I have a 95 GS Eclipse FWD is it worth it to switch over to GSX or should I just throw a Turbo on my GS?

Here in my view are the pros and cons of each:\n\nAdding a custom turbo to the GS: pros: you can select the turbo, it doesn't have to be the stock GSX turbo, but you have a lot of good choices, for example the Mitsubishi TD05-16G or TD05-18G.  Cons: you will need bigger injectors, fuel pump, and engine management. I highly recommend custom dynotuning for safety and performance. Torque-steer: with FWD and additional torque, you will encounter significant torque steer. This shouldn't be a problem if you are aware of it, and drive carefully. You will probably need a new clutch to handle the additional power.\n\nGSX: pros: less torque steer due to AWD. Injectors and pump are already sufficient.  cons: AWD drivetrain will have more driveline loss of horsepower in exchange for better handling.

There is an easy answer to this question:\n\nGo get fit for a new 460 cc Titanium driver....you're guaranteed to get more distance with the new large clubheads!

You won't be going anywhere without a gearbox.\nBesides, horsepower has nothing to do with your ultimate top speed.  Horsepower is just a definition of work over time (Acceleration).\nRight now there is a spacecraft traveleing at over 100,000mph that has only 1/20,000th of a horsepower.\n\nIf you do happen to get the gearbox and select the best gear ratios you will probably be aerodynamically limited to about 132mph.  That is of course, if you haven't already turned in to a greasy spot.\n\nPlease ask your friends to keep us posted.\nYou may win the Darwin Award.

mmmm, 92 toyota corolla, i won't say is a good car to do swap for sure.  here is the thing, if you wanna do a awd it is going to cost you more then the value of the car for sure.  the engine probably going to cost you about $5000 *celica GT+4 engine if you can find one* and then the awd plus rear tran axis need to be change all that.  you probably will looking at some where about almost $10,000 to do everything.  remember you need to change and cut on the fram too, basicly you going to lose the safity struacture on the car.  if i was you, i won't do it, just safe the money to get a new car man.

ford mustang gt, for 27 grand you get one fully loaded, and 5 seconds to 60, w/ that extra three grand you can buy a supercharger. The 350Z's okay but it doesn't have a v8, and a lot less torque, something like 280 v 320 for the stang, and the stang has more low end power. The WRX Sti does not have a lot of luxury, it definitely doesn't look good. Also the VW GTI that has luxury its decent looking and the dsg is nice, or you can go w/ the a3 s-line but thats a little pricier. A used C5 vette is a good deal and you don't have the instant depreciation, h/e the interior isn't its strong suit, the gto on the other hand has a great interior and great performance, it looks clean and its at the end of it's run b/c of emissions standards changing (boo) and you can get a good deal on taht 400 hp even less than the 'stang\nand its resell value should be pretty decent cause they didn't sell alot. I think your best bets would be a new stang, or the gto, maybe a used vette, or a used M3

Short answer: Install a large turbo.\n\nIt depends on what type of engine you have.  If you're running a KA18DE, good luck.  You'll have to tune that engine about as heavily as possible to take it up to that much power.  However, if you have an SR20 engine, you're in a much better situation, as those can withstand much more power.  \n\nIf you have a KA18DE engine, I would suggest saving your money for a SR20DET engine, and having the SR20DET rebuilt.   That will cost more than your current budget, but will be worth it. Then, install a large turbo on the SR20DET.  I would guess that all that work may cost as much as $8k-10k, depending on how the SR20 market is right now.  \nYour other option with the KA is to install a turbo, and hope for the best. I don't know if you'll be able to pull 300HP though, especially with a tired old engine.\n\nNOTE: If your engine is naturally aspirated and hasn't been recently rebuilt, I wouldn't reccomend installing a turbo, as you're likely to blow it.\n\n**for reference** "S13" refers to an older model  (86-92?) Nissan 240SX\n\nDisclaimer: I drive a Mazda RX7 (FC3s), and have not personally  done any work of this nature on an S13.\n\nFeel free to send me a private message (I think you can on these boards) and update me/ask for more info  on the situation.

first get a dedicated car. i'm assuming you don't mean drag race. then learn how to drive this will make the biggest difference. don't worry about engine mods for a while. focus on sus. brakes safety and tires. when you have at least an ok set up in those you can look to the engine. as for cars get rwd. fwd can be good but i really just ask one question why bother? as for cars bmw: 535i e28, 325i e30, 2002. toyota: mr2 mk1, mr2 mk2, mr2 spyder, corolla gts ae86. mazda miata, rx7 honda s2000

You better find out if your transmission can handle the extra power your planning on adding with that turbo.  I would suggest you do more research on this before you buy it.

Don't bother!!!  If you want to run with the big dogs ditch the econo box (honda) and get a real sports car.  You'll spend a lot more money trying to get that honda up to the level of performance you want. Just get a V-8 and be happy.

I like the rsx but, i've heard the Evo is one fast *** car to go against.

With great care and a bunch of money! Both engines will fit and work but transmissionn is different and axles differ also.  If you have the complete car the other engine is coming out of...  Then you have all of the parts you need. If not.....  Yer makin' a mistake!

Honda is cheap, but will only take you so far, and its FWD.  Nissan's Z-series (I have a Z31 300ZX) is very fast and very cheap, and the 240sx is good car for engine swaps.  Toyota's best is either the supra or the MR2, the MR2 is very lightweight so it has an excellent power:weight ratio, but there is not much working room around the engine.  The mkIII supra's good but harder to find.  Go to www.ebaymotors.com and look at pictures and price to get a better idea.

check tire rack, you probly can w/ some supspension mods, though for the cost you'd be much better off buyingsomething much better, like upgrading to the ss, or getting a charger/ magnum or 300 (RWD beats all)

x1 and x2 are about the same, i own an x1, great great bike if you are doing dirt racing and air..NOT for freestyle because it has no pegs and isnt fit for pegs

Yes, you can supercharge it...\nBut a turbocharger is SO much more fun!!!\n\nHe He!
