a hopped up modernish econobox is in fact better.

You're forcing a miscommunication so I'll make myself look like an ass when I would have inevitably taken your comment to mean something else.

I can only presume you have a short list of cars you think are better for touge-ing than my list, or you're meaning to say that any old car is good for tougeing, like an old avalon.

Either way you're an ass and shit at basic communication.
>>
>>14113829
i dont understand, how does that change anything
have you shopped for a car under 5 grand? its not very limiting
>>
>>14113833
what he means to say is that you should touge in your DD
>>
>>14113826
Stancefags love Hondas way more. And again, dedicated sports car.
>yeah bruh I bought a civic
>it's totally a better choice because a pro driver made a better laptime in it on a track across the ocean that i'll never visit
The miata or MR2 are something OP can build off of if he wants later without having to upgrade from a goddamn fwd commuter car.

>>14113832
what is your problem

i just feel like when people are shopping in 5 grand people on /o/ assume that must be poverty tier and the best you can get is a base corolla or civic

You lost me br/o/

>>14113837

but he'd have to pour alot of money into one of those cars to be on the same level as the modern day hopped up econobox
and then when you are comparing a stock car vs a modified one this argument is no longer worth discussion
you're injecting personalities into a certain kind of car for no real reason, you just want to demonize the car because "there's no way ff can be good bro"

yeah you can talk about your sikk rotary swapped miata/mr2 or your ls1 swap or whatever fucking bullshit, but at the end of the day that's going to take a lot of time and money, especially upgrading the suspension and all that
when the modernish hopped up econobox is already pretty solid with a good aftermarket that can make it even better
>>
>>14113854
So you're saying a $5,000 Corolla can beat, say, an LT1 Trans Am or Foxbody, etc, in Touge?

Outside of the super duper special type r 90s hondas, correct. OP is not going to find one of those, and even then, he can most likely find something better still. With an MR2 he's getting MR, that's a huge bonus already, and with a miata, he's getting double wishbone suspension combined with light weight and rwd. Sure, he could buy an early 2000s honda, but that's a fucking commuter car with a garbage suspension setup and nowhere near as much aftermarket support, not to mention a very small enthusiast community, where as everything in the world has been done to miatas and documented. I'm sorry you're probably trying to rationalize purchasing an econobox for yourself, but if op wants a fun car, he rewlly, really should stick with a dedicated sportscar platform. Power is easy to add. Tires are easy to change. Brakes are easy to upgrade. Curb weight, weight distribution, suspension design? Not so much.

Why are you so delusional?
Why can't you accept that these cars are on equal footing?
The 30 year old sports car based off a backwards toyota corolla is not in fact better stock than the modern day hopped up econobox
which is what OP asked
you list these things like they're nothing, but you're literally asking thousands of dollars to get the car up to snuff and then more money to make it a one of a kind super car
have you ever, EVER driven the modern day hopped up econobox

OP here

I feel your pain Honda bro.

I've been battling with myself all day about considering Hondas and I always come back to the same question.

Is it possible to get a honda within or near 50/50 45/55 weight distribution?
I want the Honda power, but the realist in me understands balance is more important . .
>>
>>14113849
americans ignore this because they dont have good options
>>
/o/ Is pretty retarded so let me put this in perspective.
Imagine in Initial D, someone rolled up in an unmodified stock 1960s Chevy Camaro for the touge
Hey, thats a rwd sports car isnt it? It'll fucking eat the EK9's breakfast.
What about the 60s Beetle? It's fucking MR! Look at that advantage over the shitty ass DC2 fucking FF pleb.
>hey Tomoyuki you fukin faggoo lets race in my stock 240z you fucking pleb

I mean, this is the real equivalent of what you people are arguing.
>>
>>14113934
Actually 50/50 isn't that important in FWD
we had a build thread over fwd
>>14106981
>>14094997

even if you dont end up buying FF its worth taking a look at
>>
>>14113952
>What about the 60s Beetle? It's fucking MR!
It's RR. RR is literally worse than FF. Yes, that applies to the 911.

What is the weight distribution on the cars you recommended? TLDR on your build thread?
>>
>>14113999
60/40 with wider tires in front like a backwards mr2 desu

rwd is good at 45/50

Yes but barely. You're gonna spend at least 500-1000 on tall guy mods, most of it on 1 good racing seat that will have you sit much lower than the ones ripping foam out of their seat. Then you'll want a smaller steering wheel. The rest costs no money, visor delete, armrest delete, center console delete.

Now your car has less weight, fits you like a glove, and will brace you in the corners. Stock miata seats, in every single generation, are not good in the corners.

Aus fag here, had a 5kish budget(on road, so car was no more than 4k), you can get alright na mx5's, dc2 vti-r's or flogged gc8s that have been written off

Gc8's are the most powerfull but do feel heavy, especially in the steering
Owned an na mx5, good little car, more inconspicuous than a dc2 (I found), motor isnt quite the b18c3(I owned a 1,8) and they are stupidly noisy
Now I own a dc2 vti-r, love the motor, great feeling and desu I love driving ff, the only problem is the stigma around hondas and mine with a mugen wing stands out a lot(they look pleb with anything less than a type r wing)

Nobody is suggesting that you idiotic son of a bitch, we're suggesting a goddamn miata or MR2. Light little cars designed for cornering.

Then get two motorcycles.

"touge racing" is for children who saw Initial D and thought it was fact. They'll cobble together some shitbox, never actually go fast, waste money, and just endanger the lives of everyone around them while blaming the car the whole time for their driving skills..

Define what you want better.
I generally differentiate between "fast" and "quick"
I use quick when referring to acceleration and fast when referring to top speed.
Fast? Literally anything and a tune, but you want quick so we'll try.
>SRT4 Neons
Are quick but high maintenance. Upgrades are cheap and you can easily push one past 300 HP for under 10k.
I live in anti-fun carville, there are two srt4 neons for sale around me, both are over 8k, but have been tuned. So I guess it depends on the area.
>Miata
More likely to find one of these, pushing it past 300 goes about the same as the srt4 neon. Doesn't have as much physical aftermarket and Ill-fitted hardtops are the bane of any fun car.
>MR2
I dunno about these things at all, but they're cheap.
Don't know much about any other car in that price range, I always looked with a 10k hard budget so most of the things I look at are more than you want.

preludes are pretty good anon. they were high in my list, just hard to find and if found in a decent condition. would recc for your budget though. I probably should have got one looking back.

Well its true, can buy a bike faster than any car available for $2500.
