92 cadillac seville. White with different shade of white bottom trim and dark blue canvas top. I presume the seats were white leather at one time but were ripped scuffed and dirty beyond recognition. 3990lb, 200hp 4.9L v8 when new, likely down to about 120 hp when it found itself into my ownership. Used to accelerate itself unexpectedly and without warning. No AC, 140 miles, bought from a Mexican.
I've owned fourteen cars now and although I mostly agree with you, that horrible hunk of horseshit generated no joy, created no confidence and was at all times a 1 out of 10 on any scale it sat it's fat tits on.
I literally gave it away. Actually literally. And I had a $20 in my pocket just in case I had to pay the guy to take it.

Depends on the car.
On a Subaru, you remove 2 bolts, remove the belt, put 2 bolts in and put the belt in.
That goes for a lot of longitudinally placed engines. But fuck transverse engines. It's the same process with them, but the space to work in is so tight.
depends on its location really, do you have an engine bay picture?

I really need mechanic help right now.
Today I replaced the brake master cylinder on my 2001 toyota sienna, and bled the brakes.
The brakes no longer work. They are really stiff after bleeding the fluid, but as soon as I turn the car on they go super soft and stay soft until I bleed them again.
Am I bleeding them wrong? I also I couldn't find the nipple on the front tires to bleed from either, so I only bled the rear.
Yes I know I'm a dumbass, but this dumbass needs to fix his shitbox by tomorrow.
If I am bleeding them wrong, what's the proper way to do it? What do I do about the front wheels? Any help at all would be appreciated.
You have to bleed all 4 corners. RR, LR, RF, LF.
You have to bleed the master cylinder before you install it into the car.
You did do this, right?
>>17745921
You should be fine. Just don't go over 25mph
>if it cannot survive a fall off of a mountain it's DANGEROUS!!!!!!!
Why do cars have to be so shitty when it comes to safety features, when things like motorcycles are (thankfully) completely unfucked with?
>get hit while on bike
>die
>get hit while in car while not wearing seat belt
>less likely to die but still thrown around inside the cuck cage
Why the double standards? Why do cars have to be so much safer than bikes?
And no im not advocating for bikes to have to follow shitty safety regulations
bikes are a smaller volume market, they can get away with less because its more "specialized"
stop baiting cagers just to get you tho, made you deserve a sage
just get an r1 go kart, my dude

You can get a nice setup vintage car that qualifies for the Historics for $50k still. Not everything there is unobtainium. A handful of my friends race every year and they aren't ultra rich or anything. The thing about Monterey is you need a car that was actually raced in it's day with good documentation.
All things considered, the Golf GTI is objectively the best car on the market from a value perspective.

Am I the only one who looks like the look of the new Civic Type R?
Call me a JDM fag or whatever, but all of the aggressive angles really appeal to me and I think it's beautiful. However I've heard a lot of other people disagree and say it's ugly. What do you think /o/?
It looks OK from the front. A bit too much plastic. The rear and the wing look kind of odd to me though.
>>17745688
i like it too. i'm used to seeing round bubbly ricebowls everywhere, this is a welcome change
>>17745707
it has the same pedestrian-safe front end as every other new car. plus it's angry and back has fake vents. it's a shit car for shit people.

I've purchased a 2014 Mazda3 Sport automatic transmission. I'm 21 and it's the first car I've ever owned in my name. I don't regret choosing it; it's a good looking car that has good mpg. I don't know how to drive a manual or I would've bought one.
Returning the car isn't an option but I want to make it handle smoother and go faster. I know it's better to save money for a year or two and buy a shitbox from craigslist but I'm impatient, young, and full of life. I'm getting 59 hours a week and have around $1k saved as I just recently stopped being a NEET.
Shocks, springs, rsb, new struts and camber bolts; just things I'm looking to add to the car to make it feel better to drive. Turbo is very close to impossible for the car because of ecu and I don't know a thing about supercharging but it's likely impossible as well. I don't know too much about vehicles but I want to know if there is anything else I could do that would make the car feel better.

>modifying an automatic econobox
kys. you should've learned manual enough to get the car home and gradually got better.
>>17745660
I know it's autistic. I don't personally know anyone that owns a manual car; no friends or family, even friends of friends. Maybe I could have had someone else drive it back to my house for me, idk.
>>17745680
pfft. best way to learn is to suffer through it.
About to wax my car, I've never done it. So how do I do it? I have access to one of those electric buffers but I don't know how it's used.
