So someone told me today that it's a fairly straightforward project to convert my FWD 94 GT to and AWD. He said the chassis is the same, just need the drive train, differential and axles. Is this true? And if so, is it really that easy? I'm sure there is some info on the forums already, but couldn't easily find it.

I know I'm on the wrong topic, but I need help: I'm driving a Celica T20 1.8 with 115PS, I know you're all laughing and thinking how sweet, he's driving a little Celica, but I'm a student, so I can't afford too expensive cars.
 The point is, that I want more power and now I'm asking you, what to do. Are there affordable and LEGAL kits to turn up the small-one or should I think of buying a GT-FOUR? In fact I'd like to have a GT-FOUR, but I don't know how high the fun factor is with an AWD, because it is pretty high with mine (eventhough it's not very powerful).  So, I'm asking you: Tuning kit for the small-one or buy a GT-FOUR? Thanks for replying.

Modifications to the 7A-FE can be done for small money, whereas trading up to another car will obviously mean a larger investment. Do not expect any significant power gains from your current engine; fully optimizing intake and exhaust flow will bring you up between 120 and 125 horsepower. Otherwise, you can slap a turbocharger on it, but at that point you may as well invest a bit and make the trade to the GT-4. Welcome to the forum, by the way. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]
