Just looking at your sig... you're putting a 2.5L into your 323???
Hilarious! I've owned five of those little buggers - actually toyed with the idea of putting a GTX engine in one of them, but it seemed like too much work.
Love my 323s - best winter car ever (if a little primitive inside) and they handle great.

Lesley, is yours the black Dakota the one that had originally the v6 and put the v8 in it?

Yeah! How did you remember that?
I still have it, that was a crazy swap, I bet I could've had a new kitchen and windows all around for what I spent on that truck.

Here's a link if you're interested:

Yea I've been driving the is300 for awhile and where its got a little get up and go but its still a fat whore and doesn't go as fast as i want. As its not paid off yet I don't want to invest money into it yet, so I grabbed a 323 for 250, i've got all the parts needed for the swap now minus a klg4. Planning on putting a cheap ebay turbo setup on it to give it a little bit more power and just have fun with it. The entire project should cost about 2500.
