200sx s13, although if you get a tatty one you will end up forking out a bit. No major probs with either of mine or maybe a renault 5 gt turbo

Should be on your list, depending on money to spend (plus shameless opportunity to post image of my old 'toy'!)

That starrion is nice Smike.

A little run around I would definately say a Starlet GT Turbo, can get them up to over 250bhp per tonne quite easily.

Saab 900, Volvo T4 or T5, perhaps a cosworth sapphire if you don't mind getting a raggy shed.

I guess the seller needs to learn how to spell "Starion"?
Also am i right in thinking the Carlton GSI had a turbo?
Theyre quite nice cars in my opinion and a standard one seems quite appealing.

Not as standard - Courtenays did dealership conversions though


Lotus Carltons were turbo'd though
