Best Jap performance car? Under 10k.


Recommended Posts

I would go for an Evo 6 or 7. If you are looking for something that costs less in maintenance I would go for an Integra DC5 (gorgeous cars fom inside and out) but wont be as fast as an Evo or P1.

Rather get a blob-eye STi than a P1

Can still only go 70mph maximum, bet there aren't many places where you can try to match 0 - 60 in 3.8 seconds.

 

Tracks don't have speed limits and I'm guessing the OP isn't interested in a discussion about speed limits.

 

To the OP, I have a 94 RX7 and love it but wouldn't recommend as a daily driver if you need it every day :)

I went to see a EP3 civic type r today and was really surprised at the lack of torque and power it had at the lower rev range, you really have to give it some to get it going so i dont think a non turbo car is for me. Skyline's are a bit too big for my liking, iv seen a R34 and they are huge! Im looking at a evo6 right now or 03/04 plate WRX STi as i do use my back seats often.

You can't beat sound of a Subaru...that flat 4 engine with unequal manifold that it comes with... sounds fantastic. Burble, burble,burble. I'm a Scooby man myself.....but if you are into modding go with the EVO. Too many modded Scoobys seem to have engine fires...don't know if it's owt to do with the top mounted intercooler as opposed to the front one on the EVO.
