why is Europe so much better than america at V8s?

>giant air tube turns into tiny air tube turns into giant air tube
What did they mean by that?
they did not used to be
Im yuropoor but americans make much more powerful v8 imho.
Dont forget that somehow ford, dodge and gm somehow love n/a while merc bmw love 2+ turbos.
They get out so much power from n/a engines its kinda scary. 2018 mustang is an example.
Id wonder how much power they could get if they went amg turbo style.
I am considering getting one for a "fun" car, but i noticed that they are really slow. Can anyone explain to me why i should get one, or give me better alternatives? I want a fun car i can learn mechanical wizardry on, while it being fun.
It's not a highway cruiser, it's a mountain road carver. >200bhp is fine for a miata-sized car. For the style of roads it's designed for, you're more interested in suspension setup than straight-line speed anyway.
Too many amerifats on this board that have never driven on a proper twisty mountain road shit on these, miatas are fantastic cars

T. Amerifat who owns a Miata
If you want a car you can go "fast" on the highway and never learn anything about driving then get a mustang.

Welcome to another Night Wave thread:
Previously on Night Wave >>17609470
Let's rev up those engines! Starting with a meet in Galveston, with a few people coming from different cities and even states.
This meet hopefully will bring everyone out who has been inactive and not feeling the wave. Too long has been since we did anything that involved more then 5 people, so let's go out there, have a nice cruise/wangan to Galveston, take some pics, eat some great food, experience the real wave and keep growing! See y'all the meet. Hope everyone has a wonderful time there!
Date: July 29th, 3:30PM @ Whataburger on I-10 and Kirkwood.
We'll try to leave before 4:30PM so we can get there in time.

About to get a Infiniti fx35 for my mom, is it offroad capable?
>>17621719
Why did they fucking downgrade?
The only reason people say that they're good is because they spent a long time serving the police
The best police car was the Chevrolet Caprice, which the police loved so much that they tried to keep them all in running condition for as long as possible
>>17617925
Because it was a 30 year old chasis and Ford discontinued production. Also both the new caprice and the new charger turned and stopped better than these boats by the time they retired. And they both burned less fuel which is huge for fleet purchasers, which most LEA's are.
TLDR it was old and busted
>>17617947
>The best police car was the Chevrolet Caprice
what was so good about them?
I'll start:
>why not drive a modern car anon? can you not afford one?
I drive a 97 miata, it's modern enough okay?
X is an old person car. I'm not driving that.
>>17617345
Why did you choose a V6 over a V8 anon? That's not a true muscle car
I drive a V6 mustang because I don't take it to the track it's a DD and I don't have a shit ton of gas money just to impress normies with my big engine
>>17617388
Why even get the mustang in the first place?

Engine rad off the 240, hopefully I get time to work on it today
Rear springs settled. Looks much better now.
Changed out the ignition and door locks. Now my key works for everything. Will work for the tailgate too when I swap in the black one.

Here's my $3k Honda civic.
I started to work on my car this morning, to replace the shock absorbers, but this little fucker wouldn't give up, ended up completely seized, despite the penetrating oil and the wire brush.
So I had to put everything back together, with a fucked up link, until I can order the parts. Then I guess I'll use an angle grinder to cut them out. I should have ordered them from the start.
Nothing worse than having to put your car together without any work done, what a shitty day.
Need more power, 1k budget, what do? Budget could go a little higher
>>17638888
buy a gun or some rope.
>>17638888
Nothing.
If you had $15k I'd say put the supercharged 500hp 2.4L v8 from a caterham in it.
>>17638888
Make it lighter.
Hey /o/ my friend found this engine in the basement of his work awhile ago said their willing to part with it. But what engine is it? I can't really identify it and he's too stupid to know any of the motors.
Fuck, if only the manufacturer had put some kind of serial number on it so you could easily google it to find out what it was
Tough luck mate

I asked my friend but he said it's so rusted he couldn't read any of it. Yea i know. My friends a moron

I recently inherited an auto v6 Convertible Mustang from 2013 /o/. Is there anything I can do to make this car any better, or is it forever gonna be a rental car/faggotmobile?
Selling/trading isn't really an option as I got it from a relative.
>pic semi related
>>17637668
eh, you could throw a turbocharger on it but in all honesty why dont you just enjoy the car as is? Ford's v6 is alright, the one i have has held up many years without much maintenance.
>auto v6 convertible
there's literally nothing you could do, just sell it
>Selling/trading isn't really an option
is the title in your name? if so, it is. If the person is still alive thank them for the vehicle, and tell them it is going towards a car you've always wanted. if they're dead it's not like they could be upset.
