Also read they tend to be underrated and come making the advertised crank numbers to the wheels.

For the $40-50k range, I'd also be looking at Q60. That VR30 is an animal and has been proven to be underrated. Z1 baselined a bone stock 1 and it put 304whp/311wtq down, even though they're only supposed to make 300/300 crank, and with nothing more than a tune, it made 411/453. It's a nice car and for $600 in "mods" you can add 100/150. That's a helluva hp/$ gain.

Fully agree. On top of that you can get them lightly used for 30-35k so it's pretty much a steal.
