Ok i got my 97 GT with 174k miles and a slipping clutch, i eventually want a car
with a turbo and was planning on puting a turbo in the gt or swapping the engine
however i live in new england and everytime it snows i cant drive
nowhere because my car slides all over the road even with snow tires, this is why i also
want a AWD car but its more expensive and even more money to turbo it. I need
some opinions here, what do you guys think?

i say wrx
i just recently got a 03 wrx after wrecking my celica. it is soo much fun to drive. i live in pa so i wanted awd for winter too. i havent driven in snow yet so i can say for sure that its better but it almost has to be. you can find an 02 or 03 with low miles for under 10k easily. and besides subies sound so sweet with a 3 inch TBE biggrin.gif

as for comparing to the 3s i cant say from my own experience cuz ive never driven a swapped celica but with awd you can handle a lot more power than fwd. just adding an exhaust and reflash to a wrx gets you to like 230 whp. i doubt a 3s could do that.
