I'm in the market for a new car. Currently driving a 11 Subaru Impreza OBS 5 Speed, and I've been wanting to move more into performance for cars. Ive grown a liking towards the MK4 GTIs, because they are respectively good cars, and quite cheap.
My budget is $6,000, and I have found quite a bit of well built GTIs (more so the 1.8's) for a great price..that would leave me with at least $1,000 to spend on more upgrades or repairs for the car.
As most know, the 1.8's are 4-cylinder 5 speeds with a turbo, and the VR 6 is 6 cylinder, usually 6 speed,... Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Unless you like throwing away money to keep a 10-15 year old shitbox from breaking down (which will happen very often) or you like seeing your gauge cluster lit up like a Christmas tree at all times, don't bother with either.
When I had rotas on my wrx I needed new lug nuts. You might need "tuner" lug nuts because the part that goes up against the wheel comes in different angles.
Anyone here familiar with 4L60e's? Whenever the torque converter goes into lockup, my RPMs sink like a rock and no matter how much gas I give the cunt I can't get it above about 1700 and you can hear how badly the engine is struggling by the deep exhaust note. However if I lightly tap the brake enough to engage the brake switch which unlocks the torque converter, my engine shoots up to 2500+ rpm and suddenly runs like a dream. Runs great in every gear until lockup occurs.
/o/ I have this 03 Ford Explorer Sport Trac that my grandpa gave me in november, but its in need of loads of work/repair and I simply don't have the money (college is expensive). Should I just get rid of it? Is it really worth much? If I were to sell it, what could I realistically get for it? What should I do here? First time posting on /o/ btw Also have more pics
>>14987933 It either needs a new alternator or a new battery, and has a new one of whichever is operable. I don't remember. One of the tires goes flat in 10 minutes of filling it, it had mice living in it and through the air system, smells like rat piss and shit.
A couple weeks ago it flooded in Houston, TX 20inches over night.
I drove through high water in my girlfriends car trying to find higher ground as our street was getting worse.
The car stalled out of course, I didn't realize that the intake was from the ground up.
We got it fixed at a shop and continued our vacation.
Now heres the problem.
Apparently the car has begun to leak "lots of oil" -girlfriend. I told her to take it to a shop so they can check if the filter or plug was loose.... Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>14987754 Cars are getting more boring to drive so they try to make it look exciting and "dynamic".
The small windows are the effect of pedestrian crash standards. They have to raise the hood to have clearance above the engine, this raises the beltline, creating small windows.

>>14987460 Take pictures, call insurance, hopefully you got his. As long as you have the plate, if he is being difficult your insurance will work with you to make it right, especially because if he's not working with you he seems guilty.
Is the LS400 a shitbox? they are everywhere and cheap but the 1uz-fe is a respectable platform, better than any other japanese engine at the same price.
