Hometown Heros Anonymous 2016-03-19 02:25:06 Post No. 14670313 [Report] [View this topic]

Ok, so here's what I'm thinking.

Every general area (US, Europe, Asia) has a list of cars that are big heros, big names that are the best that nation can provide, known worldwide for their performance, Viper, SLS AMG, GT-R. And a local hero, one that amidst a low point of heavy regulations or taxation of that area still was very much so able to be the best that it can be, if only for what would suit their local market's desires best.

For example, for the US we have the Corvette and Mustang. There are more but let's just list these two for now. Everybody loves the Vette and the Stang. Big performers that play a big game with the big boys and soforth. Compared to big name vehicles of other countries.

But we also have our local hero, even if past their time nowadays, of the Grand National and Mustang SVO, which during the malaise era signaled the return of horsepower to America. However, outside of our regulatory and cultural boundaries they would have been shunned because it did not fit their regulations or culture, for example issues with handling, displacement taxes, size, and the like would have arisen.

Would anybody else agree?

Would a Suzuki Cappuccino be an example of a local hero for Japan? It was sporty enough to be fun while fitting into the kei category to keep it affordable and under the heavy size and displacement taxes, however it'd be too weak and small for Europe who's restrictions weren't as bad, and in America it would be considered uncomfortably cramped and painfully gutless.

Hey /o/ I have a problem. I have an 02 wrx and I can't pump gas into it full throttle. I have to barely trickle it in or else it bubbles up like it's filled. The research I did said if that's the issue its the evap purge solenoid but I don't have a cel and the ones I looked at did. Thoughts? Pic unrelated

So i'm thinking about pulling the plug on these style 224's painted metallic gunmetal grey. Would they look good on my space grey e92 or not be dark enough? If I buy these i'm throwing pilot super sports on immediately with them. Just wanted a second opinion before I pull the trigger

Spring project because I want to drive it in the summer, but it's just about ready to go. Previous owners got it most of the way done, and I've just been finishing up small things, but once I get the carbs tuned and the air cleaners arrive from Sweden she'll be good to go.

My fat sister drives a 2007 v6 automatic mustang. It even matches her boycut red-dyed hair. She's "pansexual", loves bernie, has been to the hospital twice for pretending to be so triggered that she had seizures (which the docs couldn't prove were real), and wont respond to me because I dont use "gender neutral pronouns". After all this she still claims to somehow be fully fledged christian. I'm pretty sure that counts as confirmed.

Guys I want to start a car project with my two mates.
We're all 18, and the aim is to buy something really crap and eventually work our way up to a sleeper.
Any suggestions? (Budget is <£1000 to buy the car itself)
