Well thanks to much convos with Igotta5sfeturbo i've decided to buy an eclipse. I'm gonna try to shoot for a 98 GS-t with low miles if possible. But no matter what, it's gonna be turboed and it's gonna kick the sh!t outta my celi. If need be, i'm gonna sell my celi and leave everything in it, ie. intake, exhaust, blah blah blah. I don't really think this is news breaking info, but just heads up for whoever cares.

Dude, if you want a car that can be made to destroy all, get a VW or Audi with a 1.8t. It's the best tuner-friendly performance engine made today.(in my opinion)

I would have to agree, but I see all mitsu's as a waste of money, so... Just my opinion. I've had many friends with bad happenings...

Yall are just mad cause you know me and igotta are right!
I still love my celi, don't get me wrong. But i don't wanna spend $10k on my celi when i can spend $2-3k on an eclipse and get the same results. |

I agree, but why spend 10k on a celica, or 2-3k on a Eclipse when you could have any VW with the 1.8t and pay 2k for a k04 turbo and downpipe?(225+hp and over 300 mind shattering lbs of torque!) Jon |

why do that? if you have the money do the 3sgte swap. st185 or if you have more st205, and work on that. I think that would be a better bet then a dsm. IMHO

Im gonna be getting an eclipse as well...as for getting a turbo..i might just get a GS and get the Hahn Racecraft Kit..stage one is like 1.5 sec 1/4 mile quicker than gs-t...Stage 2 was like 2.5 sec quicker..or something like that..and as for crankwalk as far as ive heard it doesent really happen on the non turbo which is a different engine than the turbo..someone correct me if im wrong though...

in my opinion, the dsm looks alot better than the damn audi and vw's......
if you wanted a more luxuary car.....then fork out the extra money for the vw or audi.......but personally, i would get the dsm......as long as they were taken care of, you shouldn't have alot of problems out of it |

Not necessarily..A GS-T will top out higher if you want more top end..but of course a GSX is just gonna rape a GS-T off the line..so it really depends on what you want...there is a GS that runs 10's and that is FWD...i personally would like a GSX just cant find one for cheap enough which means ill probably have to settle for the GS-T or GS and then get the Hahn Racecraft Kit |

well that's true, AWD does rob power but not only is the traction when launching better, it will handle better and be able to take turns with more power. but atleast get a turbo dsm. it would be a waste of time and money starting out with a NA version. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
