What is your definition of "fast"?

well fast being i can spin the wheels off the line without dropping the clucth..... im pretty sure i could accomplish that with any of those cars u listed...... but those all seem to be less on reliability which is why i want to know more about cars that are capable of this.

I can't imagine buying those cars above..... so it's obvious what you need to do, take the 8 grand buy a crap car to drive for a few weeks while the S13 you just bought is in the shop getting a SR put in it <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

can i find a 200 dollar car? lol and put 2000 into a s-13 then.... get a complete sr swap done for 5800?

He said a car for $8,000 thats alittle over that unfortunatly <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

Well since you can't live with only 2 seats (i think you should try it has it's quirk's <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> ) The only car thats coming to mind is a 2+2 300ZX thats pushing your $8,000 limit but do able.

yah but most likely i wont be able to get a 95 + for that price without 150,000 miles on it.

BlankFlip

honestly though, there isn't much better for that price range, the 240SX is perfect. if u didn't have a 240SX n brought that question up, i would tell u to look for a 240SX. or maybe sell ur s14, get a cheaper s13 n drop the sr in there.

yah but...... its soooooo slow and i want something thats fast outta the box...... i was thinking an old 3000 gt vr-4 but too many problems.... with those

BlankFlip

import or domestic? 2 door or 4 door? n/a or turbo? what r ur preferences?

You sound like my sister looking for a car. &nbsp;If you want something fast out of the box for 8K and it is 95+ then you will be looking for a long time. &nbsp;Not to mension that you won't get a high mileage car (which is smart).

They have a saying in sales: &nbsp;Price, Time, and Quality. &nbsp;Pick 2.

Your either going to have to lower your standards, pay more, or wait a #### of a long time to find something.

hmmm maybe a 93 s - 13 and a xs kit or something.... would that work? do they have a kit for the 93 ka?

transient

Yeah, they do. I've heard better things about the Nsport though...

i am looking at a 91 MR2 turbo for $5500

konkman

I saw one yesterday, I bet the owner was looking to sell. &nbsp;The must have rear ending someone really nicely, because the whole front bumper was ripped of his car. &nbsp;I bet he caught the boost in the rain we have been having.

i need somethin reliable... 2 or 4 doors doesnt really matter but now im pondering waiting till i get a real job and financing a new 350z.... grrrrr too many #### decisions.

n e suggestions?

rubbersidedown

you want to find a car that is '95+, low mileage, dependable, more than two seats, and fast out of the box for $8k? would you like fries w/ that? The only place you'll ever find a car like that is in your dreams. haha tell us if you ever find one though.

i'll let u know i mean it can be like a 92-94 also but has to be decent mileage ya kno?

misnomer

why don't you sink that into turboing or sring or caing your s14?

konkman

Yeah, forget that idea of an SR swap, install an Nsport turbo kit.

If you don't like you current car's condition, invest some time, find a granny driven 240 and do her up to the tits.

The car, not the granny.

If you really want to get a good deal, check the junkyards. &nbsp;Even if they don't have a fast car (Supra or whatever) with minimal damage you can fix, they're bound to have a kick ass engine is something you can pick up cheap. &nbsp;Then just throw it in and make it work.

im selling my s-14....... then using that money to buy another car.... something FAST.
