how much money do you have??????????????????????????????????????
all the parts costs are basically the same for each motor, the actual price of your motor makes all the difference in the world. I use LS motor because they are disposable if they break and dont cost 5000 like the ITR

get what ever motor you wish, but just make sure you do it right from the start and build it and prep it for turbo

money isn't really too much of a problem. i am going to be doing this over the next two years. i was thinking of doing a GSR or type-r for now then doing turbo later. but i would still build the bottom end. didn't want to wait two yaers for my cx to break into the 17's in the 1320.
