually, but only the first set got recorded on video). Anyways I took part in that batch and I used the GTO (I'm the one in the leftmost machine). Judge for yourselves how the GTO performs. (though due to a stupid mistake, I botched my race and finished last )

Whew gto all the baby!!

BTW.. I was there also doing that ta on iro dh on the ID4 cab...

so for the winner if play at wangan = EVO VIII or EVO IX ?
any one have try it?

mine's an evo IX and it's actually my favorite car.

like i do cause we make a new card not transfer car ^^

well it has better handling than say an r34 but less acceleration, 3rd gear sux imho but 4th and fifth are kick ass...
kinda understeers sometimes idk why tho

You car does not handle better than my R34, I've raced you...

@Sailor Enlil : what was your Mod? able to tell me?
I have not seen the clip, will see it once i'm back home..... Btw check out my Mod,

Car Name : vGoDv
Car Colour : Red
Car Mod : Full Aero Set C
Enkei RC-T4 Rims
Aero Mirror
Aero Bonnet W/ Duct
Flame 2 Sticker

I find this mod more suitable for my playing style, actually Handling wise its down to the player's playing style its not really the car's fault. In battling, with the same HP and handicap on, all cars are basically almost the same. no matter which car, as long as you don't crash/ drop your speed ridiculously, you can catch up with the car infront.

@sroso : i agree, R34 has a stronger 3rd gear, but GTO has a stronger 4th and 5th gear. 6th gear was kinda on par.

last time i tried it but I crashed me E8

The GT-R were fast but
the GTO is great

@Sailor Enlil : u are not as familiar with your GTO then the 3rd player who is very used to his GTR. You need to make ur turn slightly earlier for GTO as its naturally drifty. Hope that helps

This is my current GTO setup:

Color: Pale Blue
Mod: Aero Set C w/ Standard Wing
Rims: Rays Volk Racing TE37
Mirrors: Aero Mirror
Hood: Bonnet with Duct
Sticker: Car Works Sticker
Neon Tubes: Blue

I actually find the GTO grippy compared to other heavyweights like the Supra, which is very "slippery" (I have 8 cars actually; See this thread). In fact on the day of that race video someone commented that I had the "strongest GTO he's ever seen".

There's no love for Evo III's or the other Evo versions where I come from. That makes my car rare I guess...

My Evo III setup
Color : Dark/Navy blue (recently unlocked, through card renewal)
Mod : Aero Set C
Wings : GT wing (Basic)
Rims : YOKOHAMA SUPER ADVAN (Racing Ver.2) red colourish
Hood : Carbon bonnet (black carbon hood)

@Sailor Enlil : Personally feel that Rays rims doesn't really suits GTO
its a pity that i wouldn't be able to race u if not.....we can see who has the better car mod/ handles the GTO better as theres not much GTO around :/ .....

My own Team Card:

Evo V RS setup
Color : White Scottia (However you spell it., I got blue as my first renewal color but didn't choose it.)
Mod : Stock
Wings : Stock
Rims : Stock
Hood : Stock

Runs a 3'50'376 (I think) On Osaka. Haven't started dress tune because I'm waiting for the rest of my team to finish their card. I'm hoping the set iti up will be this:


Color : Green or Black (If unlockable)
Mod : (Have to look into that)
Wings : Wing by Type
Rims : Enkei Forged Tarmac WRC
Hood : Hood w/duct

- RemieGino14 -

Anyone got any tips for Evo VI and like what its best and worst at? Thanx

i meant i FEEL it has better handling. like i used a stock 34 and a stock GTO and thought the gto had much better handling. thats all no need to get offensive...
btw beat your EVO on hakone.

Well, a bunch of my friends disagreed with your assessment (GTO + Rays)



First thing they said when they saw this was "beautiful"
