    Sadly, any honda coupe. Cheapest way to make reliable, fast, ugly cars. I'd stay away from DSM's, they have had a long history of problems. 240's are another good car to build, but if you do stick with the k series motor, don't join the bandwagon and get a sr20 like everyone else. 300's are nice, but finding parts for them are a little harder than most cars.

    I just saw in Sport Cpmpact Car a 240sx with a VQ35 swap. Looked like it could be fun, plus it should be easy to build the hell outta.
    Can everyone say "Doughnuts"?

    as much as I can't stand to say it... hondas are the best way to make big power for little money... with a D16Z6 boosted they make a solid 265+ with out any problems, and those motors can be had for 100, if your serious about this I would say a Honda, swap in a B18 with B16 head, pistons, rods, cams, head work, and then boost it with some hondata and your good to go... I saw a vid of a civic with this set up making 832 whp and 421 wtq... not bad for a little 1.8 Honda motor. just my 2 cents
