I'm thinking of selling my s2000 and go for Sti or Evo

[tuyen]

i'm thinking of selling my s2000 and get a sti or evo. so let me know which one is best.

[Maniac1]

If you boost your S2, you would be alot faster than both Evo and STi. Of course, heavily mod both of them and you'll have yourself a quick ass sedan. That comes with all wheel drive and you wouldn't have to worry about breaking anything, unless you go with an Evo. Lol I heard that the s2k's weakness is it's differential, right? So you would just have to baby it, but your s2000 already looks clean, I would just boost it and call it aday. :p

[EclipseE16g]

I'll keep the s2000 and boost it also. For reliability wise, just supercharge it.

[EJ25RUN]

both are good choices, its really which one you want more, i mean no more new evo ix and we got 1 new 2007 sti left at my dealer so..... you prolly are better off used or take the wait for the 08 sti/ evo x.

[RUFFIAN]

What is your motivation? If it is only boost, keep what you got and boost it. If you want a boosted AWD sedan I say Evo for tuneability and top end speed. The STI is the TQ monster. Its harder to get HP's out of it though.

[tuyen]

boost and more room. the s2000 i can't take no body

[Tree]

g/l clean s2k

[koffebean00]

Evo FTW!! Cheaper to mod and faster!

[Maniac1]

boost and more room. the s2000 i can't take no bodyIf room is what you want. You can't go wrong with an STi or Evo. Now it all depends on what you feel fits you better, go test drive both and see how you like them. Stock they're both basically identical.

[87 Turbo II]

Evo because I just like them more.

[Tree]

sti... faster in the long run

[koffebean00]

sti... faster in the long run

How u figure that?

[DDam]

How u figure that?
Easy, the week after you install all those go fast mods, the Evo will be sitting at the shop not running.

really..... thats's odd....:rolleyes: mine went mid 11's with just boltons.:idb:

[koffebean00]

Never had any problems out of mine. Definitely one of the fastest cars I've had and it was extremely reliable. It was my daily driver.

[JDMef88]

I would keep the S2K, your car is clean and fresh...boost it!

[CHADbee]

evo all the way. whens the last time u seen and STI run 11's on stock turbo? i have personally never seen that happen but i have seen many evos run 11's on stock turbo. mods for an evo are alot cheaper than with an STI also.

[Truegiant]

Either way it will be a huge change for you. I am still not used to no 8500 rpm redline. I am still not used to having to wait forever for the power to kick in. I love my wrx esp. with all the bolt ons i have done. AWD was a huge kick in the pants to get used to driving in the twistys before i could actually grasp the fact that controlling the slide is alot easier. I love my new sedan and when i go to upgrade again it will def. be for another awd sedan. I think you will be extremely happy with either one! Just like everyone else has said go test drive both and see what you like. I think it was turbo magazine that just did a article about the newer sti's tuned/ by ams. It was a pretty interesting article were they only put like 2200 in to the car and ended up with like 400whp/460 whtq or something like that. Anywhoo.. thats just my two cents!

thats 1 vid u found on the internet though. theres a person that posted in this thread that ran 11.6s all day in his stock turbo evo. of all the times iv been to import showdown, tunerfest, SELOC track days, import face off events ive seen a handfull of stock turbo evos run 11s but not 1 stock turbo STI even touch low 12's

not saying to cant hit 11's in a stock turbo STI but its ALOT easier to do it in a evo

Not bad.:goodjob:

That's a first but Evo's have still been and still do run consistently faster times on stock turbo.

After I ran my 11.6 I found that other Evo's have been hitting low 11's and even high 10's on stock turbo. :eek:

[koffebean00]

I think you're talking about this...

You have to take into consideration that the 4g63 has been out alot longer than the ej25. So they're not caught up to the Evo's yet. The STi was running simple bolt-ons, unlike subie's it's easy to make power with Evo's cause of cams and other small upgrades that alot of subaru owners don't do.


not saying to cant hit 11's in a stock turbo STI but its ALOT easier to do it in a evoThis is true, too.

No matter how you look at it, both are great cars. Each has their flaws. Just get what you're going to be happiest with. Trust me on this!!

