Hydraulic pressure from throttle and small computer circuits

>>15044924
In modern cars, the ECU reads the throttle pressure and downshifts/upshifts.
In some cars like Rolls Royces or even the S Class, even the GPS is used to map the gears you'll need for a given section of the road.

Because a normal car should be able to handle a pot hole... If you wanna be a stancefag on cut springs and low profiles that's your problem, not the governments.

>>15052327
Nope.

Governments job is to provide usable safe infrastructure for taxpayers, they're definitely the ones at fault if the roads can't support legal vehicles that pass inspections or fall under road/transportation laws.

what's a good car to wrench on in australia?
I was thinking an old holden v8 with a chevy small block because there are heaps of cheap parts.

made the mistake of buying my first car which was a JDM and only produced in a single year. fucking impossible to find spares.

re-asking here

Would a bad shifter ball bushing cause enough play for the transmission to not hold 1st gear properly? it goes into 1st fine, even when moving, but unless I hold it, it flops around, and will occasionally pop out of gear if I'm not careful. vehicle is a 91 Hilux, if that matters. I already replaced the rubber seal that sits in the shifter hole, which did eliminate a lot of the shifter slop in general. i noticed that the little flat plastic bushing on the bottom of the shifter would rotate freely on the ball. not sure if it's supposed to do that or not.

Read your state/county laws about claiming an abandoned vehicle.

>>15047918
In my province if I claim it as abandoned, because it's in a parking lot and not my property it goes to auctions and it sold for fair value

>>15047929
Damn. Where I am, you can get the title for abandoned vehicles pretty easy

Engine speculation
what engine do you think the 2017 Z28 will use?
Possibilities:
n/a modified LT1
Supercharged LT4
DOHC (variable cab lobe) LT5

The LT5 hasnt been used since the mid 90s. At that time it doubled the price of the vette it was put into. GM is too in love with the pushrod, and its fanbase would probably just call a DOHC V8 a ford type motor, which would be bad for sales.
>>
>>15039171
GM renewed the Lt5 name 2 years ago alongside the Lt1 and LT4 trademarks.
>>
>>15039197
What are they using it in? I didn't know they revived the nameplate. Is it actually a DOHC motor?

Side note: So fucking excited for the 2nd version of this, with EV's to supplement the low end power for a crazier launch.

They got it down to 2.4 seconds with raw power alone, imagine this fucker with instant electric torque.
