Well i decided i didnt want to convert the audi to 5-speed... so im selling it for 7,000 dollars. I owe 2500 in parts from the audi rebuild, so when it sells im going to purchase the hahn Stage 2 kit, and remove the RSM supercharger.
I figure i can start over with the audi, or go ahead and continue with the sunfire, since i already have so much in it.... Plus the after test driving a used STI i realized i favor how the sunfire "feels" more than anything ive driven.
So im back, i just couldnt bring myself to desert my baby.

You crazy?
yea are u serious?
no kiddin! i love my sunfire, but i have an 85 supra that has blown shock all 4 corners and a rear lower control arm that is so rusted it is almost breaking, and it handles and feels better than my sunfire ever did.
good call on going turbo though.
heck yes turbo>supercharger!!
I dont get it, the STI is sick, why would you ever favor a sunfire over it?
Yea, i agree the STI handled incredibly and luckily i had a cool salesman with me who let me rag on it a lil bit.
By "feel" i mean when im sitting in the sunfire it feels more like a sportscar than the STI... and i like how the seat is lower inside the car.
Granted, as far as driving the STI is superior, but i like the way the sunfire feels as far as comfort goes. Plus i cant wait to see the look on the kid sitting in the STI next to me get smoked (As soon as i go forged internals)
Till then, here comes the 16g!

It sounds insane, but I have to agree. I don't have any experience with the STi, but I've had a ride in many a sports car, and the J just seems to have more feedback. I'm pretty sure it's just because the jbodies are so UNrefined lol.
fortune cookie say:
better a delay than a disaster.
everyone has their own thoughts. i personally cant argue againest you or be with u. as i never sat in a sti.
but i like the fact of wanting to beat up on one.
at least u arent ragging on them. like saying. ahh ooo my sunflower is better and way more faster and boober'u's are slow.. i am glad u realize that car for what it is all about and are setting your goals.