:D ;) :idb: :boobies: :yes:

[Maniac1]

I too have more pictures, Juan. Lol but this battle will never end. :p

[koffebean00]

LoL I know, I've got tons of Evo pics too. I'm done

[WickedIXMR]

Coming from an ex s2000 owner i would go with the evo. Seems to me you want to sell your car for the exact same reason i sold mine and im happy with what i went with which is an evo. The s2000 is a very fun car but just not practical. I would go with the evo because they're just better its a fact. Interior is nicer, engine is deff better, tranny and transfer case is still very strong (no matter what ppl say, they dont know what theyre talking about) and so on. Even Al at dynoflash says "Subarus are a lot easier to damage the motor than Evos with bad tuning," and Al does work for both evos and stis. Of course these are all my opinions.

[ttman]

wow results are surprising. I thought a lot more people would vote for evo. IMO, evo has better motor but wrx has better driveline. a high hp evo=a lot of broken transfer cases.

[WickedIXMR]

You mean the sti has a better driveline. Wrx trannys are made out of paper. And evo transfer cases dont break unless you dont know how to drive the car. A friend of mine was putting down 500whp on pump and over 600whp on race gas and on the stock transfer case and raced the car plenty of times and never blew.

[MachNU]

i have to ask this, my knowledge is VERY limited when it comes to the AWD systems....we have an STI on our lot that i have been using to drive around in, and the thing is beatiful, first one i have really had a chance to drive around and the car pulls hard as hell in 2nd for a stock car....but my question is what is the proper quick shifting for awd cars!?!?!?! i am use to rwd and power shifting, but in a sti with a DCCD set all the way to the rear, the car is still not able to be power shifted! so what really is the proper way to drive them. i would love to buy an sti or evo but other than insurance being out the ass, whats the proper term or way to shift them!?!?!

[koffebean00]

NO LIFT SHIFTING FTW!!!! :D

[admedlin]

of course I'm gonna say keep the -S- and boost it. but i'm biased :)

of your options, I say go STi, I like the boxer sound. Power/reliability/room is the same either way

[Got Milk?]

evo+sti=Same cars XD

[HachiDori]

Evo>sti

I've driven an Mr for the past few days, vs my wrx...wrx not sti but still WAYYYY bettter in everything IMO

[DDam]

Evo's get u these......

http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h284/PANGES3/1.jpg

:D ;) :idb: :boobies: :yes:
Gets you what? Chlamydia... Excellent reason to not get an Evo.

In all honesty it's personal preference for the most part. Soo whichever one looks better to you would be a starting point.

[koffebean00]

Gets you what? Chlamydia... Excellent reason to not get an Evo.


Why u always have to be hatin??

You must've got ur ass raped :idb: by an Evo recently or something.

Put the "Haterade" away and STFU if u have nothing construtive/positive to add!

Both cars are great cars. We've already established this while u had to pick thru the comments to make yourself seem witty and funny, in which u Fail! :tongue1:

[Stormhammer]

get a scooby wagon and put the STi turbo on it :D

-runs away-

its the cheapest outta the bunch ( even on insurance :D )

[yerrow]

^^^still not as fast as an evo

[blackboi50]

sorry alex:(.........the evo looks wayyyyyyy better than an STI!!!!.......the hood scoop turns ME off!!!!!.......only thing about the STI''s and WRX's i like is the exhaust note!!!!!!!...........1

[kfzemx3]

I like the sti's better, but i also like the evos, when it comes down to it, its about what you want, go test drive them both and see what your happier with. It isn't all about power, you don't always have to be the fastest

[ueyedgr8tness]

Got to say sti just cause there pure sexy ass hell and sound better,and yes it make take a little more money to make fast but if u can afford the 30k car then u should not be worried anyway about how much it cost to make fast.

U guy's no this is hotness:yes:

[AnthonyF]

IMO. I think the STi looks better but I remember the last gen where it was what...2 hours to change spark plugs? Nann. i'll pass. lol. Go for da EVO. Just dont get White.

