yea i raced my friends stock 91 non-turbo mr2 and i got killed. i have to say that i didnt believe weight made that much of a difference, considering we both have a 5s-fe.

I havent been able to do a burn out or lay down tread, not that I want to, it always just grips and takes off. But I dont like wasting my tires so I dont really try  And Id recommend just turboing the 5sfe, it'll cost just as much money, less if he can do the fabrication himself. And atleast he knows what hes working with, the import world is full of snakes, you never know what your going to recieve when you order somethinig, especially an engine thats sat in a junk yard and then made its way half way around the world. unless he gets a usdm 3sgte then that might be an idea. Just remember that turbo engines go through alot and most arent taken care of. You should see the list of parts the previous owner of my car had to get. |
