celica, then swap... 3kgt's are very nice cars, but there pretty big and pretty common. but if you went 3kgt definitly get the vr4.
PS There is a 3kgt around here with pearl white paint, its beutiful but I think celica's are more beutiful! |

Celica, those 3K's are just too big for me. The VR4's are pretty fast, but its just not the type of car i would want.

Dont go with the 3000gt. Those are trouble. My good friend has one and has done nothing but thrown money at it. Plus there is no aftermarket for them. I mean about the same amount as for the celica. But with the celica you can do the swap and upgrade from there. My friend after 2yrs of having his 3000 VR4 is still trying to find parts. Oh, and the 3000gt IS front wheel drive the VR4 is all wheel drive.

yeah, not many parts for then at all. they are very nice cars when everything on them is working. there are way too many things that can break on that car. a 300zx TT would be cool, but of all the TT jap cars from the 90's, the vr4 is the cheapest. another thing about the v6 TT cars, first of all, from seeing them, i kno that its almost impossible to see at least one of the turbos on the vr4 and you cant see either of the 300zx turbos. that also means that they are crammed into small spaces and you cant really upgrade to signifigantly bigger turbos. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

yeah, im really going towards celica, BUT i really want a 3000 because im sure you can make that go faster that a celica with a swap (mainly because celica is 2wd(front wheels) and the 300 vr4 is awd so it has more potential but... i wish... mmm I WANNA GT-FOUR!

Hmm, I got totally ripped apart by a dodge stealth tt the other day. And I dunno if the 3kgtt comes in the twinturbo. But if it does then they are pretty fast, but heavy. And overall, chicks absolutely dig my car and well... its all about the chicks man.

Honestly, if you are looking for a serious in your face performance car, get a 240SX and swap in a s-14 SR-20 det. I love my celica, but If I wanted anything over 300hp, I'd get a 240.

the stealth RT/TT is a mechanical twin of the 3000gt vr4 both are TT. and a celica with a 3sgte will own a vr4 from a roll, but nothing beats the vr4 at launching power -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

the 240's are nice, but, for looks I would have to either have an s14a or an s15, and I think the 3s-gte is more potent than the sr20det, just MO
