Is 108 inch wheelbase, 190 inch length, and 71 inch width too big to be a car capable of mid night club?
>>15397253
Smokey here
yes
>>15397304
Yes
>>15397253
Is that real?
What was this a Prelude to
the end of that market segment
>>15396258
huh
>>15396258
It's the opposite, it was only the beginning of the now massive market segment that is tricking boy racers/uninformed people into thinking FWD cars are sporty or fast
Remember the super-cool self powered cars that were going to be affordable for only 8k? as long as you send them a non-refundable deposit? Remember the Elio? What a scam.
rip

>people paying ANYthing for the POSSIBLITY of a car
they get what they deserve
>>15395888
What sane person anywhere thought the Elio was anything other than Vaporwear?
l'm in the unfortunate-fortunate situation of having something in my clutch assembly broken and will replace the whole clutch kit (and flywheel if sensible) while it's open.
And this brings me to the problem. l don't feel like just buying another OEM set but as my car is bone stock otherwise it feels like overkill to get something aftermarket. My car can give 190HP and l'd like to lift it close to 300HP but not much above that. l also want to casually track my car. So would it make sense to get some "stage 1" clutch?
How about switching into a slightly lighter flywheel?
The 2ZZ-GE engine revs up to near 9k so l don't know if a more responsive flywheel would be in place here.
thx4reading senpai shit nigga
>>15394864
If you think you'll be making that power, as in really, not just three CAIs duct taped together, then yeah, go for the clutch.
It'll feel more like an on-off switch though.
>>15394864
"stage 1" as in a stage 1 exedy clutch is going to feel very close to OEM since its just a slightly beefier organic disk. It might not even be rated for 300 crank so you'd wanna double check that before buying.
And since you plan on doing other mods, put a light weight flywheel in there while you have it apart. I have a caffenieted engine as well that revs to 9k and I have a 9 lb flywheel. I can build revs a little quicker than it use to
>"stage 1"
I fucking hate this meme
What car has the worst tailgators, and why is it the dodge ram?
Dodge dealerships only sell to customers that are below a specific IQ specified by the manufacturer
>>15393623
Pretty sure this is actually a thing.
>>15393623
They're called white trash and niggers, which is a majority of dodge owners

And I'm afraid to load too much the back tire if I carry sidebags, rucksack and tent all in the back.

Loading the back is the way to go, though

Go test drive an EV or rent one.
Once you have driven a modern EV. You will go back to your gasoline car and wish it was electric. You'll think your car's throttle response times are all school bus slow compared to a LEAF's(a fucking leaf).
You'll wonder if your car was always that loud, after being in an EV.
Every little vibration from the gasoline engine will be noticed negatively by you.

>he doesn't enjoy that diesel knock and tarbo roar
Normies pls.

you're next.
battery ev buses with 250 mile ranges are already out.

I can't get a beater electric car with 35+ mpg for $800 though
why did detroit diesel die
>>15402299
Mercedes.
>>15402299
2 stroke diesels couldn't pass newer emission standards
>>15402299
They haven't.
I dont understand why anyone would want to buy a new car?
I mean it was understandable before because the 60s-80s commuter cars were kinda garbage
but in the 90s and 00s we kind of got that shit down pat
I feel like everything modern is just an inferior version of a car from the 90s
you can get better MPG and reliability from the 90s
you can get something driver oriented and fun to drive from the 90s
Most of these cars don't break the bank, not even in repairs
I just don't get this man. Modern cars just seem kind of shitty.
>inb4 can i have some of that pizza
No, shut the fuck up.
>>15401900
Mechanically inept vehicle owners prefer new cars for their warranty. Being responsible for the operating condition of a vehicle scares the fuck out of a lot of people.
>>15401949
I buy new because I don't want someone else's garbage.
I'm far from inept when it comes to mechanical repair and general car care.
Anyone ever remove this shit?
Some people say it lets you hear the engine more, some people say it won't. Some people say if you remove it the paint will melt, some people say its fine.
Whats the deal?
>>15401614
Yes have removed it from several cars, there is probably a risk to yourr paint but, my wrx has never had one and ive done 35k kms since i bought it, ive made the turbo glow bright red and my paint is fine, my younger brother has a gtst that doesnt have that protective layer and the paints good, why do you want to remove it?
I bought a 1995 Mustang V6 with that thing removed, there are heat bubbles on the paint because of it. Don't be stupid, just leave it on there.
>>15401644
Want to hear more engine noise in the cabin.
>>15401694
Is there anything else I can do to hear the engine more that won't wreck my car then?
I should say it's a nice sounding engine but not particularly powerful, so I'm not sure if it would even get hot enough to damage the paint.
Gunna end up buying a Hyundai Tiburon tomorrow. What are some hardships to be expected?
being seen in a pile of korean garbage.
>>15397746
Mostly this.
No idea why people fall for the korea meme when you can buy cheap shitbox cars from other countries.
>>15397750
Because the car drove rather well and Hyundai isn't shit tier anymore? I asked for common problems like shit that is hard to maintain ie jap trash sparkplug placement. All cars are getting to be pretty equal in reliability.
What is your opinion on the Bugatti Veyron?
Is it still the king of street legal cars?

Looks like a R8 with a bodykit. Other hypercars are quicker and faster.

It's a richman's penis, that is it. It's objectively a terrible driver's car.
