Help me decide!

after recently losing my prelude i have several options for cars...

the '95 240sx with sr20det swap complete with right hand drive (2k for the car)

the '83 280zx with rb25 for a hella unique (not to mention fast) beater (1.5k for the car)

a 79 trans-am with a completely built block providing 500 lbs of torque but in need of a rebuilt transmission (linkage has gone bad as well as retarded gearing: 100mph capability in first gear) for $3500

lemme know what you guys think, please try to leave the recommendations between these 3 cars

mentally challenged gearing? (actually it could technically be called retarded gearing since it is delayed in acceleration)

I was so close to voting for the trans am, but I just don't have a big thing for older muscle cars. I love the newer trans ams though, can't beat the crazy torque on those monsters. I say get the S14 sr20det

I didn't notice that I answered your question with a question.

I would go for the the '83 280zx with rb25 for a hella unique (not to mention fast) beater (1.5k for the car).

I think that would be a one off great car.
