I'm sorry, but you'll get whooped badly.
N/A 5 Speeds are better matched for other N/A cars, I'm afraid.

If you get desperate to beat him in an N/A I guess you could do a few small thing's like get the head shaved, a cam or something? Extractors, if you don't already have them? Maybe head ported and polised? I dunno, just a few suggestions. Probably not worth it but because it would cost you a bit to have done.
And also in vl's there is only the rb30, or rb30et (turbo engine) and 304 or 308 or whatever it is, which is the v8. But rb30's are the only 6 cylinder in them.

Turbo your car over the week end then ask him to meet you at your local supervised legal drag strip.

Hey DEZ, im doin the turbo converion now, im nearly finished all i need is a few banjo bolts and Nuts for my exhaust and im off... Problem is i need to get a blue slip and engineers for it to be legal... so im looking at around 200 to 400 bucks there depending on the engineer.. Add that price to all my other expenses on the turbo conversion and ur looking at 2300+.. If u wanna do the turbo conversion be prepared to pay up..
IF You where to just work the motor now in NA form (eg Cam, ECU CHip, Port and Polish Etc) You will most certainly be wasting more money and you will be getting less power from wat a turbo conversion.
All i wanna say is dont waste ur money and SAVE UP!!! I understand u wanna fast car NOW but it wont happen if u dont hav the money...
My advice is save up and buy ur dream machine and in the end you will get the last laugh and past the finish line first, and you wont be stressing about how much time and money you wasted on a slow and problamatic Turbo Converted VL..
"WEN YOU RUSH THINGS, THEY TURN OUT ****"
My 2 cents

You aren't gonna win, and most likely you will have trouble taking off anyway.
Accept that fact that he will munch you fair and square. Nothing to be ashamed about.

Thats 114kw at the engine. Doesn't matter what trans is bolted on to it. The actual output at the wheels is a bit less than that.
Man your posts are really hard on the eyes. I'm shedding tears of blood here...

You'll most likely win in looks anyway, because Nissan Exas are f***ing ugly.
