Shimy Type R

Sorry all, but I've gone over to that side....

Here's the old motor,



And for those of you who haven't seen it, here's the new motor,





Ive had 13 scooby's now and I fancyed a change, so I thought why not!?

But I do miss that sound....

What do you all think?

Cheers Shimy.

I didn't like the Evo at first to be honest, but after driving it for a few days I started to get use to it, and now 2 weeks later I love it...

The Scooby was a much more agresive drive so it feels like your going faster, where the Evo feels smoother and just gets stronger and stronger as the revs build.

The 0-60 is a bit quicker than the scooby, but as I said the scooby is more harsh.

Im on **** tyres at the moment and there different from the front and the back so that will be affecting handling a lot but it allready handles nearly as good as the scooby did on Toyo's.

I was excpecting to find the evo a bit tame, and more friendly to drive, but when you start chucking it through bends it can get very hairy!
The AYC puts more power to the out side wheels on the bend so it steers more direct but that means that your back end will come out easyer than a scooby, but as soon as your back end lets go the AYC shifts the power to the oposite side to stop it from fish tailing.

Baisicaly more controled fun.

One big advantage the Evo does have is the build quality is a lot beter..... But it does'nt have that sound.

Cheers Shimy.
