> [@StrokedZ28](#): > > aren’t tsi’s AWD? TSi is FWD and the TSi AWD is obviously AWD. 1992.5 is when the 7bolt made its introduction but the 2G flavor of 7bolt is quite a bit more prone to walking crankshafts than the 1G. Good find regardless! ---

lol, dont worry, ill still be an s-10 fan at heart, its just that its a nice car, and i always wanted an import. After the 4.3 goes in the beater, its gonna get a nice 350 swap and yes, its white the main thing that made me do it it that its gonna take less than half the effort to mod a DSM than it would to mod an s-10 and make it just as fast. ---
