    Your car really is grabbing my attention. I usually don't prefer the coupe, but yours is real nice. Especially the rear end. Almost has that authentic AW11-ish look and feel.

    You're swapping a 2se motor in place of the 3sge?

    Also a short shifter from a st165 will fit in the 162.

    ya but only temporarly as the 3s-ge has broken valve stems, crushed valves, a hole in the #1 piston, blown connecting rods, blown crank and a blown oil pump if the engine is rebuildable i will rebuild it and if its not il save up for a jdm second or third gen 3s-ge. i only need to disconnect the header and injector clips to get the engine out of the parts car.

    i hope the gt motor isnt goin in! thats a big down-grade. going from sport to economy. the power sucks! lol i know personally. and if its the 2se, you'll get nothing but great gas mileage! :hehe
    rebuild the ge or save for the gte. thats what i would do.

    I know you just want to keep going but the motor is too different imo

    You'd have to swap Radiators, loom, exhaust, MAF etc. Maybe less hassle to get the
    parts car running?

    i have to get the good car running though and im pretty sure it will cost less to buy a new 3s-ge then to rebuild the one thats currently in. the quote i got for the cylinder head was $750.00 and i dont have alot of money at this time :(
