QUOTE (KKK999 @ Yesterday, 10:11 PM) | So? In what ways?
5 Gear cars doesn't have to use a fraction of the time to shift one extra gear.
Evo Xs are 'all-rounders', isn't really any disadvantaged!
The R33 is a 5-speed trans. machine, which is very similar to the R34 6-speed trans. , ain't so different! In fact, the R33 can seem to run slightly faster TAs on the WL than the R34!
The Subaru SVX is a 4-gear trans. machine. Its as fast as the Rs above. Its main disadvantage is extra caution is needed for cornering! |
Some five-gear cars in MT don't do so well in Time Attack (in relation to cars using six-speed) and the Evo 10 is not an exception. Heck, I've tried it myself (using an Evo 10 that someone I know uses) and from what I can see so far, I've never gotten a 2'48 on Yokohane (whilst I've done this thrice or more on my GDB-C which is a six-speeder).
Probably the only exception(s) I could think of is probably the FD from Mazda (the way that rotary engine works combined with the uber strong 3rd gear of the FD does quite wonders in NBL TA runs).
Anyways, as I've mentioned many times before, the Evo 10 is solid in real life (esp. up to the FQ-400 version) with 6-speed Twin Cluch SST gearbox. Being downgraded to 5-speed (in the game) left a bad tastes in some people's mouths (esp. since the 8 and 9 are 6-speeders hence many 'expected' that it would be the same for the CZ4A......but in the end it didn't.)
Right now, I have an Evo 10 at story chapter 4.........and as of the moment, I highly doubt that I would full-tune it anytime soon. It's not a car that I'd wanna work on immediately or even prioritize (as I'm focusing on Evo 8, Evo 9, RX8, MX5 Miata Roadster and Z34). Heck, I'd rather focus on my Corolla, GRB and Monster Hiace over my Evo 10. I just don't see anything IMHO that would make me wanna give time and effort to Evo 10 (which I see in the other cars I have)
Just my two cents.......
