EVO 10 CONFIRM SPECS 16082007

[En0203]

I reach 6 gear everytime I drive because I shift at 1,300rpm. Don't even need to go above 2,000rpm. So yeah I hit 6 and cruise at 1,200rpm thereabouts. Why not?

 

bro, ur car's low end only turbo diesel can match leh...

[Mormort]

Heard that the engine is totally different from evo 8 & 9. what will be the price at ?

Have a Good day bros.

Cheers :)

wow. too bad i can only afford the 2nd fiddle of evo. LANCER. haha.

or evo 7 at most.

[Weichien]

bro poker. what horse u riding

[Falc]

6 speed more suited for sports cars mah.

 

STI is 6 speed, WRX 5 speed. All the Honda Rs nowadays are 6 speed. Even hot hatches like Focus ST, GTI and Megane RS are 6 speeders.

 

Now EvoX GSR MT only 5 speed. How to pass? Only rationale is they want to sell more SST.

[Ashley1108]

I agree with you thou.

Actually to me, there's both pros and cons for 5 speed and 6 speed yea?

It all ties down to the user perference only.

Dun you all agree?

 

Anyway i really learn alot from this thread i started. To be frank, i only know minimal knowledge on turbo charged car as i'm more active in SHC forum and most of my customers and friends are from there.

Now with EVO X, i'm learning more things in this thread and also evoclub.

 

Like what they always say,

Every day is a learning phase for every man

Cheers :)

[Falc]

No worries.

 

Actually 5 speed should suffice for TC cars with huge torque. Eg LGT Spec B 280hp only 5 speed, IIRC. But then Legacy is not the same as Evo.

 

While it's user preference, the manufacturer should consider the typical user profile. I don't think people who buy EVO GSR, somemore, will not kiasu to want the best out there (6 speed) even if they may not find it that useful.

[Ashley1108]

That's true thou.

However don't you think there might be some reason for doing it this way?

Any speculation apart from claiming that Japan are trying to push their TC-SST

[Porker]

My horse has 3350 brake husky power.

 

Max torque at 1,300rpm and stays flat all the way till 5,000rpm hehe

[Masschaoz]

nt true, im currently drivin a CT9A and at 80km/hr on 5th gear, rpm is at abt 3k liao. 6 speeder are gd for drag keekee. and also enable the car to be kept at optimal powerband. but 5 speeder also has it pros too. the pullin gear on highend is impressive keekee.

 

i second ur opinion on this... kekeke.. i always hit 6th gear almost everywhere also.. i love our 1st gear pullllll... hahahah/..

[Wrcfan]

Actually on expressways not possible not to hit e 6 speed, how to cruise normally at 100km/h with the rpm above 3k on 5th? Maybe on track like PG where a 6speeder not appropriate cos got to shift alot as band too close, e 5speed's more idea.

My guess, either pushing SST or ... cut cost.

Ok one more, maybe 5 gear is enough to match the engine characteristics perfectly already.

[Vblaster_w211]

Here's the reason why 6MT is used for DC5R. It is an NA engine that produces its power band at high revs. Hence we need close ratios to maintain that high revs to extract the power. However, that'll mean a high rpm for cruising also, hence the provision of the 6th gear.

 

For TC engines, it may not need the 6th gear, as TC power and torque bands usually kick in a bit lower, so the gear ratios need not be so close.

[Mmatrix]

Whats the diff??

 

GSR SST = 138k

GSR SST premium = 153k

[Ashley1108]

Mainly it's cosmetic differences.

I'll post it up tml or monday. My equipment and spec sheet for evo X is in the office lol.

 

Anyway the price above mention is not from me.

IcIc. Thanks for the insight coz i really not very sure

Thus there's pros and cons for 5spd and 6spd for a TC car, however to summarise, which one will be a better choice in terms of performance for a TC car? Sorry i'm not very good in TC cars so need to learn from you guys to become this ---->

[Falc]

There's no one size fits all answer. Though 5sp may fit TC better than NA, still it depends. So await your 5sp MT customer review. I suspect the 6sp auto MT will be a much more popular choice for GSR though.

[Ashley1108]

I'll definitely post the reviews up very soon.

One of my colleague getting the GSR 5MT, thus i'll be able to test it and leave my comments here.
