Well it all depends on your particular driving habits. For the most part, you'd want any car that came with the SR engine: G20, 91-94 Sentra SE-R, NX2K, 95-98 200SX SE-R, 98-01 Sentra SE. Those would be your best choices since they come with the SR engine. With that engine in mind, you could eventually turbo it later, or you could easily swap in the SR20DET engine.
Since you're looking for some decent punch, I'd stay away from the 1.6L (GA) engine. It does have potential, but in its current state (aftermarket wise) it can't compete with the SR. There are several individuals who are making progress though, so in the near future we may gain some ground.
Or if you're really bold, you could easily find an early 90s 300zx since it has quite a bit of punch stock. However, just like the 3000gt, maintenance is going to cost an arm and a leg
