Hey /o/
So I got an old fox body to learn wrenching on. I got the car from an older gent for $100, what tools should I need and how much should I spend on them? I plan on just buying a Haynes manual and youtubing everything. Vehicle is an 88 Mustang LX hatchback.
Also I already own an engine hoist because shenanigans. So if I ever need to pull the engine to do something I can.
Get yourself a little socket set like this.

That would be enough to take anything apart needed?
well we see all the norcal and texas and oregon meets- so why don't we have one for my friends from the tri-state area and a little further? (ct, ny, nj, pa, ma, ri, etc)
who would be interested? maybe parking lot meet and then a cruise somewhere?

If anyone does this to their trucks its almost certain they are a poser faggot.
What is the point in ruining your truck? Why the fuck do you need to make it wider when its almost as wide as a lane? What the fuck is the point of lowering it on offroad tires and streching the fuck outta it?
It looks like its been lifted then slammed
wtf

It is lifted, then they have spacers and deep dish wheels with relatively wide offroad tires on it. Lifting isn't ruining and the rest is just in the wheels I could make my truck look like this for like $800 then sell the wheels and tires to get my money back but there really is no functional reason for it somebody just wanted to do something different I guess.

You have the opportunity to buy one of your most favorite cars. 2 incredibly great offers. Both similarly priced, both might be "shit that only happens once in a lifetime"-chances in terms of price and literally everything about them.
>>16559413
Buy the most reliable or the one that will age/hold value best.
My favorite car 10 years ago is no longer my favorite car. If I'm making a big investment, I know myself enough to know I want a back door.
The one I'll be able to find replacement parts for easier.
>>16559413
I'd just buy the one I want more.
What's supposed to be difficult about this decision?
I'm looking at buying a car that's a few cities away and it doesn't run. It's a 1984 E30 325e and the seller says it needs an engine harness to run. When I get home I'm going to swap a 325is drivetrain in it, but I have e not way to get it home. I'd rather not pay $300+ to rent a U-Haul truck and trailer.
Is there any way I can get the car started enough to drive home without a harness? I don't care if it won't idle, I don't care how well it runs, I just need to be able to limp it to the shop to do the engine swap.
>>16559196
carb,distributor ignition, alternator, a batery and fuel pump
that is all you need.
>>16559203
What if it's fuel injected...
>>16559196
wtf is an 'engine harness'?
is that the rats nest of wires to all the sensors and shit? how can that be completely missing?
Nothing ridiculous ever breaks on my e92 in forza 4.....so i am left with nothing else to conclude but that all BMWs ever made are 1000% god tier.
Prove me wrong
/o/ wait

Id smoke you in my AWD swapped Neon. am usually pretty unstoppable in wing-delete Viper ACR also.
K /o/ convince me why my first non rental car shouldnt be a older subaru impreza wrx sti and not other options ie truck/different companies/models. Note im a a calicuk so i dont really need a pickup or suv,All wheel drive vastly preffered bonus points for sportier vehicles and your idea of a decent city car capable off light/medium offroad and snowy terrain
AWD sucks
>>16558066
I can't really fault the STI. It's a great car but tends to attract a certain crowd of morons as fans.
Personally, I'd look for a Subaru Forester XT with the 5 speed manual, and swap in the STI's 6 speed manual. The Forester XT gets the STI engine, but with a different turbo so it's slightly detuned. It's less likely to have been abused like a WRX or STI, and the wagon body style makes it infinitely more practical.
>>16558149
not really looking for specifically sti wrx by itself is fine
What's this fucker doing to prevent his cars from being hacked?
>>16551157
Stop shit posting please.
>>16551161
It's a legitimate question - it is a safety issue, right?
>>16551157
Pre-hacking them. Tesla is already monitoring everything you do and has complete control of the car at all times. If you're controlling it, it's a privilege and you should suckle Elon's nuts in gratitude.
How'd I do /o/?

I really like the look of these little bastards, but I don't want to be stuck with a boring car. Are they really as bad as they say? Or should I just get a Ford Fiesta?
Fiesta isnt going to be any better m8.

Its a small family hatch, get the base trim with the best NA engine available and eco tyres and thrash the living daylights out of it and it will be a bit fun but not fast. But very few modern cars are actually fun, they are too heavy, have too much grip so when you push it past the limit you are going too fast to fix it on the road, too quiet and generally not revvy enough because the are tuned for MPGs and chugging round town at 1200rpm, because that's what people do most.
