cars

[ember bobcat]

but its peeling now and it just doesnt look good

[prime valve]

Bruh what a waste

I like the CLS

Its like a A7 but more classy

[ember bobcat]

yea i watched a motortrend video from like 2012 comparing it to the A7 and jaguar XJ something

[prime valve]

Also fully blacked out it looks real nice

[ember bobcat]

and this is way better than all the other apparently

yea

horrible ride due to the thin tires though imo

they are also summer tires

[prime valve]

Jaguars are trash

nothing to really compare too

they are real cheap inside

[ember bobcat]

yea sat in one a few years ago when i was at a dealer for them

every single knob squeaked

they have nice interiors but the quality is just horrible

[prime valve]

Yeah my dad was like let me buy one

Did my research made him go for a test drive

never spoke about the car

[ember bobcat]

lol

my dad doesnt like any of those cars

he likes his laramie ram

[prime valve]

Chonk car

My dad likes his German cars

Also cars like that are pricy in Europe

My plan is to get a car from merica and import it to europe

[ember bobcat]

my dad hates them all lol always says that they arent built the same here

[prime valve]

I mean Merican cars are just chonk

overbuilt by a mile than a german

Germans are built for economy

Unlike Merican cars they are just built to work

[ember bobcat]

yea

[prime valve]

I really like LS engines wish they had some in the EU

But idk how it would pass emissions

[stoic ledge]

Did you mean any car

[prime valve]

No

I need answers

[stoic ledge]

Need to see it IRL first

Two-tone definitely isn't helping

[prime valve]

new BMW 7 series

[bitter compass]

Can we go back to where the i3 and i8 were the worst looking bmws?

i8 aged well tho 👀

[prime valve]

Not a fan

Mainly because its kinda trash for what it is

[fathom socket]

bmw i8 was bad looking?

Why can't people take care of their cars :(

Look at that rust man

The car is 10 years newer than my truck and I have no rust on it smh.

[fathom socket]

sometimes you can't win.

cough cough my old ford focus mk1

[prime valve]

Yes

[fathom socket]

I never thought i8 was bad looking

But i3 yes

[prime valve]

I dont like it coz its slow

3 cylinder over engineered

[charred depot]

cant fail me on a corroded seatbelt reinforcement plate if I dont have a seatbelt reinforcement plate

everyone dies regardless

[kindred chasm]

Full black looks great

[charred depot]

vw expand blob vs 309

[civic spoke]

Old small cars are nice.

[bitter compass]

That is actually just a blob

[deep zealot]

How is it overengineered

It's the same 3 cylinder from a Mini with a bigger turbo

[dense shard]

I'd say the Yaris/Corolla GR has more engineering that went into it.

[stoic ledge]

Red 309 Is it a diesel? If so, it's basically the same spec as my grandpa had

Does it have striping on the side?

Also: bargain basement equipment ID.3

[charred depot]

yeah its a gld, no striping

[stoic ledge]

Sad no striping

But GLD nice

My grandpa had a similar one

[vocal mural]

Gelderland???!?

[ebon fractal]

Guys would it kill the driver if he quad turboed a 765lt

[civic spoke]

Yes?

The 765LT already has too much power as it is.

[rotund cove]

if you could afford 4 turbos a 765lt, and to make some space for them somewhere

[ebon fractal]

I mean a 765lt aldready has a twin turbo so like another 2 turbos would make less lag and produce more power?

[rotund cove]

more lag, more power, more weight, less room.

(more lag depending on the 2nd set's size and pressure rating of course)

[ebon fractal]

I mean lets say you remove the 2 existing ones and switch it with 4 g series compression auerodynemos turbos they really small but pack a lot of power

Like would that solve the lag problem

[rotund cove]

ask someone who worked on the car at this point if you're serious

[ebon fractal]

Rn im just asking oit of curiosity dont know bout the future

[rotund cove]

just buy a chiron, remove the turbos and put them into the mclaren

money can buy you nearly anything

[prime valve]

More doesnt mean better

unless its a big engine like the W16 from Bugatti

[rotund cove]

could you swap a train with an internal combustion engine?

