the new turbo kits for the rx8 are freakin' sick....... with just less than 8 pounds of boost, the car is pushing almost 70 more ponies at the wheels... nothing beats the sound of a rotary turbo... the motor is bulletproof and it's a six speed....
if you want to get a Z, get the 35th aniversary edition... the 35th comes with 300hp at the wheels STOCK.... all the other Z's don't even come close to comparison unless you're talking about the older Z's with the twin turbo setup....
type s is alright if you like driving an upgraded civic.... same frame... it'll feel the same as drving the car you have now after a little while....
the s2k is nice.. i honestly love that car... it shifts really nice and it has really good cornering for road race and track use.... i kinda think the car is underpowered... usually when magazines do cover stories on these cars, they'll show a crazy HP # but they will never show the TQ... know what i'm saying?
if you want something as a daily driver, then find something that'll save you gas and keep you going in the long run... if you want a toy... i like the rx8

I say get a wrx or sti ... do not get an evo ... and don't get a tsx, unless you don't mind having fwd.

theres another company other than greddy that made a kit that makes more HP than them... i'll ask my friend about them...
50/50 weight distribution + 6spd + 9K redline in a rotory =
