Is our car faster than a 7th gen gt? I was just looking at the specs and they only have 10 more hp than us(gt) and we have about 10 more Tq. So does anybosy know which is faster assuming that both were being driving my equal drivers. If im wrong on the specs can someone clarify. confused.gif

Im going to have to call you on that one. The 3sgte has alot more low end power then a 7th gen celica gts. So the gt4 would smoke it, maybe the 7th gen would start to gain ground once its going but the gt4 would still have a significant lead. Even the 5sfe rivals the 7th gen gts motor, I was looking at a 6th gen and the owner had a 7th gen gts, he said he was dissapointed in the 7th gen, he thought his 6th gen was faster then his 7th gen gts.

I'm not talking drag here. Of course the gt-4 would win drag... but track racing... I doubt it. Weight is the issue when it comes to track racing a gt-4. The 7th gen GTS is almost 1000 pounds lighter, stock, than a gt4.

And the 5sfe vs a 2zzge... heh...that's funny. A 6th gen GT is over a second slower stock than a 7th gen GTS. That's about 2 cars lengths. The 7th gen GTS is simply superior in every way, chassi design, suspension, power, than the 6th gen GT. The reason the GTS feels weak, is that it is fairly modest till around 5000 rpms or so when VVTL-i kicks in. The 5sfe has a very broad low power band, but a very weak high-end powerband... so it feels a lot faster when you just drive it around, in its highest power/torque spots, below 4500rpms. And if your friend has a 7th gen GTS AUTO...then is 6th gen probably is faster. The auto 7th gen GTS are piss slow...
