are you really asking us which one you want? how bad is the front end dmg, i say make it line up and sell the si and go with the eg hatch, thats what i would do. i'm an eg person.

i say get rid of the em1, and sport the eh2/eh3.

Car is lighter, but its nice to see a really clean em1.

I prefer hatchbacks, i say put the b16a2 in the hatch, part the em1 or fix the front end and sell the shell.

You can get some hatch shells for relatively cheap leaving you with 2500-3500 to build your b16, or, boost. =]

Guarantee you'd enjoy a boosted b16 hatch more than a clean em1 with some mods.

because building a high compression motor for boost is useless. IMO, ***** the Eh3 and fix the EM1, its nice to have power windows, power locks, an air conditioner, and a car wemon will look at. drop a b20 in for a while then, boost that with a b16 head.
