Just bought a Audi S8, planning on upgrading its ECU so it has around 700hp.

How did I do?

I've loved cars ever since I was a kid. Maybe it's because of the autism or something, but I can recite from memory every single spec about cars and shit, but I have no clue how to actually wrench on them. Because my biggest issue is space, living in a high rise, what's the best way for me to learn how to wrench on a car short of actually doing it on one? I have a Volvo S90 on a lease and can't obviously work on that, and purchasing space to buy a beater to work on isn't possible at this time. I don't know if I want to take the mechanic certification classes and shit, but is there any good YouTube or other online resources that you'd suggest? I'm sperg enough to know what shit in a car does, but not how, and not how to repair it. Thanks.

If you're in school or generally just in a position where you can take the SAE courses I would recommend them, they will give very good information, although it is a time and money investment.
>>
>>16229405
Thanks for your reply. What are the SAE courses? Googling it gave me some shitty Brexit music production courses. I'd love to take courses but I don't have time. My boss buttrapes me from 6AM to 8PM or so every day, and I barely get 1 day off a month, so I wanted something more passive if that's possible.
>>
>>16229441
Bro, handle your workflow. What your boss is doing is probably illegal.

With that out of the way, I think the previous poster meant ASE certification. Further, please don't just be a sperg, just go to classes and try to be functional.

How do you as a presumably;y early 20's male justify buying a compact sports car when you have kids around the corner?

I would love to get one of my dream cars and being successful in my career this is genuinely an option now. but it's very hard to justify when your Gf/wife and future children come in to the equation.

Looks like a Aston Martin maybe a db9

There is an abandoned vehicle in the parking lot. It's a 2008 Mitsubishi lancer 4 door sedan. I'm trying to get under the hood but I guess someone already tried and broke the cable in the interior. How do I get under the hood with a broker cable? I potential want to claim the car if its salvagable

Fuck claiming anything. Just part the car out and keep the money. Then walk away when all the good parts are gone.
>>
>>16228857
I need a car though, I don't have a car. What your saying is smart. But I'm willing to go through the trouble of getting this car up to use daily then scrap it for parts and find a car to buy. It looks like a good car just needs a jump to start and get the pink slip/keys from the dealer. The guy left all the paperwork except the pink slip in the trunk

idk wtf this thread is about, but I like it.

If low-profile tires are supposed to make your car faster, why are none of the tires in Formula 1/Nascar/Drag Racing low-profile tires?

Because low-profile tires don't necessarily make you faster. It's mainly about aesthetics.

Hey /o/,

I have my heart absolutely set on an RX-8 and have for years, so this thread isn't about convincing me otherwise.

I have finally gotten in a financial position where an 8 makes sense, but I'm only willing to pay $5-6k for one (burger here).

I cannot for the life of me find one in this price range, and if I do the owner literally never wants to commit to a compression test ($175 at my local Mazda dealer).

There are so many delusional listings for 8's with 150k+ miles for $8-9k. This didn't seem the case even over last summer when I would hawk listings.

Is the 8 just getting way more popular or am I having bad luck? Do you guys usually go with Craigslist to find for-sale-by-owner cars or is there some other method I'm missing?

Thanks /o/

honestly if you really like the rx-8 you should just save up more and get a nice low mileage R3 model

it'll probably save you from a lot of headaches
