Got this for a debt owed. I don't know much about it, but I do know that it runs and drives, but is missing on two cylinders. Body is rusty, but the undercarriage is solid. The other aluminum rim is in the hatch. Clutch seems to be good. Might run some tests on it in the morning. Have title in hand. Asking a whopping $300. MUST BE TOWED HOME.

Not sure if this year does, but some year Storm GSi had the 4AGE. Or maybe it was the prizm

as far as i no they werent half bad cars. i knew someone that had one for years. it would be worth the whole 300 dollars if you can fix the miss problem. might be something as easy as a distributor cap and rotor.

jason, im pretty sure it was the prizm as that shared the chassis and drivetrain as the corolla.
funny thing is... these storms came turbo! plenty of swaps you can do to one.

You could get a turbo AWD isuzu impulse which is the same thing. You couldnt get a turbo storm as far as I remember.

we drove it down our frontage road this morning. clutch works fine and the brakes work fine. starts up right away. if someone would put a little work into it, it would make a nice beater for the winter, hornet/enduro car, something... seriously, if no bites it's going to end up at the junkyard sometime this week.

I would be interested in this for a winter beater, but have no place to store until I get into my new house...maybe a couple weeks. If you keep it that long, I'll be in touch.

I like how it has a HUGE opening for an exhaust in the bumper and out comes this tiny 1" pipe. lol

hmmm...
i wonder where my screen name came from?

a 14b is a freakin monster of a turbo on a 1.6!

They are good cars actually... higher quality than mitsu for sure.

True

Nope. Like arnie said, just the impulse RS was turbo. Same chassis, but AWD and 1.6L turbo. Amazing little motor actually, too bad they are insanely rare.
Only 900ish RS's ever brought to the states. I played with one for awhile, and cut another one up into little pieces. I have a friend who owns one (and refuses to sell it to me).

cool cars actually. they handle quite will stock.
