The Quicker Car

[alex690]

Ok, I'm under the new P plate laws, which car do you guys recommend for speed. Doesn't necessarily have to be a Honda.
Thanks.

[Chi]

For you?

A Train.

[xtat1k]

Foot falcon

[milkman]

Ferrari F40.

[alex690]

Can i get a honest answer please price tag anywhere between 20 and 25K

[EKVTIR-T]

So you want the fastest car for 20-25k?

Rotary....

[CB7_OWNER]

Sumfing that is turbo diesel will be my pick....if you want it too be 100% legal.. otherwise i'd get a civic or integra type r

[wasabi]

bike.

[I heart the SSS]

Buy a Datto 1600

EFI swap

13B PP

Boost it** cancel this out if you are not a bad****

= lol 5th gear? i thought this was first.

[milkman]

VL turbo with dose.

[martin]

LOL his under the new p plate laws he cant drive turbo ahh i suggest a dc2 type r good for the money and wif i/h/e it can beat some turbo cars

[MikeyG]

mate.. get a dc5r or dc2r mate... or better yet..

grab urself a standard ek cxi or gli.. build it up from there.. get a b16b. slap it in not only will u save money but it will be fast mate

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

Hmmmm

N/A Silvia's are nice and have (IMHO) Alot of power and i find fun to drive (just Beware if your are 6"1+)

You might be able to pick up a S2k for around the 20-25k Budget aswell

A Toyota corolla Sx is nice (I heart the sss's one is bery noice)

Seeing as you have 20k budget and may choose to stick with honda (and if you want to do some work) Buy a 84-91 Civic/Crx and do a B18c or B20 Swap (IMHO)

Will get some wicked times then and once you're on your full license turbo will only improve things :D

[PNS 001_EG3]

mate easy build an eg with a k swap. pick up a real nice eg for around 6500, 12000 for a k swap. and you ll be good to chew any turbo or v8 from the factory no worries. youll smoke most slightly mod turbos (eg) skylines, supras, evos. and when you want to sell you will still get good money for it!

[Elwood]

Buy a SSS and put some chromies on it and try to race every car with an exhaust that you see, but still lose because you suck.

[defect]

where u located?
get the ek2024 thats in brisbane

[Aza]

u no under p plate laws u also cant have a car that requires a mod place... for example engine conversion.

buy an integra.

[VTECMACHINE]

Hyabusa turbo!

[defect]

^ in a smart car :>

[beeza]

Lots of Awesome cars for sale on here atm DROOOOOOLLLL!!!!

[Limbo]

i believe under P laws they cannot have any modifications to the car?
Pretty sure no Turbos also or V8s

I'd buy a dc2r - they are just under $20k (for a good condition stock one), and are fast out of the box

[dwn_boi]

buy a vl :D

[BiLL|z0r]

If ya wanna go fast, go to the track. You're not giving P platers a good name with the stereotypical "I wanna fast car".

For a serious response I'd go a Teg as well.

[rayb3na_]

i think you should verify why you would wasnt a fast car under the p plate law.. otherwise u will get flamed alot on here.. if ur gonna be doing all ur hard driving on the tracks etc. i suggest a type r.. good track car from factory imo. if ur gonna do it on the streets do yourself a favour and dont buy a car.

2nd that!

Too many stupid drivers out there it isn't funny.

[mattchuej8]

The more i look at the type S the more stylish i find it.

DC5s might slightly be out of the price range, but u can get a clean DC5R.

very good P plater car, has speed, looks, and recaro's :D

[Riviera]

you will soon have to find new mates cause you will be too cool in a DC5R lol

[55EXX]

a dc2r would be a waste in a p platers hands wanting to drive fast. before we know it'll be written off after a high speed crash

[mars_panas]

mate.. get a dc5r or dc2r mate... or better yet..

grab urself a standard ek cxi or gli.. build it up from there.. get a b16b. slap it in not only will u save money but it will be fast mate

Don't think he can drive those either with the new P's...

if you are after a Honda just get a dc2 leave it stock outside and do up the engine bay... :thumbsup:

[pattyd89]

there's some good drilling going on in here lol

[Lukey]

mate.. get a dc5r or dc2r mate... or better yet..

dc5r is too powerful for p platers in vic lol.

