new si's are heavy and bulky, Em1 si is too much like the ex/lx chassis meaning crappy set up. EP3's have mad potential in less time.

It is easier to put a better k-series in the ep3 than it is to put any k-series in the previous generation cars. Much cheaper too.

i'm assuming you can probably just swap out the head? rather than doing a complete swap.

07 Si FTW. K20 > B series.
