Which car should i get?

So ive been saving up my money and ive been wondering which car i should get.

1.) Mitsubishi Starion ESi-R/Chrysler Conquest TSi

2.) EARLY (84-87) Nissan 300ZX Turbo

The Starion is easy to mod, built well, but it has Throttle Body injection, so its performance is severly limited after a certain number of mods. Not to mention a Multiport Upgrade costs like $2900, plus the time and hassle to install it. The plus side, G54BT comes with forged pistons, and a forged and Nitride treated crank. The motors run forever.

The Z (which ive been leaning more towards) Already has multiport, and from what ive been reading, the Vq30et will certainly outlast the g54b, not to mention more displacement and a bigger turbo stock.

Not to mention the Z already has a decent (not great, but decent) aftermarket, whereas the starion has very little, and any mods you buy you have to shell out a damn good buck for.

Im just curious what you guys think.

Starion + 4g63 + 20g turbo ftw

3

bleh, 4g63 swap is too much of a hassle, and you thought DSM’s were buggy?

4

what are you looking for as an end result? streetcar, racecar?

5

whats your hp goals with the car?

6

looking high threes, low fours in the HP range. Its not gonna be done right away, if im gonna put this much time and this much effort into building a car, its gonna take some time

My goals would be a respectable street and strip car that would be able to hold its own.

12s, 13s, - low/high? just throwing that question out, too…

good research on old-school turbo stuff. what about 3g supras?

8

ftw

you should do that swap in your s10,
btw I say the starion idea :tup:

10

not a fan of supras really, its either a starion, or a zed. BTW, i have about $2500 which will get me either a damn nice starion, or a decently clean zed.

and ill be shootin for low 13’s, high 12’s

11

conquest/starion :tup:

12

Fbod lol. Id go with the conquest. I’ve been in a few nice ones, they are pretty badass.

13

including justins, eh josh? :slight_smile:

pretty funny that up until your post, I was thinking the 3rd gen supra instead of the 300z. then when you said that, I was like " wtf, read the thread". Then i went back up and read it and kicked my own taint.

3rd gen supra > Starion > 300zx.
