Default k20 or bust.

i made my decision today. i was going to pay off my car this year with my car detailing money and full time job money. i changed my mind about that, after these past 3 weeks of having my cars overheating problem. i decided that to waste $400+ dollars at the dealership to fix the leak then still be stuck with a shitty 1.7liter. that i owe $13g's on. . .
ide rather have a fast 6 speed 2.0 liter sleeper that i owe 13g's on. makes me wanna pay for the damn thing. im open for oppinons. but im kinda stubburn so i think my minds set on the k swap.

so you want to sell your car for an rsx? or you want to swap your car for a k20?

either way, if you're having problems with your car, swapping or trading it in will make you more happy with your car .

just save your money in the mean time, and get that car fixed asap...come on its only 400 dollars! dont be cheap. anyways i think you should pay off your car first or trade it in. no use in spending 7k in an engine when u could have put that to your car, then when your car is paid off and your engine has like 100k, then you should think about swaping that engine...i was always told..."if it aint broke, then dont fix it" know what i mean? think about it $400 or $7,000