[prime valve]

No

Actually depends

[rotund cove]

it would be so loud

[prime valve]

Trains are electrical

[rotund cove]

like a steam train

if you cut out the steam engine

[prime valve]

and have a generator in them

Then you single piston engine you mean

[rotund cove]

no like a diesel so it would have enough torque

[prime valve]

Too little power

A small cargo train has over 4k hp

[rotund cove]

what about a turbo diesel from heavy construction equipment

[prime valve]

Technically trains are turbo diesels

[rotund cove]

steam train

[prime valve]

It wouldnt work

[rotund cove]

alright

[civic spoke]

Just use a tank engine at that point.

[prime valve]

Tank engines arent that big tbh

[rotund cove]

I shall use merlin engines from the falcon heavy

speed train now.

[prime valve]

Would be good to speed up and derail

[rotund cove]

drag racing trains has now begun

[prime valve]

Might work

[rotund cove]

lmao

[prime valve]

Just a lot of smoke

[rotund cove]

that sight would be something else

[prime valve]

and no action

[ebon fractal]

Imagine if tanks were 2jz swapped

[jovial mauve]

This is where my fuel goes down the toilet

[rotund cove]

that would have to be a light tank

[prime valve]

Wouldnt even move

[ebon fractal]

Get these small gta tanks

[civic spoke]

Could be used to start the tank.

[prime valve]

In tanks and trains its about torque

[prime valve]

Yeah

[civic spoke]

https://youtu.be/YN_PWX7uDSw

[prime valve]

Talk about compression

[civic spoke]

They are spinning a flywheel.

I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Anyway.

[rotund cove]

I just looked it up, and each merlin 1b engine has 2,500 hp. so with like 10, a steam train wouldn't move?

[prime valve]

How much torque ?

[rotund cove]

They produce thrust. They are rocket engines. I'm assuming you know what those are.

there is no torque

[prime valve]

1.7k lbs

torque

[rotund cove]

85K pounds of thrust

what do you mean torque

[stoic ledge]

Yikes god no xD GLD was a trim back in the day on Peugeots 🙃 Basically a GL + D for diesel

[rotund cove]

"The torque would not necessarily apply to a rocket propulsion as unlike the cars which requires turning force ... The rocket thrusters cannot generate significant torque and are primarily used for course correction. The 'Torque' is the turning force generated say in the car wheels."

[prime valve]

85k lbs is a lot

[rotund cove]

85k lbs of thrust

and the falcon heavy is heavy as the name suggests

so it uses 27 of them.

[fathom socket]

a bit heavy

[prime valve]

a train has around 40k lbs of torque

[rotund cove]

so what is 85*27

2295

plenty of force to move a train + extra cargo

[prime valve]

Yeah but you would have to have engines at the back

[fathom socket]

the train will have fuel to go more than a mile or whatever

[prime valve]

pushing the cargo

[fathom socket]

you'll also deform the rails as you go along due to heating probably

[prime valve]

Also jet fuel and oxygen would have to be carried

Also probably derail

since rockets provide a lot of power at once

[fathom socket]

you cant even go particularly fast on rail usually

[prime valve]

Yeah pretty slow

like 60mph

[fathom socket]

bit more, unless this is some super big freight train

[prime valve]

40km h

is the is the fastest a cargo train will travel

[rotund cove]

so each engine consumes about 150 kilos of fuel per second.

a limiting factor.

[prime valve]

They can go 60mph tops

but most cant go faster than 70kmh

[prime valve]

Yeah the only thing it would be able to move is itself

[rotund cove]

are you using kph or mph your typoing

[prime valve]

both

since im too lazy to calculate to one

and 60mp h is like 100kmh

[rotund cove]

this is from the spacex website: "Falcon Heavy is the most powerful operational rocket in the world by a factor of two. With the ability to lift into orbit nearly 64 metric tons (141,000 lb) Falcon Heavy can lift more than twice the payload of the next closest operational vehicle, the Delta IV Heavy. Falcon Heavy is composed of three Falcon 9 nine-engine cores whose 27 Merlin engines together generate more than 5 million pounds of thrust at liftoff, equal to approximately eighteen 747 aircraft."

