Ever since the Cold War started, it has been THE car for enthusiasts. Not entirely a traffic car, not entirely a race car. It's just everything in one. It has been the one car to rule them all. Its design is neveraging. Its appeal universal. Everywhere in the world, a 911 is cherished and respected. If cars ever cease to exist, this will be the car featured in history books as its representative.

Id rather have the 944. Besides the 911 hasnt looked good since the 90s started.
Miata owners always ride with a male passenger. How do you explain this?
Unless it's an NA like 90% of the time I see someone driving a Miata it's a middle aged woman
>>29049483But I always ride with my wife (female) in mine
>>29049747I had one for a while, and the only person who wanted to go for rides was by buddy's wife (male).
Most sports car owners in general are incelsChad doesn't need a sports car or hobbies in general. Being 6'4" means women just throw themselves at you, why the fuck you would concern yourself with a "male hobby" when you could be fucking women?
>>29050056>Being 6'4"means you can't physically fit in a Miata. Opinion discarded.
>leave car out of shed overnight >hear loud v8 pull up at my car and stop for a while before leaving>pic related is on my window Whats the deal with mustang owners? There is a whole community behind owning one i have never experienced this before. Every time I drive past a mustang they wave its like riding motorcycles that arent Harley brothers.
>>29048192Truke.
>>29048079>it has a 302 just like the mustangThe panther low output 302 is actually considerably different from the H.O. in the Mustang and Mark VII.
It's because they're common so a large community can build around it with events and sponsors. Not a bad thing, except in Jeep's case.>>29044925People leave them on my Wrongler. I send them to my 2 and 5 y.o. nephews as extras with birthday or xmas presents.
>>29044925Why does /pol/ get so angry at this? They seem like happy people.
>>29050057They get angry and justifiably so. Its literally attention seeking behavior. A few ducks is fine. Not covering your car in beheaded dolls and painting it neon pink
I know a mechanic who works till 11 PM and he is a 23 yo. I trust him more with my cars than I trust American mechanics with 20 years of experience
I wish I could do that but zoning laws prevent me from living where I work.
A mexican trying to "hustle" isn't trustworthy, juan
I trust whoever doesn't try to say my car needs more work than I went in with. I've been a mechanic for 16 years now so I know when a scam is being pulled.
>>29047112Good goyim debt slaves
>>29047112The older a mechanic the more likely they are to do some dumb boomer shit to your car and justify it by pulling the experience card. It's always>been doing this twenny years and never had any problems sonny!!They haven't learned anything, they just do things the "old way".Best part is they're the type to hate engineers and post mechanic memes on facebook despite the fact that engineers accounting for their retardation is the only reason they've never had any problems.

Posted a while ago about my new Evo 7 and the misfires it was having. I did a boost leak test and found every coupler I could get my hands on was leaking. Plus the BISS screw o ringI think that's where the misfire is coming from (alongside MAF and MAP codes. After gapping the plugs down and getting a stronger spark it was able to ignite the extra fuel and "suppress" the misfire. Which in turn blew out the couplers more. I did the boost leak test AFTER whopping on it (stupid I know) and found the couplers were all dry rotted to the point where if I grabbed them and looked at my hand after it would be completely black from the degrading rubber. They also had the consistency of toilet paper when squeezed. Not to mention the worm clamps holding all of them together. Hopefully the silicone couplers and T-bolt clamps will fix this
>>29049723go further to the rear boxed channel where your bumper beam mounts to the body and follow it alongeven better if you stick a camera in there. pic rel was my car (maryland car from 2006->14 or 60k miles then off road for 3 years until i got it in 2017-18)
>>29049734Oh sorry I forgot to type.Previous owner in japan had it undercoated after taking out engine, trans, and rear subframe
>>29049734undercoating on newer cars got WAY betterthis is a 2016 mx5 that was driven year-round for 120k miles in comparison in much harsher long island (vs maryland)>>29049738get a inspection camera in there, just stick it in the hole there for the boxed channel, it often happens from the inside out with the worst being that part where the upper control arms mount. i dont trust nip bodywork, nothing personnel, it just happens to be crappy. your strut towers/radiator support look good at least, those get little surface rusting but when its bad enough it can get terminal (will rust from inside out). other big annoying rot spot is the gas tanks especially when you have to pull the fuel pump and snap the studs off. first thing i did on mine was use lots of kroil + time to avoid that then lots of antiseize on the threads. https://www.autotorque.net/chassis-leg-replacement/link is a evo 6 but its the same underneath from evo 4-9
>>29049546>if it doesn't come on EVERY SINGLE CAR then it's not commonAFMs are common because they're common wrenchlet-kun, it's not some obscure EFI sensor that only came on one car and no one's ever heard of before.The fact that you have zero knowledge outside of your own particular car proves how much of a wrenchlet you are, the fact that you still insist on telling other people about their own cars despite your admitted lack of knowledge proves how retarded you are.
