Christmans Will be Coming a Little Late This Year, Waiting to start my build Options

A few months back a purchused a 1994 gt that had been in a little fend bender. The kids parents were selling the car because clearly he wasn't ready to drive. I bought it for 800 trailered it home and began to inspect the damage. I got underneath the car and it was clean as can be, something very hard to find in NY. Besides the hood and bumper everything else looked pretty promising. The longer the car sat the more i began thinking about doing a swap, not just the motor though, the whole drivetrain. Doing some research and seeing it was dubbed as nearly impossible i thought why not. I got on the phone with Keith at RPMGarage in Japan and after shooting some number back and forth my dreams are coming true. He was able to hook me up with a WRC front clip, the rear diff, an extra 3sgte motor, recarro seats, and some other parts for an amazing price. The parts were just loaded onto a ship and i was told it's gonna be 4 weeks. I'm just super excited and can't wait to start this project. I'll try to keep stuff up to date and post pics when i can.

I'd say don't even try to go with Super strut suspension, yes they perform better, but their replacement parts are a lot more expensive and they do need to be replace a lot more often than McPherson, a lot of GT4s and SS III have swapped over to McPherson suspension because of this. Tein SS coilovers are great so stick with that idea.

3L2 red is perfect, my car was that color once, now is some kind of dirty / faded / sun burned looking red. but hopefully things work out for me and I'll get a fresh paint sometime next year.
