Best P-plater Motorsport Car.

[R34 -_-]

I would say an R34 GT-V just because i have one and i find it handles really well and has enough power to be reasonably quick down a straight bit of road as well as just corners.

Already has the same brakes as a GT-T and same factory suspension plus LSD but i would recommend new springs at least to get rid of the 4x4 height haha.

Toyota Altezza's seem to be popular over here in NZ, i've test driven a few and there pretty quick off the mark and feel like they might handle well.

Over in England the Peugeot's are a popular choice too, small light and cheap

If you want to do skids get a commonwhore...

Tell that to all the NSW members who have attended a texi day and had a great time.

Heh, by power I meant something with a little go. A 1.1L Daihatsu whilst light and nimble will be useless with its 20seconds 0-100kph acceleration.

The mid 90s Daihatsu Charade with the optional 1.3L EFI or 1.6LEFI engine, is pretty good and nimble. 75kw (1.3) or 88kw (1.6) and roughly 890kg. Good for the technical stuff if you can keep it on the boil and figure how to keep traction.

My folks have a 1.3L - it goes quite well from 0 to 80 (around town) - higher speeds is very meh.

Very nimble around round abouts and the tight stuff. Typical street speeds 50 to 80 - its actually a pretty good car. End of the day it is a car designed for a 3 cylinder carb engine.
