ok ive got 2 grand ...... what the hell should i get for my car ?

[turboXR]

SR and new LSD (if you haven't replaced the LSD yet) but def. the DET...shoot, I'd help do the swap if you got one.

[96Talon]

give it to me. j/k cj. don't really know man. upgrade your computer, if you haven't already.

[RicerVw]

Save for an SR

[SleeperTec]

I think you need some recaro racing seats with 5 point harnesses my friend.. And maybe a better steering wheel for your drifting pleasures... also.. did you order your new springs yet??

[TripleZero]

Everything that tec said

[Vegas]

auto to 5 speed change over.......................might cost a little more though

[SmokeyTheBear]

if its an auto, change it. after that, SR20DET.

[Ricky_Rockstah]

you could do a 5 spd swap pretty easily, that motor is built, right?


turbo the KA!


piece together a kit off of a 240 board.

Exactly what I told him like an hour ago.

But yeah a 5spd swap if you're dissatisfied with the atx .. or turbo.. or swap. :D

[Mr. Merk]

turbo or SR20

[Tibby]

I'm gonna change my Auto to a five speed swap one of these days...I don't like the boring Driving part. :headshake:

[Vette666]

i agree w/you. i don't enjoy driving the dodge or the navigator as much. obviously it doesn't have the power of the corvette, but i miss being able to shift and all that jazz. terry tried to talk me into an auto when i was looking at corvettes b/c they ARE so consistent and theres less to go wrong (my car being a prime example), but i've always thought it was sinful to get a car like that and not be able to DRIVE it

lol last night we were out driving w/a couple friends, going to pick up my mom's navigator from my dads office b/c they flew to birmingham friday, and there was an older lady driving a c5.. it was funny to watch her b/c she turned a corner and it seemed the car got away from her a bit. she seemed sooo afraid of it, we all found it pretty humorous :laugh:

[Mr. Merk]

was it a red vert?

[Vette666]

yep, a maroon convertible. it was a beautiful car, she just had no idea how to handle it. it was an auto too

[Mr. Merk]

oh there was a cherry red vert with black top in our shop last week, automatic, some old lady, girlfriend of one of the school admins

[JasonH]

Didn't you just rebuild the KA?

1. Build a spool happy turbo kit

2. 5 spd.

[420octane]

my .02.....

give it an oil change then take a 2 week trip to jamaica with the change.

[drewgray]

Here is what you do. Block out everyone that tells you to do an SR swap and give them the fucking finger. Now, put on your smart cap and turbo that KA. O yeah, and keep it an auto.

[Maliwho97]

Errr, go to the bank, get a loan for another $4500, and buy my car. :D Then you'll have the phatest 240SX & one of the phatest civic's. Hehe
