Is rwd really that important

For a sports car to be a sports car absolutely. Rwd is required for high speed and precise handling. However in an economy car it's not important and maybe even disadvantageous. similar to automatic versus manual

If pic related, drilled rotors are for ricers. They do nothing but reduce braking performance and induce cracking if you end up racing it. Or just come off the freeway and slow down quickly.

Guess what nigger, manual's aren't as great as people make them out to be. They're real fun when you're hooning about or on the track, but 90% of the time they're just an inconvenience.

I want a corolla wagon super bad. But I don't know what year.
I do not plan on modding. I want it to stay stock.
>old RWD
They are RWD and neat but more expensive than newer, harder to find parts, and carbureted
>new fwd
Easier to get parts, EFI, and far cheaper, but FWD and less neat

/o/,

I picked up a used car and I wanted to do a flush on all the fluids. However, when reading about flushing the transmission I became a little hesitant.

From what I understand, it seems to be perfectly fine to do IF the car wasn't abused and had it changed at regular intervals.

Some claim that flushing the transmission will do more harm than good and could potentially even make the transmission fail.

Anyone have experience with doing a flush on a high mileage car that was abused by the previous owner?

Ive read that you should just replace the old fluid with new fluid and not flush it. Clean the filter and all that.
Apparently a flush can destroy the crap holding the gaskets together and the new fluid will start to leak.
>>
>>13870502
Don't flush the transmission, just change the fluid.

if the trans was never serviced, leave it be
my brother changed the trans oil on a Toyota with 250K miles

What do you carfags think of motorcyclists riding between your lanes when you're stuck in traffic?
82 posts and 7 images submitted.
>>
I either don't care, wish I was on one, or am busy laughing at the drivers who are desperately trying to swerve out of the way.
>>
Why would you care unless you were jealous?
As long as they're not squeezing through spots barely large enough for them to fit through then more power to them.
>>
>>13870144

When I'm in traffic like that, all four lanes are trying to change to the opposite side of the road for exits anyway, so you would probably die trying to ride between them.

I bought this, but not for 5500, don't worry. At least, I have arranged to buy it (already drove up, took a look at it, test drove, etc) and later this week due to complications he'll be driving it down so we can finalize the exchange.

What does /o/ think? MemeR2 is best meme car

looks good, but just give the engine mounts n shit a really good look. i looked at purchasing a silvertop swapped aw11 at one point, had it inspected by a mechanic (was interstate) and the mechanic said the engine mounts were fucked/was a dodgy swap.

I recently bought a used toyota corolla 08 with 128k miles. For some reason when the car is on P the motor will shake for like 3 seconds. Other than that the car drives fine. Is this something I should worry about? Any help would be appreciated.

What happens to the RPM when the engine is shaking?
>>
>>13869868
Check the engine mounts.
>>
>>13869875
I can't check at the moment. Should the RPM not rise when car is idle?
