i voted number 4. if you've lost your passion for something, why keep it? move on to a new challenge. you've proved you can tune a FD, sell it, take a break, pay off debt, and wait for the passion to drive you back to cars or to soemthing else.

either sell, or go with an ls1!!



a car is a car, nothing to get all worked up over. anything can be replicated with time and money.

I voted bike. Better power/weight ratio than anything LS1, no mods needed, factory warranty and low maintenece costs.



Helps pay off debt too.



If you have good bike skills get a TLR. They're around 12-13k new, but 155rwhp in a bike that weights less than 600lbs with rider.



Peace.

Sell it, pay off some debts, then get something practical.

you imagine wrong, young one. forsooth my near stock gsl-se will happily run with single turbo fd's at thunderhill, nay even pass the noisy one

we had a BBQ/cruise in the bushkills park lots of crazy turns... i had my old trusty 89 GTU.... need less to say i was keeping up with 400+ HP FD's in the TURNS! they were getting pretty pissed.... at the time i had more ***** than hp



its easier to make a slow car turn fast than a fast car turn fast and not spin out and hit something... my FD is glued to the road which is good well when it wasn't smashed

How about pay off debt? Why have an unreliable car that puts you in the hole.
