Hello everyone,
First let me explain my situation. My car has been a bunch of trouble since day 1 when I bought it, yet I still love it so much. I just spent 1000 dollars fixing the AC and I was about to sell it until I saw a fixed up 6gc the other day and it made me think about doing a swap.. So my question is, do you think I should spend 6500 on a 3rd Gen 3sgte swap (and send the car to XAT Racing in Florida) or should I sell my car and spend the money on a 7th Gen gt-s 6 speed? There are positives and negatives about each choice but I'm just looking for some feedback before I make the wrong decision. Can someone help me out with my decision?? The 6th Gen is sexier, but the 7th gen has more aftermarket availability. Any opinions on what I should do? By the way, I've already contacted XAT and I can get the swap done in Aug. if I decide to do so. -Rob -------------------- ![]() |

QUOTE(RbrtNdrws @ Jun 28, 2005 - 8:20 PM) if i have the money for the 3rd gen, why not go for it? I'd rather have 250 hp than the 2nd gen motor which i think has around 200 right? [right][snapback]306212[/snapback][/right] The jdm 2nd has 220hp, but it will be easier to get replacement parts for it, as it is very similar to the mr2 turbo. id say go with the second. But for the car, Just way the pros and cons if you can have a better car that will make you more happy for the same money dont do it, but for the money dif if this will make you love your car do it. |
