I'm looking to upgrade my old Camry with something new. I was looking at the Mazda 6.

How are these things to drive? Does Mazda have any plans for the MS6 to come out again?

2007 Hybrid with nearly 500k miles on it. It's due for yet another battery change and work which would amount to nearly $10k between a transmission rebuild, battery replacement, and a few other things.

I make $110k a year, credit isn't super good due to being foreclosed during the housing crisis (low-700s now).

I want a LS-swapped fc3s.

How much should I expect to pay to build one? I see people selling them for ~15k w/ a LS1. Am I better off buying someone else's completed car? I would do the labor, but my mechanical skills are limited to simple maintenance.

If those cars are considered "pretty nice" for a 240sx now a days I feel sorry for yall lil niggas. Same fate as the AE86 which is a shame.
>>

240sx carries a hefty rice tax, goo luck finding a clean one that wasn't modded

OP they're both gay, but the purple one is less gay

Hey /o/. I'm thinking about buying a Miata again. I say again because I used to own an NA. It gave me loads of trouble mechanically and I ended up scrapping it when the head warped and the clutch blew out.
This time around I'm planning on buying an NC or NB.
I guess my question is, why do I always hear people on /o/ talk so much shit about NC Miatas? Is it because they're still too expensive for /o/ to afford therefore makes /o/ salty?
Are there any real reasons why the NC doesn't stack up well compared to NB or NA?
Enlighten me /o/.

>Is it because they're still too expensive for /o/ to afford therefore makes /o/ salty?
People say this constantly to defend their frivolous spending and general lack of car knowledge but it's almost never true.
>LMAO I JUST LEASED AN ENTRY LEVEL 3 SERIES U MAD POORFAGS XDD

Anyway the NC looks bloated as fuck and isn't really as engaging to drive as the NB. It's fine as a standalone sports car but for a Miata which is built around MUH FEELS it doesn't really cut it. I'll get crucified for this but the NB is also a lot better to drive than the NA.
>>
>>15192903
Also for what it's worth the ND got it right and in general great to drive and well-built so it's not like sour grapes are really an influence here.
>>
>>15192861
NC is great man, all miatas are. People just get mad that it's the heaviest miata and it has a lot of body roll stock. It's only like 2450 lbs. Makes 170 hp though

The aftermarket is good, there are lots of mods available, swaps as well. They look pretty good too imo.

NC is also probably the easiest miata to daily drive and probably the most comfortable.

/o/ are throttle body spacers just a meme? I got one from a "mechanic" friend who claims it adds like 10bhp

>>15192846
just a meme
the only spacers that MIGHT work (just might, depending on the engine) are intake runners spacers
think porting and polishing the intake and divide the benefits by 10
>>
>>15192846
what the fuck lol, they're just adapters, the only time anything with '"spacers"is used is with plenum spacers.

If you get a 80mm adapter and port match the intake manifold now you're going to see gains if the runners are wide enough to accommodate the amount of air... there's a lot of variables.
>>
>>15192901
porting isn't the same as shaping or cleaning flashings.

and a lot of older engines get a lot of gains from port shaping and combustion chamber shaping.

>>15192846
it does literally nothing.

My premium rose around policy renewal, I tried fighting it and then other issues crept up that I had to deal with, so I sat down at looked at other companies, other insurance companies are way lower I've found, and when I got my abstract back from my insurance now, it has an accident that never occurred on it, I was never sent a letter.. I was never contacted, this is the first time I've seen it and yet I've been paying the extra premium on it monthly for 4 months now

Can I take them to small claims court and sue or what's going on? They've fucked me around a lot in the past and this is just the final straw.

Hey /o/, could use some help. Today while driving my car started thumping for a split second anytime I'd accelerate from a dead stop in 1st gear. Well about 10 minutes into that drive it started thumping horribly loud constantly at any speed. First thought was driveshaft so I took off the shifter boot and saw this bolt was completely popped out. Would that cause this? If so what's the best way to get it back in?
Car is a 1991 nissan 240sx.

Whatever its attached to is worn out, aka the nut at the end or the threading in what it goes through

Lots of vibration happens in that area, and as soon as something comes a little bit loose it'll wear out ten times as fast
>>
First, inspect the whole shaft. Then rotate the shaft until that bolt is at the bottom, then tighten.
>>
Your car is rear wheel drive so check the bearing supporting the driveshaft. you will have to jack up the rear of the car and look for it. same vibrating thing happened to me and thats because the rubber support has blown apart and the driveshaft flaps about under your car now. i speak with experience of this problem. very simple fix
