Glad the front wheel drive thing was mentioned. I now have a 4 wheel drive and a rear wheel drive car but I sooo miss the fun of a small front wheel drive. There's a reason that back in the 60s the old Mini Cooper was winning all the rally competitions. Front wheel drive is a different driving style and it takes some getting used to but you can just floor it round bends. If you can find an old dirt road, you can just drive with your foot welded to the floor and throw it around corners and the back will just follow the front. Loads of fun.

Front wheel drive might sound less fun if you are into the drift scene but they are great cars to learn to tune on and hondas can be pretty tough and cheap parts.

I don't think it's a bubble, you only have to look at the cars of the 60's and 70's to see where the prices will go. Coupled with the fact that new cars are heading down the hybrid/ev route. The powerful and tunable cars of the 80's, 90's and early 00's are a finite resource, they are going to be worth more than gold.

@sonydominates 2 года назад

This is actually a good list, and I look at a lot of these cars on listings. A lot of other lists put on more popular cars and deflate the prices, but this is a legit list. I actually saw that same Saab 9-2X listing a while back. Just don't share this info too often or else I fear of even more inflated prices haha. Another good candidate is the C5 Corvette, but those are getting more expensive too these days.

@kefwals8722 Год назад

@arunbissoon4630 Год назад

My first enthusiast car was a Toyota AE101 Corolla with a 5A-FE engine. Though it topped out at a mere 90mph, it accelerated quickly. Impressively, it worked really well for a 4 speed automatic fwd sedan. It also came in a teal metal flake gloss colour with black 5 spoke rims. My favourite thing about it was the engine sound. It sounds almost identical to the 4AGE. Anyway, it's up for sale now due to the lack of aftermarket support in my country (Trinidad 🇹🇹) Once it's sold, I'm buying my brother's totally stock Nissan FB15 Sunny and I will easily modify it since Trinidad is a "Nissan Man" country. Nissan parts are incredibly cheap and always available here so I look forward to my future with the FB15.

In auto shop my teacher and I did some grinding to the valves, honed the cylinders, got the head and block machined down, new head gasket, water pump, fuel pump, and a bit of other things.

A few months ago I would’ve said “N54 335i”. But honestly, prices are starting to skyrocket for decent, low mileage examples, which is what you want since the N54 is a VERY capable and solid platform but also very susceptible to breaking when not maintained properly. You’ll find them in the $15k -$18k range depending on the mileage and condition of the engine.

@@Stormface16 nothing for now, it is still my daily but a mate of mine had it tuned to 210hp just by adding a K04 turbo and an exhaust combined with a new ecu map. So if only those mods already cause a hp increase of 60hp, adding some more mods like 4.2 V8 coils, bigger intercooler and new intake piping for a cold air intake, I bet you'll be making 300hp reliably. But be careful, connecting rods can't handle more than 350hp. But my engine has only done 300 thousand km which is still good for tuning

@@Manoah. do all 1.8T 20VT all have bigger intake ports? Like in TT, S3, Leon Cupra R, Ibiza 1.8T etc.

@Manoah. 2 года назад

@@MrLorenczo Nope. For as far as I know, only the 1.8t's in the B5 and B6 platforms (Audi A4's and VW Passats) and the Audi A6 have those. AEB engine for sure, and I believe there were 2 others aswell but I don't know for sure. But the regular 20vt's that are mounted transversely like the Golf and A/S3's don't have the big intake ports

@shaneducholke364 2 года назад

You need to do a list similar to this but with a cost breakdown of the modifications required and how many horsepower you add and end up with. See what is the cheapest way to get a car to 400hp or 500 hp or to add 200 hp to a cheap car. Another ideas is the cheapest high hp:weight ratio after mods. Is it an MR2 with $2000 of mods or something else. Get specific with the actual mods and those prices. Maybe to a bracket series where you start with 16 cars and do 2 cars each episode and pick a winner for those parameters

@Treaxvour 2 года назад

Would be cool, but would take a TON of research that relies entirely on other people's completed builds, and dynos, where the owner may not be the original modifier. Also, many people end up going over their budget, even when they think they planned well.

@MV-ri7zu 2 года назад

not possible to make a video like that. too many variables. it all depends on how good of a mechanic you are. if you cant do anything it will be expensive unless you just get a big v8.

@shaneducholke364 2 года назад

@@MV-ri7zu not true. There are common methods that are used over and over on the same car to add easy HP, exhaust, tune, cam or injectors. Some cars don't need much to add 100-150 hp and some need more. Don't need set up to reach max HP, but some cars you can add 100 hp for $1500.
