Also..... dont forget the sentra SE-R as a factor in the new GS.
But what about saturn SC2/SL2's in GS? I'm curious to see how my car will
stack up next year, its fairly competitive against the current range of ES
cars (especially if i were driving it faster). I think its worthwhile to
keep the car, i like them and i dont want a new car - but i will be going
with a set of custom shocks over the winter - shocktek i think. This, along
with some light(er) wheels should help me close the gap somewhat. Specs on
the car:
Weight: 2250 lbs
Power: 124HP@6400
Torque: 122 ft-lbs@4800 (80-90% of that is available down below 3,000 rpm,
its not a peaky motor - good torque curve for a 1.9L)
Its also got pretty short gearing - 2nd gear tops at around 50mph on the
smaller than stock size R-tires, and thats at redline (6500) - i tend to
shift around 6100-6300. But it moves well..... But i'm afraid that as my
driving gets better the car will come up short against the LSD and more power
the sentra SE-R has or cars with real suspensions, like a celica GT.

Gee , if all they really wanted to do was move all of GS into DS, and all of
DS into GS why didn't they just say so. It would be easy to just get new
class designator magnets for the cars involved. ;^)
Funny though, the GS Camaros do quite well on a non-tight course and yet
they will be left in GS. Hmmm. A class ringer perhaps?
