Default 3000GT VR4 to S2k

well, I have had a VR4 for about 4 years now. started modding it and now realize that at this time in my life a street monster isnt what i need. So i am buying my brother in law's s2k (if i can find someone to buy my VR4) and hoping for some fun times. So, hi to everyone i will try to contribute to the forum, but it might be a little while because they are definitly two very different cars.

Certainly different animals, which one puts a bigger smile on your face?

Coming from a 3rd Gen RX7, I had to come to grips that the S2000 is not cheap to get any real performance gains. If you are a tinkerer and like a big bang for the buck in modifications, IMO, the S2K is NOT the car for you. However, if you want a great sports car out of the box and don't mind flogging it hard to get the performance out of it, it is a GREAT car!

Best of luck!

...and if you're fixated on torque you probably won't be happy either. It's a high revving machine just like its throwbacks (the S800/600/etc).
