Well I would have to say an Nissan Skyline R34 GTR. But you cant get that here sooo... I think I would get a Subaru WRX and buy the STI headlight and bumper conversion. Plus its turbocharged and pretty quick
Later, Nick BTW none of these cars are really RICE but i know what ya meant

RX7 turbo, 300ZX turbo, Supra turbo or even a project like Inferno is working on.. an old crx, what a sleeper that would be My top choice would have to be a Supra, I fell in love with that car in 89 and the mid 90s models, with the turbo, are just plain bad.. too bad they cost $45k+.

Yea i ment import ya know. there is a difference between the 2. I would probably go with what u guys said. A friend of mine is planning on getting a twin turbo supra when we are old enough to get cars(which is in about a year). I know hes defiantly going to be a match for me if i got a 87-90 gt. But i know cars and especially mustangs very well for my age. I think i could beat him in a street race. What do you all think"?

Stock for stock, it would be a really close race. But i doubt you'd leave the GT stock.
Nick- Ever hear of a company called MotoRex? They've been importing Skylines for about five years. Based in Torrance, that's where they came up with the R33 in the F&F. You can get an R34 for about 75k. That's what I'd do if I was getting a Saki bomb.

Hate to be the barer of reality, but a twin turbo Mk IV Supra will annihilate a Fox Mustang 5.0. Even with a small supercharger, the 5.0 would still be in for a run. That and the Supra can very quickly be made into a mid 12 car at over 110mph for cheap.
Bone stock, the Supra is good for a low 13@106ish. LS1's are not unfamiliar with the back end of those Toyota's. Now if you're talking a street race, who knows what the end will look like. I suppose it's possible you could get a freaky Fox like mine, but normally don't expect better than a low/mid 14 stock with good driving. If I was going to buy an Japanese import, it would be a 300ZX TT or a WRX. Too get a nearly 4000lb Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 to spin all 4 wheels would take a hell of a launch, and a lot more power. Then it takes a lot of praying that the driveline doesn't blow. It's not exactly the strongest setup in the world. |
