what would be a good car to supe up under 10,000$$$

get a used car like a 240sx, prelude, impreza, or even a old mitsubishi eclipse

golfs, jettas, and neons aren't bad either

1/4 drag = LT1 F-body (cam job, heads, rear end, exhaust :D )
Lot of people like the 3000gts, not even the VR4s, the 222DOHC.
OR just buy a car that already has high HP and is "suped" up from the factory.

You actually dont need to soup yup anything, just get a nice superbike, R6 i think is one of the best ones out there? Im not too good on my superbike knowledge.

get a used car like a 240sxYes, go with the 240sx.

Just stay away from Front Wheel Drive cars and you should be fine. You can honestly only put so much power behind um. What I would do is steal a Supra Twin Turbo and then spend your 10,000 on a new turbo's, headers, exhaust, intakes, the whole shabang. Escaping the law is up to you :twisted: I never think too far in the future...

240sx all the way

honda civic

300zx rules

All the way, man!

I saw a nice orange TT 300zx on Tuesday. I heard the turbos and the blow off valves
Beautiful :twisted:

Mitsubishi GTO or 3000GT, get one for £5000 and the rest is yours!

I say porsche 944 turbo.

My friend juts bought a 944, whats it like, any pics?

Theyre good cars for there age, no road tax on the older models 8) Also, apart from the insurance factor, I would consider one as a first car, check out the website, this is one beautifully modified 944 IMO: http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/575544

That is actually quite smart! I've had a Ford Puma, Focus ST170 and now I've got a Focus Zetec TDCi. All were great, except the ST which has too long a gear ratio's and is not very reliable. And the insurance was a pain in the A$$!

A good quality used Metro 6R4 will set you back about £3500 so that's $6265. Burns oil, eats clutches but the madest Metro ever!! And with the money you've got left you can tidy up the engine by fitting a big catalytic convertor and a nice set of goodyears for the wheels.

Enjoy some pics!:

And don't worry about modifying it, you'll find it is plent fast enough... 8)

Yeah, thats for sure!! One of these left tyre tracks on the road with no effort at all, so imaging what revving the engine and dropping the clutch quickly can do!!

300ZX is nice, MkIII supra is nice, porsche 944 too.. 240SX would be pretty nice, you'd have plenty of $$ left over.. the t-top MR2... there are lots :wink:

"get a used car like a 240sx" Yes i agree cuz i have one but go for a 93 cheap and sweet me on the other hand have a 97....way more then.....10,000....one owner but with the mod's u can do with a two fourty.....astounding!!!!!!! Thats my two cents on this subject.

I dunno why you posted this in the Racing section but anyway, I'd recommend you get either a 240SX or an S13 Silvia.

agreed

go for the the ferrari look alike Toyota MR2 :D

this is true....forgot about the MR2

What about Renault 5 Turbo :?:

Jacol

Rear brake cylinder leaked.
central locking dont work.

Leaking fuel tank
new starter motor

but perhaps i hade some bad luck with the car :wink:

sometimes luck has something to do with or it could have been someone messin with ur car.....at like night or something if not that...then ya.....it was pretty messed up car...

Honda

said it once goin to say it again....''SCREW HONDA'S!!''

said it once goin to say it again....''SCREW HONDA'S!!''
wow, easy now, i meant the renault 5 twin turbo

If you get a 300ZX, don't get the turbo'd models, they had, factory problem, a major heat problem that caused a very large number of the turbo'd models engines to simply seize up and die after like, 3000 miles. Now if you do get one make sure you upgrade bigtime with the cooling systems.

But, Porsche 944Turbo all the way, orrrr...if you've actually got taste and class, get a 968 GT, those will do a 168 mph bone stock...Good luck insuring it!

Im gonna get my head ripped off by a mod 4 this but please dude shut the **** up with the stupid ****ing im a rice boy but i hate hondas so its ok crap dude PLEASE SHUT UP

don't know if u guys agree with me..but i say impreza 2.5 rs...nice looking car..decent power...and plentiful of performance/ appearance upgrades..

good car to tune is the BMW 3 series. they may not look nice but they can take alotta engine stress. but fro 10k you would have to look at the older ones.

go for the the ferrari look alike Toyota MR2 :D

why do people think the mr2 looks like a ferrari
