are you going for looks or speed. If it's speed get an old school muscle car, 240 w/a det or ser/g20 and do a det.

I'm working on a project SE-R right now, i bought the car for 1800 then spent about 1000 for most the parts i need +450 shipped for a motor. After paint and everything i totalled up it's gonna be about a 5000 dollar car but it will run 12's, be able to autocross and look pretty sick.
