Well as you can tell from my sig, I'm getting a 94-98 Silvia.

When I sell my civic, I'd have about 10500 to play with (roughly).
I can probably get an old model 94 for AROUND 4-5G, that only leaves me with about 5 Grand tops.

My car will not be build to drag/drift spec, because I want to keep SOME of the interior for show purposes. Heres where your input comes in..

Should I, Swap the RB25DET engine in first? (That will cost the remaining 5,000 dollars to get it done w/ the parts fabricated as well. That'd leave me with absolutely NO money to spend on other areas.

Or should I, Do the s15 strawberry conversion, get some nice Bronze ROTAS in nice rubber, and possibly midly mod the engine, and swap at a MUCHHHHHHHHHHH later time?

If i went the first route, all I would have to spend upgrading my car would be suspension, brakes, exhaust, GT turbo, bigger--- well I'd have to overhaul the engine basically, but I'd have the HARD part already done.

Your input? so lost.. I want a nice looking ride -_-... so tired of the ugly civic.
