If you are considering buying:
1. 1988 honda ~$600
and
2. 1997 VR4 ~$16,000
then you need to figure out what the hell you want. Oh, and people who are capable of doing swaps wouldn't keep their GSX stock for long.

Keep in mind that 3000GT VR4s are very expensive to fix.. Personally id go with the H22 Prelude..Decent power... and they look great...

OK, to clear this up. I guess I do make things kind of confusing sometimes. I am a 14 year old male. I am still in middle school, but will soon be moving to High School. Anyways this was to place before you what the cars are that I have decided to tinker with on my way to achieving the vast knowledge of cars that I wish to one day hold. If you look at the legend at the end of my post you will see what the car has stock and what I plan to swap in there in place of that engine. I do not have an unlimited fund or mass of money, what I plan to do is save for the first car and do everything to it that I plan and then move up the list by trading in or selling the car and/ or parts to make enough money for the next car on the list in descending order. Thank you for reading this rediculously long, but greatly need post. :evillol:

I understand exactly where you're coming from... but you don't seem to know what you want.
How much money will you have?
Do you want a reliable car or a fast car?
I did the same thing as you when I was younger, but now that I think of it, I had considered some really dumb cars. You live and learn, you can't learn what car is for you before you buy/try most of them.
Keep telling your parents that you want/are going to buy a 1995 GSX. If they know you've wanted it for 2+ years, they will not dissapoint you. It's a high maintenence car that is pretty fast. What more can I say?
