Why is a Miura more expensive than a new Mustang? I was looking up used car prices, and a Miura from the early 70s is literally millions of dollars even though it can only pull off 0-60 in 6.7 seconds (slower than a shitty FRS lol). A Mustang 6 cyl could easily smoke it on the drag strip, so why is an old 70s shitbox still so expensive?

5 reasons why Miuras are the best!
1. Heritage!
2. It looks glorious!
3. I love it!
4. Miura!
You're a smart man, OP.

Where can I get some geo tracker wheels? I think they're cool and want to put them on my shitbox
>>16226498
junkyard
>>16226520
those dont exist anymore
>>16226525
There's two here in my local junkyard. I still have my original rims too even after I got some old jeep wheels for mine. 5x5.5 is not a terribly common wheel size outside old ford trucks and some jeeps though.
Probably won't fit on your shitbox.

>how do I fix this
>>16226465
Fix what you drooling retard? The speedometer going apeshit? Just unplug the fuse or the battery damn.
>>16226465
remove your cluster, theres 3 "main" bulbs in the rear for illumination and 2 smaller ones for accesorices or something else.
194 are very standard bulbs, any auto parts store will carry them. "24" bulbs? not sure about those. Either way I'd replace all 5 bulbs once you get the cluster out.

Okay /o/, car shopping and have two cars in mind, but torn between the two.
>03-07 Nissan 350z
>99-04 Mustang GT
Which would you pick, and why? I'm looking for a DD, going to modify slightly with aims of reaching 300-350hp. MPG and room/space don't matter, as I don't have friends. Reliability is important to me, but from what I have seen online, neither seem to be very unreliable. Commute about 8k miles a year, experience snow a decent amount but nothing too serious.Thanks.
Pic somewhat related, what I currently drive
I'd choose the 350Z in any event. NA or TT vs V6 or V8.
Even if it's probably harder to work on, I love the 350Zs. A friend of mine recently bought a 350Z N/A with about 160k miles and it runs and drives excellent. No issues with it since he bought it. That's about as much as I know about them though.
>>16226451
Neither. Your current car is better than both.
>>16226451
I am a die-hard Ford fan, OP.
If you are stuck on the 99-04 Mustangs, I would go with the 370Z instead.
Most SN95s have been molested to hell and need a ton of work. 4.6ls only make good power with boost, so plan on dumping $4k+ into a car worth $5k...
If you like Mustangs and are reluctant to go the path of the greasy-gook Jap cars, at LEAST get a 3v Mustang. 350hp N/A is achievable on the 3v platform without spending a massive fortune.
My advice? Just get a damn Terminator. Spend the extra money and you'll be a very happy dude.
How hard is it to change a drive belt on a 1999 honda accord? (4 cyl)
My current drive belt looks like it has a lot of cracks in it so i want to change it but im poor and i found the belts are only like 15 dollars online so i want to change it myself
Anyway, is it easy to do for someone who the most he has done on his car is an oil change?
>>16226348
If the drive belts look like shit you might as well do the water pump and timing belt as well.
>>16226348
In the time it took you to make this post, you could have googled a replacement procedure or looked up a YouTube how-to video
Yes, you can do it. You may want to remove the upper engine mount to fit your hands inside. Just put your screw jack under oil pan with light pressure. And Google the tools you might need.
I'm getting one soon. Give me any alternatives. I love the looks of this car in particular.
>>16226308
sure you are buckarino
>>16226308
M2 is supposedly better to drive. Practicality is similar between the two.

I need a socket for 1157 lightbulb, but no one seems to sell it where I live. It's for 03 Altima, front turn signal. Any ideas where I can get one?
>>16225726
The internet.
>>16225726
you need a socket? go to the junk yard and hack one off. you'll have to solder it in place though.
>>16225726
omg faggot just snip the wires and put in a generic plug, jesus fucking christ how useless are you people?

Well, at least you can't do much worse.
I'm having trouble getting the hang of heel/toe braking.
I'm a 6'2" guy and i drive an '06 WRX. I feel like every time I try it I'm contorting my body to turn my foot enough to get both pedals. I've tried it in a friend's car which had a longer accelerator pedal that pivoted from the floor as apposed to hanging from the top. I could achieve it easy enough in his car but still fail to get in a good rhythm in mine.
I also feel like I'm losing fine control on the brake because I'm lifting my foot off the floor to blip the accelerator.
Am I validated in my struggle or am I just a scrub who should 'git gud'.
Pic related, my pedals.
>>16225669
how do you have 4 pedals?
>>16225673
>4 pedals
It's a foot rest my man.
>>16225669
I also have trouble doing it really consistently with the WRX pedal set up especially if I'm trying to double clutch from 4th to 2nd or something like that. I'd just get a new pedal set if you really want to be the baddest dude on the touge, you gotta go with what works for you.
