if I somehow managed to intake the perfect mix of a whole host of powerful psychedelic drugs and stumble off into the wilderness in winter to become lost… pass out due to hypothermia only to be awoken by a pack of wolves with AIDS hungrily running towards me… only at the last second to have a park ranger pull up and blast the wolves dead and offer me a ride home, he opens the back door and 3 bikini models wearing shirts that say “I want to fuck Darkstar” with electric blankets get out, with 5lbs of the stinkiest chronic you’ve ever smelled, and a winning lottery ticket with my name on it…

If their only demand was that I had to purchase and drive any one of the above automobiles, I’d go for the ranger’s gun and shoot myself in the fucking face.

Why I’m sure atleast 45 mph will be enough to kill yourself. You shouldn’t need to go much faster.

well dont fix it with cheap parts… you get what you pay for, thats why it keeps getting “shittier”.  
out of the list your best bet would be to get a 240, but good luck finding a decent one considering your cheap, and tossing an SR20 in it. and also considering that you cheap out on parts to keep your current car running then an SR20 will never happen.

I’ll sell you the peon for $3500 ( mid-low 14sec car with practice ) best I did was a 14.9 the other day, first time out in 2 years with a new setup

is that seriously your list of “Project cars”? Why not throw a yugo or pontiac aztec in there to make the list a little more respectable?

Fox Body Mustang with a 5.0 and never look back.

Kind of quick out of the box, huge aftermarket (everything from cheap to unreasonably expensive), RWD, easy to work on. What more could you want?

I hope this isn’t a reference to someone on this site who would rather roll fenders than get different springsd?
