The Best Japanese Import Sleeper?

What do you guys think is one of the best sleepers (Jap Imports only)? I personally think it is the 1992 Galant VR-4. Most here have probably never heard of one, much less seen one, as only 1000 were made in 1992. It basically has the engine as the eclipse gsx. The galant is four wheel drive, turbo intercooled, four wheel steering. It gets 200 horses to the wheels. I know a guy who owns one. He said that he as burned civic si's, stock mustang and camaro, and has also humiliated integrea gs-r's multiple times, and has easily kept up with mustang gt's and camaro z-28. What r ur opinions? What I mean by sleeper is a car that totally looks slow. For example, if you pulled up next to a 1992 galant, what would be the first reaction?

... doode... if a cars turbo'd it ain't a sleeper... shoot... a true sleeper, my friend's Si... every possible bolt on for the car has been installed except for exhaust... he just got custom piping with his stock exhaust thats been sawed off... its been lowered but no body kit no nothing... it looks like a piece of shit... he even went to detail and took off his Si sign and stuck on a DX... he easily has broken off Geezers (gsr) he hangs with mustangs, but loses against cameros for the simple fact that civic's aren't 4 wheel drive. hes burned every other Si out there, and taken every b18 hatch out in my area... he smokes preludes, like nothin...

four wheel drive or all wheel drive??
four way steering's pretty uselss, and the repair cost is pretty high too.
whats the weight of it? if you dont know exact number, what is it relative to other cars? (hp/weight ratio matters a lot)


tyger, there isnt any rules stating turbo cars arn't sleepers


best one that came to where i work

92 240 sx
stock rims, all season tires
red, pretty danm dirty
stock brakes, even got roof racks on top

under the hood lies a skyline engine, single turbo
rb26det

vrrrroooooom *psssshh*

a sleeper is a car that looks stock, but really runs quick quarters.

he did make a rather idiotic comment didn't he? I guess he's implying that if you can hear the air release from the blow off valve that its a dead give away. So in his mind the NA are the only "true" sleepers. LOL, kind of limited his world didn't he? And remember, he said his friends SI has every BOLT-ON.

wow a geo storm

the best sleeper ive ever seen was a dual engine tiburon it was running 10s or 11s on street tires.
i once saw an rx-3 with an rx7 transplant beat a brand new corvette. they were crazy fast...my friend and i had a hard time keeping up with them..just to watch

four wheel drive and all wheel drive are diff
but.. im thinking you already knew that


you can have a turbo without any blow off valve, but for smaller turbos, a wastegate is a must

HAHAHA THAT WAS IN SPORTS COMPACT! i remember that car... it was crazy... dual engin... haha but dual tranny too... haha it was in the Ultimate street car challenge thing they did... i was blown away

ryosuke... hey... buddy... i never said i knew absolutely everythin about cars, but keep your flamin to PMz eh??? id respect you much more if you did ... theres no need to make each other feel terribly stupid by getting into a stupid argument about cars in open public... jus tellin you there are people who would zing your right back and get in a inflated arguement which isn't cool... im not the type of person who gets angry act these kinda things but there are people... sorry by the way, i shoulda said "i believe that turbo'd cars aren't sleepers"... my mistake
