buzzkill. I've got to post some pics of my parts car. the guy hit a concrete above ground manhole cover sideways with the drivers side at like 45 mph. Says he 'dodged a raccoon'. He ended up on the passenger side of the car with a concussion and no broken bones. the car was bent like a banana and there was nowhere left for the driver to sit.

Seriously, I'm sorry you went through that and I won't make light of it. I just think it'd be cool to have a schiitbox to jump stuff and beat the daylights out of

JDMEnthused- just out of curiosity how much are you shelling out for your RB20 motor set if you don't mind me asking?

I'm considering doing a fully built turboed KA now, but I change my mind all the time. don't really have the money to do anything yet...

haha, yeah real front heavy tho that is how I understeered that one right into a median flippin it 3 times. RWD is far supperior in the turns but the balance of the 240 is just soooo much better than any eclipse. I did have a celica after the DSM that handled like it was on rails. I loved the balance and handles of the car but it didn't have the power of the DSM...240 has the best of both worlds.

ok guys starting to have some doubts about going ka-t! i dont know what to do!!! i want something different but it seems like that's the "new thing" urrr! what about RB25? Its about the same price and I'd get more BANG for the BUCK! the only problem I am having is parts. I wonder if its REALLY hard to find OEM parts like water pump ect... and where I can get it from other than straight from JAPAN... mmm back to researching....

btw- with saying this my spare ka MAY be for SALE-- any offers? it comes w/ a flywheel but NO manifolds... i may part out the whole motor lol

Yea i deserve an award for that one. lol yea if they swap a RB26 into a 67' Mustang Fastback then why not put in a F20C. But if i really had the money i would definately look at the VG swap Wes was pondering about before he changed his mind. Kind of different
