Talking Maybe EVO suspension?

Do you guys think that since the EVO has such amazing handling, that we can get EVO coilovers and strucks...(all the best handling features of it) put on our cars? This would give us amazing handling!

I'm not going to touch this one, but I hope it's a joke.

Maybe we could get some of the butt-ugly styling of the Evo too?

(Sorry - I just don't understand the hype of the Evo - I guess it is all about performance and not about style?)

you do realize part of the reason the Evo handles so well is because it has two differentials (or is it 3, I always forget) PLUS AWD. The Suspension is probably only 20-25 percent of that equation

Is he serious? I can never tell if outrageous statements are sincere or a just someone trolling to fire someone else up..

I think the closest you can get is to put an EVO badge on the rear and buy a really big wing for the trunk. Your ride will be so fast that no one will even notice the suspension.

We got comedians in the house!

Seriously, any suspensions made for the EVO will not fit on our cars physically, let alone the suspension for the EVO is specifically tuned for, you guessed it, the EVO. What works for one car doesn't always work for another.

The EVO's great handling characterisitcs do not come solely from the suspension. There are other factors as well which the G35 doesn't have. The EVO chasis has many welds on it that makes it stiff and rigid. It also has a full-time AWD system with Active Center Differential, front helical torque-sensing limited slip differential, and rear 1.5 way limited-slip differential.

BTW there are already a plethora of coilovers out there for the G35/350Z, some which can provide that awesome handling you are seeking such as the Tein Flex, JIC FLT-A2, etc. etc.

Go back and look up some of the other threads he has started lately. I think he starts typing whatever comes into his head.
