you started out strong with the rocket bunny kit, then failed hard on the LSX.

Kouki S14 front end conversion, SR22VET, PBM everything, Crazy cage/tube chassis, 8x Gram light 57D in "Luminous Yellow".

done.

Or just give me Kyle Pollard's Silvia.

The biggest problem is that with $50k the majority of us here on this forum could buy every part made for our shitboxes and still have a nice chunk of money to put in our retirement funds.

As far as my car,I'd also start with a brand new ZR1 swap.Or a turbo LSx of some sort*love*........Nisbro,I've said it before-you're doing it wrong.Everything in your description above is dead on,except the engine setup

-Fully built large single turbo 2JZ-GTE (6 speed obviously)
-Z06 front brakes
-Z3M rear subframe and trailing arms
-Weld and reinforce tabs for dual-ear differential
-HRE 501s (polished lips, gold inserts)
-Full black Alcantara interior (with black quilted leather inserts)
-Carbon fiber hatch, sunroof patch, and hood (all paint matched)
-Full respray in BMW Frozen Grey
-Reinforce chassis, possibly full roll cage
-Bimmerworld race control arms and spindles

Hard to think of anything else (but I'm sure there's more) and I think I could get all that for under 30 grand, so I have no clue where the other 20k would go. Maybe rent for next 5 years or so.

Im 100% Anti-LSx Swap. I only support Import V8 swaps such as VH45's, VK56's, 1/2/3UZFE's, etc... I just despise American V8's (except for the new 5.0)

In all reality, with $50k, i wouldnt waste my money on an SR. I'd just build an N1 RB26DETT.

Perfection Muffler on Peters Creek... But if you're willing to drive Joey(hateful mechanic) in Floyd can do it (used to be Protocal Automotive, but I think they changed their name). He made my exhaust and I provided the muffler and resonator.
