What to build?

[STEvil]

Current thinking is an extended cab shortbox S10/15 with Buick 3.8L Series II. ~240hp at 9psi and 28mpg highway depending on gear ratio and how heavy the foot is ;)

Other suggestions?

edit

Should mention budget at the moment is $3500cdn or close.

180sx. :D

240z + RB26DETT :D

read the fiero thread.. and build is what I actually wanted from the start ;)

The Super charged 3.8's are higher than 240 IIRC (Grand Prix, Bonneville, etc)

Find a Series II sans SC and then find a used GNX turbo to add to it....maybe even better on mileage :)

240z + RB26DETT :D

Nah, 180sx, but with a RB20DET. Light, nimble, untouchable if you can handle it. :D

The 240Z's are too hard to find nowadays, he can find a true silvia, do a sil-80 conversion with real parts, and swap the motor for fractions of the US people.

I need to move to canada. :D


Also, add 15k to your budget, and pick up an R31 or R32. I'm partial to the R31 myself. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Dunno if I want to mess with a nissan.. friend had a 200sx coupe (one of only ~6 in canada) and man that thing was a pita.

I think he traded it to his dad for a 200sx hatchback (dad runs a wrecking yard) so the car is still here maybe.....

Ryder - L67, 240hp ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_3800_engine#Series_II

edit

and just to note, when at idle or cruise the supercharger is bypassed on the L67 which is why it maintains fuel economy.
