Muchos, pero estan muy mal valorados
Poor college-fag looking for a VIN check on JM1NA3535T0706067. It's for sale, and I'd like to know what I'm getting into.
How bad are Tiburons really?
Its as bad if not worse than that mecury cougar from around the same time.
They somehow managed to get 172hp from a V6. Interior is pretty bad too. I was surprised how much I like the sound though
>>17387865
Terrible. If you're a poorfag just get a civic for 3k.

Unless it's a shatter-proof plastic mug that says 'you were a terrible father and all you taught me was not to repeat your mistakes', I'm not doing father's day.
At least half of my mechanical and /o/-related knowledge was gained from 'My dad did X and look how that turned out, so don't do X'.
>>17387825
at least your dad taught you shit. All mine taught me was literally nothing useful
Why does the piece of shit LS motor need forced induction to make as much power as the Viper?
>>17387773
it's smaller.
>>17387773
Cause it's smaller?

So you're saying there's no replacement for displacement?
Also nice trips.
It says its a buick century 1971 but i cant find any pics of that car on the internet. The headlights are different, and they are 2 door. Hope someone can help, thanks!
The year is wrong. That's a mid-70s Century.
Does /o/ like this movie?
Imo it's the best done anthropomorphization of cars yet
Clarkson did some voice acting in it.
So, yes.
No, this is.

I've been defeated once again
Hi Noob mechanic here. I've been working on an xr200 for a while and I accidentally disconnected the break from the clamp that keeps it against the left Fork since then there's been too much tension on the cable and I can't use the break I tried playing around with the adjuster nuts and nothing seems to work please help I want to go riding
It's a drum break if that makes a difference.
Just picked up a used 49cc engine Ecsta Pocket Bike (used for racing). Spent the past hour looking for manuals, since this is my first Pocket Bike. Can anyone direct me to some sort of guide or manual? I know that it takes a 32:1 fuel mixture but other than that, I'm in the dark.
Ok so i have a 2001 pontiac grand am se and it's getting pretty hot where i live now and so i have trouble with my car running too hot and i already had to replace the thermostat box once and i don't want to do it again.
so my question is: would buying a hood with a scoop or vents help with this at all? is there another solution?
buying a ram air hood wont fix your overheating issue. start simple with diagnosing it properly. are the cooling fans working? coolant level ok? does the coolant look brown and full of shit?
>>17386790
take it to a mechanic and have it fixed properly.
>>17386822
idk about the fans but it is pretty old so i thought it might be the filter or whatever is all full of shit so it isnt getting good air flow.
the coolant should be fine because i had a problem with it when my thermostat box melted so i check it pretty regularly and the brand of coolant that is supposed to be standard is orange so i wouldnt know if it looks brown
Can I run my miata without the serpentine belt attached? I just discovered that it's shredded but TTBOMK it only runs the a/c and power steering, neither of which I need.

>>17386663
A/c, power steering and a couple other minor things (you don't really need any of it).
Go ahead and run it, its just parasitic HP loss, you'll have more power.

Same thing works if you stick a slice of bologna on it overnight

Can't believe idiots like you exist, just go to auto zone and get a compound and or polish you dumbass
>using aftershave as polish
would YOU buy this car? i was just in the market to buy a used car and i came across this
2015 golf SE
msrp right under 25k miles news
no accidents, one owner who used it as a backup car
JUST UNDER 20K miles
they're asking for 10k
what's the catch? last owner went over a curb and cracked the oil pan. what they told me on the phone was that they replaced the entire engine from another car with just about 20k miles. they said they have all the paper work and it was nicely done. i'm thinking about heading over and checking it out
i mean from 10k to 25k is 15k. and it's under 20k miles..
would you take the chance?
>>17386557
just get a civic for 3k or fix your current car.
This is a good car.
>>17386339
I drove one as a rental. It was ~OK.
Then again my daily is a 335i so the Datsun didn't stand much of a chance.
