Default Help me decide

Ok people,
Me and one of my friends have decided to go in on a cheap project... We want to build a really fast car..on a budget.. Its going to be a "street" car... but not daily driven.. Every once in a while, we'll probably take it to the street races.. It is going to be titled in new jersey, so we arent worried about how loud the car is or emissions or cops.. We are looking to spend about $5000 total.. We'd prefer rwd or awd and manual...It is getting built just to go straight.. No curves or anything like that... We'd like to hit high 9's on et streets... Basically, we want the most power possible in as light of a chasis as possible but still maintaining a sleeper look to it.. Got any ideas? It doesnt have to be an import either.. It'd be nice if it looked halfway decent... Untraditional swaps are welcome too...

So far suggestions we've come up with:
1. 2nd gen rx-7 with a boosted 350...
2. 2nd gen rx-7 with a t76 3-rotor...(might be way over our buget)
3. 1983-1989 280zx with a boosted v8
4. 1983-1989 280zx with an rb25 and a big turbo...
5. Turbo mustang 5.0 notchback...
6. 1990 240sx with rb25 and a big turbo...
7. Boosted chevy monte carlo ss
8. Turboed 'ol school bmw 325 with a built motor
9. Mitsubishi Mighty max truck with a 4g63 and a big turbo...
10. sr20det nissan truck with a bigger turbo
11. Mazda b2200 truck with a 13b or a 20b and a bigger turbo..
12. Older Toyota tacoma with a 1jzgte and a big turbo
13. Ol' school firebird/trans am with boost...
I just want to do something different... Any other suggestions? Do u favor any particular combo that i mentioned? why?
