DD opinions...

[TkrPerformance]

my dad has dd his miata since he bought it in 1997. it is a great little car he dives it 60+ miles a day to and from work. i like driving it and have no problems fitting in it and staying in the car for a good while and i am 6'2". they are a little noisy but noth sound deadner did not fix. you can get a bolt in kit for ford or chevy v8's for not to much

try a 95+ nissan 240sx? i have never driven a rwd car but driving the Tundra around in winter is quite easy, even in rough snow. the truck was only rwd to. I'm not sure about what the stock 240sx gets on the mpg's, but im sure it's better than our cars ;)

Thanks for the opinions guys, if I got a 240 naturally I would have to put an SR20 in it....or go all the way with a complete R34 GTR conversion.

And that would be the end of my savings account.

On the other hand, a RWD 4G63 only takes a Dodge D50 transmission ~$150

I am also a big fatass, but I prefer being in a tight car.

a kid at my school has a 240sx silvia conversion with an sr20 thats putting 300hp to the wheels. it's pretty sweet and would make a fun daily driver

The problem with DD is that you really shouldn't touch them performance wise in my opinion.
At least in my experience, everything becomes a little more unreliable when I touch it.
Either that or have a backup car for when it does break.

Remember you only have two options to pick from, Performance, Cheap, Reliable

I am using a truck for a DD and I like driving around in it EXEPT for the 15mpg

I am looking for something that I can take on long trips and hoping it gets above 20mpg

Maybe an older BMW...

However a hatch of some sort wouldn't be bad but not a VW
a Mirage wouldn't be too bad either

What would be good to take on long trips?

Evo. Best DD I've ever ever ever had. Keep it very mildly modded and in good running shape and it'll be nice back for a long long time.

Evos are still relatively new and probably out of his budget comparing it to what he was looking at. Who knows if Evos will be any more reliable than dsms when they are over 10 years old.

Except for the intermittent freeze plug blowing out, interior wire corrosion,and pulley destruction right? :D

I'm all in favor of DDs.....

But you know what they say, anything more than a handful........
