No ECU bullshit at least. Might need a new driveshaft and possibly rear end if the gearing is different. But if you are capable of dropping the old trans, go for it.

What do you think of the Yaris WRC?

What does /o/ think of speed bumps? Do you speed over them or do you stop like a cuck?

I'd bust my oil pan if I kept going the same speed over one. The speed bumps in my area are notoriously shotty and have caused tons of damage to cars even to people who weren't speeding.

It's not being a "cuck" it's simply not wanting to destroy my car.

So my baby blew an engine 4 weeks ago. Every week I call the engine guy to see if he has one in. No luck. I am calling him soon.

Comment "GET ME POWER" to increase my chances of getting an engine for her. It's hard to find one.

So how are 4th gen Chevy Caprices?

Panther cars are still going strong after this long,but the 4th gen Caprice sort of disappeared off the face off the earth past the mid 90's. you can barely even find them used.

There's a used one for sale near me, seems good condition, not sure if i should bother with it

GM's B-body cars are just as great as the panther cars. They just take a bit more work to handle as decently.

I guess so. I mean what idiot would pay $1200 for 10 years which is his car note when I'm pretty sure the car won't last for 10 years. Shit even his door handles are falling apart after less than a year and a half.

So I'm trying to sell my 98 Saturn
Help me find out how much it's worth
Pros
>88000 miles one it
>ac works
Cons
>front brakes tie rods and rotors need to be replaced
>interior needs to be reupholstered
>power windows don't work
How much would you sell it for?
How much would you buy it for?
Should I trade it in?
Should I fix it? How much do you think that would cost?
Thank you in advance, I wish I knew more about cars like you guys

I'm considering it. I'm broke right now however. Had to move back in with parents (ugh) after breaking up with my girl. Just quit drinking too so I'm just trying to get back on track and not sure what my best options are. How much is it usually to replace the brakes rotors and tie rods on a 98 Saturn?

So i bought an e39 about a month ago and it needs to be fixed up because the previous spic owner was too poor to do any maintenance and just wanted a good looking car.

it needs the valve cover gaskets replaced, belts changed, and the brakes got soft one day so i need to hopefully just bleed the brakes, since the guy claimed to have just replaced the pads.

my question is how do i do a brake job on this car? i've honestly never worked on a car ever but everything else has tutorials online and im not a complete idiot. any help would honestly be appreciated since i havent been able to drive the fucking car since it isnt safe. thanks

also, ive noticed a really dangerous thing that happens sometimes. i'll be driving and when i try to come to a stop, the car would just turn off. the lights flicker but come back on but the engine stays off. this is really dangerous because it could easily cause an accident.

I've done some research and saw it could be the ignition switch failing but wanted a second opinion or to see if anyone has had this happen. really fucked issue.
>>
You're worse than the previous spic for buying it. What you couldn't tell if the cover is leaking?
>>
>>15084439
idc about a leaking valve cover, i can change that easily, its about the other things that i didnt know about
