Im in a real pickle here.

s***, that conversion looks insane... I may just have to go down to Georgia and invest in one of those! I can get my hands on an s-14 pretty cheap via someone I know... I'm probably look at a 10-11K total investment on a car that would be crazy fun to drive... hmmm then I wouldn't care that my MSP is a daily driver and I could toy around with that beast!
 
You have a newer, low mileage car, that gets good gas mileage and is fun to drive.

You're still in college.

Concentrate on college, get good grades, get a good job, then go and buy a nice car or faster play toy with the money from a career.

+1, totally agree. Thats what I did. Now I have a MS6 and my bike. Don't get in over your head in college. Plenty of time to build your car after when you have the money to do it right.

The swap takes about a month, I can hook you up with the number of the shop if you want me to.

Back on topic though, I think im just going to have to get over my ocd about the milage. Maybe ill put a piece of tape over the odo :)

your friends car is badass, lol. i can take it down if he doesn't want it up, juts thought i would post the newest swap that they did.

since mspi has started doing those swaps, i've been wanting a 240. i want a kouki. i'm torn though because i can't find one in the shape that i want that's not over 12k and i don't want to sell my protege. hopefully by the next summer i can find one and have it swapped.
 
I just put a business card over the milleage so I don't spend too much time looking at it but I have to remember to look for my oil change.
 
Ok, for now its staying with me. If someone makes an offer I cant refuse it will leave but thats not very likely so yea.. Ive got some plans for it though, just depends on what kind of job I can get this summer and how much money I spend over the course of next semester. Hopefully there will be some new toys to add after christmas.......
