I mean I don't care for swapping motors. I am just going to knock the windows out and gut it and race it at this track. I wnat to whoop up on these guys down at the oval track. A lot of them have neons already and they are pretty fast. I might get the neon or mabye the honda.

Yes take the advice of the ricer thats not allowed to go the track because his mommy said so, he said stock not swapped, and what happens when you build a k20 with a good turbo set up.

Just hard to vouch for the K20 after the SRT-4 vs. K20 vid...and I wasnt comparing the two just because that vid was made, its coincidence that both have better engine versions from their respective companies

Anyways, two cars 100% identicle except K24 turbo vs. SRT4 turbo, the SRT4 would be faster because it has torque....powerband...

Ricers have two turbo Supras?

Is that why there was a turbo k20 rsx that was beating quite afew srt4s in the tampa area and a supra with different colored body parts like a maroon car with a black hood is a ricey hot mod.

Same amount of money for both, I think SRT4 has the advantage since it has half a liter and already a turbo. But whatever, we could argue all day long about engines and potential.

Hey now, I couldnt readily get ahold of a stock colored hood, and now it looks unique. In the garage. Not running Dripping blood (ATF, power steering boot on the axel is ripped)... Thats not why its not running though. It wouldnt take anything to get it running again, but anybody want a 7M-GTE? I have different plans for this car

Back to the topic I'd personally go Neon
