Default found a great deal!

Last night me and my dad drove to tampa to check out a 3000gt it was suppossed to be a sl 2wd but the guy said it had turbos but they werent working. It ended up being a 92 vr4 with a boost leak and a very clean body and awesome interior the guy said since the turbos werent working his mom wanted to sell it for 3000$ Needless to say we bought it and are going to pick it up on saturday.

either way, they can make some killer power.

very doubtful there's a very heavily modded one around here and his best time is an 11.9, mostly low 12's though, not that impressive to me. and this is HEAVILY MODDED, so i don't think one would take me stock unless i was stock also.

Hmmm 4wd works miracles for launching then you have to catch up to a twin turbo v6 not seeing that happenin and we have alot of gooides going on it from the old vr4 so itll be a 12 second car within a few weeks. And if it took theat guy alot of mods to get that time hes a ------- tool lmao

mine too, but i do it with one turbo and 4 cylinders either way, they're nice cars, but i think it may surprise you how much extra power it takes to make up for the extra weight. say for instance a certain mod nets you 20 whp on a civic, you notice that ---- big time, 20 whp on a 4k+ lb car isn't as noticable. but nice find none the less

i think they ran a 14.8 stock, not that fast for the money, but still faster than a stock honda (not the s2000)
