Jeb Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Right, ive been trying to decide for ages now ... If you had £6000 and wanted something rapid and rear wheel drive what would you get? and why. Ive been browsing piston heads for a few day's and havn't really found anything i like help
Gonzo Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 £6k for a rapid RWD something... Probably something like an import Toyota Soarer or an RX-7 with a 3-rotor 20B turbo engine swap.
Jeb Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Posted May 31, 2008 No osf's it's a daily hack so fairly modernish
Gonzo Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 More imported Jap stuff in the way of a 1992-ish S13 Silvia or maybe a 200sx? Mk3 Supra turbos go quite well. Again with the RX-7... The NA ones are still pretty damn rapid, and I imagine if you junk the fuel injection, bolt a supercharger on it sucking through a Holley 4-barrel or even a Weber 50 it'd really shift!
Gonzo Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 This is rather nice... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Black-Nissan-Silv ... dZViewItem
surfingturnip Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 thats rather tasty. I'd agree on the jap import front, plenty are still good and cheap and they're still uber fun to drive as well
antz Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 volvo 740 turbo. doesnt rust, runs forever, fast, rwd, saves you £5700 to spend on other shit
Gonzo Posted June 1, 2008 Report Posted June 1, 2008 One's german and gay, the other's japanese and gay.
Jeb Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Posted June 2, 2008 I can't make my mind up Classic ford show didn't help either i want a mk1 2 door with a rapid engine

mossy Posted June 2, 2008 Report Posted June 2, 2008 What's the minimuim i could build a cossy powered mk1 escort? Say i got a solid shell for about £2000 how much will it roughly cost to get it cossied... £2k! where you looking! Will cost about that to get it up and going... £2k for cossy engine and box £600 brakes £500 suspension and the rest buying the car!
5hane Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 So it will be achievable within around 6k maby if you get a cheap super wagon
MightySprocket Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 cossie saff, get a nice really one for £6000
SmokeEm Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 E30 325i for me - mint one for 1-1.5k & it'll go on forever n ever. Spend the change on your OSF - If that mk2 tina in your sig is yours it must be crying out for a screaming Harris/Elvy/Ashton lump
geoffersmasher Posted June 3, 2008 Report Posted June 3, 2008 didnt you have problems getting that cortina insured thats why you sold it ????? if so i guess these cars are gonna cost even more
Jeb Posted June 3, 2008 Author Report Posted June 3, 2008 It was too old for my insurance company to insure