[prime valve]

average speed of a cargo train is 32kmh

[rotund cove]

so the rocket itself has a huge lifting capacity

[prime valve]

Yes

Its not viable

In any way

[rotund cove]

and a train is impractical and this whole conversation is pretty much a joke as well.

[prime valve]

Trains are very practical

[rotund cove]

not when you attach rocket engines instead of a traditional propulsion system for a train

is what i really meant, sorry.

[prime valve]

since they can carry like 200 train cars

Oh yeah

[rotund cove]

cargo ships can probably carry like 200 trains too :o

a train car is the same size as one of those containers right?

[prime valve]

21k containers

for a cargo vessel

maybe

[latent pendant]

doesnt it come to fuel consumption per tonn per mile?

[prime valve]

Yeah basically since it would be able to speed up the train but not sustain the speed

[latent pendant]

beside that both transportation methods has advantages/disadvantages

[rotund cove]

so 100 trains with 200 cars

[prime valve]

A container can fit like 3 cars

trains weight a lot

[rotund cove]

i mean ignoring weight and other factors

[prime valve]

18t a cargo train weights

10500 trains

a train is around 2 containers long

possibly 3

[rotund cove]

honestly i have no idea what this conversation is anymore so... what is your favorite type of engine and the specific one

[prime valve]

hmm

audi inline 5

or toyota inline 6

Because Sound

And a lot of power

[rotund cove]

yes i would agree, except for afterburning turbofans

[prime valve]

yeah

[rotund cove]

f119!

[prime valve]

I wonder if anyone has supercharged a supra

[rotund cove]

if not i would be suprased

lol

[prime valve]

Only turbo supra

[rotund cove]

i apologize for my terrible humor

[prime valve]

Well I gotta go

[rotund cove]

same lmao

[prime valve]

see ya

[rotund cove]

chao

[dusk ocean]

Not a car - but check out this ass hattery -- new replacement lawn tractor battery

Here is the one I replaced:

Notice anything?

[charred depot]

well atleast theres probably not any confusers for you to kill by connecting it the wrong way heh

[dusk ocean]

I mean besides from swapping the polarity of the terminals

sigh

luckily its fused, PITA

[junior pine]

I'd actually try it if there's a car like that

[charred depot]

If I fit tracking devices to my cars it brings down my insurance a bunch

do they think I own cars that are desirable classics or something

peugeots battery would be flat before they can get its diesel lump going in the cold of the night, dafties.

[prime valve]

Not enough power tbh

needs at least a top mounted bar too

[deep zealot]

This isn't how physics works

Even if they're smaller now you have to spool 4 turbos instead of 2

and now you need way stronger chargepipes and plumbing systems to handle all that boost

Pressure is inverse to volume, so since you're using smaller turbos now you have a much higher pressure from the get-go to deal with even if its the same amount of physical air moving

[dry pine]

truck guys all over the world are creaming

[viscid atlas]

Pressure is inverse to volume on a given amount of X gas, in this instance that's not applicable

[deep zealot]

Moving the same amount of air through a smaller turbo means pressure is gonna be higher

[viscid atlas]

However the reason why a larger turbo can generate more HP at a given PSI is tempreture

[viscid atlas]

That's because the smaller turbo will spin faster resulting in hotter air which is less dense

If you somehow managed to keep the air the same tempreture, the PSI and the volume would be the same

That's because pressure is directly tied into the amount of air in X amount of space

However tempreture is the variable in-between those setups

Oh, also, this is assuming your intake manifold has the same volume aswell

Because if it doesn't you'll be pushing in less air into less space to get the same pressure

In his example of 4 smaller turbos vs 2 bigger turbos, if it was built in a way where the 4 smaller turbos are feeding 2 cylinders each, it could generate the same amount of power as 2 turbos feeding 4 cylinders (assuming a V8 and assuming it's not a sequential setup)

[viscid atlas]

I recommend you check out how sequential setups work

Also, by the way, whatever the hell they're trying to do to eliminate lag JuSt ShoVe MoRe TuRbO iN

[deep zealot]

holy shit i come back to an essay

can i get a tldr

[viscid atlas]

If you have 100s of millions to be able to afford to do anything, you'd be hiring an engineer and reviving the twin-charging technology, as it entirely eliminates lag

[viscid atlas]

Yes, 1 smaller turbo is worse than 1 bigger turbo cus heat, 4 smaller turbos could be less laggy and the same as 2 bigger turbos, however it's entirely dependent on setup (sequential or series) and manifold volume

[deep zealot]

The more common is sequential now though right?

