the s130 turbo has been suggested, but on that note, i would suggest getting an s30 and putting the turbo motor from the s130 in it, because s30's look better. to me at least. you'd have a lot of fun and learn a lot doing the swap too. it's not the hardest swap from what i hear.

oh yes. thats SUCH a better option for someone new to cars, advise them on doing a motor swap right off the bat and while your at it wire in the new ECU harness. we've had long timers get stuck on that harness for weeks at a time. will, thought thats a great setup, thats a TERRIBLE suggestion to give someone thats new to cars and im sure not rich nor able to afford the reliability woes of that swap at this moment.

I live close enough, about 40 miles. This ad posted no phone number. I check CL many times a day and came across this ad within an hour of it being posted Friday night. I send him (or her) an e-mail immediately and still haven't gotton a reply. Someone else probably got to it first.
