invest in something more financially rewarding? If you need to ask people on the internet what to do with your money then I would suggest doing something more responsible with it.

Obviously you want to swap your daily driver and make it fast. If you buy the Sr, at minimum I would do a factory spec rebuild and refresh on everything you can. This will cost you a pretty penny (in the realm of 7 grand or more depending on how you budget and what work you do)

Rims? They look good yes but after a while you will have to address other issues on the car. When you buy rims, all you do is stare at your car from every possible angle. It gets old. Not like stale or anything but you get bored. I'm sure your car isn't 100% perfect either.


Use that money towards something more productive

Shit ton of people call wheels rims. I got flamed for saying "rims" once and since then I heard Daniel Ricciardo call them rims in an interview. F1 driver wins. I win. You loose. Shaddup.


OT: I would get neither. I'd buy a much more reasonably priced set of wheels on good rubber and bank the rest.

Automotive enthusiasts become such linguistics scholars whenever someone calls wheels rims, while the rest of the time they can barely formulate a legible sentence.

Sell your supra and S14 and buy Meisters and SR. But make copies of the keys then take your cars back. Best of both worlds.

But what would be more responsible is to spend your money joining the military and defending our nation against terrorists.

My vote is for:

Option 3) You are a moron.

Just because you have money burning a hole in your pocket, does not mean that you should bother us with a "what should I do with my money" poll.

Think about it. If you had any bit of logic, you would think about what is more important and what takes precedence given your current situation. For example...

If your current engine is weak, high mileage, etc... then it would make sense to put that money into either a rebuild or replace. And if you buy a replacement, what makes you think that engine is not going to require more time and money? There are very few SR20DETs out there that are in tip-top condition. You easily could end up buying a clutch and/or turbo at the bare minimum, and possibly a rebuild if the engine is not as advertised. It happens all the time.

And if you need tires for example, then it would make sense to put that money towards wheels, rims, or whatever else you guys want to fucking call them. If you are going 5-lug, again... it would make sense to spend that money on wheels.

What does not make sense is to make a fucking poll and ask strangers....

ya fuckin moron

mEISTERS. Putting a motor that you can't immediately get parts for in your daily is a dumb idea. Buying legit wheels to kill the game is always a better idea. Make sure you get them in baller specs and get a air freshener hang with a half naked lady on it that doesn't actually freshen the air in your car. Post instagram pix. Win.

You don't get schweg points for SR's. Only JDM points. And JDM points are about as useful as Iraqi denar.

hmm

a twenty year old antique engine that needs a rebuild, gets one, falls apart within 500 miles and you sell the whole car in quiet frustration,

or

a set of wheels that you can look at, other people can look at, and thats about it for 2k


I'd say neither, go for the mc chickens, no doubt
