Car advice - Jukie88 - 21-01-2013
Right basically I've got a fiesta ST which at the moment I generally drive the most as the pug is usually having bits done, but I'm. Bored of it do I
1) fix the 2nd gear synchro and swap It for a 1996 integra type r
2) swap it for a ph2 106 rallye with gti conversion and choice mods roughly 165bhp ?? Which needs a little work ??
Integra to me is nice but 16 years old and the 106 has 116k on the shell but 75k on engine and needs a little welding
All my st needs is a new gearbox 350/550 quid
Do I stick with it Or trade ??

16 years old tho ahhhhhh lol mines only 6 with half the mileage :-( I literally cannot decide what to do :-(

Personally I'd keep the ST!
Integras might be quick but they dont have many toys at all and are (imo) very dated inside now.
106 rallye/GTi not really big enough/reliable enough for a daily if it was me.
Have a second car that's more quick/fun and also less reliable/efficient imo......which I assume is you're 306 atm anyway....

Yeah it's is atm, the pug is meant to be my daily but now the front is 65mm and the back is standard it's. It gunna get driven till I find a torsion bar already lowered or i unseize mine, so have no choice but the st as a daily :-(

106 Rallye.

ST's are a bit girly, whilst being thirsty for the performance they offer. I'll concede that they are qiucker than my current car, but mine only sips diesel!
106 Rallye sounds a bit suspect and will be a bit of an arse with insurance etc. Not to mention the likelihood that you will drive it like a twat everywhere!
Integra is a safe bet, as these don't seem to depreciate too much in value.
I'd consider what your girly ST is worth once it's mechanically sound (ie. fix it and flog it) and then get a nice example of a DC2 Integra - if that's what tickles your fancy.