>>29049284fixing boost leaks on a 4g63 is like step one. the ecu's are SO fucking reliant on proper airflow. Ironically, airflow is what people mess with the most be it physically or in the ecu.
90s exotics were actually fun, fast and engaging. Now it seems like everything is just giga fast and heavy. Are these cars genuinely fun or just exciting due to novelty?
Never driven an exotic but I fault a 6 figure car and it's pretty fun.
>>29048984>Are these cars genuinely fun or just exciting due to novelty?People got tired of dreaming about cars they can't have.Back then, if you were really stupid, you could bag one pretty cheap because they depreciated really hard. That's not the case anymore. Even an absolute shitheap in a salvage yard commands huge prices.
>>29049016If you really did drive these (I've also had a go in these + a few others) on the road and in traffic, then I guess you'd probably agree that the Testa is great, the F40 is fast and brutal, but you'd daily the 360 all day every day. (Also, I enjoy the 360 sound quite a bit more than any on that list, but that's personal preference of course.)
>>29049020I'm sure his uncles r30 would have been more fun to drive than some neutered modern exotic.
>>29049948The testarossa felt heavier to steer but not heavier to drive (at least at lower speeds) but was actually slow to me because at that point i was used to a fast car doing 60 in 4 or less. The 360 was nice but it did feel more like a fast gt car than race car. The f40 was probably the most raw and if you told me there was a single sheet of paper connecting the body to the chassis id believe it. It felt like a go kart on giga steroids. The f1 was closer to the f40 in feel but sounded different and was far faster with a far less forgiving clutch and a friction point that barely existed. The f40 was the most stripped down race car of them all. The f1 was the coolest. The others were fun but nothing extraordinarily special.
Why the hell is the E46 Compact so heavy compared to the E36 Compact? 90s random shitbox sedans are 200kg+ lighter
The E46 has 50-70% more torsional rigidity, that increases weight Anon. Same thing when the Fox went to the SN95, weight went up a couple hundred pounds but torsional rigidity went up 44% percent and bending went up 56% in coupes and convertibles went up 80% and 40% in the same categories.
>>29049599The N46 is pretty good in my experience, my winter beater E46 has been around for over 8 years, and I also knew some people with with N46 cars, none had issues that you wouldn't also get on a 6cyl (cooling sytem, valve cover gaskets, vanos stuff)There were some issues with chain tensioners, but those either got fixed or the car blew up 15 years ago. And as a bonus it sips fuelYou can get a lot more car for the money if you go with an E46, not quite as old and crusty, less appealing to the wrong crowds. Much better choice if yu don't have the space and tools to do serious jobs on itMost E36 compacts have the 1,9l M44 btw
>>29049620oof that looks scuffedAre the cheap "conversion kits" like this any better?
There is just 1 review of that listing and it's bad and it looks fucking atrocious...
>>29049599>Also - is the front end a plug and play to slap on from a sedan, or is it different?None of the sheet metal is shared and the only exterior parts that are straight swaps are pretty much just the wheels and wiper blades. Swapping in a regular E46 front end effectively requires quite a bit of custom fabrication.>>29049986They suck because E46 Compacts are a niche thing and most owners just embrace the wacky looks. There just isn't much of a market which makes the cheap options extra shitty by default.
I love my 2005 camry but FUCK it’s boring af to drive. I’m at 320k on this bitch and I’m thinking of buying a new car. Is there any car that’s somewhat reliable and yet not an anemic experience?
