3S-GTE or 300ZX, I don't know what to do... Options

[YellowTwo]

I have been thinking about this for a while now. It's really a tough decision...

3s-gte:

-251hp
-FWD
-$4-6k
-Need an auto-manual swap (another $2k)
-Good looks
-Nice sound system that I've spent time and money on.

300zx TT:

-300hp
-RWD
-$4k after selling my car
-Already manual
-Looks are not as good
-No sound system


In conclusion, the 300zx will be faster and cheaper, but with the engine swap I will get to keep the car that I've spent much of my time on and looks better. I don't know what to do! Give me some advice...

the swap is a VERY hard decision to make. i know because im going through it. on one hand, i figured out that i could afford to buy an EVO. on the other i could make something very rare and special out of my car. seeing Claytons GT2 project really inspired me to swap my engine and finsh the ideas and dreams i always had for my car.

i would recomend that you ask questions here and in the 300zx forums. look at all the benefits and drawbacks of each car...(i hear the 300zx is a bitch to work on) ... and then make your decision. dont just ask what is better, because celica people will always choose the celica (and vice versa). anway...good luck, i know its a big decision to make.
