Whiskey made the banner not me. Also why did you import a 240 to euroland? Just curious
This fucking thing is still going. Still see a lot on the road too. And built 100% in the USA. What the fuck happened?
GM didn't like that they made a better product
>tfw wrecked my sc2
Don't think we have the same motor, but I have a 05 Saturn Vue 4cyl/5spd-manual and love it. Only problem is the sunroof is a leaky sun of a bitch and the battery grounds have corroded.

you fucking nigger i just made a thread >>13944186
>>13944237
Kek, was too busy working on pastebin and correcting the route to check if someone else posted. Nice timing.
1. How does tire pressure affect drivability? I know they're massively deflated for drag and racecars, but for road cars, what does it do? Heard of people adjusting for drifting, how do?
2. Can fwd drift?
(Inb4 fwd can compete fags) , couple of my friends say it can cuz muh /vg/ but I want to know.
3. How hard is it to "bolt on a turbo". Does this kill reliability? Is it meme or mandatory?
Feel free to ask your own friend-/o/s
1) changes the contact patch and how the tire reacts to load. tire pressure lets you fine tune the dynamics of your car as long as the tire stays in the optimal temperature range. but driftfags are retarded so they probably just pump them up to reduce contact patch = easier to slide.
2) no
3) a turbo isn't a bolt on mod by any stretch of the imagination. and the second part of your question is more complicated than just yes or no. on a street car with low boost, no it shouldn't affect reliability if done properly.
so what exactly am i fucking supposed to do when im driving fast to remain safe? when car crash videos are posted everyone is an expert on what he did wrong.
but what DO I DO if i go into a corner and realize i'm going a little too fast??? you're not supposed to lift on the throttle so what, just driftking the corner? what are basic "dos and donts" of driving a canyon/country road quickly. everyone seems to be an expert on this but i must have missed that class.

>what are basic "dos and donts" of driving a canyon/country road quickly
1. Know the road extremely well. Every turn, bump, patch of worn out asphalt. Think of waking up in the middle of the night and taking a piss and going back to bed without waking up completely.
2. Know your car extremely well. What it can and can't do.
3. Drive fast and hope no one from the other direction swerves into your lane.

>>14006519
Go get a grom then!
>tfw gf wants me to sell my s2000
>Tfw really don't want to but can't come up with a good reason that doesn't sound selfish
fuck
"I don't want to"
Thank me later.
>>14004949
its simple
tell her you like it to much and to fuck off if she doesnt respect your shit
>"wants me to sell my s2000"
I assuming you're a lesbian?
>less moving parts
>still way less reliable than all others
Why
something something apex seals
>>14001310
Currently more reliable than FCA, BMW, ford, GM, Audi, VW, Mitsubishi and a bunch of others
>>14001310
your statement is false. It is more reliable, you just have to know how to maintain it.
Rotory got a bad rep because most people that bought it didn't even know they were buying something other than a piston engine. Shit should have came with a pamphlet.

Why does driving late at night help me feel like I'm something?
(Also, nighttime pics thread)
Why whenever I mention buying an Audi, BMW, Volvo, VW etc people alwayyyys say be prepared for high maintenance costs.
Yet Lexus, Toyota, Honda, people act like they dont need servicing or something.
Is it really going to cost so much more for me to own a 2006 Audi A3 compared to a 2006 Honda Civic?
>>13996637
When it breaks. And where do they have rhomboid license plates?
Yes yes it will
I bought a 2006 and 2012 gti and they're both complete pieces of shit
The cam Fowler went of the mk6 and it fucked the cams and fuel pump and VW doesn't have a "fix" for the problem
>>13996637
We aren't talking about oil changes when we say that. A brake job on a Volvo costs more than it does on a Toyota because the Volvo has better brakes. Better parts cost more money.
Also VW is complete shit, don't even include that in the same sentence as those other brands.
Hey /o/,
Junkyard bro here (owner in the dfw). Found this guy out here while doing backlogged inventory. Looked neat so I wondered if this is someth I no interesting to yall.
>>13973782

>>14001311
Big talk from a benchracing carless faggot

>fugly
bitch thats beautiful
I have
It didn't work out, we were too different
Maybe one day I'll get one just like her again
Anyone know what wheels these are? I'll post a whole bunch of fox mustangs 'til I get an answer, I guess, since I know it's /o/'s favorite car.
if you post another Foxbody Im not answering
my eyes cant take it
They just look like aftermarket FR500s to me but IDK
What's the worse car you have ever owned
Pic related is mine
It was a nice looking car but there was always something broken and the thing had an archaic 3 speed trans despite being made in 1990
The fucking thing also was slow as shit even though it had a v12
>>14004246
*worst
>>14004246
Forgot to say what the cars name and shit
It's a 90 jaguar XJS 5.3L V12
