As far as which one is a faster drag car or handling, the VR4 hands down. People often say our cars are heavy and then immediately dismiss them. Take a look at these few articles and what kind of cars the VR4 is competing agianst:

vr4 is a great car, if ur a do it urselfer then u may run into some issues when maintenence comes along, our cars are cramped under the hood but if u have patience and no what ur doing, its worth it. handleing is awesome on these cars, the may be heavy but they r low and very wide. spend a few bills on shocks andstruts and its a dream in cornering. at high speeds it hugs the road. and in a straight drag is a force to be reckoned with. if this is ur first CAR car then maybe u should look for an sl. which is sill top notch as far as na's r concered. look at the stick above and give it a look see

At first I was thinking LS1 Camaro and was about to give you the advantages and disadvantages of each, but then i re-read that you said LT1, the VR-4 wins hands down.

this is not my first CAR car has it was put i have have a supercharged probe amd a 87 camaro with a 400 in it. i think that i can handle the vr4 and i am a do it your self kinda guy but i have worked with no room befor. well i thought about what i want and i have an eclipse noe and it has been really good to me and i hope that the vr4 is going to be the same. any advise like what to do first for a reasonable priced mod and what about me running an open down pipe would that be a good idea
