All things being equal, a GT-2 will smoke a GT-4 (All-Trac), less weight, same power.
An All-Trac will however, launch better and handle better in all conditions, can't beat that AWD!


I never thought about that, pretty funny that a gt2 will beat a gt4. Awesome, cant wait to smoke some GT-4's in a couple of years... laugh.gif

Don't forget AWD power train loss. It's around 20~30 % sad.gif

Yep, assuming a low-mileage, tip-top, 2nd gen 3S-GTE swap, a GT-2 is making 172 wheel horsepower, whereas a GT-4/All-Trac is making around 158 whp. STILL... what the GT-4 lacks in power on the ground it more than makes up for with control of that power

AWD FTW cheers.gif

I got the Idle problem fixed. Turns out the idle vac line that goes to the the AC Idle up was uncapped. Duh. So now she idles fabulously.

I have been trying to get my water temp gauge, tach, and climate controls to work and am not having luck. Found out after inspecting every relay and fuse and wire connection in the car yesterday that the ECU connections have all been hacked and the ignition and some of the drivers kick panel wires. (alarm system, gauges, and VPC-kinda a low tech EMS) So I get to have all sorts of fun now.......I really thought I was about to have her on the road and now this......

That looks amazing. I like the grill/mesh in the hood - is that factory Toyota? A lot of times you see people with those hoods and just a big gaping hole there.

The mesh is a Toyota part, but I think that it is pretty expensive for what it is so most opt not to get it.
The wheels are 17x7 Nippon Evoluzione Racing wheels.