[1000cckiller]

Never had any problems out of mine. Definitely one of the fastest cars I've had and it was extremely reliable. It was my daily driver.exactly, I never had problems with mine either. Go with the evo cheaper to mod, and it will be faster.

[upstatescevo]

he has a nice s2000 and if you just want to autox they are good cars but if u want to go fast just get an evo i have been going to atlanta dragway for awhile and no offense but i havent even seen an sti break 12's and i run low 12's high 11's for about $1500 oh yeah and i have an 8 you can get a 9 now for about 25k or you can get an rs for about the same price and run 12's all stock

[ueyedgr8tness]

how do you figure that?

cause smart ppl wouldn't go all in and buy a car they can't afford to fixup:goodjob: if u can afford to buy a 30k car and not sweat dropping that 30k u shouldn' have a problem dropping an extra 3-5k on mods.

[1000cckiller]

TROOF!!!!!!:D......1Also that is not the troof. I have been to meets where people have 30k+ cars, and it takes them four years later to mod it. Not everyone you see with a 30k car can afford it, or to mod it. Most idiots who buy these cars stuggle from pay check to pay check. I know a few who can afford, but I know double and triple that who can not.

[ueyedgr8tness]

buddy about half the people on here, who own 30k cars stuggle to mod it.

LOL!! and u think that is good? I mean i wouldn't even think of getting a new evo or sti unless i had cash to drop as soon as i got it.I have done that with every car i have had just because i went out smart and looked at the budget and said ok the most i can afford is 20k so lets go with a 17k car and spend the rest on mods.


LOok if u go look in the forsale section here or any were else u will see a ton of ppl who got the new whips struggled to mod it and now there selling it and about to loose out the ass.when if they were smart enough te would have never been in that position in the 1st place if they would have got a cheaper car.

[ueyedgr8tness]

So like in my case i am not not sure what the next whip will be but if i wanted a evo i would get a evo8 just cause they run a little cheaper and ppl or willing to drop the price a little because of the new models,and on top of that i would have money to put it into the shop as soon as i got it ...VS... me going and getting a new 1 dropping 30k+ and struggle to mod it,so why buy a car u can't go all out with it as soon as u get it when the reason u got it was to go fast?

[blackboi50]

Like I said there are a lot of people on here like that. That wasn't saying you were one of them. I sold my evo because of bigger and better things, I want to do. I bought that car, and went straight and dropped 8k into it. I just sold my cobra, and I am looking to buy a Porsche or a GTR. So many people put themselves in debt messing with cars they can't afford, to try and be cool. Fact is still that most on here can't afford the car they own now.

[ueyedgr8tness]

The struggle part thoe i no what he means by that it sux.I guess thats why i try to be a little smarter every time i get a new whip cause i have been in that paycheck to paycheck bs before and its a slow route to moding my old whips i had.

[ueyedgr8tness]

[ueyedgr8tness]

yeah and the state tropper gets me out of the tickets:goodjob: but i dont get many ive only had 1 in my evo and 2 in my gst


So its fully in your name no 1 else on the policy and your paying 96$ a month wow that is crazy.

[kfzemx3]

you must be extremely old cause i pay 93 a month for my camry with full coverage, 250/deduct, roadside and all the extra ****, and i have no accidents or tickets and i turn 26 in jan

[upstatescevo]

no im 23 its not that bad i have a 1000 dollar deduct and all the extra stuff i have a buddy who is 24 and he pays the same thing for his evo every month and he has a 250 deduct

[upstatescevo]

it started out bad when i first got my gst and it was the first time i was the only person on my insurance and it was 201 a month when i was 19

[upstatescevo]

the lady at my insurance company said there was not a really big difference in my insurance on my evo or a regular lancer

[kfzemx3]

well then consider yourself lucky lol cause they want 183 from me for the same setup i have now for my is300 that i'm buying hopefully next week :)

though i really cant complain cause when i was with progressive i was paying 117 a month for my mx3 and that was liability only and a 500 dollar deductable lol i got screwed big time with them

[upstatescevo]

well maybe its the area i live in a small town in south carolina

[kfzemx3]

yea thats probably got something to do with it, i live inside the atlanta perimeter and the way the idiots down here drive WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[never_finished]

IMO. I think the STi looks better but I remember the last gen where it was what...2 hours to change spark plugs? Nann. i'll pass. lol. Go for da EVO. Just dont get White.

