K swap advice.
Alright I have a K20a2 head on k20a3 bottom, im planning on buying a shell and swapping it in but not keeping the car. so i was wondering what shell i should put it in the get a quick sale? and yes i know i could just sell the swap but putting it in a car will get me more money in the end.
I welcome all negative rep. but will give positive to anyone the least bit helpful.

Re: K swap advice.
K20a3 bottom is not the choice you should go with. The A3 is the eco motor not meant for sportiness. Its still a fun motor, but k24>K20A3.
worth of the bottom end of a A3.... jack shit, its worth the block in scrap.
no, I wouldnt put it in "real quick". I would sell the A2 head for 350, and scrap the bottom end.
You do realize the 02-04 rsx ecu's are in the neighborhood of $200 before kpro, which is another 900. Even just to run a Immobilizer in a stock ecu is another 250. Or run a JDM ecu is at least 300.
trans is not the 400 gsr. its a average of 750 for a 6 speed, or 800 for a ep3.
Essentially:
If your not trying to build a car for yourself to enjoy, then dont look at k series.
