500HP is ideal for a daily driver. <400 can get boring easily, >600 is becoming unusable in the real world.

its not like hes fucking lugging the engine or anything cruising in 6th around town in his torqueless heap of shit.

>>17075936
How is that "autistic"? Shifting too early means that you might be lugging the engine, it means you won't accelerate quickly enough, while also burning up more gas.
>it's okay bro I drive a manual transmission because it has better fuel economy
>engine starts to rumble as he shifts into fourth gear at 40
Thoughts on the updated 2017 DeLorean DMC-12?
>80% original parts made in the 1980s
>The interior will also get a breath of modernity thanks to air conditioning from Vintage Air, updated consumer electronics, and more comfortable seating.
>Price under $100000
Future plans:
>DeLorean is also currently in talks with manufacturers of prominent V6 engines
>Electric DeLorean
A prototype exists. Apparently the DMC-12 has lots of space for batteries, could reach substantial range

How the fuck am I supposed to unstick a fucking bolt when my socket extension can't even hold up to me turning the breaker bar BY HAND? It's not harbor freight shit either, I don't know what brand I'm fucking pissed. I sprayed PB Blaster all over the cunt and tried heating the area with a torch. I have an impact wrench that should be more than powerful enough but it won't budge this thing either and actually does less than the breaker and my muscles. I don't think my air compressor is up to the task of driving it.
FUCK RUST it's no goddamn wonder all car culture is situated on the west coast.

Also yes I realize that's a torque wrench and not a breaker bar, I use it as one because it's old and busted and it's way longer than my other 3/8" wrenches.
>>
>>17075598
I said I tried torching it. I can't afford an oxy/acetylene setup so I've got one of those red single-can things.

Are wooden steering wheels nice to use or will it be uncomfortable/tacky?
Wondering about this, they look so nice but it's a concern
Thinking about getting this or just going for an OMP wheel if it's not gonna be nice to use

I'm stuck in a bit of a dilemma:
>Live in Michigan
>Live where there are many large hills & curvy roads
>Want fun & practical car
>Does not matter whether FR, RR, or FF
>Something I can slowly work on over and slowly upgrade, not too costly
>Been doing research for more than 3 years on cars of all kinds, not biased towards one brand
>Stuck between 3 cars:
>87-89 Z31 300zx (little part support, but there is a local datsun specialist, mid size hatch, independent rear suspension, dedicated community, can get a 100k example for less than $6k)
>99-02 NB Mimi (massive aftermarket, cheaper to maintain than the Z31, can only carry a spare tire and 3 bags of groceries, because MI hardtop is a must so add $900 - 1k for an OEM top)
>88-91 CRX (Honda parts bin galore, even cheaper than Mimi, can find a very good example for $5k, practical hatch, slow but fun)
I live near my Uni. in an apartment so I don't have a garage, but my first purchase outside the car (and various small driv-ability upgrades like undercoating) would be an all season car cover.
I always park in a safe area where nobody else parks, but I always fear some drunk sorority dinddu would try to steal my shit, scratch it, or damage it in some way, so this plays a big role in my decision.
I've been fighting myself over these cars for a long time, written to various shows for advice, and consulted my uni car club to no avail.
What does /o/ think I should do?

Z31 is pree chubchub desu. I loved mine but they're more cruiser cars than a curvy road car.

>>17074870
Yeah, I really love the Z31 and it's longbody wedge car design. I always go traveling so it's cruising mentality is something I highly admire. Did you use yours as a daily? That's something I'm obviously going to be doing.
