You probably can't afford the insurance in Toronto

>>17120009
I will be able to once I can actually get to a job site. I need a vehicle before I can actually get a job. Transit is pretty much not an option where I live.

Get your 2k Civic then get the $37 etest. Then register the vehicle and get insurance. Bamn you now own a street legal car. The gubment dunnit care about safety only the stuff being thrown out the tailpipe.

>buy a brand new
Because you can buy a slightly older one and modify it to your liking from the saved money

Idk, I think you should, but I never liked the back portion of this new Miata, always looked a bit too small

because NA is better

Quality post, my friend.

Tahoes (at least older ones) are considered more reliable, and just more popular. Here in California youll see Tahoes at every stoplight of every year

Because the 5.3 is good and the 5.4 is junk

pretty much this. Almost every engine Ford made during the 2000-2010 time period was complete rubbish.

REMINDER TO ALL COMMERCIAL KEKS IN AMERICA

A thread in which we "talk" about our right, as American Sovereign Citizens, to Travel by your self-propelled horseless-carriages. Your right to travel extends to automobiles. You do not need a license to Travel. You DO need a License to Drive/Operate Motor Vehicles.

Statutes at Large California Chapter 412 p.83 “Highways are for the use of the traveling public, and all have the right to use them in a reasonable and proper manner; the use thereof is an inalienable right of every citizen.” Escobedo v. State 35 C2d 870 in 8 Cal Jur 3d p.27 “RIGHT — A legal RIGHT, a constitutional RIGHT means a RIGHT protected by the law, by the constitution, but government does not create the idea of RIGHT or original RIGHTS; it acknowledges them. . . “ Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1914, p. 2961. “Those who have the right to do something cannot be licensed for what they already have right to do as such license would be meaningless.”

FAQS, FACTS and COMMON MISTAKES ECT AKA """TL;DR""" of older threads

>Its an old precedent!
Does not matter. The older the better and more valid in court of law in America. Look it up before shitposting.

>Its a STATE precedent
These are fine and may be applied in any state. All founded precedents can be referenced from any state at any time period as a means of binding on or persuading the court to agree to your case

>The case was about X
Depending on context, it may or may not matter depending on what the paragraphs the sentence being quoted is from. Knowledge of its original case and reading it is 100% suggested to anyone wanting to use it in arguement. It also has to be deemed on lawful precedent.

Here's one of the fox bodies I'm looking at too

Where is "nearby"?

I don't care much for the Z31s as they kind of killed Z cars for me, but they're reliable and easy to get 350bhp out of the turbo ones

See if you can find a S30, much more fun than the Z31

About two hours away. I live in Charleston right now, and everything on CL is not worth the effort or just not what I'm looking for.

I raced one for a while in regional karting stuff and another in F2000. They were both shit. It's pretty annoying. But it's really just a symptom of the problems of modern car racing. It's no longer about merit it's all money.
I can't even hardly watch GT racing anymore it's an absolute joke.

The VLNs still good

No advice from me but following this thread because I want a Bronco really fucking bad.

Rust sucks.
Floorboards of course.
Check rear inner fenderwells under the carpet.
Rear window motor is (iirc) the same as passenger side. You might have problems finding it listed at auto parts stores.
If any of the window motors seem weak, bypass the switches with a hotwire to check before replacing the motors. Dirty terminals in switches cause slow motor function.
High performance clutch disks are like $10 more than the stock greens (guessing its an auto).
I think that's an np208 transfer case- cheap to rebuild it, do it while the transmission is out.
Replace the u-joinys while you're at it- they've been pushing a lot of weight.
Don't assume it has an 8.8 rear diff just because that's what the manuals/internet says. Ford used 9" housing when they were out of 8.8's, you can have either one from the factory. Verify before you start ordering parts.
Front is Dana 44 "reverse rotation", ring and pinion are specific to ford.
3.73 gears are the cutoff for one carrier size, lower gears need a thinner carrier to compensate for the thicker ring to mesh with the smaller pinion .
Lift kits suck.
Springs have to be much stiffer to compensate for the higher center of gravity combined with the short wheelbase.
Bolt on kits WILL loosen over time. Wld them on if you go that route.
Autofab has godly kits with cut &welded traction beams so you don't need drop brackets. Extended radius arms are preferred for handling (although drop brackets actually give better ground clearance).

Shortly after a friend got this one I saw a (73?) older bronco for I wanna say 700$ was in real bad condition but the budget we got our only option to secure one before they go extinct was to buy this one. Depending on your area check craigslist, and be prepared for OJ jokes

You'd have anger issues, too, if you were on meds, 50k in debt, barely managing your payments and could lose your job any day for no good reason.

They're limited to 105kph so they're always slower than highway traffic. Fucking sucks when they're not in the right lanes.
