yea... already thoght bout that... but mivec turbo with 2.0/2.1L stroker kit very hard to find. i've tried a few evo's though but somehow still prefer the mivec especially when it kicks in. to buy a full halfcut will already coz me quite a lot. to make the evo engine become a monster, quite big amount of money will be needed. that's my opinion...
then don's buy a halfcut lar... get a floor engine + gb. Then sell off your GSR parts and gb, u may top up a little for the Evo.
Then u'll save hell of alot in EVO after market parts. Ready market forged oversized pistons/2.2 strokers/performance cam with unlimite specs/retainers + valve and countless ready market performance parts with 1/2 the price of GSR.
One good example is the cam. Brian crower 4G6X is only half the price of JUN 4G9X.
4G63 Stroker kit is everywhere and 4G9X have to custom made. After u got forged stroker + pistons for high boost, u'll start to worry about your cylinder wall, because of thinner and lighter block compare to 4G6. Then, u may think of adding sleeve for cylinder wall hardening...
4G63??? No need to think about all that.
And how much do you need to spend in order to make a 11-12sec GSR...? It's f*cking hard... How many GSR can do it..?
Well, Malaysia already have a 8+ secs EVO...
The truth is, GSR is still a GSR... sorry if I've offended anyone... Just my personal point of view and personal experience... U may disagree...
