Despite having wanted one since I was a kid I've passed on buying one on a few occasions now simply because it'd be a fucking nightmare to source parts for here in Aus.

I have a 2001 Camaro with 3.8l v6, does anyone know of a solid line on a harmonic balancer? I called Advance, AutoZone, NAPA, USA Speed world, AND the Chevy dealership, no listings and the parts discontinued. Is there a solid aftermarket option? Fuck I'll take an underdrive pulley if it's under $300.

Its really not that difficult, you just swap in every computer that ECU needs to get inputs from. THe only exception is antitheft, which you can delete with almost any tuning software package on any american car.

Hey guys. I'll keep it short.
I did some work for a buddy who has a ton of money. Picked his car up on Friday and delivered it on Sunday. Still have the key. He's now saying he doesn't have the money to pay me. Legally as a shade tree mechanic with documentation of work done can I hold his car?

I've got the key. It's a 2000 BMW 540i M5 piece of shit so I'm assuming it's the only fob he has. I'm going to go pick it up tomorrow.

>has a ton of money
Yet pays to have his car worked on by a shadetree mechanic? You learned your lesson, doing sidework always ends up in this kind of thing happen eventually. The people who try to get cheap, unlicensed work done on their cars don't do it because they are rich, smart, and trustworthy, they are broke, cheap, or planning on trying to fuck someone that has no recourse. Chock it up as a lesson (you didn't really lose much, imagine someone suing you because their airbag didn't go off and you happened to do some unrelated electrical work to the car, but it doesn't really matter what you say because you have no insurance or license so it must be your fault).

Hello fellow members of /o/, I wanna pick up my buddy's AE86. He's asking $3500. It's got the 4AC unfortunately, but it does have coilovers, a Bride bucket, HKS catback and only 120,000 miles. Body is straight, needs some new paint. Interior is 9.5/10. All it needs is a new clutch to be daily driveable. Is $3500 fair?
also let's post up some retro JDM rides

For some reason I'm just so happy, and this made me laugh a ton. Rode that ninja for a little over a year as first bike, never put it down until now, and I wasn't even riding it, or doing work on it, the bloody key wasn't even in the ignition.

The first time I ever drop a bike and it's in my garage simply moving it, for some reason I'm very happy about this.

At work just at the coat hanger near a heater at your workplace
In class let your jacket hang over your seat, keep the rest on
>It's just not fun or convenient. Why do you insist everyone should like riding in the rain?
It's more convenient than sitting in traffic.

You don't. It does exactly what it's meant to, be a flashy shitbarge with lots of power for the money. If anything you should fix the Mustang and Camaro pretending to be sports cars.

Because almost everyone who wants that sort of car will probably get a WRX

And the rest are in Europe

Because people who are so poor they have to buy the regular WRX have to give a shit about fuel economy, which FWD better delivers.

Because sport compact cars are dying.

Everyone wants CUVs and electric/hybrids.

In 10 years there won't be any affordable driver's cars other than the Miata and WRX.
