3kgt or stealth

[carcrazyindiana]

i no there's a lot of different kinds of 3kgt and stealths but in general what do you think is the better one. i have purchased a 3kgt, but haven't drove yet. personally i think that a 3kgt is better in performance (once again in general) and in visual but different people have different tastes so i want to know which you think is better and why.

[VR43000GT]

They are equally as good in performance. It is which ever one you think looks better. Me personally, I like the 3000gt but that is just me. Different strokes for different folks.

[Igovert500]

same exact car, so I'm curious how you think the 3000gt is better performance wise. If anything the Stealth is, because it is a tad lighter.

[carcrazyindiana]

i thought the 3kgt was a little lighter but now that i look its 3,990 lbs. damn im retarded. stealth only 3,803lbs.

your retarded. haha.

nice first post. welcome to the forums

it can and will be argued all day long. Stealth's are lighter, 3k have downforce and toys, etc.

Basically, just choose on looks.

Well, if that's the way people choose between 3000's and Stealths, than we wouldn't have any need for Stealths, would we?

[vectorspecialist]

we would have many reasons for the first gen stealths, they loo better than the 3kgt in first gen. yes i own one, and i'll stand up for it more than i will my neon.
second gen, i'd take either, and obviously i'd take a third gen 3k, being the only one that was made.
so yea, thats my opinion and i'm sticking to it.

everyone was thinking it...finally someone said it lol.
RIGHT ON MORPH lol

j/k,

to each his own haha...no 3/s civil war

i have no problem with people thinking there's no reason for the stealth, honostly it was more a waste of money, they couldve just made the active aero an option on the vr4, that wouldve made it the same as the stealth, the only thing the stealth has, other than weight, sorry, i hate the fact that the 3k has the grove behind the rear window, where on the stealth the wing would b. that grove should not have been there on either in my opinion

[AutostradaVR4]

i recall reading somewhere that there is actually a benefit ot it...ill have to search around on the web though because i cant remember exactly what. I think it might be aerodynamics, cause at some speed the air coming off the roof will hit right after that and make a nice transition, creating a low pressure over the rear window...unless you have the stealth spoiler, which directs that air back up...hence downforce, but still retaining the low pressure.... on 3k's..maybe for wind noise reduction?

damn i would really KILL for wind tunnel time to play with my car...lol

not positive. ill try to find out. i know i read it somewhere.

found that...didnt really explain about the ridge, but you can see how at "normal" highway speeds (the 2 pics are for 90mph and 125 mph), the air aff the roof would hit just behind the ridge.

cool stuff if you havnt seen this site b4. I think its amazing that while the AA system increases downforce and balances the forces on the car, the coefficient of drag is actually reduced. those guys at mitsu sure as hell did a good job.
