[drdos]

What would you choice?

I am really thinking about selling my celica and getting a nissan 240 and doing a sr20 swap. but i really dont want to leave the celica family.

What would you do?

Pro's about the celica w/3sgte

Semi fast or what i have seen so far. havent relaly been impressed yet.
Light
Good looking
nice inetior
not to many where i live.

Cons with the celica

FWD, is probley the most major one.
no one really likes them for some werid reason

thats all i can think about for that


Pros about the 240 with sr20det
Very fast, ive seen some crazy speed's with that swap.
sr20det is a awesome motor comes with forged internals stock
RWD > fwd

Cons about the 240
On the heavier side
not that good looking. unless you do a sliva conversion ( then its sweet)
alot of people have them
not that nice of interior.

its takes money and time to make a 240 with a sr as fast as you see in the videos that float around the internet

compairing the two cars, they will both usually recive the same mods in during the swap process such as intake, full exhaust some form of boost control and fuel control and possibly intercooler upgrades.

they are pretty even cars, major difference being that more parts are available for SR's. but similarly, if you have a 2nd gen 3sgte, then you can get replacement parts no problem, with an sr it may take some time and sure as hell would cost more money

the only thing with the swaped celica is that its fwd. i hate torque steer. my st-t had it but only if i wasnt paying attention. while shopping for my new car, i test drove a neon srt4, an 04 model, and despite having LSD, it torque steered horribly, i almost hit the median.

so im gonna have to be with super on this one. for me its a toss up. i like the looks and driving of both cars and both have good potential, the celica looks better, and RWD>FWD

oh and btw, i now have an AWD vehicle

so

AWD>RWD>FWD
