I think you should do it if you can get another wrecked one with a motor for a good price otherwise its pretty pointless. Just my opinion.

It sounds like a good sr swap car.I guess it wouldn't really be a swap.

just get the one with the best body and lowest amount of rust if you plan on swapping. No sense on swapping engines twice just do it the right way the first time and get a good ka as a back up

it depends on the condition of the 95 if its better and just as cheap then it makes no sense to go with the older style in worse condition. Also dfoes the 95 have a motor already and how much could you buy the 95 for.

the motor in the 95 is blown and it needs an over fender. not sure of the price yet but its going to be prolly around 600-700.

if you can get the 95 for around 700 bucks, and the body is in good condition and interior as well. Go for the S14(IMO)
