Get a hatch, just look better in my opinion. And in all honesty you might as well pick up that since its already swapped to the best engine you can get ( 3rd gen WRC ) and build off it. And just change the things you dont like about it. Thats what i would do. If you got that you just saved a good 6K in swapping engines, tranny, axles, wiring,ext. And if already has other JDM goodies on it that ARENT ANYWHERE CLOSE TO CHEAP. Just saying, if you have 5K get that.

No you have coupes, verts and the liftback ( hatchback ). Hatch's are just more popular. Coupes have a actual trunk not a hatch,

hatches are better in my opinion to, you can take out your back seats within 10 minutes rather than spend more time with a coupe. and coupes are ugly to me.. soorryy guys hatch is the way to go, and yea get a 96 and up you get the pre face lift, and if your lucky you'll already have the fog light wires pre ran.. mine are.

get a GT, you can find a good one with a 5K budget. then save up for the GT4 bumper and hood, and ST205 swap. put your location in too so we know where you are. if you are in So Cal i can help with everything

You will find that a 7GC GT and a 6GC GT are pretty much equally slow. The 6GC is alot more reliable tho - the 5S-FE is one of the most reliable engines ever made. As mentioned before - if you plan to swap get a '94-95.
Just look for a nice clean one - should be no problem with your budget This post has been edited by DEATH: Aug 25, 2010 - 10:56 AM --------------------  ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM) Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
