  10. Well were do i start? in 2003 i bought a run down black 1991 gto cheap from the auctions. After rebuilding the engine and gearbox including leather interior i decided to sell it. It was such a beautiful car to drive, very responsive from low down right up to its 7500 rpm cutout. Around corners it handled extremly well due to its aftermarket coilovers which it came with. So i thought to myself what do i buy know? What else ? a 1997 model GTO. This one is also black with the optional glass roof, leather, and electronic aero spiolers (were an option after 1994) and 18 inch deep dish bbs style rims. Mods were boost controller and exhaust. If i was you and had the extra cash go for the later model they came out in 1994. The advantanges are 6 speed getrag box which is stronger than the 5 spd also the transfer case is upgraded. Brakes were also upgraded larger diameter front and rear. The turbos were slightly larger, not sure exactly though. Performance wise there quite good. A mate of mine had a 2005 porshe 911 s4 (4wd) 3.6 ltr and raced it 4 times one night, from a stand still, beat it every time and reached speeds of 160kph. My mate now drives the new porche tt turbo model, paid over 300 grand and he always ask me for a rematch???? But i must agree with some of the other guys coments, they arent so easy to repair and modify these cars. The only problem i have experienced with parts is the wait, mostly 2 weeeks from japan. when i went to do some more work on it, i decided it was too expensive and was hearing from alot of bad storys. So my advise would be if you like this kind of car buy it. If you leave it alone (apart from a boost controller and exhaust)it will be a very reliable car and you will have alot of fun and attract plenty of attention on the streets. If its performance your looking for, buy a GTR, or if you cant make up your mind and you can afford it, what the hek! BUY BOTH!! I did.
  11. i have a standard 1994 r32 gtr running stock turbos. What advantage do these turbos have over my stock ones?
