6. Glow shit, well at least you got that part right
7. Which garbage shitty wheels are those ?


PS I wasnt being mean in my first post, you chose a shitty engine, thats not my fault, dont get mad that I called you on it.
First off let me just applaud your use of great adjectives....

. My rad is not busted, it's brand new
.Explain to me how my tubular manifold is "shitty" because its not name brand?
. Why is my fmic sorry, it's not brand new...woopty fuckin doo.

Yeahhh, not everyone can afford top of the line shit.

Good day sir.

Guy in Miami running a 700+hp ka-t w/ a/c running a cxracing rad for over a year daily driven. Hasnt had any problems yet. Some ebay stuff isnt what it use to be. I've seen plenty of people running them without problems. Gotta give in sometime and try one out but if you just need a piece of mind you can spend another hundred and get a koyo.

Agreed with some ppl that you could have just turbo'ed the ka.

Also, i think my car was cleaner when i first got mine. Nice to get compliments an all but if your gonna beat on the car it isnt really worth it for it to be really clean because your just worry about it all the time.

Anyways GL with the build.

It looks pretty cheap, so i'd bet theres not much difference between when its bolted on, or just sitting there.

hell yea man, looks good.

tommy, so you have evidence that, that strut bar does not perform as well as any other one? As far as koyo's go, they are the biggest piece of shit radiators, i have personally had two fair and have seen another one leak the second it was pressurized. i see no point buying something just for the name. if its a detrimental part then yes but simple shit is nice to save some cash and put it somewere else more needed.
