3rd gen is the way too go. not much on the 4th gen from what i understand. if you just swap in the 3rd gen your looking at the price for the clip, and any upgrades you plan on doing while you have it out(clutch, water pump and timing belt which should always be done anyways). A complete rebuild is really personal preference. If it was me id rebuild it so i know everything internal is sound and in good shape. assuming you doing the wiring yourself, you should be spending more then 5-6k if you just swap it in with a new clutch, wp, and tb. You can just use your gt trans and axles.
