The Great Debate
Left Up or Right Down
Right down. I don't want to press a fucking button and pretend shift into first gear.
>>17481706
Up-left makes it harder to inadvertently shift into reverse. Plus it's more conveniently located because after you back out of your driveway, you'll need to start in first and it's right there.
>>17481706
>moving hand forwards to go backwards
Who the fuck thought that was a good idea?

It's late my nigga. And my garage is small.

Or would you prefer a z06 vs gtr meme?
So I'm looking into replacing the transmission fluid in the truck I just bought. The fluid is still red and it doesn't smell burnt, but the guy who sold it to me did do a lot of towing. Its also a high mileage truck {250k)
Now, I've been reading more and more than doing a full flush at the dealership can be dangerous (they use a machine to drain the liquid, apparently you can dislodge things that might fuck up the tranny, yadda yadda), drain and fill won't replace all of it, but might be better
so is this true or what? my tranny works perfectly fine as far as I can tell. I'm just obnoxious about scheduled maintenance, but at the same time, I don't want to fuck my shit up
tl;dr: Are machine operated full flushes bad for older trannies, is a drain and fill a better option?
>>17493561
If you do it when scheduled on the manual you could but since you don't know if the transmission fluid is the original or when the last time it's been changed I would just drain the fluid and refill and change trans filter if you can
>>17493561
Just do a drain every 10k or so miles, ATF Bottles are like 10-15 per qt so its like 30-45 dollars versus the 250 or some shit they charge for your 75k full flush. It's just easier and cheaper.
What I do when I buy a car with unknown history is undo a tranny cooler line at the radiator, buy a gallon of atf.
Have the cracked line in a gallon jug, and run the car for 20 seconds or so increments adding new atf so ideally you have a gallon drained and a gallon added.
Do this every oil change and you slowly purify your atf, without any drastic changes.
It's also easy as fuck.
The stock speakers in my car sucked, so I had them replaced at a car audio shop. I got jewed pretty hard by their service fees, but I am happy with the work they did.
However, my speakers would benefit from and amp, and I might as well put a subwoofer in along with it.
Should I save a few hundred dollars and try to install them myself?
What are the chances of me fucking something up?
>>17493422
Pretty hard to fuck something up. If you do decide to get two amps (one for door speakers one for subs) you'll want to make sure the back of your head unit has enough rca outs.
You did waste money at that shop though since you'll have to re-run your speaker wire to the amp itself.
>>17493422
Also I do recommend doing it yourself. A lot of car audio shops will butcher the wiring job because they're lazy and realize the owner will never see it.
I went to a car audio shop and get kept trying to impress me with super loud systems. I wasn't impress at all, I was seeking quality not volume.
Why is the car culture so obsessed with being loud as fuck? It's not good for your ears.
Why do poor people key cars?
You mean why do selfish, aggressive people with no respect for others and their property key cars? Aka Americans.

>241 years and one day later and Britcucks are still THIS upset
The current Mustang GT with a Ford Racing power pack makes 472HP out of 4951cc while retaining a factory warranty. The 2018 Mustang adds dual injection and a 12:1 compression. Will American muscle finally achieve 100HP/L without forced induction?
A better question: who cares?
HP/L is a fucking meme.
My pp3 finally showed up in the mail today. As for the 18? I doubt it.

You didn't even cycle IPs, put some effort into it. Thanks for the bump.
Alright lads I'm off to college in the fall and bought this car with money I saved up running an online business and trading crypto.
I'm not interested in upgrading/improving it and definitely not interested in showing it off at car shows/meetups.
But it looks damn nice and I can use it for my college years.
Did I make a good choice?
>Ford Mustang
>good choice
pick one
Yes. But don't kid yourself, you will get the mod bug. Get a shift kit if auto or a short shifter if manual and a nice-ish exhaust minimum.
Didn't we just have this thread? Fuck off
