rx7s hmmm theres an idea. arent they on the unreliable side? well i havea dsm so that says alot. celica all trac? hmmm never heard of it ill have to look into it. i am leaning towards a gsx just because i like the 2g body style and with awd it will be awesome up here in the snow. and easy to work on. if anyone else has any other ideas for sporty turbod dd let me know

240's i dont believe ever had a factory Turbo car, and the 300's from what ive heard are a PITA to work on just because of how congested everything is (similiar 3000gt)

and wether or not a supra or rx7 is better than an evo is really up to the owner. Everyone has their own opinion on that. But i was talking about the older rx7's(FC's).

Also just FYI the celica all-trac is AWD

Yeah the 240sx's are easy to work of lots of room. I tried working on a 300zx and it was a b**** and a half. Had to take the front bumper just to work on it. And IMO a supra is gunna take mods better than a evo anyday. But once it comes to handling the evo will take it anyday. So it all depends on wut ur looking to do with the car

I know i thought we were talking about looking for cars around 5-7k. Thats why i was sugesting some of the older cars like the MKIII supra and the FC RX-7

also guys if your just looking around online and come across any cars like we are talking about for sale would ya send me a pm im always looking but cant really find the sweet deals (like sebba) and the more eyes the better. looking forward to seeing some rides i havent yet. even if its not a gsx any cheaper cars with turbo is pretty much what im looking for but no fwd. what do you think about the audi awd sedan?