[viscid atlas]

Yea sequential helps more with lag, and heat

[deep zealot]

Series i think is used in V6 engines a lot

[viscid atlas]

Sequential is also way more complicated tho, and requires a lot of math

[deep zealot]

Yeah donut media taught me

[viscid atlas]

Twin-charging is the best of both worlds, because you entirely eliminate lag

But the issue with that is... Here wai

Fun:)

Ehh, sort of

Maybe after i graduate i could try to do something stupid if i can find an easy to work on supercar platform

Lmao

This is specifically how it works for people who care

To be honest, we don't know

Because analyzing something like this is hard

Eh, not necessarily as twin-turbo charging systems (sequential specifically) do this already

Huh, however now I've noticed something

The way I'd do it is different than how VW has done it

I'd have a contingent control valve between the turbo and the intake manifold to bypass the turbo at lower engine RPMs...

I mean a decent bit

Well the idea with twin-charging is the pressure is actually normalized, so it should NEVER go above the pressure generated of the turbo alone

Because all the supercharger is there for is low RPM pressure

As soon as the turbo spools up the turbo takes over and the supercharger is bypassed

I can see a couple failure points tho

The control valve could fail to open, leading to the turbo trying to suck more air in than possible from the supercharger, creating a vacuum and destroying the supercharger or itself

[burnt kettle]

ayo new portugal:the man album drop?

[thorn oracle]

Favourite car?

[wispy cloak]

The one I have except done

[deep zealot]

Tie between the Jesko Absolut, M8 Vert, M5 CS, M5 E60/M6 E63/M3 E92, E92 335i, M3 Competition G80 and the Mk5 Supra

[thorn oracle]

Oh nice mines the porsche 911 gt3 rs

[deep zealot]

Based car

Porsche probably has 2nd best engineering as an auto maker in the world

[prime valve]

ayy

Good car

[prime valve]

Basically WAG

[deep zealot]

well, no

just Porsche

lol

Bugatti and porsche

[prime valve]

WAG owns both

[deep zealot]

I’m aware

but they also own SEAT and Skoda and stuff that you can’t say are engineered well

[prime valve]

Their is a reason behind it

its designed to be shit so people buy one more often

[deep zealot]

VW marketing

But yeah bugatti and porsche are 2nd

[prime valve]

Buggati isnt great with the engineering either its just people dont use the car

And Porsche its like 90% engine out jobs

[deep zealot]

They engineered a car to go over 300 mph and that’s more than enough to write home about

[prime valve]

Doesnt mean its a good car

[deep zealot]

Never said it was

It’s a well engineered car

[prime valve]

yeah i guess

[deep zealot]

Koenigsegg takes top place

[prime valve]

Yeah id say they are miles ahead of Zonda

[thorn oracle]

Yh same

[deep zealot]

1600 Hp out of a V8 is bonkers

[prime valve]

Zonda is just a overprices amg

[deep zealot]

600 hp out of a 3 cylinder is simply insane

[prime valve]

Yeah that is pretty crazy

I wonder how reliable it is

[deep zealot]

And they own FreeValve which makes camless engine designs, which is completely game changing for engines around the world

[prime valve]

Dam

Pretty insane

Dont think there is a ugly Koenigsegg

[deep zealot]

They look good

[prime valve]

They are just another league

Like McLarry they are like peasant level

[viscid atlas]

what???

[deep zealot]

?

[viscid atlas]

Koenigsegg has not much engineering behind it

they essentially use LS engines... which are not at all hard to get 2K HP out from...

