Well now i get to drive two(2) of the best FC's ever made..
A 90 TURBO II and 89 GTUs.Both cars have the same chassis and suspention set up stock on stock, but the GTUs does weigh about 200 lbs. lighter and has 4.30 final drive compared to the TURBO II's , 4.10..Meaning the GTUs has smaller gearing which is better for autocross or small tracks..Most FC owners would love to have this rear end on the TURBO II.I am thinking of swaping it but that means the whole tranny has to be swaped or I can just exchange the ring and pinion.Both cars have 4-pistom brakes, a viscous Limited Slip Diffentrial (VLSD)..But I must say the TURBO II might not have the lowend power but after 3000 rpms it gets UP!!
The GTUs is easier to drive around and has gobs of lowend power that is missing from the TURBO II..For a everyday car i would drive the GTUs since it is reliable about 10 times more than a TURBO II..=)Well Both are Great Drift cars but i say learn with a non turbo first , then move up to something with more power..
I drift both cars,and think Both cars Are Great..Can't tell which I would preffer for drifting because both cars (GTUs and TURBO II) handle beautifuly..
So sad to let my GTUs go..I'm selling it to anybody who is intrested..($3000 CASH FIRM)
