if your going to get a dsm i would go with one of the earlier years that came with the 6 bolt cause they are basically bullet proof

I'm still in highschool and my car does 13.9 on street tires...but that's an N/A 8cyl car...definately not somethign to be discussed on HMT.

I'd say get a 1g manual talon or something...as long as it's the turbo version. If not that get a civic for cheap and swap / boost...do whatever.

There's always going to be somebody faster than you.

I'm gonna have to say, jump on the HMT bandwagon and get a civic. JK about the bandwagon, but anyways get a civic and do a home made kit for it. You'll learn so much more about cars and have more fun knowing you were the one that made it fast. Just spend plenty of time learning how to do it and it'll be easy.
