Investing in the stock market atm is suicide.

1. get a b18 type r conversion to my ek1. = new parts for the swap in my mind are rediculously expensive atm, very bad time to consider it unless you could find them at reasonable costs
2. sell my ek and combine the money i get to buy an ep3. = great lil cars, heaps of fun, why not if you can afford it
3. keep my ek and use the money to deposit for a house. = an idea, but I like renting personally, especially with the way shiz in the world is going atm, one less expense I'm thankful not to have, a house loan...
4. travel and get perspective in life = worthwhile option if your single, have no uni commitments, etc

if you travel do not go to japan unless u take a couple of extra suitcases for all the JDM parts you will be so tempted into bringing home

pretty sure they are veryyy cheap over there

Putting it into the stock market isn't suicide at the moment. It depends on your goals. If you are looking at investing long term and have the balls to ride this through your could make some very good money. If you are doing it in the short term, yes it is suicide.

I'd put $5000 into a managed fund or index etf and put the other $5000 towards travel/rebuilt motor. Then put a little into the managed fund/etf each month, reinvest your dividends and after 10 years you'll have a nice amount sitting there.

As you can probably tell I study Finance
