but i dont really know if it is needed? the only reason i ask is because every where i find one they all want way to much for them or they are to far away but i have found about 12 gst that i like and that are in good conition for rebuilding and modifying

GSX FTW as well... awd is a HUGE plus, specially when you get up to around 400hp... you wont have ANY traction issues with that, you're almost limited to under 400hp with a gst cause you'll never hook up ur tires

alright then i guess the only other reason why you'd get it is cause it makes you feel like a bad *** when you say gsX instead of a gsT haha, the X always sounds cooler

Get a T4. Hes right, though, the TSi I have... gets like NO traction.
