Alright /o/, I was having a little chat with a "friend" today, and to his defense he knows fuck all about anything automotive.
Here's how it basically went.
Hey [friend], how's your mustang running?
>good anon, I'm gonna make it a Mach one.
(He owns a 2002 GT that's pretty fucking beat)
Oh shut dude, you know how much that's gonna cost right?
>not much it's just a supercharger.
[Friend], you know that a Mach 1 is a trim level, right? You need body kits, interior kits, maybe an engine rebuild and that's just ON TOP of the Super.
>lmao anon, no. It isn't. And superchargers aren't even expensive, it's cheaper than a turbo.
It went on, but you guys get the whole idea. Fucker thinks he knows it all without actually knowing jack shit. He's gonna blow up his fucking engine if he even installs the super right, much less affords one.
I guess ITT: we all hate the shit out of mustangs/people we know that are ignorant to car shit

Nice blog faggot. 10/10
Upvoted.

Mach 1 was mainly a body kit. Shaker hood scoop, rear louvers, wing. etc. also had the 4v engine the supercharged cobras had. base GTs had 2v motors. converting it to a proper mach 1 also entails swapping the 2v motor to a 4v motor. also, mach 1s were NEVER factory supercharged. sounds like your friend is a fucking moron. itll be cheaper to buy a mach 1 or a cobra if he wants sc

He really is a lot of the time. I don't know much about mustangs because I've never really been interested in them, but I'll see if I can relay the info to him.

It's still shit after all these years, don't bother. There's a reason why they are rare.

Because they know that a value of something is only worth what somebody is willing to pay for it.
If they hold out long enough, they will eventually get what they're asking. And usually they aren't in a rush to sell.

why do a lot of my friends, family and peers have this idea that you need to be driving a German/euro car by the time you are 30?
is this attitude common amongst your friends?

Status symbols are important in society.
Do you want to drive a Civic your whole life? A pigfag Ford truck?
More importantly do you really want to reach your 30s without knowing how a fine tuned Audi or BMW feels? You shouldn't settle for second rate.

2002-2006 Spec V Info thread.
These Cars seem way under valued.
Comes with a 6 speed, and a LSD.
170/180 Hp/TQ
Apparently headers on some simple bolt on's get you to 200 HP.
These are going for like 2grand.
Seems like a Great Value.
Red pill me on this car.

At the end of the day its still a Sentra.
Which is why they are so cheap, because its based on a cheap shitbox. At least Dodge had the thought to turbo their shitbox based turd.
>>
>>17800878
it does seem like a shit box.
I don't know if I would own one.
I think its a good car for a young car that wants to wrench. Seems like it has some issues- head gasket and exhaust stuff.
You could probably smoke a BRZ for under 3K. That would put a smile on my 16 year old face.

So why aren't you buying a Chevy Bolt?

Cause if I buy an ev it will be a tesla. And that's not because I think the bolt is a bad car. I've done a lot of research on it and I would have considered one if it wasn't for the subpar infrastructure to charge it away from the home.
Inb4 tesla shill
>>
there would be so many better EVs on the market right now if car companies weren't so goddamn dumb. i.e.:
>not having fast charging capabilities STANDARD
>having holdovers from ICE cars: fake grilles, fake exhaust, fake engine noise
>sub 200 mile range. No fucking excuse. The new i3 is the worst. $45000 car and you get 100 miles? What the fuck.
>stupid stylings
>sticking the batteries in a big clump in the rear. Just do them in a rectangle under the chassis, jeez. It's better in every way.
no wonder people want a TM3; it blows the other subpar EVs out of the water. Can't wait for all of these 1st gen EVs to hit the used market. Despite them being pretty poorly thought out, I wouldn't say no to a 7k used egolf or leaf.
>>
speaking of which, if you want a cheap leaf before the 2018 one hits, some states that have PSE&G as a utility are adding 10k ontop of the 7.5k incentive for leafs. That's $17,500 off of a leaf.

You know what really bothers me about this picture? The adjustable wrench. Who the hell uses one while working on cars? They're useless for small or tight bolts and won't grip properly.

Wow your top notch splerglord faggot of the day.
Ive used an adjustable wrench on cars when they were appropriate to use. Battery terminal to be exact.

These things? I've always found them to be too tight especially when corroded. Usually have to use another wrench too to hold down the other end since it spins out.
