time to say good bye to the talon

[amicheze]

i suppose this is way out of the question.. but ever thought of like a 96 or so buick? with the supercharged 3.8l v6 they come with about 240hp and 280tq. plus theyre some of the most comfortable cars ive been in. probably not enough to beat a gsx but id imagine it would keep up fairly well. maybe even come close if not beat it from a roll.

just a thought.

Not bad mileage either.

1. 25 hwy and 17 city for the mileage

2. I think they run around high 13s low 14s on street radials plenty enough to beat up on some DSMs.

that car is also an automatic...

in response to amicheze you can get a 99 grand prix gtp for 10k...it prolly wouldnt be too hard to find a regal gs(same car but more luxury) for the same price...they run low 15s but 14s can easily be achieve with like about $100 or so

[Pony_Racer]

are you looking to buy a stock car that can beat a GSX? if not there are plenty of deals of cars out there that will beat a GSX for like 3-4k....might be mustangs lol but i dont doubt there are others

[Jim]

don't suggest mustangs, he can't afford to keep up his dsm, how can he afford to keep up a mustang?!?

Ouch!! Play nice now.

Seriously you're aren't going to find much in the neighborhood of $10k with good gas mileage and the ability to keep up with an AWD DSM. I was going to suggest a 94+ GT but gas mileage isn't that great as well.

Tuftes red civic hatch disagrees.

[bluejays]

what do you guys think of a 99 integra gs with 32000 miles?

[Jim]

How much?

[bluejays]

9950

[Guest]

look on honda-tech at the cars that are forsale. then there most likey to be already sawped. but if u want to do it urself just buy a hatch and a k20 and that will beat the pants of a dsm

[bluejays]

also how fast are they stock, and how easy is it to get them into say 13s or 14s? boost is an option, but i'm looking for cost effective right now.

[Jim]

what's the saying?

pick two of the three:

fast, reliable, cheap

Good looking car, but no way on earth it will even be in the same zip code as an AWD DSM speed wise. How bout a 2001 with a real motor for just a .......fraction more.

[bluejays]

problem is i'm stretching the fraction more now by going for 10,000. maybe if i get 3,000 for my talon. then maybe.

[bluejays]

i found out it is an auto. damnit oh well.

[91nbtsi]

How about a 2000 integra LS....perfect condition.

As much as I hate to say it, Spoolude has a point.
Simple Equation:
Rolling Hatch shell + K20 + Juice <10 g's
W/o nitrous, k20 in a hatch spanked supra! Video somewhere on the net.

how much did he have to invest into that k20 to be able to beat the supra though?

[PSiedTSi]

read it again...he said less than <10k with nitrous...and this was without nitrous...think about it

[bluejays]

i found a 95 cobra mustang for 10,000.
