What's the best "bang for your buck" power mod?
Pic related, it's a downpipe
>>14959541
do they really need all that fucking shit on a pipe with 2 bends
>>14959596
It's just bungs for sensors, a resonator or cat, a mounting bracket, and a flex joint.
Hey /o/, what up
Earlier today i shutted off the engine after a relatively short drive (>15km ) and the electric fan kept spinning and spinning, although the engine was at normal operating temp, and i eventually made it stop by disconnecting the battery. My car is a 2006 Fiat Palio Weekend 1.7 TD (The engine is fiat's indestructible 1.7 diesel with a mechanical axial pump and indirect injection, so the only electrics usually seen in the engine that are related to it is the shutoff valve of the pump itself)
Also, not too long ago the plastic case on which the gauge...

>Fiat
Just thrash it already kid
>engine fan still working when i shut down
>might be doing something important
>worst that could happen if i let it run is dead battery
>proceed to disconnect fan because fuck my car
>>14959548
The only thing fucked if i disconnected it was the radio.
The fan kept spinning like 4 straight minutes, so there was nothing to do but what i did.
Also, like i said, no computer, no reset, everything is mechanical.
Also, the electrics have proven to be extremely unreliable, with things like the engine locking failing on with the car having less than 60k miles.
Why is the civic so popular, particularly the 90's generations?
Cheap to buy, babbys first car, I'll smoke you in my red EG hatch/thread
Cheap
Tons of aftermarket
Fun manual
Mpgs and high revs
Vape fags and fart cans
>just cleaned your car and you need to go somewhere but you don't want to get it dirty
You know that feel, senpai?
>just washed and waxed car

Fuck you.
Right when I got home I sprayed it off with the garden hose to get all the road grime off, but still, fuck you.

What's your oppinion on forking out 2-3 grand to rent a supercar for the weekend, /o/?
>>14959114
Waste of money
>>14959114
>>14959120
complete waste of money
>>14959114
Why dont you spend that money and make your own car fast?
Recently picked up this guy here. Paint is rather rough, will be taking it to shop soon to get repainted. I'm thinking about just keeping it red, but I also think a race blue could look really nice.
What do you guys think?
Also gotta look good with the white/creme/whatever interior, pic related. Excuse the mess of head units.
Here's one of the pics that made me consider the blue, although I don't know if it will look as good with my interior, looks really nice with the all black interior.
Also I know that's a 952 but you know, they look the same enough
>>14959003
Guards red or kill yourself
I rarely see anything pre-muscle car era on here. let alone anything traditional. Model A is bea desu senpai.
I gave your mum my hot rod m8, oi oi.

What would you do to this guy?
Send the link to that post to his insurance.
Ask him what he meant by river
Probably a puddle but still. 5 years in the Gulag.
Let's have a thread for people who are deciding between two or more vehicles. Post what you are looking at, what your needs are, or just help others decide.
Pic related is what I narrowed it down to, at the moment.

VW is shit. Only a retard pays 10-13k on a kia/hyundai. That chevy is going to depreciate fast and hard. If you must buy one of those boring ass women cars the Mazda is the clear choice.
>>14958658
None. Shut up and buy a civic for <5k
>>14958658
these are all shit but I'd get the mazda
Is there a good reason not to buy an LS400?

>>14958338
NOT
FAST
I want my wife to drive one but she thinks they're ugly. It doesn't help that she hates white and silver cars... and sedans

Don't listen to the people who say foxbody. A person new to a manuel clutch is gonna have a bad time.

Why did asymmetrical cars never catch on?
Asymmetry is ugly
>>14958115
>why do cars that have had a stroke never caught on
because they have a stroke.
because they look fucking stupid.
What do you guys think of the Scion iA?
I'm about to finish college and am thinking of buying a new car. I heard these handle and drive pretty good and get great MPG's, and are cheap. I know they're basically Mazda 2s.
>>14958036
One of my coworkers bought one and is thinking of modding the shit out of it for some godawful reason.
All i can say is that its cramped and slow compared to my 12 Civic
>>14958036
I like mazdur but make sure to check out the Fit (and I guess maybe the Fiesta if you wanna be thorough).
>>14958092
>Fiesta
Ford as a whole is completely unreliable. Might as well go buy a Chrysler.
Should i get a 350z living on the east coast? How are they with salt and rust
Get a 370 instead
Get a 390 instead
Get a 410 instead
