Lol the mud is like an inch deep. Neighbors who have lived here for something like 11 years and haven't seen anything like this.

E46 M3, WRX, have GTOs gotten that cheap yet?

>>15521422
What? Happened?

>>15521423
Dunno yet for this area. Was thinking about getting manual again, I got autotragic for my work commute and was gonna get a project car to weekend drive. Commute ended up not being too bad.

>>15521449
what do you want actually?

>>15521429
Crazy flash food. Hasn't rained in over a week, got 4 inches overnight.

>>15521451
I'm thinking used Lexus, maybe Fiesta ST.
Too soon to tell

>>15521466
test driving it is then i guess

>>15521466
If you go the Lexus route, check out IS300s. Probably a bit older than what you can afford, but 15k is plenty for a clean low mileage manual IS300 plus a very healthy budget for maintenance (lol) and mods. It's a great platform too - it comes with a 2jz-ge and a near perfect weight distribution.

>>15521479
That's what I was thinking in the way of lexus. Also had g35 and mazdaspeed6 in mind. Are focus ST's still having heat issues?

>>15521494
Speed6s are cool but they're memes. They're fwd until the gas pedals floored

>>15521715
True. They have tons of aftermarket, that's where most of my interest came from.

>>15521290
Here's an idea: read the sticky.

>>15522022
But I'm not poor.

>>15521290
Damage doesnt look too horrible, you gonna sell it or is insurance taking it?

>>15521290

Replace the carpet and seats for a couple grand and keep it. Just let it air out before you put the new stuff in.

Gonna let insurance have at it. The water was well above the intake and likely seeped past the throttle body. Not even going to attempt to fix that sort of damage. It even released the hood latch, I guess it shorted it?

Deeeeeece

Former Lexus employee here. If you can find an IS 300 that wasn't assfucked by some daddy's money boyracer fucking get it. You'll have the keys for 3k-5k with all that money left over to get that 2JZ back to what it's SUPPOSED to be, and still have some left over. I recommend getting tires, rotors and pads that won't wear out in a 15k miles because "muh ride quality," Lexus loves to give it's sportier stuff really soft shit. Make sure the pads and rotors are matched, don't get aftermarket pads and keep the stock rotors or vice versa.

I've always wanted an IS in a Swedish M90 camo wrap with an obnoxious 90's GT spoiler.

that really fucking sucks. I had 2 cars flood so far. 1st time it was my old shitbox so I just removed the interior and power washed it, let it dry in sun. meanwhile I worked on changing all fluids cleaning out my intake, and it started right up

2nd time was a brand new car and I went through insurance since it hit the dash (RIPPERINO). ended up financing something cheaper after

technically there was a 3rd time but it was a family vehicle, and my brother was dumb enough to move his car when it was already high enough to reach his intake
>mfw he called me the next morning saying he stalled out
had to pull spark plugs then water shot out when we cranked it. intake and everything also came out. car smelled like absolute fucking death since he never wanted to remove the interior

no please go order one of fuck off normie

>>15522379
Did you not see "flash flood watch is in effect until x:xx"? How close are you to this fucking creek/pond? You could easily attempt to fix this.

>>15522492
you're going on the list

>>15522484
Nah it happened in the middle of the night. Didn't hear it go off because of that whole sleeping thing

>>15522484
>>15522550
Might also add that the water was up to the dash. So if by "easily" you mean have to completely gut my car and disassemble the dash. And figure out the engine damage, that's the big unknown.

>>15522593
Who even are you

>>15522467

DO NOT RESPOND TO THE OBVIOUS TROLL

Hit a deer and totalled my Subaru Outback. After the settlement check and selling the car I'm coming out with like $3300, which is a lot more than I expected.

Can you say that in a measurement for 1st world people?

>>15523740
4 european dingywingies

>>15523751
I said 1st world, not UK.

>>15523740
Sure, 4 inches.
Oh wait, you don't understand what "first world" means, do you?

>>15523740
It boggles the mind that 3rd worlders can speak roughly 3 irrelevant languages but cant comprehend a slightly different scale of numeric measurement.

Clearly you don't.


>>15523823
Can, but I'm not gonna bother myself with a shit system.

2007-09 Legacy Spec B's are just above your budget. 2.5GT's are cheaper and easier to find, if you're willing to give up the STI 6 speed.

>>15523941

this only made 100hp while being 2,000kg empty, the problem was
>light as fuck rear end
>RWD
>failed front brakes
after the crash, I've been heading down the cliff to get parts off it to sell since the drive train is very valuable because diesel. one thing i found, the left side rotor was completely locked up, when draining the fluid, engine coolant came out, the only explanation for this is the brake lines run through the oil cooler which is a water-fluid exchange. so that was at least a contributing factor to the sudden over steering->catastrophic under steer i experienced.

Apparently the G35/G37 are pretty damn reliable. They use the Q engines I believe? And those are known to be their good engine.

>>15529727
I fully intend to upgrade the suspension and add sway bar w/ strut brace. It will certainly handle it's weight better at that point.

I also have 18x8 rims with my summer tires that I saved from my now boat. They use the same bolt pattern.

>>15529695
