I just got recently a EP3 and im waiting till 10,000 miles to turbo so im thinking in about 2 month at the most ill be at 10,000 miles. But my friend bought my Mr2 and i was think between two things.

By a Turbo kit for my Ep3 or by a 90 something 240. I dont know to much bought 240's and it be a great project car but i dunno. I know like everyone posts thread like "what car should i buy what paint etc" But im stumped. My Ep3 is a daily driver and i dunno pretty much think bout that and what would you do cuz im 50/50 with both

BUY a 240 or Turbo!!

Peace

I only had 1 car turboed car before my integra (well i had a gti but who cares) anyway the integra i didnt drive everyday, i got about an hr total with traffic for work everyday so a turboing would be ok, just low boost. Well who cares haha a turbo ep3 would be nice, desisions desisions desisons hah, i forgot to, having 2 cars on car insurance sucks

well you know when you think about something but when you say it outloud or in this case type it you kinda think better, well i wanna keep my ep3 for a long time i never keep a car long so i want to this one so i think im going to just keep working on the ep3, maybe one day ill buy a 240, bills do suck and that be another one right there. Or maybe ill hit up Atlantic City and win big and rock both hah

Whatever is most practical for you, although of course the 240 will be a funner project.

I am a member of a local Si forum, and some of these guys are putting down some awesome numbers with Cybernation (sp?) kits and the some newer release of the JRSC

Yeah i was on Ephatch and saw the cybernation, seems good, the shop in my area i go to sells Tubonetics kits with Spearco intercooler etc, and its a toss up cuz its pretty much the same. So far the cybernation is looking better. But i dunno, whenever i get all these thing i wanna do in my head i cant think straight to excited i guess hah

Check out the new street edition JRSC too, I heard that boasts some nice numbers as well.

yeah i love the Mr2 my roommate loves them so much and hes never had a nice car like only older cavi or neons so i gave him and amazing deal and i still get to drive it but i like the fact that he is happy so thats cool. I kinda now wish i took the rims off but at the time i had a 00 si and the 5 lug wouldnt have fit

No problem, hope it helps. There are actually several people on that forum with turbos if you want to poke around.

I came across this road with my 01' coupe last year, either turbo my civic (daily driver) or buy a project car. I bought the 240sx hatch as a project car and couldn't be happier. Fun car to drive. Tons of aftermarket support and sr20det engines are cheap, easy and very easy to come across.

Go 240. If your planning on keeping the EP3 for a long time get the 240.. or else you will just keep sinking your cash into the EP3 untill you dont want to drive it daily because of door dings, boost issues, rain, snow ect. If you get a 240, you can just keep that and build the hell out of it and leave the EP3 basically stock. Get the 240!

240 sounds good, can find em cheap usually if they have a blow engine, and sr20's arent too expensive either so if you get lucky, for a few K you have a 240 with an sr20 to play with and your ep3 as a nice reliable daily driver
