Default Need Serious Opinions on Engine!

so from wat iv found out from state laws i cant rhd my car cause the orignal vin # would be tampered with. and by law thats not legal so now im stuck as to wat to do.
1. buy type r half cut part it all out to wat i need and have extra parts
2. gsr re build??

as of now my car is complete stripped.. jus dash board and doors. no bumpers interior etc. im doing the jdm conver. but idk wat would be better buy for my money. i know everyone goin to say wat sdo i want boost, n/a etc. personally im looking for positives and negs.

if i got the type r cut. ill prolly do cams / head work and some other basics jus to have some more *****. but if i did the gsr rebuild, money put into that for all new parts would it be worth it to be as fast as a jdm type r or TR be better jus to throw a little amount of money into it and be better off, so far plan is to go n/a... maybe in future MAYBE! boost

but like i said looking for personal opinions and suggestions to my build etc THANKs!

Eating some Stagg Chili rght now.

Long day today. I learned something new though. Equivalence Ratio is the 'official' term for Lambda, or the ratio between measured air-fuel-ratio and stoichiometric.

Yours?

As my old professor used to say.
Professor "Go shoot yourself, you're stupid"
Random student "blah blah blah"
Professor "Shut up, you're dead"

Surprisingly I was able to translate this from idiot to english with the google translator function

I've found out from state laws, I can't do a RHD conversion on my car because the original VIN# can't be tampered with. By law, it's not legal to tamper with the VIN#, so now I'm not sure which way I want to go with the car.
1. Buy a Type R Shell and sell all the parts I need
2. Rebuild a GSR

Right now my car is completely stripped. Only the dashboard and doors remain. I'm doing the jDM front end conversion, but I don't know what would be a better buy for my money. I know everyone is going to ask me what direction I want to go with the car (i.e. FI or NA), but I'm not sure. I'm looking for opinions and positives and negatives of each.

If I bought the type r shell, I will probably just do a stock bottom end with a built head and some other basic bolt ons to give it a little more *****. Would it be better money wise to rebuild a gsr motor to the same horsepower/torque as the JDM type r motor or just buy the jdm type r motor? Right now I plan to go N/A, but I might go FI in the future.

but like i said looking for personal opinions and suggestions to my build etc THANKs![/

yeah sorry i was thinking of reposting to say to sorry if everything seemed jumbled up . i was half asleep why posting it... godnf8 lol i like it!

the only thing is, i ment buy a Type-R half cut/clip ( not a shell since i alrdy have my own shell) and part it out, meaning the engine, jdm front end, and misellenious parts. than from there do some basic bolts ons etc. or would buyng a GSR motor ( block and head) and rebuilding be worth it... either or jus read GODNF8s post as a reference , but yes please need seriousl opinions, suggestions, experiences...THANKS again..
