what car was featured in the "what is love" snl skit with jim carrey?
>>28801513>>28801516Wouldn't it be way easier to buy some absolute dogshit roller for a couple hundred bucks and pull the windows out than to build a whole prop car?It's clearly got parts of the interior still too, air vents, sun visor
>>28801544Looks like the right dash, but the seats look much older
>>28801561That's what they did, watch the skit and look at how fucked up the interior is. The windshield is missing and the roof is dented to fuck.

>>28797031Lol, typical that. The brakes on the Clark started failing at one point, but the boss actually got it fixed. I think because I told the boss and he had a go, almost crashing into a roller door, he decided it was worth the fix.

>>28796369Pic related, but only in the parking lot to make way.I drove one of this twice >>28796419, but with a sikhammer at rhe back. I didnt know the wheels have 2 mods of turning and the first time I was not understanding why it was not going where I wanted. It was night and I had to walk backwards, no space to turn and I could not see the back wheels were also turning with my front. And damn, their front part is so heavy, even when empty. Lifting it too fast raises my butt like a overloaded forklift.>>28797492 I worked with one of these for a full day, one size smaller tho. Had no overhead and both wheels were metal. Shaked my ass like crazy, but fun. First time in my life I saw a soil plot so shiny and flat.While I usually drive a 3.5t forklift, I had to download a few cars with a forklift maybe twice that weight for somebody once. The pallets were actually not bigger than my usual, but they only had that one forklift. It was sooo sloooooow, but indeed also felt like a tank.>>28797031Fuck you. It has been years, and I did not need to remember that.
Am I retarded and missing something or did the Cars.com app remove the "advanced search" filters off the app and replace it with a worthless AI search bar?
Found a screenshot of the old interface. Simple things like searching by price and year seem to be missing from the new interface.
My theory is this isn't simple incompetence by the company but more sinister. Them making it harder to find stuff you want and instead rely on some AI prompt generation instead of simple filters will force you to have to search multiple times over and thus they'll have more opportunities to show you ads.
This app force updated on me I was just on here earlier this week and the "advanced search" bar was still there.Are there any other Car buying websites or apps y'all use? Craigslist isn't as popular anymore. Auto trader still has normal search filters but I find ads stay up far too long on there
We really didn't realize how good we had, eh?

Why aren't cars this beautiful anymore?is it the lust for agressive styling from consumers that's ruining the purity of design or is it safety regulations ie pedestrian safety that's making everything look mid, or downright ugly
>>28799262>>28799268these are super cheap now, you can get a low miles one for like 5 grand
>>28801109Because they're crap
>>28800608It's not traditional jag but it's a nice, simple and coheisve design. All the body lines go somewhere and there's enough of a flare to the rear three quarters to give it some presence. Given that this was the fastest one they did besides the project 8 it could be more aggressive with some wider arches and a bit more going on at the rear but it's a good looking car IMO
>>28798553the damage is donethey lost sales of cars unrelated to the new design
>>28801109getting them fixed is the expensive part

>>28801168fuck. so i discovered that my car can't go down the highways for too long lest it overheat. mind you, the guy that filled up the radiator just used straight demin water with redline water wetter. It fills up the overflow bottle and sometimes pukes it out if it gets hot enough. Interestingly, it hasn't lost enough to actually reach the level the factory manual says to fill to ("1.25 inch below filler neck seat")...yet.Also seems to have a heat soak problem that not even my fiberglass fuel line insulation nor the composite spacer could prevent. Just have to remember to keep cranking with the pedal pushed down a bit till it turns over.And as for the carb cheater...i has LOGS. just gotta figure out how to get them off the phone though lul.
>>28801567alright so it looks like you do need an internet connection if you wanna actually see a graph of the logs. Once it does that, beneath the graph is a data key that you can note down somewhere if you wanna read the log later.The offline viewer is just lines of text but I think you can enter that into the 'Input Raw Data' field on their site to get a graph. Haven't tested though.Pic related was driving through the suburbs. If you wanna take a look, go to the home page of the carb cheater website, bottom of that page, then copy the filename of pic related into the data key fieldI haven't had the time yet to really dial it in since the exhaust upgrade. I kinda fucked it because it was running pretty good before but I thought the AFRs were way too high when I should've just looked at the vacuum while I was screwing with the idle mix screws.
>>28801569oops forgot to turn off dark reader addon
>>28801572fuck it. dark reader might be easier on the eyes. you guys can also see the graph yourselves with the data keys too.>CJuJZnarrowed it down to the first 30 secs after hitting the record button. Seems like this engine likes to idle at 1000 rpm, judging by the significantly increased vacuum at that particular rpm. Quite surprised since the factory manual idle rpm is usually around 550-600 although it's slightly different depending on the carb so that might not be a good reference.

