Default WHAT 2 DO!? which one?

hey guys what should I do? I can get a gsr motor(obd2) w/ everything except da harness and ecu w/ 50k on it for $900. I can get the rest after ... anywayz would it be better to swap it to an 94 LS or a 94 RS??? oh yea both is auto so i have to swap the tranny too...so which of the 2 would be better to swap it to? which would be more reilable and faster? and how much would you think it would cost to do a gsr motor & tranny swap in the shop?

Well, it's practically the same car. The only difference are the options and the curb weight.

The RS is a bit lighter, no sunroof, no abs, and I believe no power options. It's good for a track car if that's what you're into.

The LS is alittle heavier but you get a few more bells and whistles. Better for daily driving and comfort...if that's what you're into.

Both are reliable, but if you want the most lightest, most "track friendly" platform then RS would be your choice.

LS looks better color keyed side moldings and is better to pimp in since its not Bottom of the line

LS ....throw in a nice boosted LS VTEC and have some nice comfy power options (windows, roof...etc) and still be able to push 300 HP.

just because its cheap doesnt mean its stolen. good luck with the build, i would definitely go for the LS just for the comfort of power windows and locks and such.

yeah, the rs only comes with power windows

power locks/sunroof, abs, cruise control, etc. is for the ls.

Rs is significantly lighter though.
you can get them down to be pretty light.. 2300 lbs area
