Here's my four choices, and I was wondering which you guys thought was the best
As a precursor, I don't care about reliability, I don't care about practicality
1. Lexus IS300 with a 2JZ-GTE swap.
2. Honda S2000, a cheap one with money for mods like that spoon hardtop
3. Mazda FD RX-7 TT.
4. Integra Type-R with room for loads of mods, ecu, adjustable suspension etc.
Which would you buy, and why?

Probably a C5 Z06, maybe a 2008-2010 135i with the based twin-turbo N54.
literbike
buy a civic and shut the fuck up
Anything but the ITR because FWD a shit and it'll get stolen by spics.
The FD is objectively best
Forgot to mention, yes I am prepared for the rotard lyfe
16,000 dollar civic must be pretty nice
and that integra is like one step away from a civic anyway
ITR is FWD and oversteers, okay in my book
And I live in a neighborhood that has a census confirmed 0 spics and literally 1 nigger only
god bless white suburbs
Why not try an american car. Or is it too roomy because your third leg feels like a golfball inside a bucket when sitting in our true god like seats.
FD's are that cheap? Of those choices, I like AP1 S2k.
I'd do the 2JZ swapped IS, and pray it has the V160/1 6 speed
Yeah, but they have to have like 100k miles, but as long as the engine's had a rebuilt it should be good.
boston.craigslist.org
Not the best RX7, but the best one on craigslist right now. I wouldn't buy it though.
chambersburg.craigslist.org
It does
I would buy that IS, and it's not too far away
How do you know where I live
E46 330/m3, e39 540/m5
Absolutely the s2000. It's fun and will basically never depreciate.
I considered the E39, but even though that facelift front fascia makes me cum buckets, compared to these it looks a bit pedestrian.
I don't like the stigma with E46s either, since if I ever hoon, I would be that asshole in the bimmer
The others won't depreciate either, some are appreciating atm. And they're all "fun".
Persuade me.
I've owned an Integra Type-R. Ownership being worth it or not depends on several key factors:
1) Do you live in the US? If no...then purchase, if yes, go to 2.
2) Do you live in the suburbs or the city?
3) Do you live in a house or an apartment complex?
4) Does your place of residence have a garage?
5) If no garage, how close is your bedroom window to the street where you will be parking it?
6) What anti-theft devices will you deploy?
7) How fast can you run?
8) Are you a big guy?
Seriously, unless you have a garage and you don't plan on driving it everywhere, then this is not the car for you. It will be stolen faster than you can say 'VTAAAAK, bruh'. Fucking faggots still hunt for these with no fucks given so they can absolutely butcher them so their sweet mad tight 'illest' shit-assed EG can have a real five-lug conversion and a B18C5.
The night I sold mine, I slept like a baby for the first time in years.
>thinking thieves shit where they eat
top kek
>the year of our Lord 2000+16
>not being a glorious 1337 haxxorz
It'll be kept in a garage, suburbs, house, I can run pretty fast, 6'3" (is it tall people friendly? I hate bumping my knees on the wheel of cars.)
And I've left my bicycle unchained outside in my driveway every night for a year or so and it hasn't been stolen yet, so.
I haven't seen a minority months. (besides my landscapers, no that wasn't a joke)
FD how is this even a question
1. New rice
2. Spoon hardtop looks like ballsack
3. Drop the TT in the name faggot, all FDs are TT.
4. Old rice.
My pick would be FD because I had an FC that I loved and sold it like the dumbfuck I am.
because that 2j lexus is pretty fucking nice, and that mod list is worth more than the car itself
And with mods, that ITR will be the fastest around a track of all
S2000 is just the safest bet of all of them, a reverse wildcard
I'm clarifying to euro and jap fags that have pre 93 NA RX-7s that might not know US only had turbo
An Rx7 is the least responsible choice but you'll never forget how cool it was when you're an old man, and always slightly regret not having one
>that mod list is worth more than the car itself
>buying someone else's project
cuck
Dude no, 330i is no comparison to an m3. like not even close.
Pretty good point.
Oh and that spoon hardtop reminds me of a Z4 M Coupe, which gets my dick harder than all of these but so much money
Believe me, if I could 2JZ-GTE swap an IS300 for 16k total myself, I would, I love the gratification of completing a project. But it just doesn't make sense, I wouldn't get back even half of what I put in.
No. US had both if you're talking FC.
There are 92 FD's. All twin turbo.
Why are you worried about your image?They're good cars and anyone that judges you doesn't know what they're missing. You're gonna look like an asshole in all of these unless the is300 is stock on the outside.
Yes, but the US didn't get FD's until 1993.
The 91 and 92 FD weren't available in the US, but they didn't have the sequential TT system. I thought they didn't have turbos at all, but I just found out they just had a traditional turbo setup.
My first car was a Miata. I loved it, but I got so much shit for it I saw it as a tax of ownership, and a serious downside. Doesn't make it any worse of a car though.
*The 91 and 92 FD's
>but they didn't have the sequential TT system.
Who the hell told you that bullshit
a cheap S2K? LOL agood luck trying to FIND a FD that hasnt been molested by fag racer.
dont matter where you live honda civics/integras get stolen. the best day is when you sell it.
if i must pick one lexus is200/toyota altezza. yes its the 3SGTE with i-beams then change it to how i want.. if i wanted a supra engine id buy the car around it
...
w-wikipedia
There are several sub 12k S2000s in my area
3S-GE tuned by TRD is best 3S-G engine
>that 9,000 rpm howling redline
Here's FD by the way: boston.craigslist.org
The Lexus. I have a IS and can't wait to get it turboed it's a really fun car. Reliable as well.
