my car has 308,000 km on it but the body looks really good but the back wheel wells have rust holes, i just need help deciding if its worth it to keep it and put a low km engine in it or just buy another avenger but a i4
rust in the wheel wells? u should have sum fender guards which are rubber, so it really depends where u have the rust, i say take the wheels off and fix that rust, drop in a 3.0 and get right back on track
i concur. try to get the rust problem fixed, and sell the car. the v6's sell for higher than the I4's so you shouldn't have any problems coming out even in the end or just a little over/under. just expect to have to replace the clutch on the I4 [around $200 for the kit] when you get it. just in case. lol
unless im missing the point here, 2.5 swap, out of the question. its a waste of time and money, check the write-ups forum, there's all the info u need for the 3.0, just a few wiring modification and a mixture of parts to get ur swap done properly, or if u ur close, take it to:
for a very good price they could set u up, I'm talking just around 1000-1500 depending on the engine, and thats with them getting u an engine, my figures could be off a little bit, but i can attest the 2.5 swap would be just as expensive, so why sacrifice enjoyment? do it while u can.