[deep zealot]

If you say so bro

[viscid atlas]

like it literally use to use LS based engines, now it uses Ford Modular engines

but like

ok

[deep zealot]

They moved away from Ford modular engines

They make em from scratch now

[viscid atlas]

i didnt know getting an engine that can get to 1500HP with junkyard parts was deservant of worlds best engineering XD

[deep zealot]

It's really not junkyard parts

Theyve created the world's lightest V8 crankshaft

[viscid atlas]

no, im saying you can get LS engines to 1500HP with junkyard parts.

which, you can, its been proven already by roadkill

[deep zealot]

Then the LST is really impressive

The world's fastest automatic gearbox

[viscid atlas]

yea, thats cool

still wouldnt say koenigsegg is the worlds best engineering for automotive

theyre a contender

definitely

[deep zealot]

And the creation of FreeValve

It's a complete game changer

[viscid atlas]

i dont think we should go into the creation of certain specific technologies because im pretty sure for every 1 that koenigsegg has developed WAG has developed 100

[deep zealot]

Because WAG functions with like 7 makes underneath it, the technologies implemented in say, Porsche, or Bugatti, individually as functioning companies is what I refer to

[viscid atlas]

sure, but you cant refer to them that way

as Porsche, Bugatti, Bentley, and other WAG brands share technology between eachother

thats like trying to refer to Audi and Lamborghini seperately

[deep zealot]

Urus

[viscid atlas]

sure you can try to, but when you start comparing apples to apples with Audi' RS7 and R8 to Lamborghinis cars that use the same engines, you run into a wall

also yea, Urus

ive seen that thing irl

one of the ugliest cars ive ever seen

[deep zealot]

Rebadged RSQ8

[viscid atlas]

yessir

if my 911 gains more value i may be able to finance an Audi R8 kekw

[deep zealot]

992?

[viscid atlas]

997.1

id need to add 15-20K ontop of the price, but ye

[deep zealot]

GT3?

[viscid atlas]

what? no?

C4, the whole of 997.1s are around 50K right now manual

non cabrio ones tho

cabrio are a little cheaper

im not talking about a new R8, i dont buy new cars as theyre not good investments

[deep zealot]

I know jack about the 911 lineup

Went to the porsche website and studied on the models for 2 hours

[viscid atlas]

carrera, carrera 4, carrera S, carrera 4S, GTS, GT2, GT3, Turbo, Turbo S

[deep zealot]

And then tried ratting them off and missed like 3? models

[viscid atlas]

and oh, Targa

Targa 4

i think i may be forgetting some more

there are a lot of 911s

[deep zealot]

Targa GTS

[viscid atlas]

like trim wise

yea Targa GTS which imo is the best 911

[deep zealot]

Theres a GT4 too no

[viscid atlas]

is there?

[stoic ledge]

GTS is best trim of any Porsche

[deep zealot]

There is apparently

[viscid atlas]

GTS 911s are really nice, Targa GTS is even better

like if i was splurging on specifically a 911 itd be a GTS or a Targa GTS

[deep zealot]

And then theres the GT2 RS, GT3RS, GT4RS

[viscid atlas]

but at that pricepoint id rather get a used Gallardo or an R8

oh yea the RS models

[deep zealot]

I have a friend who's got a Cayman GTS and is obsessed with porsche so I know all this stuff

Me, personally, wouldn't buy a supercar because if something goes wrong I know for sure I'm going broke trying to fix it

[viscid atlas]

eh its not that bad

my 911 had multiple issues in the first 6 months

(bad water pump, suspension rot, brake fluid line rot)

it was about 3-4K$ in total for fixes

[deep zealot]

No warranty?

