Otherwise I think I'd still prefer a 4g64. My dash has to come out anyways so I can work on the heater housing, so I'll have the harness exposed. I found a 4g64 8g salvage car here in Vegas for $400 that was in a rear end collision. So I can swap literally everything over. The 4g64 just seems better all around. And for anyone that'll say I should just scrap it and buy a 4 cylinder 8g, I agree with you. I understand that's a better option, and easier one, but it's a sentimental thing for me. I refuse to let this car die.
