I agree you should keep the hatch.......but again its your ride

I personally love 92-95


good luck on your decision though

finding a clean car is not easy these days and you have one in that hatch.. dont let it go... the swap in his ek is barely faster than your car so please dont do it for the engine.. and another thing is that buying swapped cars is like taking on somebody's problems that little smoke when its cold can turn into about 10 more things and once you know it u have wasted all your money on a car that looks like crap... i say keep the hatch unless he puts a crazy amount of cash on top which you could use for body work for the ek

weight isnt an issue with this...OP: you dont want to buy someone elses headache. if the car smokes that means theres something that YOU have to fix, not him. even if its something stupid. your car is in much better shape, and if anything you can get something way nicer than that ej8..even if it does have a B series in it.

IMO though, put a less ricey lookin exhaust on your car
