<------?

Still got the Newport?

If I didn't have a 300ZX I'd try an S12

Yes you can improve the handling without fucking it up.

First off, what year and model? From the pic I could've sworn it was a town car before I looked close.

it's an 87 Chrysler 5th avenue.

The magnum from the Ram drops right in, 5.9 liter

for the handling I'd get a new set of struts, they've probably never been replaced and the average life for a set from the factory is about 50K

QFT.

Hit up the junkyard for a Diplomat or Gran Fury cop car.Entire suspension will drop in.

Looks like a bunch of gaping assholes going out to Screw with people.Fucking puddle pirates.They used to save lives & help people,now they think they can fuck with people 24/7.

And yes,it's personal.Assholes tore my boat apart looking for "contraband".Didn't find shit,and cruised away leaving me with a destroyed boat that had to be towed in.My attorney said there was no point in suing for damages ($14,000 in repairs),the puddle pirates are protected from liability by federal law.

Just curious,anyone else had a run-in with these fuckholes?

I'd love to get to a track, and there are plenty that are relatively close. Same with AutoX events. I could go. But I'm a poorfag, and can't afford to drive there, then spend all day at the track/event, and drive back. Plus, my car hasn't been exactly running it's best lately.

If you want to be emberrassed by an 03 hyundai accent come to cali and I'll show you whats what

autoX/solo2/rally guy here.

Havn't been out lately.

i'm assuming OP is in europe/uk. Come to canada, there is tournaments everywhere.

2003 hyundai accent? lmfao

>>5692 Grand Marquis would be awesome for autocross.One of our locals runs an Olds Vista cruiser.Fastest in his class.

thats about right for a car with that power to weight ratio..

What timing work did you do? that probably did it.

I put that same engine in my ford aspire and it's kind of fun to drive now.

In order of probability..#1 Loose battery cable #2 dead battery #3 Large dead animal wrapped around fan.#4 your vehicle has partially slipped into an alternate reality.

Just buy a splitter/adapter that plugs into your cigarette lighter, instead of being a fuckwit and trying to split a wire that provides constant (depending on the car) power. Doing that will most likely end in a short circuit that would render your cigarette lighter and other accessories (and maybe your car, depending on how the circuits are wired) useless. You can get a splitter at your local walmart (or equivalent), or an auto parts store for a few bucks.

shitty troll is shitty

the wires behind the cigarette lighter aren't under constant power, I know its possible to split 'em, and it just looks better to do so. I'm just looking for some pro-tips.

Kind of comparable: I have 6 speakers on a radio for 4, works like a charm. Not sure if it's the same with this kind of thing though.

Don't plug too many things into the cigarette lighter or you'll start blowing fuses. It's probably only 10 amps. I would wire the heating pads to another circuit to distribute the load, and you could keep the navigation system plugged into the cig lighter.

dont sweat it man, I piss off rednecks who ride my ass and other shit all the time, never had it come back on me.

You never did it in front of me.You'd remember.Why not just get the FUCK out of the way?

Thanksgiving is coming up-- don't forget that the city dump is closed on Thanksgiving.

Depends what he means by "it takes a minute or two".
Does it mean, "You'll spend a minute or two trying before it actually turns over", or, "It'll turn over but you gotta let that thing idle with yo' foot on the gas for a minute or two or it jus' gonna die."

Makes all the difference.
Any old Bus/Bug like that that hasn't been done up for performance needs to be treated kindly.
I NEVER take out my Bug, even on a mild morning, without warming it up for 2 -3 minutes first.
Cold days? It'll take on the first try, but if I try going anywhere without at least 5 minutes of idling, it'll just bog out and die.

This. My bus likes a few minutes to warm up. It's good for it anyway. Wait until the choke has opened a bit.

Starters are rebuilt cheaply if you find a send to company that does them and alternators.

my 84 300ZX is the same way

this probably deserves its own thread... BUT i lazied HOWEVER

Now that you've got a nice car in mind, find a road..

search Transfăgărăşan on google maps.... hhollllyyyy roMANIA!

spoooooon

Any camaro I could get my hands on.

% A mustang would be fine too actually %

spoilertext fail?

They hate humanity.

Sucks for "your brother".

But seriously OP, where do you live? In Illinois at least they are decent people. As a whole DMV workers here seem more bored than malevolent. The one by where I lived got totally overhauled and is relatively efficient considering it is government run

The california DMV is truly hell on earth.

Have fun OP, don't die.

Lol 7 grand for the base model FWD shit heap.
Enjoy the DSM sports car reliability on your SL people mover, OP.
And you over paid by about 3 grand.

You got ripped the fuck off OP. This is just the first page of listings for the particular car in my local news paper classified ads. Fuck from the looks of it I could get the VR4 version for $5000.

OP here

I kno 7K was steep but it wasn't a private seller, it was a dealership. Also, I had them put in a new stereo system, so that accounts for a bunch of it. Plus now I get free oil changes and tire rotations every 5000 miles.

I've been loving the thing so far. In the past week i've only seen ONE other one...it's good to be original

Hay dood, you live in Utah too!?
