a new way to go? maybe

Ok after that NA to turbo post ive thought about some stuff. Im looking to make a quick car. Right now i have an Eclipse RS. I have about 2000 saved in which i was going to buy a turbo kit for the RS. But i had an idea. My sister gets her license soon and i could "hand me down" the car to her and use the turbo money towards a GS-T. Whats the price range for a 97-99 gst? Would mods such as strut bars transfer over without problem? i would think so right?

Yup a strut bar would be transferable. Im glad you considered what i said and what others said.

Well im from Canada so a GS-T here goes for 18000-12000 or so. Im not sure what that is in USD.

i think you got a tremendous idea. being that she is your sister, you could hand her down a quick car [that ain't too quick] that looks cool, and hook yourself up with an upgrade you will be happy with... go for it!!! and everything that does not have to do with the engine is transferable... remember, it's only a different engine/drivetrain...
