Default 94 Coupe EX Build Question

Ok so I have a 94 EX Coupe with the D16Z6 with 230k on it. I also have a auto tranny. I have about 4-6 Grand for the motor and accessories and want to know if anyone has any input on what i should do. I want a turbo and possible Nitrous but i heard that you can't use nos if u have a turbo so you have to use theN-tercooler Air Cooler. I want a good nice and fast car, but I don't plan to race it on a everyday bases. Probably just a toy for me, but at the same time I want a Mustang killer. So if anyone could help me out on what Mechanically i should do to it that would be amazing. Engine swaps are fine for me, also i am converting it to a manual tranny. Thanks, im just looking for what you would do with 4-6 grand in my position. I already have other money set aside for Visual and Safety. Thanks.

with that much money your best bet is a gsr swap

sell your car for $2000.

use $5000 to get a swapped or pre-turbo'd car. you will spend a shitload to get what you are looking. just get something built already.

Any suggestions?

gsr swapped coupes and hatchbacks are a dime a dozen. check on craigslist and ebay.

it will cost you $4,000 minimum to get a swap and manual conversion. then your car will still only be worth $4,000.

save $2-$3k and buy something already built up.

gsr swap. if you want turbo do an ls turbo. if you want a fast sohc, put dohc zc pistons in your z6. theres lots of neat stuff you can do with your budget.
