Well its very clear that I can nolonger drive my car, the motor is gone, and i will be riding the bus/ stealing my moms car for some time, so what do you guys think i should save up for. a new car, or a new motor (if i got a new car i would go all out (with what money i can save), 3rd cars a charm right. or get a new motor, maybe the same or some other (3sgte, etc.)

try and be well rounded , i know we all like/love 6gc's, but think about it. I would like to take this serious.

posible new car options:
96' vw jetta GLX VR6
96' mazda RX7
00' ford ZX2
67' mustang
(not limited to those cars at all)(just a few in mind)

Alot of people on here said that you should get the 3sgte. That would be cool but I think in your situation you should just get a low mileage engine. I say this because This whole thing is unexpected and if you haven't really looked into the swap before now then you're walking into alot of work and possible problems. I say get another 5sfe and since your dad can fix the car you should help out and learn all you can from your dad about what he is doing to get the new motor in. It is an experience that could help you out later down the road.
