So, I found 2 things. First of all, I located a decent Diablo, for a decent price, and second of all, I found an unfinished beast of an engine Dad was working on. some kind of totally built up NA8C I think. Whatever was in the Miata. He pulled it from some green shitbox he had, and had planned to build it up, and put it back in, twin turbo. The only thing the engine needs is a little turbo piping work. I put the piping on and put it onto the engine dyno and the results are beyond crazy. The twin turbo, nos, all that, makes the engine hit 794 flywheel hp, and the turbos are estimated at running 58 psi!! I looked up on the internet how to do turbos, and installed the twins onto the MK 2. Not really liking how the intercooler is sitting on the bumper, and the fact I had to cut a good sized chunk out, but, it was worth the extra 75 horsepower. Shes closer to around 300 whp. Im gonna be headed out to West Valo to do a little drifting if anyone wants to tag along.
   And now the NA8C    [45 minutes later] I went and checked out the Diablo, and its so sexy. its this sea foam green color, and yes, its 4wd. It has SV badges on it, but its not an SV. that and someone at some point changed out the headlights for fared in ones, instead of popups. Needless to say, I test drove it, and it was exhilarating! Eventhough its just a low end one, its still got over 400 hp, with fat tires, and 4wd, it's not acceleration, its more like you're a football being kicked in the Superbowl. I managed to haggle the guy down to $98k, so I'm broke, but I have an awesome job, and a Lamborghini! with a V12! Now, I can't afford gas xDD
