Yeah the Tiburon is just not really a good tuning platform. The Genesis turbo has good potential

ok, any other cars you'd recommend? i was also thinking about an integra and then have my neighbors come to my place and help me with and engine swap since i think that integras are light cars..then maybe drop a wrx motor into it? im not even sure if that would work but its just a theory of mine haha

Integras are good, much more proven than any Hundai. I'm not sure about an H4 engine in an Integra, lol.

Well it's certainly possible, as is anything. I've never seen Subaru's H4 turbo motor outside of the engine bay, and I've never seen an Integra's engine bay. So i can't say it won't happen, I just imagine it'd be really hard to get it to fit based on the type of engine.

Oh just by the size of the engine n *** ok i got you, what do you think wuld be a little bit more reasonable to put in there that i could find? a legacy GT? maybe? or should i just stick with the integra then mod the stock motor that it comes with? and i have a question for somebody to answer so tha my mom will maybe let e get an older car like a 92 or something like that..if there is a motor swap or something like it would it pretty mch be the equivelant of a newer car?

I think you'll have the same problem with any of the Subaru engines, as they are all Horizontal engines. I'm just betting that they won't fit into the Integra's engine bay properly. The Honda engines should be perfectly fine for that car and tuning, hopefully someone with more Honda knowledge will give you some better info

Ok I have been a guest on this forum for a while now and reading this message. And i just got hired on at a job making twelve dollars an hour and I'm looking into buying a good car for tuning and just around a nice car. I'm looking to spend around 12,000 on this car. I've been thinking about getting a 95 rx7, a 05 srt-4, and someone suggested a 3000 gt vr4. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

i would recommend a wrx or an impreza rs because they have a fairly big after market but also there parts are rather expensive

The FD RX7 and VR4 are both awesome cars. I have no experience with the RX7, but I here the maintenance is just as bad as the VR4. I'd be tempted to put an LS1 into an RX7 if I got one, tho lol

I keep hearing that rx7's motors almost go to **** after so many miles. Anyone know what the most amount of miles I should be looking for on a rx7 or any of the cars for that matter.
