Need some ideas!

[MrScary]

Ok my brother has a 01 Mercury Sable right now. He needs to pay off like 5Gs still. He wants a car with some potential for some nice amount of power. I'm thinking he would want either a gen 2 or 3 integra. But I have no idea about engines and potential of these. I know theres a ton but have no clue where to start. Or would there be anything else, like a 240sx or somethin cheap maybe RWD?

[camzaro28]

tell him to take 600$ and put a 75 shot to the sable. that would be sweet.
for the amount of money for integra, u could buy an old foxbody mustang.

[Lothurin]

ROFL buy a beretta!:) hehe throw in a 3400 5 speed;)....

Find a Starion or Conquest

[out there]

why? so he can go through all the cost and problems of putting a 4g63 into it? not a bad idea... but not quite cheap either.
find a thunderbird turbocoupe for originality, not many of those around. couldn't the ford 2.3 make around 400hp w/stock internals?

[PSiedTSi]

you can go fast with a conquest tsi, exhaust and a boost controller

[out there]

just what he wants, a 17+ year old turbo engine that wasn't highly regarded to begin with :rolleyes:

[PSiedTSi]

whats wrong with it? you can hit 13s easy with em...its not like he wants to run 8s...

Price range?

[MrScary]

About 3000 at the high end. I would love to find a conquest myself but I would never find a good one for cheap. I know of 3 at least in St. Paul. I should just tell him to do an SHO Sable

[dsmquest]

I don't recommend a conquest because you will become addicted to it. There are a total of 4 that i know of now in the area. I got mine on E Bay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1988-Chrysler-Conquest-4-cylinder-turbo-Repair-or-Parts_W0QQitemZ7988632774QQcategoryZ6763QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
and i drove it home on 1 injector... got a different injector and it runs like a champ. Plus the guy was old and he thought injectors were 200 bucks. Thats why i got it so cheap. There around you just have to look.

[out there]

that doesn't make any sense...

[TakeYourTopOff]

Their is a (could be nice) conquest in Mayvile I helped the guy put a motor in it (after he blew it up in a parking lot) but he still hasn't had it tuned fully 2+ years later LOL... it's a teal color, not bad looking car

[MrScary]

Actually I just found a really nice Conquest on Ebay thats in Mpls. But I think he prolly doesn't want one which kinda pisses me off but I think he would have to sell his car first. And I have no idea if its hard to sell a newer car

Hows about a 2nd gen rx7 turbo2, they're fun to drive and pretty cheap to buy if you can find one.
