What would you choice?

I am really thinking about selling my celica and getting a nissan 240 and doing a sr20 swap. but i really dont want to leave the celica family.

What would you do?

Pro's about the celica w/3sgte

Semi fast or what i have seen so far. havent relaly been impressed yet.
Light
Good looking
nice inetior
not to many where i live.

Cons with the celica

FWD, is probley the most major one.
no one really likes them for some werid reason

thats all i can think about for that


Pros about the 240 with sr20det
Very fast, ive seen some crazy speed's with that swap.
sr20det is a awesome motor comes with forged internals stock
RWD > fwd

Cons about the 240
On the heavier side
not that good looking. unless you do a sliva conversion ( then its sweet)
alot of people have them
not that nice of interior.

^^^ What year is that 97s?

Because as I said my mates stock SR20DE is only about 130 or 40 ish. That is probably a '96 or '97 I think.

Not that the back flicks out quickly, but rather that the steering simply FAILS if you're driving straight at speed and then swerve

Drifting and racing aren't emergency handling- you're taking controlled turns etc etc


To start a drift, usually you go straight then swerve biggrin.gif Race tracks have things like chicanes in them. biggrin.gif What do you actually mean by a steering failure? If the back isn't snapping out then what are you talking about?
