Lemme tell you now. ANYTHING can happen. I picked up a GSX shell for $500. With $12k I could about have my project done right now! lol. You can pick up an Eclipse GSX or pick up a plymouth laser (awd model) or eagle talon (awd model). If you're forced to go with single axel power, pick up a ford thunderbird Turbo Coupe. It has the 2.3L turbo engine and they make some dawm good power off of stock components. I've seen a fellow run low 10s with a slightly modified engine, and a small holset turbo.

I'm looking for a newer car.. AWD preferably. Evo VIII and IX are quite expensive, so any other suggestions?

You aren't going to find anything "newer" for cheap that is awd. At least I can't think of anything. What's your big deal about wanting "newer" anyways? You're going to be doing an engine build anyways right?

I can only do so much on the engine on my own, not the most experienced mechanic. My brother is really good with engines, might give me a hand.
