Decisions decisions..


Recommended Posts

Howdy people, I'm in abit of a dilemma ATM! I currently use a golf GT TDi as a daily and just sold my pulsar! Now I have a budget of about £5k to spend on something but I'm not sure what to go for!! People will say your choice but I'm literally torn between so many cars lol I don't need a daily car as it will be used as a weekend toy!

Options so far are

S14

K20 eg

K20 Ek

That's all ATm! Any tips ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks

Id love a boosted eg, one 3 hondas id have. K20 eg would be pretty mad though

Tbh in staying of turbo Hondas. Reason being is the figures look awesome but they don't put the power down that well! Like a k20 220bhp eg would have a 350bhp eg upto like 60/70 lol

Hmmmm I know I did say s14 myself but I'm not overly keen on the rears! M5 is out of budget unforrunalty as I'd rather have an e46 m3 but also out of budget :(

Im in the same boat, looking for a new car, similar budget just cant make my mind up, recently ive been looking at:

S13/ 180SX/ 200SX

Mitsubishi evo 4

3rd gen preludes

DC2 Integra

SC300/ Soarer

Evo 4 engines are shite apparently lol I've owned 2 dc2's and they amaing tbh! But just fancy a chnage!

For 5k you could pick up a decent spec Skyline gtst, either R32 or R33... that straight 6 sound!

Will be picking my 32 up tomorrow :)

Insuring a skyline won't be fun lol

You'd be doing well to get a k swapped ek for 5k pal! I'd get s body ;)

Well if push abit more for an Ek k20 lol a lot of money I know... That's what holds me back

Also I literally just sold my 300bhp pulsar so I'm thinking the s14 may be similar in a way?

Similar engine but imagine it would quite alot different. 4wd hatch compared to a longer rwd tourer. Engines being mounted different ways too

Hmm Yup true! I know this isn't any easy question and there are so many variables but what kind of power would an s14 need to be to be equivalent to a k20 Ek/eg? For example 1/4 time etc not that it will be a 1/4 car but just for comparisons sake

S body's are not about speed it's the shear fun of driving them is what makes them worth it and when the little torqueless Honda dies off offer 100 the Nissan will just keep on pulling until it runs out of gears

Haha you been in a k20 Ek/eg?

Vtec is pants absolutely no interest in it never in one bit I seen em go not that impressive unless there's a lot of money put into em

Haha lol very educated comment that! Firstly dc2 voted best FWD handling car. and also as most say a k20 eg/Ek would destroy most big powered turbo cars. I've owned a good few Hondas and a few turbo cars also so speaking from experience
