does anyone know much about the toyota caldina. that is the only vehical the 3rd gen 3sgte comes in right?

if so, what are the diff. between it and the 2nd gen besides the turbo and map sensor, are there any diff in the internals and things like cams and cam gears

i had never heard of a caldina before and no one i know from here (meridian( has ever heard of it, i did see it on GT4 and it has a 2.0L 1998cc motor that has 255 HP and its turbo so that does sound an awfull lot like the 3rd gen 3s but i wasn't sure
\any help is much appriciated, thanks guys

Right, I know someone with a Caldina (it's his daily driver, he has a modified ST205 for the weekend).

The 4th gen doesn't have much over the 3rd gen. It gets VVTi II think, which is good. It also has a air/air interwarmer, which is a step backwards.

It's also 4 speed slush-o-matic only (althought apparently the gearbox is pretty good).

Nice wagon. Cheap these days too.

Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000
Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.
