http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/bc/4fc0f555/bc/My...Cnpw8BBUvFTqn2U



those are the older ones..

people want too much monye for DSMs for some reason. Plus their prob just as bad as a celica all trac for reliablilty , DSMs are junk lol



that second link won't work, as someone who doens't know two much about celicas isn't there the flippy light kind, the 4 round light kind and the new "action package" style kind? or are there two flippy light style altracs? I know there are 4 round light altracs in other countries.

If you would have actually read my post before, I said that the style you were talking about with the "4-round light kind" is the generation after mine, it's called the GT-4.

I hear the 325iX is a good winter car. It's a rear-biased AWD system and since it's the E30 body, it's nice and boxy.

anything 80s awd turbo is going to have potential trans issues. I'd prob get a dsm instead just because the parts are easier to find than a rare awd celica. FYI there is only one body style of altrac in the states, the older one with the flip up lights. I dunno how many would agree with me but no 80s "pocket rocket" type car makes a good daily driver unless its been thoroughly sorted



i thought they had transaxel troubles
