PRO TIP: Don't be lazy and expect everything to be spoon fed information, so learn to use the search function.

well i was debating on just getting a rsx or ep3.. think ima jus go with a rsx...
then i read that the type s is heavyer then the base.. so ill just get a base model with high miles and maybe just swap the type s motor or type r motor into it...


or would a base motor be worth doing something too?

im basically trying to make a lightweight, DD... i will gut alot of BS off the car.. it doesnt have to be the fastest but i figure if i loose some weight, add some power or swap motor.. it could be a 13 sec car?? wouldnt mind a 12sec car with maybe a JRSC...

yea i figured the base motor was ***.. but maybe since it would be legal i could sell that swap and grab a type s swap... or if i could afford a R swap.. then jus 1pc suspen, wheels, exhaust.. lil gutting,, keep it clean should be a sweet ride..
