Those are funny ways of spelling 'bus pass' and 'shitbox'

out of 100 /o/ posters maybe 5 have their own cars/motorcycles. Out of those 5 maybe 1 has a car/bike worth over $10k.

What is /o/'s opinion on egr? Do diesel cars perform better with or without it?
I have a 95's mercedes whose egr was blocked on purpose by the previous owner. Should I have it back working?

egr is just an emissions thing
they reduce power because they heat up the intake temperature

If you live in a place with emissions tsting, probably.

This isnt really a miata thread but the ND my friend drives got me thinking of this.
I seem to have more fun in lightweight cars. Been in some powerful heavy muscle cars, GT, SS Chargers also used to drive my brothers ford lighting which was factory supercharged.
They where great cars but I feel like you get a beter driving experience on the road with a lightweight smaller car
TLDR: Lightweight cars = more fun

this has been known for a long time.
thing is people with masculinity issues see lightweight fun cars as gay/weak/girly.
Also smaller lightweight cars aren't really that practical to DD.
That being said most people (being Americans) care about stoplight to stoplight racing and highway pulls so small nimble low hp cars like the miata, frs and such does not matter to them.

Thats the only metric that matters on daily driving. Nothing else.

>>17150063
That's a shame that more people don't give lightweight cars a shot. think they would be genuinely surprised at how much they enjoy it

the recall was issued re: a specific ball joint manufacturer
>muh memes
>>
>>17149819
isn't it because of a flawed design? Like the way the ball joints are positioned the weight of the truck is pulling them apart more than its pushing them together. But I'm just regurgitating something I read on some Tacoma forum

Purchasing a brand new GTR next week, wondering if it's worth OR waste of money to upgrade to the track edition from the premium.
Thoughts?

That's the NISMO edition though, not the track.

Put it in this to create the perfect mustang
Talk me out of buying an imported MIV supra for 17k.
Or should I get a GTR for 20k?
Or should I just kill myself for attempting to buy a car owned by a yobbo

Dumb little nitpick but why is it that the rain/water physics is 10x better than Forza's?
>>
>>17147805
Because everything else is 10x worse.
They focused on selling the game with bullshots, rain effects help with that.
>>
>>17147618
It might be comfy but it sucks in literally every other way.

The EK9 was the last good Civic, the S2000 was the last good Honda. They can't even do well in motorsports anymore, with Honda engines being the worst both in IndyCar and F1.
The new Type R is fast at least, but god damn is it ugly and bloated.

I've bought a porsche 924 from1980, 100,000 km, completely busted paint, interiors, and it stinks.The engine doesn't work. I've paid 100$
Now. I have 0 experience on working on cars. I don't know what to do and why it doesn't work.
HOW CAN I FIX IT?
(i don't care about the look, i just want to reapir the engine).
