I have One question I need answered, what is the difference between a GTX model and a SE model? My car is a GTX and it seems more powerful and faster then a SE model. I raced a 96 SE model (standard trans) and I won big time. And my car is an Automatic.
I need this question answered badly. If anyone can help me out with the answer please e-mail me at calvinhur20@hotmail.com.
Hello.
The GTX model, what year is it? The 97 GTX coupe is much slower than a 96 GTX coupe. The reason is that the motors are different is some ways... like there is more cast iron in the 96 model, which in the end you have a stronger motor.
The 97 model uses a few lighter parts... like lighter heads.. great if you want to lose some weight... but I would rather have the 96 model... no tech motor.
The manual shift car should have outran the automatic, cause you control the revs, but you better not put the revs up too high LOL, you will have no motor left.
I split the wall inside the gearbox and lost my motor.. that's where an automatic would come in handy. LOL.
Anyways, to all the Sunfire lovers who have so much trouble with their car LOL, joining the club.. I am on my third motor... and it would kill me to have to sell the car... so I store it in the winters LOL. My summer Sunfire!!!
