im lookin for a good project car.
1 it has to be cheep
2. it has to have good aftermarket support
3. needs to have potential

please help me guys thanks!

 

older honda....

 

corolla gts (rwd)

nissan nx

mazda miata


those are just a few of the cars ill be looking at for project cars soon hopefully

 

oh and two more tings lol sry guys
it needs to be rear wheele drive
and it needs to be able to keep up iwth my friends 67 mustang that puts out around 325 at the wheeles

 

Older Miata with some suspension and engine work.

I've seen 5.0s swapped into them, but I'd much rather prefer a smaller lightweight turbo setup.

 

to be honest im not really feelin mitas jus tnot my thing..... gts might be a good idea but is there any chance of buildin it up to beat the pony?

 

you can make them quick but probably not that quick unless you do a swap, what about picking up a 240sx or something?

 

Im selling my Fiero, it has a 3800SC engine behind it, pushing over 350hp. The only thing is I blew the trans a week ago.

You can see a small pic of it in my avatar.

 

240 sx not a bad idea.... ill look into it a lil bit

 

Yep, 240sx's are perfect, they're cheap, and you can do pretty much anything to them.

 

so teh 2.4L engine in the 96 model has the potential to beat the mustang. thats rpetty rad. the main reason for me doi ngthis build is because he keeps runing his mouth about how ____ty imports are and how his mustang is so fast. well ill build one up for lesss than he spent on his stang and take him to the track and smack him silly

 

Man, I hate rednecks thinkin that muscle cars are the best in the world and always talkin down to Japanese beauty when all kinds of V8's are getting smashed on by 4 bangers.

 

shouldnt this be in offtopic

 

most guys that drive v8 have to compensate for what they are lacking they have to have this ramboling v8 with all this torque and their ___ bucket seats and soft suspention. i like tuners because they are stealthy smooth and can do more than just the 1/4 mile. not to mention v8 do make alot more power in the NA set up but they also take fore ever to rev up that high my xA is in second before he gets outta first and his redline is 5.4K. so what ever works for him i guess.... but i think im going to do the 240 sx and might do an engine swap well see but ill keep you guys posted as thing progress.

 

turbo'd 240....take him to a road course and never look back.

 

My vote's for a VW Dune Buggy. Fiberglass body makes it hella light. Get yourself a turbo'd motor built for it and you're good to go.

 

that not exactly what i call a tuner let alone a car...... good idea though

 

Tell him to drive/trailor his happy A** down to SO FLa, i'll show him how fast a slow import really is!

no its cool hes a life long friend of mine and we have always dissagreed on what is better so he finally got his mustang and it shoudl be done in a few months so im going to buy a 240 sx and throw about 5 grand into it and well have a good old fashion drag/drift/autox/and track day well see who wins. and yes were going to a track, so people stop pming me with you better nto street race hate mail! thank you

 

Why are people pm'ing you about street racing in the first place? The only problem I got about street racing is immature kids racing on impulse down a city street or a crowded freeway.
