Default 2 Cars - Time for one - Which one should i build??

Which one should i build:

- '94 si has engine in it already, front and rear cf lips, suspension, etc. but not the perfect body and color change
- '92 vx has suspension done and the complete paint job

which one would you like better in the end?

here are pictures of them both:

Si is a bit nicer but VX is lighter. Hard choice, keep them both. One daily driver and one track *****.

that is a good idea in theory but i know myself and in the end i would build both of them and be flat broke, that is why one has to go

both have perfect titles

vx has 169k miles
si has 100k miles

but as far as rigidity and the body holding up, both are in excellent condition

i'd go with the vx, swap the wings and lips, the vx is lighter and looks better in my opinion, and it is a better option if you really want to go fast

The si hatchs are rare and hard to find atleast in my area...so i'd have to say sell it make a decent penny off of it and put it into the track ***** vx...and not to sound like a weight freak but you wouldnt have the sunroof or cruise control and im not sure if youre vx has ac or not ive seen them with and without

Heres what i would do take the motor out of the si and put it into the vx and switch the seats in them cause the ones in the vx look nicer then sell the vx and take that money and put a bigger engine in the si and paint it.

The reason i say this is because the si has lower miles and a sunroof so i think you will be happier this way

swap the parts from the si to the vx and sell the si...if you plan on making this for track use you'll be happier with the vx in the end

use the VX as your project car and the Si as your daily driver. That VX is absolutely gorgeous. That paint looks real nice (atleast in that picture).
