Nice, looks pretty good. Change all the fluids on it, and check the timing belt.

Good econobox, just don't be that douche who constantly benchraces and spams "HURR DURR FWD IS JUST AS GOOD AS RWD RWD KEKS BTFO XDDD" like every fucking Honda owner on here does.
>>
>>15337616
That'll be my first step.
>Flush everything, new fluids
>New belts if necessary
>New, non-shit rims and tires
>Make sure nothing else mechanical is required
>Simple paint job
And then I can see what I can do about getting some more power under the hood.

So I just installed a set of long-tube headers on my truck.
Initial startup was fine with no problems aside from a leaking exhaust flange which I'll just weld later to make it one straight tube.
After about 15 mins of driving I got a check engine light, not hearing or feeling anything different in the way the truck is driving I can only assume it's the O2 sensors or the Cats.

I was able to reinstall all 4 of my O2 sensors into the new headers, but I cut both of my front cats off and am now running with just both the rear cats.

Any advice on how to fix/diagnose?

Not OP but my LS3 stock manifolds had 4 sensors, 2 primaries and 2 secondaries

OP, you're gonna need a tune with longtubes. Even long tubes with high flows will throw a CEL, at least on my car there is no way around this. A tune should take care of everything

Hi /o/, I have something fun for you guys to do.

Go to copart's biohazard section (http://www.copart.com/us/search?q=BIOHAZARD%2FCHEMICAL) and bring back the nastiest/worst car you can.

It's something I really enjoy doing in my free time. Last time I was on I found at least 5 cars where the owners blew their brains out inside.

Here's a tip: The ones with the best looking exteriors have the worst interiors.

Something bad happened in this quattro: http://www.copart.com/us/Lot/32658715?searchId=1449782182

Questions that don't deserve threads time, my dad has a late 80s/early 90s ford 5.8 engine that he wants to put in his 79 bronco, my question is what horsepower it has because it's fuel injected and if it will bolt up to the old transmission. The 400 block seized up so it's junk. I'm just curious if it's even possible

Depends where you're moving to, I'm likely moving there from NJ (Denver area has WAY milder winters) and I've been fine with RWD on all seasons, I think you're overthinking the rest.

It's got 200k miles, but besides that it's mechanically pretty good, passes CA smog. What should I look for when I maybe check it out Saturday? Should I go for it? Is it bad to shred up Fresh and snort it?

I dislike %90 of the available body-kits for the 180sx/240sx, but for some reason I really like the two tone Origin Labs Racing Line kit. What do you guys think? Also is $350 normal for shipping on Aero? I knew shipping was expensive, but goddamn.

What would your reaction be to the proposal for all cars to be banned? In their place, a nationwide train service would be created, with stops at regular intervals in towns and cities, as well as longer trips across the country. This would allow for faster travel (trains would travel more quickly for nationwide journeys while trains in cities would avoid traffic jams), create less air pollution and cause less deaths through road accidents.
For small journeys, roads would now be open for bicycle travel (train tracks in cities would be placed above or below street level), allowing the nation to switch to a more sustainable and healthier form of transport.
Cars could be used for leisure outside of cities, in purpose made tracks and because they would only be owned for enthusiast, there wouldn't be a problem with fumes.
So, thoughts on this?

i you think that you can create a traffic infrastructure to service rural areas that pollutes less than cars you are very mistaken
>>
>>15370847
Sure, you and your ilk can pay for it.
>>
If I'm allowed to ride a motorcycle on these roads then sure, the only reason I haven't bought one yet is other drivers in cars.

This would never happen and it would be incredibly inefficient while at the same time costing the city a shitload with having to pay for WAY more public transportation, revamping the infrastructure while also losing out on various tax revenue and fines associated with cars.

How long did it take you? I'm not there yet. I can do it but I'm either jerky or I over-rev the engine

I had a manual. Now I have an automatic.

In my manual I could never heel toe because normal cars aren't made to work like that.

So quit saying you can do it. If you can it is probably very shitty.
