I've built a few of these cars on the cheap and ran with the EX Redshift carl. Chris never drove mine, but at a local event was able to stay on the same half second with his championship car (when he co drove it with the previous-previous owner).

I built the first DX for $2700 and an Si for less than that (transfered over the parts)..

It can be done..Just look around on the forums and ebay for "used" parts...