>1991 FD
Impossibru
>1992 FD
Not in the US
The introduction of the FD3S included the 13B-REW which was developed specifically with the sequential turbo setup in mind.
The single turbo died with the FC3S. The first FD was made in December 1991, so the 1992 MY is just easier to say instead of explaining the first 975 models that were technically 1991s.
>The 91 and 92 FD weren't available in the US, but they didn't have the sequential TT system
Are you that guy who lives in a gated community where your neighbour put a lien on someone's house because their kid left a pizza box on their lawn?
you should be able to get an ls300 witha gte for half that, and I would personally go with the rx-7 for muh brap
>technically 1991s
Youre not smart are you?
>they didn't have the sequential TT system
Neither are you.
No
They're really expensive now, I can't
How do you know I don't
>How do you know I don't
Umm. What
Collectable factor aside there's nothing that makes the Integra Type R that special. You can build a 1990s Civic to do 90% of what one is capable of for $5000 and you can get a Fiesta ST for the same amount which will be a nearly new car if not a new car.
Get the FD RX7 or a R32 GTR from Canada. You don't care about reliability right? Maybe a C5 Z06.
>>they didn't have the sequential TT system
>Neither are you
I interpreted this as you meaning to say "Neither do you"
>>technically 1991s
>Youre not smart are you
Smarter than you apparently. Japan uses month & date for their car titles, which is why you can't import a car from there to the US until it hits 25 years to the month of manufacture. So yes, there are 12/1991 Efini RX7s.
FD hands down
>FD RX-7
>Aluminum radiator with ducting
>Aluminum air separator tank
>Aluminum intercooler, maybe V mount
>$10 harbor freight oil separator
>All hoses replaced with silicone
>OMP delete and premix, full synthetic oil
>Single EFR turbo conversion w/ stainless manifold
>Standalone ECU, E85 tune if it's available in your area
>Maybe an extractor hood
You now have an FD that's good for 150,000+ miles between rebuilds and has no other major weak points.
Thats not a model year you mong. Its a production date.
Fucking idiot
E85 is poop in rotaries
98ron+water injection is god mode
>no other major weak points
LITERALLY BURNS OIL AND SPITS APEX SEALS
Wouldn't E85 cause more wear on the fuel system? Better for the rotors and apex seals probably, since it's like 100+ octane equivalent, no?
Stop fighting in my thread, go to your rooms now
id get the is300. you could also get a skyline gtst or evo 8
Burns less oil than modern Hondas and doesn't eat itself 6 miles from a dealership like a corvette
Anything else?
>chambersburg.craigslist.org
go buy that op. niggas want 5k+ for that trans
>GTS-T
Or even a GTR if I get lucky as fuck or import it myself, but I don't want a RHD car.
>Evo 8
I guess. Not better than an IS in any way besides AWD though
Evo 8 is a performance vehicle
2jzgte Lexus is just a wheel spinning grandpa sedan
>Evo 8 is a performance vehicle
Kek. Its a hopped up shitbox at best
>wheel spinning grandpa sedan
that sounds fun
He lowered the price a day ago or so, and it's been up for 20 days so maybe somethings wrong with it. I'll check the VIN
I love when peolle think an evo is anything like a normal lancer
It means I can disregard any further things they have to say bevause they are retarded
It literally says lancer on the gauges.
Kek. Stay delusional though
They aren't a lancer except in name.
Methanol fuel with water injection is god mode. E85 comes from a pump, though.
It won't burn motor oil, that's the point of deleting the OMP.
You might want to change out the injectors and pump and filter, but that's not a bad idea anyway on a 25 year old car. The fuel lines and tank will be fine.
It's nothing like a Lancer. It's a Mirage.
A lancer from last century is faster than anything Toyota has made in its entire history as a manufacturer so lol okay
>add body kit and terrible engine with terrible awd
HURR DURR ITS NOT A HOPPED UP SHITBOX
>as a result be the fastest car ever in wtac several years running
Bbbut muh 1600kg can't turn supra!!!
Never once mentioned toyota. Your delusions are really getting to you
>muh rallie herutige
And toyota came second overall in lemans, doesn't mean your camry will beat anything in a race
>kg
Oh youre europoor.
Ok you dont know any better than shitboxes with turbos
>Butt mad Toyota cuck going into denial mode
Roflmao
I work for nasa actually
RX-7, embrace the dorito and never look back my man.
ah yes the "i live in a neighborhood without minorities so i think im safe" meme
its a good meme t b h
i didnt see the ad for the is before, thought you were gonna do the gte swap yourself
t. urban ghetto inhabitant making himself feel better about his keyed civic
WTAC is "900+ WHP through 265 width street tires: the series." It's no surprise that the lightest AWD cars with the most tuneable engines take the trophy every year. RWD cars aren't allowed to run the tires they need to in order to be competitive. That's why Under Suzuki's S15 is so fucking insane.
nah, not worth it, as I went over in
oh, and is the V160 really that much better than the R154?
Sc300 with 1jz swap?
Ehh little too ricey looking
i live in a middles class connecticut suburb that is diverse
little to no crime.
oh and I own an FC Rx7 btw.
Then you would know it isn't entirely a meme.
I used to live in a white suburb that was surrounded by minority areas, and my house got broken into 3 times, all of them got caught after the first one because I installed cameras.
Once they tried while I was home, luckily I was still awake.
But now nothing happens at all.
And cops are up and down my street a few times a day, I would assume wasting time
Yeah it is but only because the V160 is a complete monster. An R154 can handle plenty of power too, along with a few other more similar transmissions but I don't remember exactly which ones.
pretty sure this one doesn't have a 13b thou. looks like a 6 cylinder swap
