Have you taken off the water pump yet? If there's still enough of the bolt sticking out you could just get a vice grip to clamp on it and spin it out easily.

>>15926031
I see. So take out the other two bolts and see if the pump comes off just by pulling by hand?

Is there any harm just leaving it like this until i actually need to replace the pump?

>>15926075
>there any harm just leaving it like this
Yes

Why were you fucking with it anyway

>be fucking retarded
you deserve it you dumb fucking shit.
You could have had a debt for anything, OP.
You could've had school debt for a good job
You could've had car debt like STIman for a nice ride
You could've had credit card debt like you just hit New Orleans up for a good time and lost it.
Instead, you chose to hit someone's property.
Kys my man.

All you had to do was turn the key to run without hitting the starter.

Fucking inbred moron. You deserve the debt.

How fucking loud is the car that you couldn't start it? And how retarded are you to forget the emergency brake is a thing?

No. Fresh brake hoses will always be an improvement, stainless will be more of an improvement because brake pressure isn't lost to the hose expanding.

>>15925728
Not if they're properly lined and shielded. Cheap ones without shielding will cut through anything they touch.

Yes, stock hoses are already reinforced (steel braiding on S2000s/NSXs, thick aramid/fabric layer on BMWs pic related) to handle the pressures without expanding.

Rubber lines fail by weeping/leaking, more gradually than Stainless Lines just blowing out (bad crimps on ends of fittings or abrasion from not being properly routed)

I'd like to see a comparison between new rubber lines and stainless steel lines in brake feel, but most of the change in brake feel comes from replacing 10-20+ year old rubber lines with new stainless steel ones.

As usual

How did it happen OP?

Commiefornia?

>>15925723
Calm the fuck down bro.

Was anyone seriously hurt?

Not much of a story but I'm still angry with myself. Friend who was in the passenger seat said he saw them doing 90 or something, which explains why the damage is more than a fender bender and why it was such a surprise.

Ditch the style 19's because they look out of place.

Very cool choice

VH45DE might be cool.

Or an Audi inline 5 turbo, boosted to borderline stupid levels because I'm fucking insane.

Five quart jug of most brand name full synthetic oils currently at my local usa wal-mart for $23 to $25. So when you say synth is $15 more, that's quite a shock. The wal-mart house brand full synth is $17.99 for a five quart jug.

Change it before 3k miles. Conventional will sludge up in these tiny gokart engines.

you just lost 50 torques

Simple.

If it's hard working, reliable, does what you want to do with minimum fuss, it's male.

If it's pretty, makes you excited, yet it's temperamental; it's female.

Why are you trying to buy a car you can't afford?

A great credit score won't help if the loan will push your debt to income ratio through the roof.

Well the thing isnt that I cant afford it, I just dont want to spend more than a set amount. I mean you dont go out and buy a mustang and just pay whatever they want you to do you? Im trying to keep my payments within a certain range.
