I'd buy a KE25.

 

Do it up nicely with:

 

3SGTE with some wicked turbo

W58 box

TRD LSD (cos they're ramp-up style)

Sports Exhaust

Brake upgrade

Half cage

Set it up to handle

Slap some expensive rubber on some expensive rims

Paint it nicely (havent decided on colour)

 

Then go blow everyone away on the street and turn lots of heads:)

20g to pimp my Tercel! lol ;D

 

Maybe not...

For that i would get my dream car done.

My Ke26 allredy has the looks, but with that money i could get 4 cylinders more, VVT-i, 5spd tiptronic, 2xKnots on the exhaust and programmeable engine and transmission management.

OK... To throw a spanner in the works...

 

Anyone who has driven a full-blown racecar will know how much of a bastard they are to drive on the street/in traffic. Bone-jarring suspension, noisy, often spartan interiors (some of the rallycars I have driven don't even have heaters), Inconvenience of rollcages/no backseat or boot space, not to mention squeaky brakes that take 500degrees to actually work and ceramic/brass 'button clutches' (Ever tried a hill-start with one of them puppies??)

 

Those of us who voted 'speed'.... Did you factor in all these annoying bullshit things that come with having a tough, race-ready car??

Precisely why I specified a multiplate jobbie.

 

squeaky brakes I can live with, adds to its sleepiness.

 

And you forgot having to heat the oil to around 100C before you dare start the thing.

$20 Grand?? I'd pimp out my rolla.

 

You can't really legaly drive fast on the streets. You could get away with some things that would make the car drive better but since they're seen on the car you could classify it as hotting it up.

 

Eg, Exhaust Or intercooler, which would have to be attached to a turbo off couse.

I would struggle to spend 20k on a rolla. BUT!

Since it is make a choice I would choose speed

Don't forgett the $5000 paint job is to help with

the aerodynamics and the $800 racing seat is

to enable you to operate at your optimum.
