11 BEST Manual Sports Cars For Ballin On A Budget!!

[@wd5807]

SHO is baller asf, but the reason they’re not talked about like the crown Vic is because of the reliability of it, still underrated imo but make sure you get one w good maintenance records!

[@markroden]

they are pretty cool if theyre not gray with red and blue lights

[@mohibwarsi]

Yeah I used to have one, they are terrible on gas, transmission is unreliable but it’s really fun to drive and crazy fast

[@TheBoss-pb1gd]

Great idea for a video youngster! Need these kids to continue the manual tradition! You Killin it brother.

thanks so much man and i agree lets keep the manuals alive

I got a 3rd gen prelude, they are awesome. Good handling and looks gorgeous. Only problem is that there isn’t much aftermarket support for them

[@DakineMike7]

Huge aftermarket support. You’re aren’t looking at the right places

[@s277garage6]

The sho only came in stick for 1st through 3rd gens. Not in the newest ones And as someone who has owned a b6 s4 manual, if you put some good sway bars, nice exhaust, and a tune. You can make Rs4 numbers N/A and they will handle INCREDIBLY!!! I've taken turns at way faster than I should have and it would just stick to the road.

[@markroden]

Yeah i messed up on the sho my bad, and the S4 line is incredbile bro

Ballin on a budget is my middle name, which is why I'm waiting for the deep dive on a Z24 Cavalier with manual transmission & supercharger!!!

One of my friends has a base cavalier that has been through the ringer over the years including being rear ended with no damage and it hasn't skipped a beat. Doesn't even leak oil the only issue is the sub in the back cuts out

[@werehogrider53167]

As a motorcycle rider, I wouldn’t recommend a 1000cc to anyone for any reason tbh. A 600cc will be just as fast on track and teach you how to actually ride, a 650 2 cylinder engine will keep up on the street with a 500hp car and that’s more than you need to have fun on two wheels lmao. I personally have a 600cc supersport and a 900cc naked bike and both of those are making around 130hp which is enough to do 0-60 in about 3 seconds with the front wheel floating off the ground.

04-08 TSX comes with a K24A2 i’m pretty sure. The K20 is the RSX motor its a 2.0L. Put an RSX head has better air flow, on the k24 TSX block for more power. Have to read and learn more to figure out a build. My cousin is giving me a TSX that needs clutch and valve seal work, he got a new car. Have to tow it back to Texas from Miami FL. So far learned stock block is good for +-600-700hp with a turbo, and to go higher need piston sleeves. AWD conversion is supposed to be $3-5k. But thinking of keeping it as a runaround car to put less miles on a ‘21 RST Silverado. Bikes are fast, dangerous, and addictive. I sliced +-20ft of intestines out day 2 of my first crotch rocket, and am still addicted. I have owned 3 faster bikes since, and biggest reason i hesitate to throw $10k at a turbo tsx awd build, when i’d still be faster on 2 wheels, and its a much cooler experience warp speed on 2 wheels. PS. should add some engine noise pulls to these car list videos. Ill sub when i hear the motors sing 🫵🏼💪🏼🙌🏼

The rsx type S comes with a k20a2 from 2002 to 2004 and k20z1 from 2005 to 2006 (and k20a type r in japan only). The tsx from 2004-2008 comes with a k24a2 (the best one) same hp as the k20 but more torque. Tsx 2009+ comes with k24z3 but this one doesnt have as good potential and doesnt come in manual

[@sheldonlamey7010]

RSX Type S has a K20(200HP) TSX has a K24 ( I think 190HP but with more torque than the K20. I think the K20 has a higher redline and iVTEC engages earlier giving it a wider power band. Most ppl put the K20 head on the K24 block to get everything overall.🔰👍🏾🏎️

People are sleeping on the Audi TT 1st gen. Comes with an I4 or V6 & Quattro, STILL UNDER $5K and manual! Also, high schoolers, the vehicle may be cheap, but insurance will kick your ass.
