Probably need some more info on the FD's condition and mods. In good condition, those are worth more than your car and have already depreciated as much as they are going to...while I'm not sure we've reached rock bottom on the ap1 yet.
As mentioned...the FD will not be very reliable. It will be more expensive to maintain. You had better be a decent wrench or be good friends with one or you'll be paying quite a bit in repairs/maint. Also better have a daily driver as a back up.
Personally, I love the FD...still the best looking car Japan ever made IMO (the NSX and then S2k close behind). I put many miles on a stock one when they were new...amazing car. If they were still bringing them to the US when I was car shopping 6 yrs ago, I would have bought it in a heart beat over the stook.

I wouldn't trade the S though but I would have both. Just like everyone said keep cash on hand for any troubles that may rise. Including a beater if you decide to trade up.
