This is quite funny...
All I'll say is, look at the S13 (specifically 1991 240SX) and compare accordingly.
155HP, ~2650-2700lbs wet, 5 speed, stock tires are 195/60-15.
It didn't "slide out of control" until drifting took off. But even that... really? We're nitpicking over details here, when the important thing is:
- the car is not underpowered
- chassis balance is superb
- tires are great for factory because they are PREDICTABLE. You know when it breaks loose... and frankly, if you hate them, go buy a 370Z or better tires. The tires are "loose" for a reason, cost or otherwise
- Be thankful someone chose to build this car. As a longtime 240SX enthusiast (~1996), my dream car was always the S15 Silvia. This car is about as close to my dream car as possible.
