I'm sure you guys are familiar with what these guys are trying to do. Would you pay $5k for a CAS system?

A crank angle sensor? No thanks

From squinting at the decal it seems to be "compressed air supercharger". I can put a 100# wet shot of nitrous on my shit for $500 so I'm going to go with "What? No. Why?"

Your intellectual expose makes it impossible to not discern that you have a post doctoral understanding of combustion, fluid mechanics and Newtonian physics. I stand in awe...

Fuck me. I need some inspiration to drag this thing back in the shop and complete it before it starts rusting away outside. It's sickening to think that 5 years have gone by and I still haven't heard I run.
I doubt anyone here has done something more stupid with their hard-earned money than I did

You installed the engine into the car without first checking to see if it'd run? Boy that's risky. You must not mind taking engines out

That sounds like A LOT of money spent on a 2jz. What were you even trying to do with it?

Sell it as a project for $40k+.

Hey /o/
I noticed the diff cover on my 84 C1500 had an impact at the bottom and was dripping during a weekend trip. I decided to take the diff cover off and change the fluid and noticed the breather was missing. Does this fluid look okay? Also, as a bonus, can anyone help me identify this axle? I don't think its a Dana axle but that would just be my uneducated guess.

I fear water has entered the differential through the missing breather

The fluid does lookreally thin. Re grease it and get yourself a breather

Keep the burb and fix it up. They're always useful and fairly comfy. Buy a miata or something as a second fun car.

keep till it dies

>>17541466
Definitely get a new one. New cars are faster, more fuel-efficient, more practical, more fun to drive, and much, much safer.

How much would you pay for this mustang? It has super low miles but it's old and has shitty paint. No rust though. I'm thinking like 5k would that be a good deal? https://muskegon.craigslist.org/cto/d/ford-mustang-gt/6203853333.html

$1500, and I'd probably only use it as a spare parts car

Not really a car you need to get with such low miles, plenty with clean paint and interior with higher miles for a much lower price
you'd honestly have more fun in a P71 since it's auto

Mileage is a meme, get a cheaper one.

Holy fuck, now I finally understand first hand why dryrotted tires are bad. And it wasn't even on the ground, the car was on jackstands when it just popped in the sun and shredded itself!

The dryrot cracks wasn't just on the outside btw, it had spread into the inner tire. What I don't get is how it just popped only two weeks after I put the car on jack stands when it had spent months on the ground supporting the car's full weight.

Coincidental.
I once had a wheel bearing that gave no indication of failing totally size after changing a tire.

stuck on the side of the road typing this right now
I just mashed my heel into the brake at the red light when I was fidgeting and I heard a "click". Now the brake doesn't brake unless I push it in all the way and even then it's kinda weak.
Brake fluid level is at half so I think I either sprung a leak or have an air bubble. Refilled it with 75 w 90 gear oil as that's the only thing I have - I don't remember the last time it was topped up. Going to drive it home now and triple my braking distance.
Is it a leak or air bubble?
