Well another delema has ensued (boy that makes me sound a little smart) but yea anywho.....

A buddy of mine has a 4dr civic sedan auto that runs drives but the motor is on its way out due to compression issues.....now this car is in pretty decent condition its a 1994 dx unknown miles i have no idea rebuilt head on its stock motor....

Now he has been looking for a 3dr civic eg hatch and I have that white one sitting in my back yard ive been doing work to it and stuff but its slowly getting the best of me in money terms that is and the winter i had hoped to get it done in has pretty much reared its head already

I have made a vowe to myself to get my red car off the road for this winter so i can work on it and i was going to get my white hatch on the road but no matter what i just keep finding things i want to fix on it before i do. So its pretty much become a headace of mine.

Now my buudy has offered me the 4dr and a undisclosed amount of cashe over 200 of coarse for it. now my question to you guys is should i do it? I mean i can do a 5spd swap to it with my spare parts and i got my Z6 in my cx i was gonna replace anyways with the ZC so yea i mean i got a crap load of hatch parts and like them alot however this particular hatch i just dont have any care for really my red cx id die for it the white one idk how i feel about it......

So really my question is should I trade and get a 4dr so i can drive that in winter and get a better hatch in the spring (ending up being my red cx) or should i push through and just try and get everything squared away with the white hatch....this kinda leaves my head spinning since i do have a connection to get me stuff to make the 4dr into a full lx model and stuff like that.....idk you guys please tell me what you think you guys would do if you where in my situation with lets say only 100$ to your name and alot of hours to go on the hatch and alot more money than you have to make the hatch good?

P.s. please even if you do vote please elaborate for me so i get a full understanding of why you choose that answer thank you

thats is up to you man. I love both my hatches. But I would also love a sedan. Im not sure how bad the white hatch is, but if its costing too much money and not anywhere close to being drivable, might as well swap them.

yea teh si will still need motor swap, I still have to weld on the core support and get headlights and some wiring done as well as I dont trust the previous owners job on the interior harness so I got a spare. but yea its gonna be a headace i think and As of right now i can get a power mirror swap for the sedan as well as I can get some more parts off of a parts car i found on craigslist that a guy is parting out so yea it probaly is going to be a better idea ot get a sedan i mean i do love my red cx hatch the white si not a big fan of i dont know why but i just dont......but i mean i love the hatch styleing but yea if i did do this I would get a fair amount of money enough to get a integra rs shell with blk interior and some aftermarket parts not used on it from a buddy of mine so i might be making out pretty decently if i can get this sedan running good and such that is i mean i have my z6 motor i can swap into it along with using parts from the teg make it possible to get it a 5spd which is good I like 5spd lol....but i also think this car once im done with it i can give it to my sister since she will end up needing a car soon and yea i mean i want her to know how to drive 5spd just in case.....
