Would pic related be a good first car?
Anyone have any experience driving one?
>>14667873
I had one as a first car, ~10 years ago.
It's fine, if you can find the parts for it. Decent on gas, easy enough to fix most problems yourself, reliable enough engine & transmission to get you from A to B.
Don't modify it (at least not the engine/trans); you'll be jumping down a rabbit hole of bullshit. Get a new suspension if you want, but if you start fucking with the boost, you're going to have to start learning about engine internals, and the transmission isn't super beefy.

Thank you (:
What is a decent price to pay for one?
Someone is selling one around my area for $3,200.

Can we get an vintage car wallpaper thread with backstories going on in here?

I think most responses are going to be like this. Most people dont know the back story to their papes.
Spoon tuned Civic EK9 Type R and an ae86 tofumobile
Original drawing was found in the initial D manga and was black and white, this was coloured in by some faggot on the internet
Keep posting Anons. It's always good to learn something new!

Sorry, quoted wrong.
so /o/ should i make a gamble on this volvo 240 wagon only $500 but has some electrical problem owner is unsure says he has no power to anything . also any other 240 owners here know of common electrical problems on these i owned a 83 240 in the past and loved it. Im thinking this could be ground issue
>>14667505
>only $500 but has some electrical problem owner is unsure says he has no power to anything .
If you can't fix it that's $500 down the drain. I wouldn't bother with cars that start out with fucked electrics. It could have been water damage.
>>14667511
he said he was his daily and it quit on him recently and he just needs it gone only 158k
these cars always have electrical problems, but they are rarely disastrous. It looks like an early 80s, so check for rust. The most common reason for a no star is a fuel pump relay and they are about $50 new and 5 mins install. I would take the risk because wagon.
Hey guys, so Im about to go out and buy a 99 jeep wrangler (pic pretty much the same) and was wondering what i might have to lookout for here in the near future, under the hoodwise. Ive never owned a jeep before so im kinda in the dark haha...
Maybe you should've gone and looked that up before making the seemingly final decision to buy one.
>>14667313
Just don't. They are horribly unreliable and not built well.

Use a MM to check for voltages?
>>14667191
It's like the motion of the lock is physically blocked from going past run, I don't think there's anything that usually blocks that.

Super GT was by far my favorite SA car. I hate the new one.
What is a good dirtbike for a beginner? I am 5'7" if that matters.
>>14667046
125 or 250cc. 400+ cc is for people who know what they are doing. also your height might be an issue for a 400
>>14667046
What's your weight? Doesn't have to be exact.

I HAVE A GLORIOUS IDEA!
How feasible would making an offroad Mitzi Mirage?
Im thinking:
>Lifted like an american pickup maybe 8"
>Deep ridge offroad tires and Heavy duty alloys
>A decent turbo
>Tank extension into interior rear
>Remove rear seats
>Use panels or wood to flatten rear seat area like a station wagon
>Make it tough and fats...

Depends, how much money do you have?
>>14666539
lets say i save up for a project of 15k?
Lets presume i have the equipment and access to the metals i need and 15k to spend on parts. Whaddayasay gents?
Looks like a Jaguar F-Type hatchback. At least they didn't screw it up all to much and didn't make it as disgusting as the Baleno.

They're not going to sell that in the US, are they?
Reminds me of those Mercedes B Class abominations. Never knew they existed until I saw one with Canadian plates. I understand why they don't sell them in the US. Same reason why the Sprinters are badged as Freightliners now. Gotta protect that badgewhore status.

So you get either one of the best engines ever made (BEAMS)
A POS 2jz with no turbos and the same power as the beams.
Or an engine that is junk, makes as much power as a 4age, and takes mods less reliably.
