first, is it possible to make my celica GT ..... awd
jokes im really looking into buying a gt-four (import), and i want to know (since i want to use it all year long) how it performe in the snow. i know the awd systeme work like a charm in summer, but compared to those suby and audi how does the gt-four awd perform in snow  (didnt know where to post but i think handling is the best place) This post has been edited by chode: Dec 12, 2008 - 10:52 AM --------------------  |

Even just driving a front wheel drive car w/LSD makes a huge difference in the snow. FWD w/LSD and ABS is where it's at for snow driving if you can't get 4WD or AWD.

I miss it, but I'm not ready to pay $400 for a replacement hub assembly just to get the sensor back...  -------------------- |