2 hours? takes 20 minutes on my sti :)

And they are both great cars if taken care of. The evo can be made faster cheaper, but other cars can be made faster and cheaper then the evo, so id say drive both. Whichever you like best, go with it. I was looking at both and just happened to find a good deal on my car and jumped on it. I'd still own an evo anyday.

that is a good statement they are both great cars and i think that its just up to you. if you plan on keeping it stock they are both equal.

Both cars, are great! Go out and test drive them, get a good feel on both and really pay attention to their power and handling abilities. Like I said before, these two cars are very close to each other stock.

Im not a fanboy like some people in this thread. :p but instead of saying go with this or that, do some research, and go from there. I personally haven't run into any other problems than my tranny, and thats because I have a Wrx. You wouldn't have to worry about that with an STi. But me, with only 15-1600 dollars in mods, im alot faster than some other Evo's and STi's running around.

An 07 STi has alot more potential than the previous years, cause of it's longer gears and other small upgrades in it's motor. I have friends with Evo's, yes they're quick, but man, they're like roaches. Everywhere you look you see an Evo, lol I wouldn't like to see a car that I have twice or three times a day.

But thats just me

evo all the way. whens the last time u seen and STI run 11's on stock turbo? i have personally never seen that happen but i have seen many evos run 11's on stock turbo. mods for an evo are alot cheaper than with an STI also.

hmmm thats prolly b/c the turbos bigger?? :thinking: usually that happens?

[DUBSf22c]

I have it set to PS my sti... :goodjob::goodjob: secrets ;)



i have to ask this, my knowledge is VERY limited when it comes to the AWD systems....we have an STI on our lot that i have been using to drive around in, and the thing is beatiful, first one i have really had a chance to drive around and the car pulls hard as hell in 2nd for a stock car....but my question is what is the proper quick shifting for awd cars!?!?!?! i am use to rwd and power shifting, but in a sti with a DCCD set all the way to the rear, the car is still not able to be power shifted! so what really is the proper way to drive them. i would love to buy an sti or evo but other than insurance being out the ass, whats the proper term or way to shift them!?!?!

[DUBSf22c]

STi---- better residual (sp?) value, stronger driveline and very good trannys in the 07
EVO 9- responds amazing to mods- easy to mod - look great too.

STi sticks to the tracks more
EVO seems to becoming a 1320 beast

I wish i could have both a sti and a evo honeslty.. but that aint gunna happen

[DUBSf22c]

I pay 100 a month for full coverage with nationwide and you know how old i am :yes:

ummmm requesting a quote now~

[Maniac1]

hmmm thats prolly b/c the turbos bigger?? :thinking: usually that happens?The evo's come factory with an 16g, I think. And the Evo 9's just come with a 18-20g compressor housing, so it's not much different than the 8's. The STi 04-06 come with the VF39 which isn't that small compared to the evo's. I know my vf34 which is alittle bigger than the vf39 is almost the same size as an 18g, with a smaller compressor housing though. So there really isn't that big of a difference in turbo size, yes the evo's is slightly bigger, but we do have 0.5 liters on them. So the arguement on you have a bigger turbo, will not serve a purpose.

Edit: made some changes, for that fag fanboy, WickedIXMR.

yeah that would be great

to own an evo you have to know i would say a good bit about cars or your gonna pay out the ass in maintence and getting it modded. But if you a decent mecahnic you should be alright. I do everything on my car oil changes,clutch,cams,all fluids all of my mods were done by me thats how i can afford mine and do the mods i want

[spacelion]

If you boost your S2, you would be alot faster than both Evo and STi. Of course, heavily mod both of them and you'll have yourself a quick ass sedan. That comes with all wheel drive and you wouldn't have to worry about breaking anything, unless you go with an Evo. Lol I heard that the s2k's weakness is it's differential, right? So you would just have to baby it, but your s2000 already looks clean, I would just boost it and call it aday. :p

The diff in the S2 is it's weakness when people drag race with them. They're not made for launching really hard. I like both the STI and the EVO, but I would have to go with the STI myself. Or just get an RS coupe and stuff the 2.5 turbo in there :ninja:

Its a 16g stupid!

