To be honest, I'd never own a Donk, but I can understand the purpose behind them.

It's really like any other Automotive style, you're attempting to be different and using what you've got to make something of your own. Old Caprices, Monte Carlos, Crown Vics, etc are relatively common and inexpensive making them excellent cars to make into cruisers. The big wheels are a status symbol, and while I don't understand compromising the dynamics of a vehicle to that extent (can't turn at any speed faster than 25mph is usually a common problem) I can understand having something expensive and awesome to show off in front of your homies.

Or those dudes just don't give a **** about what people think and build seemingly absurd vehicles just for the laughs - who knows.

Usually, I'd be all about a slammed Miata with cool wheels.

That one's missing something though.

GT-Wing?

I know what you mean, latley that car has become very euro looking. but it's w/e.. clean i guess. just not as agressive as phill's car by any means,but still has that awkard poke/and a bit of stretch to it.

That car's current form is absolutely amazing.

The Miata looks wayyy worse when you can see how horrible the stretch looks. Someone done ****** up.

[Foolinaround]

KA's also have some inherent design flaws from the factory, and I must say that the SR seems to be more well engineered, at least for boost. It's more of a matter of opinion at this point though. My major pet Peeve with KA's is that they don't like to rev as well as SR's, which I mentioned before, and it's due in part to the fact that the KA does not have a fully balanced crank from the factory, so the motors can do really interesting things in the higher RPM range.

Eh I can argue this for days lol, but I will definitely agree about the factory crank in the KA's being a very real problem. Are you coming to the Nissan summer meet by any chance.


I love the welds on this, amongst everything else.

Nissan Summer meet? What's that? I usually don't associate with Nissan people, I'm not like a diehard Nissan guy or anything and my Nissan never runs.

Also, on the subject of welds:



I was really surprised at how well my water neck came out. Between it being Cast Aluminum and soaked in Coolant, I kind of expected it to be impossible to weld cleanly. Guess not.
