Yeah exactly, so for me its either B18C5 or D16Z6 lol. Not that a B16A is a bad motor, it actually felt really good when I drove Jesses car once. 10x better lol.
Don't want to have to swap twice and plus its money lost in shipping, tune up and resale.
I don't see myself having 5k for an engine anytime soon lol. I am perfectly content with having a D16Z6 just as long as it runs okay and the other areas are improved.
I'm not a fan of having a sick engine but the rest of the car is weak so the rest of the car has to be up to par before an engine like that goes in.

funny part is your cars not bunk. i've seen worse things then your can ever think someone would do at the drag strip. start the i want a b18c fund now. never hurts to put money away. you know what im saying. you know my turbo set-up to me isnt about the money its about doing something that will make me happy in the end. your car needs bushings, so do about 75% of us. i know what you mean, but a motor like that will bring you more joy then those bushings will ever.
I like the idea of a fund, the only problem is that everything I do make goes to my car anyways lol.
Sorta just catching up now that Im working again but hopefully can start having money for other stuff besides the car. Theres a lot of things Id like to do like snowboard for example but ill sacrifice that for some parts. Just gotta keep my mind straight because parts can be bought later and such but youre only young once so don't want to miss out.
I used to do that when I was younger. After I turned 22 I stooped that. Fixed my credit and started saving money instead of constantly spending it on my car. I haven't bought anything for my car in a while. Although I'm saving to buy my backyard speacial spoiler

I put down 10% for gas and 90% for the hatch haha. Not really an option to have a fund, I just keep throwing everything that i can into it.

yeah buddy!!!!!!
LOL you just went thru like 3 sets of wheels within 6 months haha
Yeah but he used the money from his other rims to pay for the next set. So Im sure he doesnt consider it buying stuff out of pocket.
Im with you Jesse. I need to fix my credit and not buy stuff for my car...which is why it hasnt seen a new part in months. About half a year if not longer.

Gabe I don't remember if I told you but if you need any parts from the So Cal area let me know, I can return the favor.
Same goes for anyone else who wants some ish from "Sunny So Cal"
