Used Z06's are a bit more expensive but have even more potential... $20k-30k is all it takes to have a street car that can beat a GT-R.

So you're planning to wait 15 years until this thing is $4000? And all the motors to swap in it are also old and affordable. This is the point that I think is trying to be made.
Like I mentioned earlier, the RX7 was a halo car when it came out. This car isn't. There will be a bigger performance gap to make up. Think of it's concept namesake, the AE86. You have to throw a lot more time and money at a used Hachi-Roku to make it GT-R fast, than at a used JZA80 Supra twin-turbo.
