when dealing with high horsepower 3sgte's...how bad is it to have FWD. are you guys with swaps in your celica's spinning your tires too much to make the car fun to drive? the reason i ask is because i read people hating on FWD all the time, saying RWD is the only way to go (it IS more fun), but im almost done swapping a 3sgte+lsd mr2 tranny into my celi. my goals are to have it around 300-350hp before too long.
what are your opinions on high HP and FWD |

if you have 15s with crappy tires, you will spin like crazy when u floor it.
right now i got 17s with kumho tires. never had any problems with this setup. the 3sgte just feels right in a 6th gen. i can honestly say that if i had to choose having my swap be fwd or awd, i would pick fwd. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