Elon already censored accounts in Brazil, India and Turkey at the request of those governments, he will 100% comply with some milquetoast EU transparency laws despite all the seething and kvetching.
crazy how the corvette continues to dominate bigly c9 prolly outperform f1 cars at this rate
>>28795914Eh, anon power tracks skew things.The best handling track car I've ever driven was a Miata cup car.Lap times weren't all that good on tracks that favored power over handling.But not even GT3s could touch that Miata in the slower corners
>>28797900My 92 ZR1 is worth more than that C3, you imbecile. So are most C6s. Way to out yourself as a dipshit moron. C4 hate is so overdone and im tired of you midwits shitting on them, a gen that is basically objectively better in every single goddamn metric over a C3 other than looks (and only if its a chrome bumper). C3s are dogshit and I only posted one because of faggots like you making comments like these.

If you wanted to build a lightweight fox body and I suppose this applies to some other cars, is the 2-door desirable because it has less glass or is the added weight of the 3-door considered to be worth it because the weight is over the back wheels and improves overall weight distribution?
>>28799378it does make a good looking rally car
>>28799383My lower arm (the one that matters) is better than yours.
>>28798746The hatchbacks have a LOT less body stiffness, which doesn't particularly matter if you're gonna add a roll-bar with a crossbrace. Weight is almost identical.
>>28798792>what effect adding a weight to very back of car would haveNever add needless weight on an overhang as it will make the car less stable. So if you move your battery, place as far forward in the trunk as you can without putting it over the rear axle. Racers who have to add weight usually place it on the rear passenger floorboards.
>>28799068wow, its like a solid axle but with extra steps

>>28799568>retarded and angry the drivers here in AustraliaOn that subject: I usually start work between 4am and 6am. It's reasonable to assume that the other cars I see at that time are also mostly commuting to work. About 3kms from my place there is a T-junction with a stop sign. Cops love to sit in the shadows about 200m from this intersection. I have seen them dozens and dozens of times on this route. I stop for all stop signs, because I'm not retarded, but I especially stop for that one. I can safely presume that 99% of the other drivers on that route have also seen the hiding piggies. I am not exaggerating when I say that 80%+ of other cars do NOT stop at that stop sign. They are simply not bright enough to work out that the "reward" of getting to work two seconds earlier is not worth the risk of a $530 fine. Adelaide residents are the dumbest sacks of shit on the planet.

>>28780953Tested 3 of six ignition coils and all worked fine. Took fuel pump and fuel injector relays out. Took all six spark plugs out. A bit black and gap is slightly larger than should be.

Im 35 and can't drive
>>28801332I think I can live with that
>>28801339It's too late to start. Most people learn to drive between ages 15-17. Learning to drive later in life is similar to learning a second language as an adult. It'll never feel natural to you.
Is an auction a good place to get a shitty car to practice troubleshooting and working on to eventually either sell or use as a winter beater?
>>28801423I've bought two cars from copart. Yes, you can pick up cars for under $1000, but it's a roll of the dice. It's not worth it if the vehicle ends up needing a transmission or whatever. Cars from craigslist or facebook you can test drive, and they're not even much more expensive. It's the best way to buy a beater.
