1989_N/A

I am in the process of having to fix my car. I blew some seals on it and now ave to rebuild it.

I was eventually wanting to put in a turbo motor that I had bought and rebuilt and all that so I knew it was in good shape. But I was thinking. I have about $4000 to work with on this. I dont want to spend all of it on my car but...

I dont know if it would be smarter to rebuild my N/A motor and know that its got good parts in it, or if I should go with a JDM turbo motor and probably still need to rebuild it anyway.

I was thinking of rebuilding the motor and putting in a new rad, new oil and trans coolers, upgrading the fuel system, and upgrading the ignition. I had also thought about putting a stand-alone in it if I have the extra money. But I am also wanting to put in some new seats and do some body work to it, put in a short throw shifter and throw on a lowering kit.

I just dont know what to do. If yall were in my position, or have been, what would/did yall do?? Im so clueless and could really use yalls help.

I'll be honest with you I bought a full JDM swap and The biggest reason I bought it was not because it was JDM but because I got it at a really decent price. Had I done a bit more research and asked a few more questions I probably wouldn't have gotten it. I unlearned in the ways of the rotary jedi. My biggest draw to it was price but second was a little higher HP and emmissions already removed and (supposed) Low mileage. On the flip side biting off more than I should have will pay off in the acomplishment department. Anyway spend wisely to be too quick to go JDM... Also try to stay in the same series if you do go JDM... lol
