**** man, if you got 18000 get a ******* TT supra... you may be able to find a nice 4th gen for 18k.. but i know you can get one for 20 - 25k.. i would save up some more money then go all out on a supra :D... but Supra is my dream car.. so thats just my opinion ...

first buy a teg. whichever you like. 2nd and 3rd gens are both good just find a clean one. if you want real fast buy a 2nd gen to save $ and dump cash under the hood. But best way to go for power at all times is turbo so best to start with an LS usless you HAVE to have a gsr the LS is more turbo friendly, has low compression, or buy what you want, buy a B20, put a B17 crank in it, build it properly from there up, buy a RevHard turbo kit or Drag etc., usually better than Greddy unless you know exactly how to order the proper turbo and upgrades with a Greddy kit, and boost the **** out of it.

1997 integra LS. overbore that **** to 2.0L with resleave and P&P the head. put some hard internals in there (pistons, rods, springs/retainers, cams and gears) and throw the **** down with a nice FMICooled turbo running 18-20 psi. if you have any money left over get some not-too-crazy 15's or 16's (lightweight if you can) with some sticky rubber. Damn...I wish I had 18 large to throw at a car

i would look into putting that into a down payment for another car. but if really want a integra try to find a used one really cheap one like a RS with a crappy motor for like 3-4000$ and buy a low milege LS motor and build that thing for turbo drag3,greddy, wutever and get all kind of upgrades, suspension, interior, exterior and you'll haev a nice ride and it would cost problay under 18k. good luck with your choice.
