So...so far my 7afe is always burning oil and such... has 227xxx miles... Now it seems like 7afe is a flawed engine that will leak oil... so which engine is best... now I know ya`ll always say 3gste...besides that one... is a 7gen celi gts engine betteR? or should I look for a 6gen gt swap? whats the cheaper/easier swap? And longevity engine? I want more power but my wallet is just wanting a cheap swap... I dunno... kindasad.gif Ideas?

^There's no room though. redface.gif Maybe a 6GC GT, but the ST is stupid easy. But yes, V6 is the way to go. Not to mention you can get all the parts for it.
