I would suggest the S14 Style of 240sx, a 94-01 GSR, or the Prelude I would get a 96 and up or is it 97 whatever year they changed. I have a friend built a 240 and has an sr20det swap and on the stock turbo and on 11 psi ran 12.50s at 3000ft of elevation. Just my opinions though.

Oh and another thing about that 240 is its the S14 heavier than the earlier style 240 89-94 with full interior, and all power options. Where I live theres no gsrs that really run. Theres a civic hatch w/ a gsr that runs 14.8, then a prelude h22 that runs 15.9s. I have a teg myself.

Check out the GST/GSXs. They are quick and not to shabby looking. But you'll probably have to get one with very high milage. But with any car with high milage it is going to require some wrench hours.

Just curious about why the Caddy is #2 on your list..........doesn't seem to fit with the other cars mentioned.
