Who here likes to show their dominance on the road? Even if you don't drive a fast car.

Sup /o/, I have a challenge that I think you will be better at than anyone else. I'm a delivery driver and own two cars, one as a daily and one for delivery driving. I'm thinking of upgrading my delivery car, my only requirement is that the interior looks like a birthday party from the 90s and is somewhat reliable.

Is it possible to pass emissions with a crack in my main converter flange? Even if it passes the sniffer and obd test, will I automatically fail if they hear the huge leak? I simply cant afford a new $500 converter.

Plug the hole with two-component chemical metal

You will have to use an angle grinder to cut it apart afterwards though

Practice with the chemical metal on another surface first though, so you don't put it on too late or early, you can also get a tube of clay-like chemical metal that is easier to use and apply, but it has more the properties of clay instead of cement, so harder to get in a tight space for complete seal, better for actual holes

What would I have to cut apart later? The cat from the header?

Are Evo X's bad cars? I've kind of ignored them due to weight/appearance/relative lack of "hardcoreness" but maybe I shouldn't discredit it. How are they in comparison to other new sports cars?

the money you would need to make them competitive to v8's you could just by a fully equipped V8.

They aren't worth it anymore. the mustang and the camaro put down better lap times now. i mean fuck, 34k for less than 300 bhp? Fucking sad.

Anyone here daily a foxbody? How reliable is a foxbody mustang ('83 GT with a 4bbl Holley 600 and borla exhaust headers specifically) day to day? I was gonna go for one but when I mentioned it to the family mechanic he started pleading to me and God not to get stuck with it, then told me about an 80s Camaro he had that was so bad that he needed a second job to keep it on the road and it was breaking down weekly on him. A Craigslist listing or two for fox mustangs mentioned that the cars they were selling burned oil "like all 80s mustangs". I need a car to last for longass drives and not ask for more than typical regular maintenance, so if this is more than one lemon Camaro and some dumbasses on Craigslist then I need to know.

Pic is the engine bay btw

If you're not mechanically inclined I'd look elsewhere, but mine's fairly reliable. It does drink a lot of oil, so you need to keep an eye on that, but if it runs it will stay running, usually.

However, the brakes are terrible, the handling is terrible, the headlights are terrible, the interior is terrible, everything is terrible to actually live with. As soon as it starts raining at all you go full panic mode.
>>
I good running 5.0 won't burn any oil.

You don't want to take longass drives routinly in a fox mustang unless you hate yourself.

Finding a stock unmolested fox for cheap is near impossible, and the more molested a car gets the less reliable it is. I bet you that carb on there was tossed on as is out of the box or off another car.

If you wan ta comfortable reliable car an 80's mustang is not it.
>>
>>15564983
It doesn't have to be unmolested, but it has to be molested correctly. Mine had bolt-on SFCs, a short-throw shifter, exhaust, and rear end gears. Clearly modified, but I can live with it.

/o/, I have a question for the DD high-mileage vehicle drivers out there. I have a Hyundai Sonata that has held up like a tank with NO issues at all. I'm planning to actually change the upholstery in the interior and give it a nice new paint job. The vehicle has 130,000 miles now though so have any of you just traded it in at that point?

I basically baby this vehicle so I know it will last long. Has anyone on here decided to spend money on making their high mileage car look better or have better accessories installed? Is it worth it?

Not worth it.

You´ll never get the $ back.
>>
If you know damn well you can squeeze out another 100k out of it and have the money to lose then sure, I see no problem with it. Makes it easier to sell in the future, I mean sure that money isn't coming back but it'll make it more comfortable for you and it'll look better to a future buyer.
