if you'd wanna go even cheaper.. take a honda, throw in a D16A6 ZC, chip it, full exhaust.. take out all the shit you dont need in the int. ..
a shot of nitrous and you've got yourself a 13 second car..
for $3,000 not bad if ya ask me ;-)
of course.. in order to go any faster, you'll have to do internals which get pricey.. then you could turbo it.. but by the time you do all that your another few thousand in lol

D16A6 is not a ZC. D16A6 is a single cam vtec motor. a ZC motor is a DOHC non vtec from the early integras and other civics and stuff in japan.
Either can be had for under $400 and will bolt to the stock transmission. Exhaust is CHEAP. And so is Nitrous.
You could do that setup for under $1000 if you play your cards right and buy a non running car for cheap.
B16/B18/B20 are all the same motor. Thats like saying a 327 is better than a 350 or a 400 or a 283. a Smallblock chevy is a smallblock chevy, in the same respect that a B series honda is a B series honda. The B16 being the 283 of the bunch.
A solara is FWD, same car as a camry. a 2JZGTE won't work. END OF STORY.
A fiero has the same problems as a FWD car, except for traction. how fast do you plan to go on a transaxle?
I like the idea of a V8 fiero honestly. But there are PLENTY of faster cars out there. shit, my girlfriend's car is faster.
Who needs torque when you rev to 14K rpm??? And turbo rotarys make good torque. Have you ever seen a 20B? its a 3 rotor motor. thats like a 9 cylinder, and it has the torque to match.
I'm telling you guys, theres ALOT of fast cars, hondas too! And if you start to get cocky, thats when you lose your money. I know of a 8 second turbo foxbody driving around the streets out here. My neighbor like 5 houses up has a centrifugally blown blowthrough big block poncho in a 2nd gen firebird that makes just shy of 1000 wheel hp, and he drives it on the street. I always think its my girlfriend's car when i hear the vortech whistling.
So yeah i'm not trying to bash your car, i'm just saying "be careful with your $$" haha. Whats racing for fun if its not for money??
ohhh and a KB 03-04 cobra is nothing to laugh at. I've personally seen KB cobras pushing over 650 hp.... And that was pretty close to stock longblock i think...
