Don't think we have the same motor, but I have a 05 Saturn Vue 4cyl/5spd-manual and love it. Only problem is the sunroof is a leaky sun of a bitch and the battery grounds have corroded.

1. How does tire pressure affect drivability? I know they're massively deflated for drag and racecars, but for road cars, what does it do? Heard of people adjusting for drifting, how do?

2. Can fwd drift?
(Inb4 fwd can compete fags) , couple of my friends say it can cuz muh /vg/ but I want to know.

3. How hard is it to "bolt on a turbo". Does this kill reliability? Is it meme or mandatory?

Feel free to ask your own friend-/o/s

1) changes the contact patch and how the tire reacts to load. tire pressure lets you fine tune the dynamics of your car as long as the tire stays in the optimal temperature range. but driftfags are retarded so they probably just pump them up to reduce contact patch = easier to slide.

2) no

3) a turbo isn't a bolt on mod by any stretch of the imagination. and the second part of your question is more complicated than just yes or no. on a street car with low boost, no it shouldn't affect reliability if done properly.

so what exactly am i fucking supposed to do when im driving fast to remain safe? when car crash videos are posted everyone is an expert on what he did wrong.

but what DO I DO if i go into a corner and realize i'm going a little too fast??? you're not supposed to lift on the throttle so what, just driftking the corner? what are basic "dos and donts" of driving a canyon/country road quickly. everyone seems to be an expert on this but i must have missed that class.

>what are basic "dos and donts" of driving a canyon/country road quickly
1. Know the road extremely well. Every turn, bump, patch of worn out asphalt. Think of waking up in the middle of the night and taking a piss and going back to bed without waking up completely.
2. Know your car extremely well. What it can and can't do.
3. Drive fast and hope no one from the other direction swerves into your lane.

OR

Don't be a stupid kid and drive responsibly.

>so what exactly am i fucking supposed to do when im driving fast to remain safe?
Don't think that the fact that you're doing everything to ensure your and other peoples safety (other than speeding) means someone else won't fuck up and cause your death or that you won't provoke road rage or other racebois.

TL;DR
Don't speed. You cannot speed safely.

Currently more reliable than FCA, BMW, ford, GM, Audi, VW, Mitsubishi and a bunch of others
>>
>>14001310
your statement is false. It is more reliable, you just have to know how to maintain it.

Rotory got a bad rep because most people that bought it didn't even know they were buying something other than a piston engine. Shit should have came with a pamphlet.

Why whenever I mention buying an Audi, BMW, Volvo, VW etc people alwayyyys say be prepared for high maintenance costs.
Yet Lexus, Toyota, Honda, people act like they dont need servicing or something.

Is it really going to cost so much more for me to own a 2006 Audi A3 compared to a 2006 Honda Civic?

When it breaks. And where do they have rhomboid license plates?
>>
Yes yes it will
I bought a 2006 and 2012 gti and they're both complete pieces of shit

The cam Fowler went of the mk6 and it fucked the cams and fuel pump and VW doesn't have a "fix" for the problem
>>
>>13996637
We aren't talking about oil changes when we say that. A brake job on a Volvo costs more than it does on a Toyota because the Volvo has better brakes. Better parts cost more money.

Also VW is complete shit, don't even include that in the same sentence as those other brands.
