I thought the ls is a good swap since they have more torque than other engines..

i had a bummer last month! I hate my self..

First the story, In holland we got for a year now a new law. You get 2500 Euro off when you buy a new car, BUT you have to junk your current car.
Sooooo.... i found a EG coupe (EJ??) and had all the books and stamps from the dealership, with only 132k KM on the clock. The interiour was sooooo Fresh, it looked new!
Even the floor looked new!!!

So 2 days later i came back for the electronic parts and all dash parts and all other black panel parts Interior. BUT IT WAS ALL GONE..! i almost cried :cry: he only wanted 250 bucks for it.... damned
