Turbo Car on Carsales
Check this beast out - he has a K&N sticker on the bonnet... Must have at least 300hp... This is a bargain - an could be boosted way more than what it has... Depends on what you want to do I guess...

s13/s14 ... just try and find one that hasnt been raped... youll spend more money in the long run buying one thats stock, but its less likely to have rammed tyre walls at winton.
the best place to buy a silvia is at nissansilvia.com/forums ... not here. if you have any queries about the silvias at all, im happy to help. i owned a sr20det manual onevia for 5 years prior to my xr8. cheers.

Really? I would have thought that they too would have been given a hard time considering most the guys on there are into drift.

ive been an NS member for 6 years... i never took my sil to the track, never did street drifting or burnouts. i just loved the car and drove it. it was in extremely good condition, well maintained and had quality parts on it. theres quite a few "Good examples" on NS from time to time. but they dont last long, and obviously become harder to come across each year.

Maybe we hung around the wrong crowd ..A mate of mine has been a member over there for a few years-he owned a 'sprakley orange' s13, they can take a fair bit of punishment..... But I agree an SR20 s13 would suit the OP....

I thought about skyline but they are as common as chips too :P but it might be what I do to stay cheap or a Silvia even 180sx

Get a normal car, people who come asking for a cheap turbo car are just in for trouble... Get a nice decent relaible car, and a sigma turbo or some other garbage box and put it in the garage so you can have a turbo car to impress people with

id happily suggest an sr20 to anyone as an every day car... its spanned nearly 15 years in 15 different models. But then again, i guess you already knew all the garbage rice facts before blowing your trumpet.

Far out, my proven AU Turbo with LPG and engineered is for sale at $5k. Its registered and can be driven away with plenty of spare bits included. I have spent $17,000 it has 308rwhp. Find something with that power for the same money.

Well its a Ford forum, so its hard to recommend something other than a Ford. XR6T will easily achieve that figure.
But in saying that, so will decent amount of other Fords.... |
