Hate on them all you want, but there still is nothing comparable for the money that will be faster around a track than a well sorted mildly modded sr20det-powered 240sx. The only other cars I'd look at would be a miata or an MR-2 but both will be significantly slower outside of an autocross environment.

Sure, there's tons of riced out examples out there with shitty chinese/korean parts, but the same is already happening with the FR-S/BRZ and will continue to be true of the FR-S/BRZ in the future. The difference is the 240sx is much, much, much cheaper, and the SR is much, much easier/cheaper to get power out of than the FA20.
