Im looking to buya older GT and im trying to decide between a 92 and 93 hatchback.
Any advice on which is better, or just some diff/sim between the two would really help me out.

bobby

if you wanna add a power adder then go with the 92, if you wanna stay N/A then go with the 93

i dont think there were many changes from 92 - 93 except the major one (pistons) go with a 92. anywhere from 89-92 is best.

bobby

yes, but a 93 willl have longer egine life due to tigher wall clearences.

Thanks a lot guys.


But whats the diff. between wall clearences?
And what is wall clearence?

92, forged pistons

92 was the last year for Forged pistons while 93 had Hypertunic pistons if you want to mod it up go with a 92 or a 89-92 cause thats when mass air started except for 88 in california mustangs. But if you want to mod it up definately go with a 89-92 if you dont go with a 93 but there pistons are crapier and if you want to mod it up you will have to get new pistons so 89-92 is your best bet. They last a while to one of my friends had a 91 and his mom owns it now it has alomst 200,000 miles on it and still runs strong.

do you not think i know what im talking about? wall clearence is the space between the pistons and the cylinder walls, hypereutectic pistons are closer to the cylinder wall moreless, therefore, the motor will last longer and not burn a drop of oil at 100k miles as a forged motor probaly would, you get the idea............. forged= handle more hp like as in power adder use......... hyper.= longer life....
