hello, i love my car and want to make it faster. i'd like to make it awd as well, but i'll look into that more after auto->manual and after a 3sgte swap. since i have a 99, and i live in the usa, i need to get that year or newer in an engine to be legal right? this seems to restrict me to a caldina engine. legality seems like a great excuse to go for the extra 6bhp.
question 1 but what if the engine that comes in the clip is 2 months older than my car, does anyone know if that makes a difference in legality in the us? question 2 does anyone know how much harder the st215 swap will be than the st205? thanks in advance ny |
