>i think it would be possible to create ~0.1-0.2 bar pressure with electric fans

It is, Audi are experimenting with it. They are very expensive to get the required airflow for even a modestly sized engine though and that's why Audi are looking to use them as infill around the conventional turbo.

everyone will tell you buying a new car is not a good idea. It really isn't

but if you're in the rust belt and you're going to baby rustproof this car forever then go for it since that's the only reason I'd go for a new car myself, a truly rust-free car.

FUCK NO TO THE SENTRA THOUGH.

dunno if Nissan has stepped up their game but fuck the sentra. My dad had one and it was bad bad bad. He has an Elantra now and that's very decent so imagine how bad the Sentra must have been

Take a look at the new gen Mazda3 and learn to drive stick.

>>17096061
Why shouldn't I get a new car? What if I can afford it?

If not the Sentra, what should I get then?

>>17096069
I don't really like how the Mazda3 looks.

slower than the model s and is nothing more than vaporware.

This looks like what Lincoln tried to do in the recent years, but after catering to geriatrics for ever they numbed it up and failed miserably.

Anything with a six figure pricetag and less range than a $15k shitbox.

Any manufacturer with identical models that require a software package to unlock performance.

Lets be honest, cars were used as an extension to nationalistic dickwaving long before the internet existed.

Other than the Saab 900, what other cars used this engine layout?

>>17093410
I think there was a Chevy or Chrysler back in the 80s that did

me

i only stop at the ones where it makes sense to stop. i just roll past the ones where the road is straight and there shouldn't be one. plus i've been living here for over a decade and know the streets like the back of my hand, and where the cops can sit respectively

Literally everyone you nigger

Power steering broke last weekend on my Lincoln

Don't fix, be a man!

mr2 based on the fact that miatas are played out and need a lot of bracing. mr2 probably does too, but at least it's not a miata. plus mr is unique.

if you get an automatic just kys

As a fresh MRS owner the piston rings were fine. It was all because of precats having suicide pact with the 1zz. They are brittle and tend to break, small particles get sucked into the engine thanks to VVTI and they damage piston rings and start damaging pistons and cylinders.

Most people gut the precats almost instantly, especially now.

MRS handling is subline, it being MR it loves tight corners and hairpins. Aftermarket isn't as good as miat tho, which is also a great handling machine.

Since you're tall first mods you want to make are getting a smaller steering wheel for MRS. I'm 180cm and even I feel a bit cramped. The pedals, steering and gearbox is fantastic.
If you want one get post facelift:
less deadly precats
frame stiffening
LSD
6 speed manual ready to take 2zz

Precats are a problem for all MRS's and cars that have it. It is an easy remove tho. Hardest part is securing a 22mm o2 socket.

Second problem is shocks dying at around 150k km (120k miles roughly)

Honestly a great car, get it. I reccomend finding or adding aftermarket exaust since you'll hear a lot of road noise and outside noise, and rather have that sound nice.

Beware: Speakers are shit and believe the "lol can't even carry a tampon in mrs storage space" but take the last with a grain of salt.

Check out spyder communities and forums, lots of info and buyers guides.

As for mods I mentioned exaust and smaller steering wheel.
I'd say focus on lightening the car with lightweight wheels good tyres, improved suspension and frame stiffening. It has plenty of power.

Ignore most of 4chan posts it's mostly benchracing and busriding.

MRS bein a convertable needs bracin too. Hardtop helps.

>>17091429
forgot to mention: precat failure is pretty rare, but it is a question of not if but when.

I don't understand why people hate Ford. I drive a Honda but I someday want to get a Ford. Ford is good.

Yeah. I hate GM because they played Jewish tricks with GMAC and helped ruin USDM cars, bought Saab and ruined it, and use OnStar so CIA niggers can hack your car for you.

There really are no redeeming qualities for GM

>>17087752
It's not that I can't deal, it's that 90% of the this thread will most likely be people that have only black ice since it's that goddamn popular.

I forget what they're called but I have a bag of what looks like smallish white gravel. It was branded as magic rocks that absorb bad smells.

Actually works better than you'd think. I keep it under the driver's seat and then that way I don't need to contemplate fake car smells.