[Maniac1]

Its a 16g stupid!Thats why I put, "I think," before I started posting. You should know better than to come at me with remarks like that, Josh.

[Got Milk?]

TEST DRIVE THE CARS AND GET THE ONE U LIKE THE BEST.Thanks for repeating what I said, acouple pages ago. Lol

[jayjaySTI]

Thanks for repeating what I said, acouple pages ago. Lol'

o dam :( didn't see it

[GTScoob]

Even Al at dynoflash says "Subarus are a lot easier to damage the motor than Evos with bad tuning," and Al does work for both evos and stis. Of course these are all my opinions.
lol. Al at dynoflash is a joke. Every dyno he's ever posted is complete BS.


IMO. I think the STi looks better but I remember the last gen where it was what...2 hours to change spark plugs? Nann. i'll pass. lol. Go for da EVO. Just dont get White.
Again, lol. Do it once or twice and you can get it down to 30mins, you just have to remove some stuff to get to the plugs.


hmmm thats prolly b/c the turbos bigger?? :thinking: usually that happens?
Word. I wish we had a big 16G from the factory. I think the Evo turbo flows ~100cfm more than the STI turbo, that means a lot more for making power than anything else in the motor. This is why stock for stock Evos respond better to race gas and make more power without a turbo upgrade.

I like my WRX, its a lot more comfortable for a tall guy like myself. Both cars are very similar, stock turbo the Evo will go farther. Much more than that and its just how big your wallet is for both cars. The STi is pretty much indestructable stock and the tranny will hold as much power as you will ever want to make. Motor is good up to ~400whp but people have gone over that.

[DeeAOne]

What is your motivation? If it is only boost, keep what you got and boost it. If you want a boosted AWD sedan I say Evo for tuneability and top end speed. The STI is the TQ monster. Its harder to get HP's out of it though.
x2 good point.

[afwfjustin]

Turbo your S. They are more of an underdog and when you can spank an evo or sti in the blink of an eye it's more fun :D

[iRyuk]

I highly recommend you go with an Evo. I too test drove the STI and Evo before coming up with my decision.

The Subaru had some very nice torque feel to it but the handling wasn't really what I was particularly looking for.

When I test drove the Evolution I fell in love with it within acouple minutes of driving it. So I bought myself an Evo aweek later.

Don't get me wrong, the Impreza is a great car too. My sense of driving and feel just felt better in the Evo than the STI.

Either way keep us updated.

[3.5altman]

that blue evo is hott

[atlxpat]

evo 16g is bigger than the vf39

and this is an evo IX next to an evo VIII
http://i17.tinypic.com/6cxeknl.jpg

VF39's from what I hear are very prone to cracking. vf34's are usually the way to go with wrx's, i'm thinking of moving up to an evo 16g or if i want to kill myself, an 18g

[silvers2k]

Awww dang.... i cant believe youre going to retire the s2k and get into something totally different.

[TehHakingS14]

evos are teh shizel!!! reeeeee!

[Bruce Leroy]

wtf,,,


Do people just not read post dates???

[osiriskidd]

its all preference. whatever makes you happy in the long run.

i wouldn't mind either xD

[seanrg1116]

in almost every aspect the two cars are the same; all wheel drive turbo monsters. If you look at the highlights from road and track comparisions and top gear you will see that they all think they are brothers from another mother:D . BUT the evo has one huge thing going for it that the subie does not and that is a motor that has been in production for what almost 18-19 years so that should tell you which one will last longer. There was an issue of sport compact car thats cover story was 1000 horsepower evo and all 4 of the 5 cars that passed the test were street cars. The most powerful street subie can only pray for 700-800 wheel HP. so i say go with the EVO. But the subies boxer engine sounds cool as sh*t.:bump:

[Just_CHill]

wtf,,,

x2

Lol, good times. I wonder if he got the STI or the Evo...........

[AnthonyF]
