Well, since winter is starting and I am not planing on doing anything to my celi cuz its a 1.8L Auto and its mainly a SoundQuality car now. Well now I am planing on saving up money for my next project, by next summer I'll probably have around 6-8G's to spend on it. So here are two choises that I have to make.
I wanna run the car all year round so it will be like my daily driver. I live in NY. 1) MR2 91-94 and swap 3SGTE into it. 2) 240SX 91-94 and swap SR20DET into it. Tell me what you think, i am pretty sure you will say to go with Toyota cuz of celica and all. Thank you -------------------- <<AKA THA RUSSIAN>>

QUOTE(Akimbo @ Sep 13, 2006 - 10:15 PM) [snapback]479484[/snapback] SR's are cheaper to get horsepower from. I haven't really ever seen a reliable MR2, either. Look at rickyB 350rwhp reliable engine, im on 400+rwhp reliable as well. I love the 3s if you look in the right places, but depending on your area the sr20 would be hazarderous to PD. But both are boost friendly, not as boost friendly as a 4g63 but still a very responsive motor. the reason a lot of the mr2s arnt reliable is becasue people throw on teeny tiny turbos (Ct26/ct20b/ct27) and boost 20psi on them. I havent had ANY extra problems with my mr2 than anything else, oil change, retoruqe headstuds once a year, timing belt every 60k, basic stuff |
