Personally, I'd rather keep your current car. It's a more desirable chassis in my opinion, and from the pictures, it looks much nicer as well.

Yea I do agree, my paint job is so fresh.but recently I used filler on the roof before painting, an I am really uncomfortable with filler on any of my cars I own. I like straight metal. Filler on the roof yikes.

I wouldn't do it personally. But you did say you were planning to go V8 anyways. It wouldn't take much to make that S13 look good. It already looks better than most VH swaps with holes cut in the hood. But VH45>VH41 though
