How hard would it be to save 500 bucks and buy a piece of shit beater? It's a sad sight to ditch a high performance vehicle because you can't afford gas. Hell, you'd probably save money in the long run for insuring two vehicles with all the discounts they give nowadays.

Well this is obviously a biased question, it really depends if you want something reliable or not....

I've never owned a 4g63, are you saying they arent very reliable with mid range miles?

Go check out DSMTuners.com, thats the thing people love DSMs but they are always broken some way or another, when people get a 4g63 (especially if they mod them) they arnt the most reliable thing in the world, not saying they are bad motors but its just the world of DSMs, also you are looking at an almost ten year old turbo motor which is most likely been beaten on if you get a GSX. Havent you read the infamous "You own a DSM if..."?

thats true, a buddy of mine just got a 95 GSX, that was owned by his grandmother since 95 lol, only had 36,000 miles on it. He put on a t4 kit, two weeks later, the car started acting strange, not wanting to start, smoking, ect. But i did just get approved for a $6k loan, i'm thinking of keeping the stealth, adding some dr650 turbos, then spending about 1500 on a civic or something for good gas mileage, and saving about 2k for gas for the stealth lol.

lol, don't get a GSX for the gas mileage that's for sure. Mine is competely stock except for kn filter and i get between 17 and 19 mpg.

just buy a beater to DD and keep the stealth for weekends/nice days plus, as said above, you'll get a discount for multiple cars too.
