Well the possibility has been in the air for a while now. Im considering selling my Civvy, and I'm going to be gettin a nice check from the insurance agency, and couple the fact that ive been winning a good amount in poker lately, I need to start preparing for the future. I might keep the civvy untill Im out of college, and then get something to play with while I tune it. Havnt decided yet. The next car I get, I want it to have potential for drag-racing. Im looking for something with rediculous amounts of power.
First choice:
Sell the civ, get something now
Keep the civ, get something after college
next:
So, out of these choices for new car:
Fox-body 5.0
WS6 T/A
1st or 2nd gen Eclipse GSX
351windsor swap on my v6 stang convertable
other
Discuss, and please back up with reasons ^_^

I say 1G GSX bored/stroked to 2.2, 16G swap, FMIC, moderate bottom end build, overhauled head. The only reason I can offer you is that you'll be able to beat any of the other cars you listed there, with infinitely more potential.

i'd go with this option...keep the money coming to you as food money while in college. going hungry SUCKS...it sucks even more when you can't afford ramen(and that stuff's cheap as hell).

Unfortunately, the 2G engine is less stable, the turbo is ridiculously small for a 4G63, and it's heavier. They do look sexy though.
