This is exactly what I'd do with an FD.
Also, remember the plastic parts, door handles, and interior are very fragile on the FD chassis. roll the window down every time you get in and use the door frame to close the door and don't let passengers use the door hand to pull.. it'll crack

And yes - I gave my wife a long list of rules for how to get in/out of the car. She was thrilled.Haha.

Man I'm not sure. K swapping can make an objectively better car but IMO not a subjectively better FD. Maintaining the original spirit of any car is important to me, even if I want to slap a lot of parts on it.

if you stick with the 13b you should watch the Caffine and gasoline video series on driving two FD's to all 48 states.

Funny you mention the new REWs, I've been considering picking one up as a nice insurance policy. They're less available than they used to be and increasing in price.....just like what happened to S2k engines a few years ago. Ugh.

I’m personally glad you’re staying rotary. They’re so neat.

my financial situation has evolved over the past few years and im half tempted to just place an order for a new Spoon Sports short block now while I can because yolo. I'll never sell my car and I'm slowly refreshing everything after 100k miles to oem+
