Hey stephen lee that was a joke about having too much torque at the wheels. Members always argue the 1mz vs beams motor

That's the plan
Drive it an start saving back for brake upgrades Like most of you know already the modding on this will be slowing way down now that my swap is running desent because I'm going to try an get lizs crv paid off an buy me a new daily And I've had 3 cars in mind but I keep coming back to the same problem I really want another Toyota. Witch leave me with 2 option a 7gc or frs And since the frs is about 12k more than I really wanna spend I'm probablygonna look into a 04+ Gts Or maybe ( big big maybe ) a corolla But still haven't ruled out the other 3 non yotas -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

Go with the 03 and 04 GT-S. Has the higher RPM limit and the lift bolt issue with the 2ZZ-GE was resolved.

the 7th gens are easy on gas... but an 03 corolla S would be BALLER.
Also if you are even seriously considering selling a few of your 20+ cars.... and you're looking for a "new" car I would personally own nothing else but a new ford focus.... might consider a new Mazda 3. How do you argue with 40mpg? lol my .02 --------------------  |

Box - those are the years I've been looking at cuz I like the styling changes on top of what you already said
Trace- I have no plans to sell any of them. That's why I'm not looking at a brand new car But I am open to ideas in the 7-12k range Just has to have a manual option an fun to drive Saving gas is good but not when it bores you to death Friends don't let friends rock a Hyundai Didn't Han teach you anything lol -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

Hmm, you're almost into C5 Vette territory.
