Buy a motorcycle instead then realise that no matter what you buy your autism will always repel women.

you dont want a 2017 as an off grid vehicle. you want something with as few electronics as possible. get an old k1500 with a carbbed 350.

Off what grid? What point of putting up a tent and throwing a fishing rod requires an SUV?

>>17790679
ok a truck than?

If you have to ask, you aren't ready to do an engine swap.

probably over $2000 since you will have to get a shop to do it

>>17790648
why do i need a shop to do it?

>>17790420
It should run without the cover, I've done it before, is there a safety switch? a ground?

Not that i see, i saw videos where they had it running with the cover off to but mine dont. And even with the cover back on it wont start

I pay 50 a month for my miata, and even that's a lot. Doesn't include collision on my part tho

>>17790333
Just insurance, or are you including monthly taxes/fees, fuel costs and maintenance?

I never paid attention because I have an abundance of money and live well below my means as a consequence of having no social life and no interest in things that cost money that do not go VROOM

We shall all ignore it BECAUSE it's a fraud

----it's a bike on 4 wheels----

-----its a bike with a V8----

----bike performance cannot be compared to car----

THEY DUN FUKK'D

Bikes are two wheeled, mid engined, use the engine as a stressed member of the frame, and the front suspension for steering.

That is an open wheel racecar.

where the fuck is Climbkhana

Don't do anything until you actually get some driving experience, remember to keep to the speed limits too

>>17789983
I've been driving my dad's car for a couple years before so I've got experience, but this is the first car that I can call mine so I'd like to spend some money on it to make it drive as best as possible

>>17789994
yeah but first you gotta learn how it drives to determine what areas to improve. follow /o/'s "advice" and you're liable to ruin the car for yourself.

They're not particularly good and you can get better cars for the price

>>17789855
Owned one, loved it, Big W202 chassis fan.
Transmission could die at any moment ($3k to fix) , you can get a Lexus Is300 for the price and get a much better car.

>>17789855
One day on the stop lights someone will roll up beside you in an w140 s600 and look all smug at you. Part of you will die that day and you will never recover after realizing the fact that you bought a poor man's w140 lookalike.

Pic unrelated btw

#boostboyz turbo LS swamp it or 2 jz putting the power to the ground taking the shitty v8 to the pound.. Ahaha

>>17789731
Why the fuck would you tell them what happened

You say that driving was your means to work but your car broke down. You have no alternative transport

>>17789770
this; more details is more story you have to remember and fabricate later. keep it simple, stupid.

>asking for Subarus

Subaru guys correct me because I'm going off of what I read in 2007, so I'm more than likely wrong. It's because the engine comes stock with a bypass valve that recirculates the pressure back into the intake system when you let off the throttle. A regular BOV goes straight out.

The fuckery comes due to where the MAF is placed on Subbies, this fucks hard with the ECU when you have a BOV installed and makes your ECU cause your engine to run rich for a split second.

Again, correct me if I'm wrong.

Eh bad or not sound is too orgasmic to not install it

How much expendable income to you have? Is it enough to be $1000 to death when issues start? If no, get a Volvo or a subie

Are you saying I should have $1k put aside just in case if something were to go wrong? if so yes. Also even though I want to work on it myself, if I were to run into problems i have a few euro indy shops in my city.

Also FCP Euro is based in my city as well so that helps a lot.

pic related is the car for I'm interested in.

>>17789543

Good choice.
