Late gen corvair 65-69
Ej25 or 13bt or the 2.7 from the 73 carrera to replace the chevy 2.7.
Disc brake conversion and dual master cylinders
Spoiler from the Yenko Stinger.
Cage
Panasports or old ARE Meshies

It's around $12k the last time I checked to rent RA...Roebling Road, Barber, and Little Talledega is much cheaper!
So what would you build?
Bozzio for president.
If I had to use every bit of the 10k towards a car, I'd build a K-series EK. If I had 10k to do as I choose, I would put 5k in my Mustang and put the other 5k towards college.

My current car with a buschur built 6bolt stroker + fp red
I would be happy with that.
Project 1.0
BMW e30 │ 2.8L M52 │ GT30R
Phase I
Through continuous trading I have about $1,200 invested in my one owner chassis and '96 engine including the OBD1 conversion. Turbo setup is going to run $4k with stand-alone engine management. Clutch & flywheel is $1k+. Race quality coil-overs $1-1,500 used. Various suspension components: sway bars, strut bars, etc. $500. So around $8k and I still have a completely stock looking e30, lol! Granted it's a reliable 380-420whp (10-18psi) and weighs 2,400 lbs with insane handling...equaling the power to weight ratio of a Ferrari F40.
Phase II
The cosmetics will run it well over the $10k though! My 14 yr. old wheels were over $1k but I can't mount them until I do a 5-lug conversion, $500-1k, plus they require wider fenders front and rear! Intending to keep the cost of the wider OEM e30 M3 bodywork around $2k-2,500...fenders, quarters, bumpers, rear window trim, & wing. Fully wrapping the interior in black synthetic suede (I don't want to think about what that will cost even though I'm doing most myself). Canadian Brides wrapped in synthetic suede, or at least the bright white Bride logo dyed black, $800-1k+. Rollcage < $1k. Custom Porsche Brembo caliper brake kit with 13.1" rotors for about 1/4 the cost of a comparable Brembo kit. Paint will require the car to be completely assembled in perfect working order then fully disassembled down to the chassis, sprayed, then reassembly. I don't want to think about that cost either but I can't wait for that day to assemble a basically brand new car!
Basically for what a well used AP2 S2000 costs I have a cheaply insured, antique tagged & emissions free, 400+whp ground up built beast with a timeless style. Worth it? We'll see
Project 2.0
Black BMW e34 │ Black 18" ACS Type II/III's │ M52 │ GT35R
Ideally I'd take the M52 turbo from the Project 1.0 and replace it with an S54 e46 M3 or Euro Spec S52 engine and 6 speed manual. The GT30R would then be upgraded with a GT35R giving the e34 around 500whp. The M52 with head gaskets and studs is reliable up to 25psi so 18-22psi should be more than sufficient. Coil-overs, sway bars, and you have a solid comfortable sedan that's rather quick.
Project 3.0
Z32 300zx slick-top chassis │ LS6 conversion w/ T-56 │ JIC 12k/8k coil-overs │ 18" BBS LM replicas.
Much more simple than the first project but will still cost right at $10k doing all the labor myself.
clean eg with built and supercharged gsr motor,gsr trans with lsd. some crazy ass suspension to go along with it (maybe full tein), some base coat clear coat and i got the ultimate honda mountain car.
and barber is such a nice place... so after a build my perfect 10k eg me and the friends will go there !Threads like this separate the real car enthusiasts from the parking lot queens.

I'd save up 6k more for a turbo charger then save up enough to buy a car to put the turbo charger in

THE DARK LUDE SPEAKS
10K?
I'd put a 4G63T setup in my colt, convert it to AWD (they made them AWD but mine isn't one of them), slap a nice set of wheels with some sticky tires, turn the boost up to say 15 psi, remove the back two sets of seats (it was considered a "microvan" back in it's day), and then go have some fun with all the ricers around town... lol Dear God that car would be sick.
Then I'd get it on the cover of S3 Magazine!
I don't know what I would do with other 2k I'd have left. Probably take it to Vegas. lol
The original post has been the exact same for 2 1/2 years and specifically says, "body, engine, suspension, wheels, etc."
This isn't a mod your car thread. The title is, "With $10k what would you build?". People just can't read and if I was a mod I'd delete all their posts.
i would build my bank account!
Hella stock member!
CRX and run HC.
Hmm...lately I've been really into the e34 BMW 5 series, so I'd try to get a 540i and make it as quick as an M5.
Yeah I didn't expect it to be cheap but i was under the impression it wasn't that expensive!Threads like this separate the real car enthusiasts from the parking lot queens.

Oh well my corvair would still be fun as hell!

and yeah around that for big tracks. Tally is between $1800-$3000 depending on day
stock exterior 4dr 92-95 civic, built turbo b-series with about 400hp
-2001 Lexus IS300
-2004 Pontiac GTO - 530hp/625ft lbs - 10.62@130mph - Sold!
looking for anything over 600whp on C16.
these fucking subaru's aint cheap lol
i have decided instead of blowing that much on a pre-built motor i'm going to give it a go with what i have. EJ257 with CP pistons, and cosworth cams/valvetrain etc. I already have the full GT35R setup with supporting mods.
Who knows?
Idea 1:
93 SC300 w/ JDM 2J Swap (Auto OEM Trans). USDM ECU. Stock twins with bolt ons. Wheels & Coilovers. Fun DD, until the tranny gives.
Idea 2:
95/96 Subaru Impreza L AWD. Lots of suspension mods. Wheels. EJ25 Swap. Bolt ons. Mountain/Track toy.
Idea 3:
1993 B13 SE-R. SR20D Blue Bird Swap. Shock/Spring combo. Wheels. Extra to play with power. Street toy.
And, the S2000 (my pride and joy) would cost much more than $10g
Let me try this again...
If I had to BUY a car, I would build a HC CRX
If I was putting money into a car, it would be the TT vette. Just a few minor this and the rest would be for tires, entry fees, and a new trailer
