4/3/2024 0 Comments Gtr evolution mods![]() ![]() MOST GTR owners love the JDM/Modding scene, want exotic car performance or better and thanks to companies such as HKS, AMS, IVEYTUNE and COBB its much easier to mod than exotics and really get insane WHP with just bolt ons. MOST evo owners wish they had a GTR, are working towards a GTR or try to justify why their evo is better, faster or cheaper than a GTR. MOST lancer owners wish they had an evo, are working towards an evo or modified it to look like an evo. So basically my take on it is: ( FLAME SUIT ON ) It's in the official owners manual of 2012 GTRs. It's in the owner's manual of the GTR that they will deny warranty for driving the car with VDC off. Not hard conclusive "proof" maybe, but evidence none the less.Īnd I'm not talking about abuse damage either. If you can't find a single forum post about Porsche denying a warranty claim, that's at least evidence of Porsche doing the right thing. ![]() Same thing with the GTR, just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.unless you're willing to pay the consequences for your actions.I agree it doesn't prove anything, nothing would really prove it except hard numbers from the manufacturers itself, which we don't have access to, What Google does do is paint a picture. Should I expect Mitsubishi to cover the damage when the clutch goes out? When the transfer case explodes? When I sheer off 1st gear? No way in hell. I know plenty of Evo guys with mods and track days who have still gotten lots of repairs covered under warranty, but a Google search on Evo warranty coverage would tell you otherwise.įact of the matter is, if you beat the hell out of, modify, or track your car which is sold as a street vehicle, why would you expect warranty to cover any damage caused by any other use? I can go outside, rev my engine to the limiter, and dump the clutch repeatedly. I'm willing to bet a much larger percentage of GTR owners are on internet car forums compared to Porsche owners. GTRs I see as more weekend/track day cars, which seem like a bit of a waste to daily drive. It's got four doors, is plenty comfortable in MR trim, and has enough power to be exciting on the streets without being dangerous. Does that mean Miatas are "better" then GTRs? No, they are just a different car with a different set of skills. However, the GTR falls on it's face in autox and other tight events because it's just too heavy. It beats the Evo in that environment, no question. GTR is great in it's element, on a dry full length road course. It's a different car with a different set of design parameters (beat the 911 Turbo) with a different set of compromises from the Evo. I don't get why people are so obsessed with claiming one car is better then another. MOST evo owners wish they had a GTR, are working towards a GTR or try to justify why their evo is better, faster or cheaper than a GTR.Flaming on I mean, I'm not trying to sell scare tactics or anything, but simple 5 minute research proves almost everything you've said is wrong. Meanwhile, a quick search on Nissan denying warranty claims gives pages and pages and pages of results. the gt3 is, and porsche is generally more forgiving about damage to them, esp when the event happens at a pca event.After some pretty extensive searching, the only thing I saw Porsche deny a warranty claim for was the PCCB braking system used at the track, which is a *braking system* which is generally a wear item anyway.ĭuring my searching, I saw several instances of modified 911 Turbos having plenty of warranty claims after track use with no issues from dealerships. ![]() porsche denies warranty claims on tracked turbos, because the turbo is NOT a track car. Stop buying the scare hype thats out there.Īlso, 911T is an AWEFUL track car. check nagtroc (i read every day) and you'll see this to be so. They have since stood very well behind their warranties and cars. Nissan had a bad track record w/ the original 2009s. you two seem to be fighting back and forth quite a bit w/ faulty info.
