back to the b20 in a lude w/ a vtec head or turbo, or both...
these motors have more tq than a new si does... and thats just stock b20...

the vtec head on the b20 made 111tq@ 2500 rpm... that is a tonna tq for a little motor... and he was not tuned well when he did it...

the turbo on a b20 is good for 178 to the wheels... and low 14 sec passes...

the other thing you could do is get that del sol and work backwards, putting the b20 block under the b16 head.. same thing, but kinda in reverse... it becomes one helluva tq monster and alot of hp, seeing as how it would be a 2 liter vtec motor...
and, if you get the toda vtec killer cams, you are on vtec lobe all the time, and you can spin the revs to 12k...
or get a vtec controller, and move the vtec crossover to 3k rpm...

so you can make low and mid range with that combo...

something light and rwd... we don't need no stinkin' torque steer...

1st gen mr2? would also be a great autox car... or for 15k, you could get a 2nd gen mr2 turbo and, with some suspension (adjustable struts, springs, sway bars, strut tower braces) and power upgrades (boost control, breather mods), be flying around the track in no time.

how is the legroom in a first gen rx-7? that's another good small car you can toss around.

I was thinking 2nd gen rx7.....coz i heard something like it shared the engine with the 3rd gen......i dunno, they just look better too, and arent as old.

2nd gen mr2s are dead sexy, i want one

Nismo Drifts where are you from? Wanted to know where this track is being built?

Also as far as a car I think I have the perfect thing but it involves 2 things which are iffy:
1.Are you realllll good with tools, have a garage and a real good supply of tools?
2. Do you need this car year round?

its sposed to be built in Va....... probably wont, i live reaaaal close to there though, so if they do i wanna get into it, and if not i could go up to richmond.

yeah, i have tools at my place and my grandpa has everything id ever need pretty much, his garage is pretty crazy. Hes an import guy though.... but he could help regardless.

and yeah, i need it year round unless i can get it super cheap

I would think you could go with a Civic hatchback, a CX for the weight savings. Then drop in a B18C5 if you can find one and of course tune the suspension as much as you can. If you want to go with a RWD car then I would look for an RX-7.

91 Sentra SE: 500$

That leaves you 9,500 for tuning
