    the h22 is "torquier" but no, not very torquey compared to other motors. im planning on doing an ls swap into the hatchy, and with 300whp, itll proably make 190 lb ft of torque lol. but cant argue the low curb weight of them shits. less torque = less wheel spin ftw!!
    bewst. i haz it. yew needz it.

    What was it Carol Shelby said about torque vs horsepower?

    Horsepower sells cars, but torque wins races?

    I am actually thinking of gettn rid of one of my stangs to try an import. I usually sell a make of car to get another make to build up. I am thinking of a AWD eclipse. My friends acura impressed me with E85 580 detuned to 450 gets 33 mpg.
    If a hammer,crescent wrench,duct tape, or JB Weld can't fix it........Its gotta be a electrical problem

    e85 is some fun stuff... i've got a buddy down in chicago area with a red 4dr 2004 neon(not an srt)... 16g turbo, srt front mount, megasquirt to tune it, on e85 and slicks he ran 12.6 at 108.... and it's all homebrew engineering, which makes it all that much cooler.. lol

    if i were to go import(other than the 2 that i just picked up) i'd probably look older s2k like someone mentioned or find an early miata and throw a charger on it of some sort... rwd imports seem to hold their value though, so it makes justifying spending that kinda money hard... i know early miatas in good shape are still like 4k or something for a 1990

    just food for thought....

    to mr. nd4spd. I bet you i make shitload of torque than your I6.
    I have H22 with 500ftlbs. and I can make more torque but useless since its FWD. Just because you have a supra, dont mean notta.

    I will bring the pos out depending if i can leave work early. I'm scheduled til 6 and this ends at 8.... so i'm gonna try and get out a few hours early. I'm sure isrrael will be down if it's only for 15 bucks that's a deal.

    spoon, buddy club, mugen, etc... whatever you call them is all BS.

    I took a stock b18c engine from honda/acura fitted it with je pistons, eagle rods, darton sleeves, arp head studs, an ACT Xtreme clutch kit and ran consistent low 10sec timeslips. I laugh when these over-hyped names are mentioned especially when they say spoon spec engine and/or mugen spec engine. All the REAL honda guys know this is true....
