If you're in sydney, you could try calling up Indy from IS Motor Racing to get a check up for the car. He does alot of inspections on evo's as I heard from the evo forum and he does it right. As I remember it costs around $200.

10000 - 15000 you can buy a 94-97 180SX
98-02 WRX
i know someone will sell his 98 skylive R34 GTT 2 doors for 15000 cash
RWD is real fun but might not as good as most good setting honda in corner [is ture, i can use my 94 civic in one corner with 90km, But i cant do this with a 02 WRX... might be not yet]... but just give you a idea... honda FWD's concering is really good !
What you guys reckon of a Suzuki swift sports + a turbo kit for it?

mmm datsuns=money+time+more money, lol
every car that comes out of their factories just seems to have the worst engine bay area to work on (whilst the engine is still in the car, lol) a clutch that is imo way too small, piss weak gear boxs (S15s need the S14,13 gearbox to handle more power funnily enough), how they can be regoed as a four seater is beyond me, (for some time Nissan must think it a big joke even bothering with back seats in the r32, 180sx, 200sx, shouldve just deleted them entirely in favour of more room for a surf board, lol)
the only thing I like about the 4 banger rwd cars out of their factory is their weight distribution, agility, spooling of the rps13 when bumped up to 15psi, using a power fc, 3'' trust system, fmic and HKS Sequential BOV, but in reality its a matter of time before one of a few things happens:
Blow a turbo
destroy a gear box
main bearing failure
or theft/vandalism
other than that I'd spend more and buy a chaser or any other import... lol
mmm swift turbo :D those are going to be a cult classic one day, like the older models of the GTi :D
old cars....things break.
pretty normal I would have assumed.
you get what you pay for.
If it is indeed a weekend warrior, then it'll probably get driven in anger.
Keep it simple. Buy a stable base that has a expansive aftermarket support.
Try to keep gadgets to a minimum...just means less shit to break.
i.e ATTESSA, HICAS, ABS, TCS, AYC or VCD. etc etc etc.
Keep it raw, drive it hard. Have fun. :)
nigs has the right idea, buy a AH
