no they're dogs. the only ones worth even talking about is the awd turbo eclipse ( i forget the model designation) other than that they're nothing to worry about.

Well i guess it just depends on our definition of fast. I saw one at the track running consistent 15.2's. Thats not real fast but for what it is i guess its all right

well lets see.. first off, i think they replaced the engine with a truck engine, so itl have more torque, and i got a Summit racing Phenolic carb spacer, and a Accel Hi-Output super coil, to give me fire all the way up to 8,000 which will never happen, but it sounds nice, and i just bolted on a Edelbrock Performer Intake two days ago. But it seems pretty fast to me.. accelerates nice!

By the way, why in the world would you be parting out an 89-TTA? You better have a valid explanation for this one, Mr.!
Edit: A-ha, I see says the blind man. It was just a GTA model to begin with....

lol, anyways.. im thinking about doing a LS1 swap, but i think itl be a little expensive, but it sure would be nice. prolly abot 5 grand. Usually you can find a LS1 and a T56 for about 2800-3200, plus all the custum parts you woudl need, prolly around 5 grand, but man that would be nice!!!

oh uh no its a 383. It looks tough as hell. havent got the engine back yet so not too sure on that. I gotta hog out the plenum anyways. The 210s are a little big for it.

I want another thirdgen and it WILL eventually be LSx powered
Good luck with the swap, I think you'd be building one of the ultimate thirdgens
