>ad used to say it's been sitting for a 9 years by previous owner and 1 year with current and was also missing the distributor and vacuum lines

Was it crashed and parted out or just parted out and left to sit 10 years ago? If the current owner had the car in a complete state when he bought it why are only these parts missing, unless he bough it as a parts car. I've been obsessed with these third gens for a few years and I can actually sort of afford this as a project.

Funny, I'm a sucker for those too. Can't you import one from the US? I believe they can be had very cheap there.

Those step things seem very useful if you're working with very heavy things and/or old enough to want something like that.

Go out and find some car friends. Finish school and get a decent job to buy a nice-is townhouse with a garage. Have a dependable daily and a fun car, this lets you have the fun car be in the garage undriveable for days weeks or months at a time depending on how insane you are.

Cars are an expensive hobby. Likewise having tools, a garage, a DD and other conveniences to facilitate this hobby are also costly endeavours. I've never understood how people in their early twenties and under tote around with cars that they have supposedly worked on based on only the sum of their own resources. My guess is people like that have parents with lots of money. The rest of us have to get financially established before we start actualizing our hobby. My suggestion is to start by moving the fuck out to a place that will accommodate your hobby. Next up is to get yourself an inexpensive DD. The rest is just tool and part accumulation.

tldr u need money

I'm 20
I've been done with school for 2 years, I couldn't afford college.

I'm working a utility company and while theres room for progression it will another 6-10 before I'm making a decent wage.

I make $11.25/hour, help with bills and save what I can but still barely have any money

I've looked at trying to live on my own and even with the cost of living being cheap where I am it would cost more than I make each month

Are you high?

>>15801683
Yes.
All car keys and keyless entry systems are the same on each model.
Some high security companies like the european ones actually develop different systems per color and year.
So it's a lot harder to getin into rare colored ferrari than it is to get into a corolla.

grandfathered over from the older ones
it's why the Beetle was sold from the late 40's to 1985 in Europe

Is this why production will end in 2019

>>15802047
I wouldn't be surprised if it's either because of crash testing or emissions
Same thing with the Land Rover Defender
It was grandfathered over from the Series 3 which was grandfathered over from the Series 2 which was grandfathered over from the Series 1

This meant you had engines designed in the 60's ( Rover V8) to meet emissions standards of the 50's in a vehicle assembled in the 2010's

Headunits have a surprisingly huge influence on the quality of car audio.
I used to have a Sony headunit and while the quality was much better than stock, it lacked depth and the bass was very hard and stiff. I got a used Pioneer headunit for free and the jump in quality was mesmerizing. Bass is now soft and succulent and you don't need to turn the volume all the way up to be able to enjoy every sound. Listening to MW2 soundtrack makes me feel like I'm in cinema, even on stock speakers.
My parents bought a Pioneer headunit for our Golf which was around 2004 and it served until last year in our Golf, then Audi 80 and then Twingo and I'm sticking with buying Pioneer forever. I myself would recommend starting any upgrades with a new headunit and then if you require even better quality, replacing the speakers or getting a subwoofer.
The bottleneck in my E36 are the stock speakers. I'm considering getting either Blaupunkt or Hertz speakers eventually.

If you use the stock headunit with a cassette aux adapter or an FM transmitter you need to kill yourself.

Search Amazon, eBay, or Gearbest for A119. That's the latest and greatest you're going to get for a good price.

The previous model, the A118 was the all-time highest selling on Amazon, so I don't see why the newer revision wouldn't be as well.

>I'm looking for a dash cam.

Check out previous archived /o/ threads on dash cams. There have been quite a few. Two thread examples are:

http://archive.4plebs.org/o/thread/15428027/lets-talk-dash-cams

http://archive.4plebs.org/o/thread/15523000/dash-cams

Picture of lady that backed up on a busy road in order to get to a parking spot she just passed up. She reversed into a car that was stopped on the roadway behind her. She and her husband were going to make the guy in back guilty of hitting her by LYING. There's no audio here, but she was accusing the driver (with the dash cam) of rear ending her. She was lying and using RIGHTEOUS FURY to make her point. So people, even wealthy ones, bold face lie about car accidents and make it the victim's fault. However, he had it recorded on a dash cam and thus wasn't charged with rear ending her.

It's a good thing the husband didn't rush over to yank his dash cam and remove the evidence. That data was worth money. You have to protect your dash cam footage too. There are cases where people get confronted about handing over their data or else.

I like the 2011-2014 Mustang GT and the 2010-2013 Camaro SS.

I don't like the Corvette C5; it's too archaic.

2007+ 350Z, E46 M3, or S2000. Only a 2010 Mustang GT with the 310hp 4.6 but definitely not a 5.0.

Could also do a high mileage Evo/STi.

You do research about what you want the car to do then decide

You look at them, test drive them, and then pick the one you like the most.

Because AWD are training wheels for wannabe racers and really only necessary for top tier rally racing.

>>15801030
because people there buy snow tires

Coincidentally iirc Volvo is one of the few companies thay actually sells twin charged (both turbo and supercharged) cars which is something that originates from the golden era of rally racing.
