99 is obd2 and a hassle when u mod it.. stick w/ the 95.

the only thing that are better on the 99.. the IM flows a little better and the tranny shift works are steel, not alum.

I would go for it they body looks more modern and the engine would be very similar to what you have now.

yeah, very simple and inexpensive, all you need is a conversion harness (100 bucks MAX!) and an obd1 p28 (150 MAX!). yeah, if the body and whole car is nicer and you can afford it, i say go for it.

also, check with your insurance on the price difference.

well if your car is pretty shitty and you can get enough money to get the 99 striaght up, do it. I like both bodies, but if one is mint and the other is shabby, i'll take the monit one.
