Wow, those are amazing comments from both of you.

Brian, you almost got a GSX for $1500, but I would not come even near saying it was in prestine condition, remember, there was a fucked up motor sitting under the hatch, and I'm pretty sure I saw some body damage on those fenders...

NHh223 you missed out big time on buying a 97 GSX for $6000. Instead you opted for a car 6 years older and you paid how much for it??

Personally I think getting a 1G turbo for $1500 is a steal as long as it is in good working condition and doesn't look too bad.

If high horsepower is something you want out of a car, you can't beat the price you pay for high horsepower from a 4g63. Get a VR-4, sure you can get more power, but you have to pay twice as much for everything, 2 turbos, 2 manifolds, etc. 1G, 2G, 4g63 is the best way to go for cheap, reliable power if you do it right.
