    240 is your best bet.

    Which "Team" are you looking to join once your car is done? Your location would help decide, most "Teams" fight for turf and you don't wanna be in the wrong place.

    ^Yeah really.

    Hondas can be made fastest least amount of money, lots of 12 second cars on this side of town, some 9 second Civics as well. But 240 guys from ConV1ctRacing are moving in on some of the Honda guys in Athens.

    Snellville has some tough spots dude, be careful. I think that's where TrippleXXXSquad is? They run mostly EVO/STI's though. But they are some mean dudes.

    I have a 240 and rep the Sexypants crew. But most of the Athens folk (like Simon) have learned not to mess with me.

    1992 Nissan 240sx S13 Coupe 5spd *Very Clean*

    Probably the cleanest 240 you will ever find, @ 2,800 it's a bit over your starting price but it is OBO.

    Plus it will save you soooo much money in the long run

    This post makes me sad. I haz coupe.

    You could try 240atlanta.com if you wanted a hatch or another idea, you could pick up a 1st Gen DSM, just make sure it's a 6 bolt.

    Little dot below your posts... You were grey = n00b
    You are now green = on your way to being cool
    red = you suck at life

    You don't wanna be red.
    Rep means everything here.

    Click on user CP to se your rep. Make sure no one is around when you look...

    Don't think it's that easy, but I'm not a DSM guy so I'm not sure.
