if car engines are literally just controlled explosions turning a crank then how come we don't go deaf the instant they turn on? wouldn't the decibels be in the hundreds for each cylinder?

so then how is it a combustion engine you fucking retard? there's no combustion so what, it's a flaming engine? i didn't know every engine was a model of your shitbox trying to do a single lap around a track.

Its not exposions idiot.
Does flicking a lighter make you deaf?
Fuck you're stupid.

More of a burn if you want to think about it like that. Gasoline doesn't explode like TNT. It burns and pushes down on the cylinder over time instead of exploding all at once. Still fairly loud without mufflers though.

Hello /o,

I'm thinking about leasing an Evoque. All back. They are advertising $3500 down and $389 per month.

Any opinions? Is it true Land Rover has gotta much better since acquired by Tata? I thought the first gen evoque looked like a girls car(I'm a late 20's business owner/wanna-be chad.) but the '17 in black or grey has me rethinking that.

Better ideas? How about the discovery?

There hasn't even been a bodyshape update to the Evoque yet. It's still a useless trophy wife bucket with gunslit windows and horrid visibility.

Buy an Escalade. Faster, bigger, more comfortable.

I drive a 1997 Honda Civic DX that I swapped with a VTEC motor. It is turbocharged, bright green FMIC and red Konig wheels. Has a couple stickers on the rear window (came with the parts) and has a giant eBay fart can on it. Also an eBay grill. Am I considered a ricer even though I have a real performance oriented car?

If he gets one tell him to 351 Windsor swap

Is there a car similar to the Miata within its price range? I've been looking at it and like it but it's generally considered a feminine car (and I'd rather not look like a total faggot).

looks like my muffler decided to fuck off of my exhaust pipe. now sounds like i'm driving a lawnmower filled with pennies.

What's the fix here? Estimated repair cost?

We know nothing of your car
We know nothing of the integrity of the remainder of the exhaust line
>>
Just replace everything that has flaking rust on it
>>
>>15935400
if the metal behind the rusted break spot is good enough an exhaust shop can just cut off the rotted portion, weld on a new pipe with a flange and you'll be on your way.

depending on where you are probably about 200-350 all said and done

Are Japanese cars really more reliable or is it just a big meme? I want to buy a 100k+ mile car because but I dont want to buy some boring plastic shitbox

Not so much anymore. For the 90s and 00s, Hondas and Toyotas were the best but even then most 'Murrican cars had good drivetrains but other shit broke.

Japanese marque cars are more reliable. One of the most reliable sedans you can buy is the Camry, which is made in the US with mostly US parts. It's still a camry though.

Want to add flush vents to the rear panel (getting ebay grilles refitted on the nacelles atm)

Major issue with the lateral sensors looking at a Tom Paris conversion kit but pricey.
