Nissan GA14DE (Sunny, Almera) does seem a good bet. Cheap, plentiful and have a decent bit of poke considering.

205 xs is not a bad bet either, I used to auto test a 1990 one of these cars. Earlyones had twin carbs.

Sorry I was just thinking all standard cars were excepted.
Metro gti isn't a bad suggestion if you could find 1.

id either buy 1.4 metroid and fit the 1.8 motor, or find an ax gti and fit a vtr 1.6 8v. just grind the numbers off.

as mentioned - phase 1 106 xsi (1.4 mpi) 100hp
you wont get much better combined with a half decent chassis.

err nope as thats still a k series....

so is the honda engine.. k-series :-/ -Two versions of Honda's i-VTEC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-VTEC#i-VTEC) system can be found on K series engines

so i'm guessing the rules are stricter than basically 1.4 stock. cos an old square rover 414si(???) or similar, had 105-110hp & if it was stripped out & lowered, would be an excellent little oval racer, with its wide footprint, so i'm guessing there is more to it.

the k series is not a honda engine inn any way, it was designed by rover with government money in the 80's. not one part is honda. i-vtec is not in the k, vvc works similarly but is in no way related.
