something that should help you choose an swap is what will trhe car be used for? (auto-x, daily driver, drag, etc)

and how much do you want to spend?

I am always asking people those questions but it's the first step when planning a swap :thumb:

If cash is tight right now, do a set up thats easy on the pocket. You can always do upgrades down the road.

It's kind of sad, because working on it and improving it is so much fun, but then down the road I can do some mean upgrades :D
