the only way they look better is with a huffer or two under the bonnet.
its like a guy with a pair of socks stuffed down is jocks.
looking all tough and manly.
get the girlies excited.
but when it comes to crunch time, all they reveal is their inadequacies!
why advertise yourself as something you're clearly not?


Its not about showing that you "have something" under the bonnet,
the fact is, it looks better than the NA bonnet,

but im not going to argue, because you will win :P

Nothing dissapoints me more than seeing another turbo gen2 out there... catching up for a chinwag like enthusiasts do, only to find that they're a fan801 who were lucky enough to score a turbo bonnet from the wreckers after the last time they crashed. Along with their milotin fartcans and "compressed" springs! Spotting a genuine JDM gen2 is ultra ultra rare!

Spotting a Gen 2 GTB is rare
Spotting a Gen 2 RSB is ultra ultra rare!

It is dissapointing seeing a GTB/RSB look-alike only to find its an RX

I have never seen a true RSB in the flesh. Closest thing I've seen is Kenan's car, he bought a genuine RSB that was not to be complied, and reshelled all of it from the RSB to his RX. Rear wiper rear window and all! Gen2 GTB's I'd call utra rare. I have only seen two others in Sydney. Jim's white one, and smidge's old blue wagon. There are a couple more floating out in NSW.

IMO there's nothing wrong with a RX, seriously, if you don't want a turbo (and some don't).

I too dislike the "smoke & mirrors" scene. Whats the point?

Brings back memories of a 'rolla that used to get round here, dude spent bout 15k making it look/sound good but forgot to do anything to the motor... and it wasn't even twin-cam. EPIC FAIL in my books!

I liked my RX more than my B4!
Im not saying there bad! Just not as good as an RSB or GTB gen 2

Just trying to be politically correct... I mean I'm sure there's someone somewhere who doesn't want a turbo and would prefer the N/A options

No, if there was an NA B4 with the same power as mine, i would take that over the turbo any day! I just prefer it, the power delivery is just better in an NA

Thanks Arex :blush: I knew i was going to get flamed as it is a forum where most people are driving turbo's including myself but a 200kw NA or SC would be better than a 200kw Turbo (of course the NA would cost more, but would be better to drive) :flag_of_truce:

much of a muchness there tom

i'm not agreeing, but i'm not disagreeing either.

i guess it comes down to the power delivery, and the individual car.

my celica is pure NA, yeah, sure its not a turbo, but still puts a dirty big smile on my ugly mug!

speaking of which.... i might give her a clean today... still covered in dust!
