FP green turbo, AWD, 4G63 swap. Not many cars which have street tires on right now can touch that car from a dig. The same motor won some DSM shootout in July/August I believe. TurboTony is his name.

I say no shame that 4g63 is a strong motor when is not leaking oil and running right. I am sure he was making over 300awhp.

Im quite sure that motor put an AWD DSM (1ga I believe) into the low 11s, maybe ran some high 10 second passes. No joke.

True, I got beat from a dig by an AWD Eclipse a couple years ago on the street. I spun like the first 200 feet, but I got beat none the less. No shame

Eh, I'd take either of my Hyundais over an FBody in terms of build quality. Sorry....

I daily drive an '02 Elantra 5 speed that has been back to the dealership once in 102k miles. My wife has an '06 Sonata V6 thats never had an issue and already has 35k on it.

I think most would agree the GTO is built better then an FBody

My '04 GTO has 29k on it.
A) The A/C makes noise and doesn't blow cold.
B) The car uses/burns 1 1/2 quarts of oil between oil changes.
C) It leaks power steering fluid.
D) Its leaking coolant.
E) The passenger side door lock does not work.
F) The alarm does not work.

Granted none of these problems are major but considering the GTO MSRP is nearly the MSRP of the two Hyundais combined, it shouldn't happen.

Our GTO runs very well, I've been thrilled with a stock A4 '04 running 13.4 and the car handles well for such a heavy ride. But lets me real, their IS a reason the car is only worth about half of the MSRP just 25 months after purchase.

For stock, well Im mostly stock. I think my car runs really well. 107 traps is nothing to really mess with any Hyundai. But then again you have these crazy swaps. Kenny H, are you the owner/driver?

EDIT: wait wtf.. youre from NC? I didnt race you..

Nah, its not me. I was just messing. My daily driver is an '02 Elantra 5 speed. For a daily driver its fine but I would never see the point of modding something like that....
