Yes and no. This is my only car (my DD). I'd be interested in doing a K swap but that again means no AC.

So, I've been toying with the idea of picking up a EG hatch and do that swap to the hatch.

Side note:
I just bought a set of top hats extensions for the front.

yeah she would be out of commission for a lil while if u did the swap. U thought about doing a b swap so you could keep your a/c. But for the the money you would spend the hp wouldnt really b worth it and you could easily pic up a hatch for the price a swap. Anyways gl with it, car is looking great tho. Have you thought about buying a hatch with a/c and then turboing ej1?

yeah i was thinking that two but it will be expensive and for the hp you get out of it, not really worth it when you could buy a hatch and boost it, iino depends on how much hp he would want to make or if he is trying to stay n/a. Then a gsr or type r motor would be sick.

Thanks guys, I was thinking K swap if I would swap. Then again, I'd prefer to do that to a hatch as it's lighter. Meh, dreams.

Anywho...
