EK1 and EK4

[kraiye]

^^^
what he said, i wish i'd saved and go the EK4... then 80057 y0!

[freeman]

how much should i expect to pay for an ek4 these days?

and an ek1?

[[ricer]]

ek4 10-12ish
ek1 7-10ish
all depends on condition, kms, age, gli or cxi varient...

[simonnowis]

go with ek1 gli and get a conversion done, more satisfying if your into modding

[kraiye]

what budget are you looking at? what mods are you looking at doing?
if engine upgrading is your thing, i guess go the GLi and upgrade to B18c or something (H series / K series if you've got the cash).
If you're into other performance or cosmetic mods, or just want a first car that goes good without needing to mod it, I say grab the EK4 cause you'll get the B16A.
If you CBF modding anything, look for one with I/H/E and suspension already done

[Hacs]

whatever the option.. make sure it has OEM rear tail-lights dude. trust me

LOL
maybe he likes RICE! haha

<======= like me

and if you don't get the EK4, mod the taillights to look like EK4

[freeman]

Nah I don't want to mod it. I've had enough of modifying, I used to be into nissans and modding. I can't stand the headaches that come with it.

These days I want something that already has the work done, or is good from the factory. So, I wouldnt mind buying an EK with a B18C or even just a standard ek4/vtir

[freeman]

right now im leaning towards EK1, because i cant find any ek4's for sale and i dont really care anyway.

i can just sell the ek1 later on and get a nicer ek4 or something i guess

[kraiye]

make sure it's had an engine swap or boosted or something!
ek1 = sl000w

[kayot1k]

just get the cheapest ek you can find.
be it cxi or gli. and just ripp the motor out for a K's transplant.

(b - series is so last century.)

guarenteed to make you smile all day every day.

jus get the EK1 with gd paint and nice interior. Chuck in a B18CR. Find 1 under $7000, dun worry Kilometres but u can press price down if high kms.

I will be stupid to buy an EK4 and wanna get more power and put in a B18CR and find it hard to sell the B16 engine. The extra $4k is not gonna be recoup unless ur B16a is perfect condition but it will cost more in 1st place. haha. So jus get the EK1 and drop a B18CR $7k+$7k=$14k, that will kill EK4. haha gd luck..

BUT!! EK4 have nicer seats, 1-9k rpm tacho, not in GLI, Sunroof, rear swaybar and brakes are diff. But still EK1 with B18CR is the best option. Sunroof is heavy and swaybar can be bought, needless to say for the tacho and seats. !!
