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 |
