Default Found a slammin deal, need some opinions

So I am in the middle of making my first HMT setup(daytona t3, jrsc doube backdoor, 450s, hf/adapter, a6) in my 89 si and I came across a car that I have always wanted on a local forum board. its a DA GSR(92) and I could gt it for 900-1000 bucks. The bad- It doesnt start. When I went to look at it, i found that someone had messed with the dizzy wires and so they were all ghetto electrical taped and half of the wires werent even making ANY connection. So I figured that would probably do the trick. it also has a lot of rust and ricer head/tail lights w/ no stock replacements.

I would want to swap the brakes and suspension into my car for sure, and then I could sell the b17 and make 500 bucks plus get brakes and suspension. I would want to toss in the b17 for a while, but im afraid i'll never go back to D" again. I am still debating on whether to buy this car or finish my turbo set up first... opinions?

Whats involved in making a hydraulic tranny work in my car(89 si), if its too much work, ide probably sell the tranny and motor as one, or trade plus cash for a b16 cable tranny.

I know, but does it use a clutchmaster cylinder, or does it just convert it to a cable tranny?
