    What's wrong with putting a GTI-R engine in a Honda, who gives a fuck...don't see too many people bitching about the TDF TISMO conversion? Screw the pulsar, a complete Sunny GTI-R front clip is cheap...under $2k the last time i checked. Minus the 237whp monster vteckidd is selling you're not gonna get a decent b-series swap for that price. Of course you have alot of fabrication to do...

    When i first discovered/learned about the Sunny GTI-R i wanted one, 227hp stock...then with all the DOT, EPA, & registration bullshit I said screw it...i wanna see the complete powertrain and drivetrain in a EG hatch, AWD and all...the hardest part would be finding the driveshaft and rear end but to see a civic hatch doing flat spins in a parking lot would be priceless

    Since when did the pulsar come with a transfer case? It's a whole lot easier to fit a driveshaft and rearend then find a transfer case that will bolt up to an SR20 don't you think? The entire next paragraph explained why i wanted a Sunny GTI-R
