Help, buying a new car

[jrios]

hey im relatively new to the DSM scene. i have owned a 97 GS and then sold it and got a 95 GST which is my DD. im going to sell it since i was thinking about swapping tge 7 bolt to 6 bolt. and i came qcross a 98GST with a freshly rebuilt 6bolt, upgraded fuel pumo and fmic. and a some other mods. it will be my dd. only thing is it does not5 have a turbo. so im wondering wethet to go with 14b, 16g, or another turbo. which one should i buy for it?

16g is a fun turbo for DD, why are you thinking about swapping to a 6bolt?

Buying a car that needs work for a daily might be more trouble than it's worth.

I agree with the above statement... Buying a car that needs work is always a hassle because that usually means it has other little issues, we all know little issues ad up, just in general if someone is lacking a turbo or has a small problem and they do not fix it properly it means they don't deal with ther things well either. If you get the car try to get an Evo 3 16g if you can find one, be careful of fakes, they won't last as long usually. I daily a 1g with a 14b and it is fun, small and virtually lagless compared to anything I've been in with a bigger turbo but that comes along with a bigger turbo in most cases. Also if crank walk is scaring you from keeping the 7 bolt, it's not as common as people make it out to be.

I agree with badbird, why do you want a 6 Bolt block? I
Unless you are making a ton of power and worried about the infamous crank walk, I wouldn't worry about swapping to a 6 Bolt...

To answer the turbo question, 16g is a hell of a turbo and a real MHI 16g can be found easily for very reasonable prices.
