Why I am not going to swap a TII engine into my 87 base.drftk1d 09-25-2004, 04:03 PM Because i am going to buy an FD. I figure its less expensive for me to start with a factory turbo car and modify it from there. The only problem is finding one that matches exactly what i want. I'm actually not too picky, i just want white and manual, and i dont care about any other options. Soyo 09-26-2004, 01:46 AM good luck with your search man, keep us updated TanKaBoY 09-26-2004, 02:58 AM good luck on ur search find a series 8 if u can =D drftk1d 09-26-2004, 01:26 PM I thought all of the american FDs were series 6? correct me if i am wrong but didnt the series 8 come out in 99 and on top of that only in japan? FDs here stopped in 95 :( renesis13t 09-27-2004, 02:58 AM i dont think the swap really costs that much even if you find a turbo car your probally are going to have to rebuild that motor at some pt and keep in mind that is you go with a na car and do the turbo swap into it your insurance will be cheaper...... drftk1d 09-27-2004, 01:19 PM i'm still debating it. i have the money for an FD but i remebered about the insurance, maybe i can have my mom cover it (shes like 40 and a good driver so shes got good rates). drftk1d 09-28-2004, 09:36 AM I WANT A 3rd GEN! i saw black one for 14k and white one for 11 but its automatic... still fishing... FCsilvia 09-29-2004, 01:30 AM hey tankaboy, don't be an idiot. unless you live in Japan or plan on doing a replica swap over, then no one stateside can get a Series 8 legally. white 5sp FDs are pretty hard to find nowadays. I wanted one until I saw an original 1993 Competition Yellow Mica R1 FD3S. Couldn't help it so I had to get it. It'll be in my driveway this coming January. yay!
