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

i heard that they do a good job, but they are about 10 hrs away from me. I dont really mind driving that far if they do a great job.

Does anyone know a good shop around North Carolina that can do a 3rd gen 3sgte swap for less than 6500 and still include everything that XAT has?

I personally if I didnt already have a clip and stuff would go with XAT. I've talked to them on the phone before and they know their stuff. I would go with the 2nd gen swap though not the 3rd for $4800.
