and reliability goes down the drain when people slap on huge single turbos without a tune. My FD dynoed 480rwhp with a tune at 20lbs of boost on a hks t51 single turbo.
Car had over 100k miles when I sold it.

Not to mention it was the most exotic looking of all affordable sports cars back then. All that car needs are design & metal quality updates, it doesnt even need a full redesign and it's 21 years old in design. IMHO It's the most timeless affordable sports car in recent history.
