Wow! I just read all 12 pages of this famous/infamous thread!
As a recent arrival, I want to thank all parties who participated. I have absorbed more information (and attitudes) more quickly than I could have on any other thread.
This is the reason I'm spending so much time hanging out on this forum. I have limited funds, but I am a mechanic and I have decent tools. And I have a 1990 4-door LX with a D15.
At least now, I have a much better idea of where I want to go with my vehicle.
Once again, thanks to all! The diversity in level of knowledge and passion is incredible!

I've forgotten what the heck that thread was about - can we have a synopsis please? ;)

I have decided to try to wear out my D15. It's at 150,000 miles right now, and I intend to get at least 300,000 out of it. While I'm wearing out that engine, I'm going to be saving up for the swap.
It is worthwhile to upgrade to a MPFI, to have more fun and save some fuel during the next couple of years. I am going to get some lowering springs, just to lower it about an inch.
I want a big brake setup for the front. I want rear discs, maybe sometime next year.
Once this engine gives up the ghost, I'm going for......(build the suspense here...) a B-16!
I don't mind doing the swap and putting in different motor mounts, changing axles, etc.
Also, I think the B-16 will be easier for me to get going. Swapping out a whole unit, to me, seems easier than tearing apart and rebuilding a D16.

PS-Not into increasing heat by installing a turbo, can't spend the money to supercharge.
