well, the KA was always fun with the right setup. You could always step on the gas, and it will spin tires. No top end at all. But because I wanted to look cool and drive hard, 18's aren't practical on 140whp. KA's are perfect with a 16 inch rim and 205 50's. Sr's can spin anything depending on boost.

I've always wanted a coupe with a kouki s14 front end on it. I finally found a good deal, sold the zenki, and picked up a sr'd coupe. Sr's are really fun if you drive them hard. People complain about boost on these motors, but I find the challenge a lot more fun since I'm not in FD competing with 900hp NA motors. You just need to learn to compensate.

NA= Reaction
BOOSTED= Anticipation
My setup depending on if I go 5 lug or not will probably be 17x10s with either 225s or 215s lol. I guess I'll be running a ton of tire pressure if that happens. Like I said earlier though I plan on getting an SR sometime while I'm out here in Texas. And ya I know what you mean, I'll always think drivers who run smaller displacement/boosted setups are the best drivers regardless of what the points or judges say.
