because im kinda new to the scene and i am only 17 i need your guys' opinion on a few things
first my ka24e is biting the dust and looking for a swap. have been thinking, and i know a guy with a 327 and i have heard of the v8 swap with ls1's and ls7's and it sounds really cool and different because everyobody goes to the sr.
secondly, the body kit i wanna get is this one

dude, dont swap just bcause its COOL, v8 swaps are for the guys loaded with moneys... and SR's are for the f*** :inoutgay: :laugh: ka's are tough as s*** so you might wanna consider just rebuilding it if you are short on funds,and beleive it or not, you will be different for keeping your ka lol. also that body kit is for a silvia... do you have an s13 conversion?

yea i do its haggard as s*** but i do have one...i was thinking of just going kade and building off that as well...my dads building an s14 with a turbo'd de and hes making 500 with fuel pump cams and a t3/4 at 20 psi with coils and crap. so maybe i should just go with the ka.

I wish I would have focused on school instead of some 20 year old econo s*** box.

your a tool.

op. don't worry about a v8. it's too expensive. Im 18, and im in the middle of an sr swap. Ive literally put every penny into my car since last september. It's nice doing stuff to it, but at the same time, I already know that I'm going to look back and wish I had waited to spend 7k dollars on my car instead of going out an doing fun sh**. If you must do something, rebuild the ka, or swap in an sr. If you just have to go all out, do what that guy on here is doing and super/turbo charge the KAE. good luck though!