[viscid atlas]

i also replaced the tires too because they were going bad

nah, its a used car

06' so ofc no warranty

[deep zealot]

Ah you said first 6 months so I assumed

[viscid atlas]

first 6 months of me owning it i mean

its had 2 owners before me

i think the 1st one took real good care of it

and the 2nd one didnt

cus it has some issues that bad maintenance would cause

[charred depot]

was it from a deeler

[viscid atlas]

ye, couldnt find a better deal on a C4 manual

i searched around a long time

[charred depot]

over here the consumer rights are pretty good when buying from dealers

[viscid atlas]

originally i wanted a lotus Evora, but they got real expensive as soon as lotus announced theyd be finishing the series

idk what over here is XD

[charred depot]

basically car has to be fit for purpose for the first 6 months

[viscid atlas]

im in the US

[deep zealot]

I'm just looking for a decent M3 E92, a really cheap M5 V10 or a good condition 335i

I'm tryna do some restoration projects

[viscid atlas]

my BMW likeness died

theyre just too boring to me now

[deep zealot]

That's how it is when you drive a porsche

I've grown up around BMWs

[charred depot]

why not older : )

[deep zealot]

E46? I don't have passion for generations before that

[viscid atlas]

the oldest ill go with cars is 2000, if im buying older than that its a project car that im gonna rip literally everything out of and replace

[deep zealot]

We had an old E90 that was totaled in a crash when I was 11 and I wanted to continue that car's legacy. It went 150K miles with 0 issues to anything and was the best car in my eyes when I was young

[charred depot]

the newest ill buy is probably around 2000

tearing my 305 apart as the floor is soft due to a pea brain design

[viscid atlas]

the newest ill buy is like 2015 as after that basically nothing improved

[wispy cloak]

Why's it so low

Did it sit for a while?

[topaz igloo]

Ye

Was a grandpa car and garage sitter

04’ ascent

[vocal mural]

That is low, in comparison to my fathers ‘01 920000km+

[topaz igloo]

Can you covert that to American

Is that like 700k miles or sum

[vocal mural]

Around 600000 Miles

[topaz igloo]

Oh ik

I was close

[vocal mural]

Just devide it by 1,6

[topaz igloo]

Oh ok

[stoic ledge]

1.61 is more accurate

😛

Refueled my grandpa's car last Friday, first time this year

So ~700km in 4 months

=435 miles

[jovial mauve]

Fitment now

[charred depot]

Block test went well

[wraith rivet]

wtf is that

[vocal mural]

A sucker to test cooling in the vehicle

[wraith rivet]

Is it shooting out the top lol

[wraith rivet]

ooh I love those

[vocal mural]

Well, OHRA km insurance something for him?

[jovial mauve]

Ty, ths rims or?

[vocal mural]

Pay per 1000km instead of every month

[charred depot]

its a block tester, a little bit of fluid sits in the bottom and if the headgasket is leaking it will turn green

however im not sure my green coolant volcanoing out is quite the activation

[civic spoke]

The blue fluid that sits in that tester gets activated from exhaust gases.

[charred depot]

I know im taking the piss

[wraith rivet]

Both the car and the rims lol

[echo pelican]

No motorcycle channel, and I'm stumped so I figured you guys might have an idea. I have an 06 Yamaha VStar 650 that cranks but won't turn over, and I cannot produce a spark in testing.

Things I've tested/replaced so far:
New spark plugs
Checked all the fuses
Charged old battery, 12.7ish volts
Tried new battery, roughly the same voltage
Ignition coils show 4.5-4.6 ohms at leads and 22k-24k ohms at spark plug caps

Video is cranking sound with the new battery I used to test with.

[wispy cloak]

Nothing is wrong with the kill switch?

And I'm guessing it's electronic ignition?

[echo pelican]

Electronic ignition and the killswitch does its job only when it's engaged.

[wispy cloak]

Is it electric start only?

[echo pelican]

Except for pop starting it, which risks breaking the shift lever if you try to use the heel.

[west haven]

[charred depot]

I never really cared much for french cars until I got into classics

compared to the classic fords everyone lusts over here the peugeots are much better cars

[vocal mural]

No. VAG is better

[simple igloo]

How about the side stand switch? Does that work?

[echo pelican]

It does, and the bike is designed to start in neutral with the side stand down.

[charred depot]

have you checked whatever sensor it uses to fire a spark is working

crankshaft position sensor?

pickup coil actually

[simple igloo]

How about that, does the neutral light come on when you're in neutral?

[echo pelican]

It does. Though I get the feeling you're yanking my chain because I said something that's obvious to some people and not others.

[echo pelican]

Pick up coil gives me a .650-.730ish mOhm reading, but I'm unable to find any documentation about what that means.

