If you are going to try to maximize your speed/dollar investment, it doesn't get much better than an old V8-Stick-Mustang.

I prefer to be less run of the mill though, but you gotta pay to be different and fast.

i would hop right on the bandwagon and get an s13 5 speed.

very reliable
very good handling
and high 14s, low 15s from just a bolt on or two. not too shabby for an import!

they are also an excellent platform to begin a fun project, or to just keep mild!

Look for 89-93 240SX's. I forgot the differences, but one I believe is SOHC and the other DOHC. 240s are nice, RWD, dependable, and handle great. A real good choice.
