o, i forgot to answer the question.
I would go with whichever car is lower to the round. Which ever car is lower, it recieves less harmonic frequencys that if it were as small as 2inches higher.
Harmonic frequencoes can play with ur CPU making it seems like u are going 4000 rpm when in reality, the car is turned off and with the handbrake

WTF are you talking about first of all. Second, to answer the actual question, it depends on your liking. I prefer the hatch any day but that's just me.

Haven't you guys ever turned off your car and noticed that the RPG-o-meter is like at 9000rpm? also, your hands are on the steering wheel and you make racecar noises? this is harmonic frequencies.

yes, it goes off the scale when i play FFXI. but seriously tho, never seen it. ever.

oh yeah, i like hatches. thats my opinion, i think they fit the nose cone better and have tons more trunk space. also more bass gets into the cabin =P id rock either however. all personal taste in the end. to each his/her own

s13 is still the chasis code for the front end he was referring to, you knew what he was talking about...I'm sure pretty much everyone else knew what he was talking about, stop trying to be cool and technical.

this topic is ghey....if your asking this because you want to decide which one to get, jump off everyone elses dick and buy whichever one you like.
