I own a FD .
When I talk to people who have a FC they say they wish they could afford a FD. The FD is costly all around. I have a ton of money in mine and I am not running yet do to my lack of time. Also I need o spen a few more $$$ to have it running.
If you go with a FC you deffently will be on thecheaper side of things. FC look good but do not compare to a FD. I would get a FC myself to have as another toy to play with, but wouldn't trade my FD for anything. Well maybe a R34.
Bottome line, add 20 percent to your coast that you think you will spend on fixing up a FC or FD and go from there Also you dont want to get a car then fix it up and wish you got the other. Try to drive both and go with what feels good to you.

Like I mentioned before, the FC is an absolute blast to drive at or just above it's limits...when a well sorted FC begins to let go, it's (for me anyway ) pretty easy to reel it back in. I've never driven a Nissan 240sx, but I imagine they're pretty similar at the limit: Kinda tailhappy, but easily controlled.
The FD, in my experience, is flat-out quicker around any given road course, but it's also a bit of a handful when it DOES finally begin to slide. My '93 is definitely less twitchy than my '01 Miata, but it's way scarier too.
lol, I almost soiled myself at Buttonwillow, trying to lose a guy in an EVO VIII.

FD -- sexy, sleek and fast. I BEAT THE **** out of my FD and it runs like a champ. Honestly, although the FD is a blast to drive, and i love everything about it, the fun factor in the FC is just a bit better. Maybe because i could crash the FC into a wall and pay 500 bucks for a chassis..
I wouldnt trade my FD for any FC, but id buy an FC in a heart beat.
