ya i was gonna get a crx hf, strip it to all hell, swap in a zc that was posted and had rods/pistons, run a t4 with equal length mani and run it till the engine popped. hell at one point we were gonna fill the waterjacket with hardblok but then i would need a trailer to cart it around. i would have but my truck is lame for towing. that would have been in the 13s easily and knocking on 12s.

well i had a car and decided ---- it its too fun to drive in the corners and quarter mile is no fun on a budget. so i got another car in better condition and got rid of the other pile. i would rather have a car that looks nice and can whip on 90% of the stuff out here. (looks nice as in clean, 17s, and lowered 1" on springs, no rust, no rice)

i will beat the other 10% later with some more boost and displacement.

what were you going to do with fuel?

that crx would be pretty fast i'm sure. like in the 12s easy. but not without slicks and tranny stuff. you would prob break everrything. but thats how it goes when you push the limit

with all that ---- you would be runnin fast. but don't kid yourself there are a ton of street cars that will run 11s and maybe into the 10s.

dude i just had a thought! s2ks are what about 30k?
YOU COULD GET A SVT MUSTANG FOR 30k!!!!!!!

dude seriously do that svt mustangs are pimp, they're the same price and that mustang would eat that s2000 alive. yummy

ya i know theres a million cars that can do that but they dont beat a corvette for $5k, the whole purpose was to be that fast for under 5 grand including buying the car. but the bet was lame, and i didnt feel like finishing it. fuel was gonna be big *** injectors with afc and free dyno tyme at a friend of a friends shop

buy an old VW with a good engine in it. and throw a bunch of nitrious at it. bet won. with money to spare.

but a old novaII with a 305 in it. throw 200 shot of nitrious on it. bet won with money to spare.

but i guess if you wanted import a crx would be the best way.

the easiest way i can see is it swap a b18 in it, turbocharge stock internals and see what it runs.

For 30k I'd rather build a factory 5 cobra, or get a supra TT and play with that.

I like the SVT cobra mustang... I had a chance to buy a "purple" 92 cobra for 3k.. very nice, but someone else got it before I could really decide. But seriously though, every other car around here is a mustang. Most people are tired of rice, but I'm tired of hearing "it's got a v8" and most of the time they stretch the V out so it's like V......e..e.e..e 8.

once I get out of school I have plans to build a mustang twin turbo setup... nobody has that here.

svt really kicked *** on that new mustang. i gotta give them props for that, although i think they dissapointed ppl before with false hp ratings and thats why no one likes them (maybe). i have ridden in a sweet 97 gt, it was lowered side exhaust w/tons of bolt ons and a little juice. it was damn fast, i would drive it.

oh and the bet was i couldnt do it with an import b/c they are too expensive to build.
