In America, where muh V8 still reigns supreme

yes pls
its time (American) automakers made good engines instead of big ones
tl;dr; 2005 STi with a spun rod bearing. Should I buy a short block? What one? OEM? What other parts are typically needed? Turbo? Oil shit? Should I get the block worked on and replace the internals? I tried looking at the big subie forums, but its all just circle jerking.
Did you "tune" this engine before this happened
>>14134482
be a man and swap a new FA engine from a jdm levorg or a new WRX
you can do it OP
I trust in you
>>14134541
No.
Guy is selling his 89 Burban for 750$ obo. He doesn't have 3rd apparently, but apparently it has a CUCV brush guard, roof rack, barn doors, power windows, and can visor.
Should I go for it, and should I Jew him down?
Pic unrelated, it's my friends car
Seems like a good deal t'bh even if you're not handy or don't have a comfy garage you can probably get a warranted transmission professionally put in for $1000 and there you go. Since it's only got 3rd out so far you can even test drive it enough to make sure nothing ELSE is fucked up plus get it wherever you need it to be to get fixed with no towing involved. A lot of /o/tists would probably just drive it with no 3rd.
>>14133995
Well it's 3hrs from my house (Ma -> Ct) but my friend would tow it if all else fails
I may go, but money's tight so that's why I asked for offers I should ask him
why would a suburban want a roof rack
what cant you fit in THAT trunk?
You know when you buy a new car or get interested in one you start seeing(noticing) it everywhere on the road?
That didnt happen to me. I live in new england and see zero of these things(any model) out on the road
I wonder why...
I drive a Toyota Avalon and never see them on the road.
>people are actually attracted to GM's constant copypasta
absolute fucking disgust
Got a call from my brother saying he wrecked his winter car and if I'd trade my second car for his 1998 BMW 328i. The clutch is going out but he's including the replacement part/kit. so that's the one major thing I'd have to do to it.
How reliable are these things if I got that fixed? The car I'd be trading on my end is an 85 Nissan Stanza Liftback that needs nothing and is basically mint.
bump?
1:1 trade?
>>14133847
You never see Stanzas, 3 series are a dime a dozen. Also, my aunt has has her 328 for a long ass time and she says it has became a money pit. She only drives her RX now.
how comfy is it bros? I'm getting my first this weekend.
me too thanks
>>14133739
Depends on what it is
its allright. not as comfy as this

is this legit /o/?
>>14133348
Yeah Bro you should pay whatever it takes to get in on that. Might as well sell your car now since you'll have a McLaren in no time and you can do the work from home anyway.
At this point I cant tell if everyone on /o/ is a shitposter or if I just hang out with actual idiots.
Seems legit to me bud
I'd let godzilla fuck me. https://youtu.be/Yrf9afXWYpM?t=1m20s
In terms of performance I respect what Nissan has done with the GT-Rs but the cars look like shit. The lines are just horrible. Pininfarina we need you.
>>14132654
Sounds very "meh". Tbh a G37 with a good exhaust sounds nicer.
>>14132654
Can you handle its hot exhaust pipes going up your ass which will then roast your anus to big intestine completely?
What is the sexiest car of all time and why is it the 1977 Pontiac Trans Am?
>>14132444
I bet you think mullets are the best hair style too?
My Z pisses in your Trans am's intake, fuck off queer.
Go ahead and benchrace. I've owned more vehicles than you've seen years, and I was thoroughly underwhelmed by the Trans am. The interior is 90s KIA tier too.
They are what got me interested in sports coupes again, but they are a letdown in reality. And I am a Pontiac fanboi. The 370z blew the Trans am away in the feels dept, that's why I bought one instead.
The 370z has Jap class with muscle acceleration, and the handling characteristics you'd expect from a traditional two seat rwd...

No :(
I just grew up around the car and recently got one passed down to me and I love it so much.
I'm going crazy comparing two cars from two totally different segments though they both share the same goal: fun
Cost isn't a concern, this is not a daily
>>14132396
Then buy used?
If you have a lot of straight-line/highway driving then Camaro, if not Miata
>>14132400
Also this
>>14132396
Put down the bong Frosty
What's the most fun manual car (not Miata) I could get under 4k? Something that won't break down before I bring it back home.
Define "fun". Something on the sticky should suit your needs.
If you can find an FX16 Corolla, that car is fun as all fuck to drive
Miata desu senpai
im looking for a project to restore with my dad, what do you guys think?

engine
he says the carb needs tuning and the electric fan doesnt work
>>14131619
>electric fan not working
He would of figured this out after cooking it first
>carb needs tuning
carb needs to be rebuilt
Can you do these things? can you restore this car to a satisfactory level? Will you enjoy the end result? Can you afford to fix the car? how often can you buy parts for it?
Is Mercedes good?
Thinking of picking up a cla 300
sad thing that in post 2010 /o/ you can never be sure if someone is shitposting or actually being serious
>>14130192
Mercedes Mechanic here.
I can assure you, with absolute certainty that thinking is in fact a good choice.
