should i? or should i not?

ok heres the thing...

I have a conv. 1993 24sx with an r32 skyline front end. has a ka24de in it. i have already bought an rb25 and it is being overhauled as i type. should i put it in the conv. or buy another 240 but this time a HATCH or COUPE? my goal is to reach 600 hp and 600hp in a conv. might be scary. also should i swap front ends to my hatch or leave it on the conv and drive it or swap front ends then sell the conv?

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

I have a CA if anyone is interested as well.

its your car, do what you want. if you do however decide to stick with the convertible, make sure to get some chassis braces or weld in your own along with roll over bars.
