Maybe if mine wasn't fading dark green, lower than stock height and didn't have 16" steelies. lol
Might look into a paint job, or swap everything into another 2G.

But with the VR4 you either you know what exactly it is or you don't, So I never get dumb questions about it from randoms. I always thought it would be the other way around.

Yay 1gs for life!! I am personally like the look of the 1ga better than the 1gb. I appreciate the looks of a 2g but would probably never buy one, I like the old school look.

In my opinion 1g's are more for the enthusiast who can truely appreciate what a fine machine it really is Straight from the keyboard of a 2g owner! The truth is revealed!

random missfires? First time I hear that one specific to the 2g. Crankwalk can happen to ANY car, including 1gs. It's just known more on the 7 bolt (which by the way was also used in some 1gbs) Borrowing parts from the 1g is only because they are cheaper. People with moola go aftermarket or upgrades (such as the 16g and up) from the factory. 2gs have a better exhaust manifold, shifter, rims, MAS if you want to go in the borrowing way. They both have parts that the other uses. 2gs have a more comfortable and ergonomic design; the controls hug the driver. 1g is comfortable (seat wise) but definitely not on its interior finish. Shock towers are a bad design, but that's the only one I don't see countered. Besides, mine aren't and I know many other who don't have them. Just take care of the car It's also a fault on the Skylines....and I wouldn't say no to a skyline

Yeah brother! I have been in very few cars that feel like a cockpit, I find the 1g super comfortable even compared to current day cars.

Ergonomic means easy/safe/less strain when using it (it's just the office people that gayed it up with chairs and keyboards)...you'd want that in a fighter jet, specially in times where things go fast Just like the Supra interior, it's all oriented towards the driver. Passenger doesn't NEED to press things It's good to have rivalry, seeing faults and correcting them is the essence of improving a design. Now if only we could get Mitsubishi to build a new one...

One thing I will agree the 1g has going over the 2g is less people screwing them up (also one of the reasons behind the 2g being known for crankwalk; all dumbnuts that have an issue with the engine on a 2g will, in most cases, automatically blame it on crankwalk). The 1g in general has more car enthusiasts behind it, mainly because it's more appealing to engine guys than looks only guys (due to its exterior). That gives it a more mature background. Although, being cheaper, it also attracts people with no money or car fixing abilities (so even then it's a bit of a random dispersion of the masses).
That being said 2gs, because they are naturally beautiful, will attract more that are only looks oriented. They will then mess with the electronics, engine not knowing what they are doing and giving it a bad rep. They also bring a lot of the "yo bro" community which I abhor.

2g Clutch assembly's are much better, 1g dashes look better, imo.
In the end, as much as I want another 2g instead on the 1g,there are enough things that I can't let it go.