[vincikwan]

just get a 4-dr corolla, why do u want to go so fast for? The P plate law is supposed to stop u from doing that. LOL

[dc2dc2dc2]

get ur dose on
toooot tututuututuuu tooooot tututuutuuu

[Raztaz]

new lancer VXR, new corolla (u'd be surprised), a....R33.

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

a dc2r would be a waste in a p platers hands wanting to drive fast. before we know it'll be written off after a high speed crash

Even more of a reason for P-platers to get them :)

So in the near future a B18c7 can be cheaper for me :wave:

[defect]

haha buy the halfcut :>

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

haha buy the halfcut :>

Would rather just buy the whole thing from auction and take what i want/need as i go (considering what i have in mind for the car :3)

[tseesinngwailo]

So lets get this right, you have hardly any driving experience, and you have $25K at your disposal, and you want to buy the fastest legal car around?

Why dont you learn to drive for a few years instead of adding to the road statistics? save your money and probably some other road users life first, driving like a nut on "P" plates will only cost you far more than you bargain for (death, destruction or walking due to loss of licence), its also the type of behaviour that gives modified car owners a bad name.

[55EXX]

i vote you buy a stock eg light sussy mods and work up from there. put your money in the bank to earn interest then come time bust it out k20/24 all the way

[tekung89]

go dc2R man u'll be surprised at wat they're capable of for a stock car. or maybe a s2k to get da ladies

[turbo convert]

Dc2r!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cymax]

Go back to your basic first. It's not good to start off with a fast car that you have no experience in handling. Also, you won't learn much as well. An EG should be a good kick start for you. Consider EG Si or VTi as the learning platform.

dont u love how everyone now raves on how bad p plater drivers are ect. half my mates when they were on there p's drove turbo charged cars, we all still have our licences and are still fine. now just becuase its not legal to do it everyone thinks its outragous for ppl to even think of wanting to drive a turbo car at that age and gets labeled as an idiot. bit hipercritical dont u think? im sure if u had 25 grand at his age u all would of bought something with abit of balls. ps who says he isnt a 20 year old on his p's?

even so i know at 18 i was driving a turboed civic and at 19 i was driving an evo.

[johnprocter]

i envy you :(

[turbo convert]

well i agree with Aza, you dont need to start with something slow.
My logic is if you buy a performance type car then its equipt to do what you ask from it, hence the brakes, suspension etc. Most accidents you see are from cars where ppl ask too much of there car which its not capable to do.:wave:
My 2cents

[Limbo]

a dc2r would be a waste in a p platers hands wanting to drive fast. before we know it'll be written off after a high speed crash

then i can get the engine cheap cheap ;)

That's cause you da man!

[VTECMACHINE]

Old mini with a B18C engine in it!

[Aza]

Old mini with a B18C engine in it!

dont u guys listen, YOU CANT HAVE A CAR WITH A ENGINE CONVERSION ON UR P'S

no mod plates allowed.

[alex690]

Fellas relax i just turned 18, when was the last time you saw a car with a bit of balls crash. It's more a phsycological thing for me, im not gonna be a racing hoon on every road i just want something with a bit balls. I'm a sensible driver as mates of mine have been killed in high speed accidents.
thanks for all your responses. Pretty sure DC5R is at the top of the list for me.

Contradiction much?

I think you should have worded the original post and title a bit better if you're just after a ballsy P-plate friendly car.

[Aza]

well he is asking for the quicked p plater car so obviously he wants to do it by the book, seems sensible to me...

[Red_EG4]

Statistics show that your first car will suffer. I'm not trying to say anyone is a bad driver. So IMO find a neat older car that has that bit of grunt. N/A S13 silvias have plenty enough power IMO as do Commodores and Falcons.
How do P platers drive S2000s? isnt power to weight ratio restrictions 135kw per tonne?