[vocal mural]

Peugeot should focus on manufacturing pepper mills instead of vehicles.

[stoic ledge]

VW should focus on manufacturing sausages instead of vehicles.

[gusty ravine]

My dad got a Mazda 6 recently it has a 2.5L 4 cylinder turbo and it is the top model you can get.
We went for a cruze in it and it handles nicely and has better perfomance then a Ford AU XR6 Falcon manual with a HIgh performace engine

[dense shard]

That is what 20 years of development nets you.

The 4.0L HiPo made what... 230 horsepower?

[wispy cloak]

I have a 5.9 that makes 250hp and gets 11 mpg

[prime valve]

Looks clean underneath

[vast harness]

Yea that’s one reason I bought it eight unseen

[lone fern]

someone cut my cat off dammit

[civic spoke]

Oof

[lone fern]

i think i might just buy a new truck

[stoic ledge]

[lone fern]

i already did a rack and pinion, serpentine belt, new plugs

Any of yall have any suggestions for cars/trucks that sell avg. less than 4k?

[stoic ledge]

Older cars? Idk the used US market

1999 Camry

[lone fern]

ye

i prefer older cars

a camry might be good actually

[civic spoke]

I'm guessing you don't have the insurance to cover the cat.

[lone fern]

no

i only have liability

and it’s a 2005 f150xl with 270k miles, so it’s worth like a grand maybe

[lone fern]

i’m just gonna weld a section of pipe where the cat was

[civic spoke]

Knowing the market. It's probably worth a whole lot more.

[lone fern]

maybe

I bought it for 1.3k in 2019 put 1.4k into the rack and pinion and stuff (had to bring it to a shop bc i don’t have a lift)

maybe I could dump it on fb marketplace for like 3k and see if anybody is interested

[civic spoke]

You should be able to get the money back from it at least. Depending on how the condition of yours is.

[lone fern]

probably.

it’s in good nick cosmetically, a bit of rocker rust and dents on the tailgate, but it has a roof rack and bed cap

but it’s got a lethargic 4.2l v6,

[civic spoke]

Lmao. That one I showed is also missing its cat.

And it needs two coils.

Who would have thought that stealing cats from trucks was easy.

They are jacked up and ready from factory.

[lone fern]

a couple pics taken at diff. times

[lone fern]

yea it’s super fast

it’s got crank windows and no power anything except a radio

however it’s the lowest value color, aspen green

[civic spoke]

What are you talking about? It's a good color!

[lone fern]

yea ik but i guess the market values green lower than the other colors lmao

and the green paint is turning my rims green

[civic spoke]

"Cars are only allowed to be black and white!"

[lone fern]

oh humans

i think it’s a unique color tbh

ya don’t see many dark green cars

[deep zealot]

Man i’d love an Alpina B3

M340i body but with the S58 engine

the german 2JZ

the new german 2JZ rather, the old one is the N54

They should repeal Tesla's permit while they still can. In addition to systemic Clean Air Act violations, Tesla's Fremont, CA factory appears to have been leaking PCE into the groundwater there. Concentrations have risen from 6.8 μg/l in 2014 to 33.5 μg/l

Tesla ain't green

[stoic ledge]

But our lord and savior Elon would never do such thing

[charred depot]

I like how far forward the front wheels are

saab can consume like a small pavement before the front wheels hit the kerb

I exaggerate but we do have pavements that small

[bitter compass]

Yeah imagine thinking electric cars aren't the solution to all our problems

Put a gigafactory in the Amazon, all the plantlife won't die if they have jobs to pay their bills

But don't let em form a union

But well all car companies are greenwashing now 👀

[charred depot]

it lurks in the shadows, unobtainable parts it demands

[lone fern]

i think hydrogen is a better bet

it’s got a ways to go tho

[prime valve]

Imagine a whole street charging their car

literally going to see fireworks

[deep zealot]

The german 2JZ

BMW N54

Found in this case, a 335i

[chilly hatch]

yo sick

[dense sentinel]

hehehe I have an N54 in my 335i. Goes like the clappers. Funnily enough I came from Skylines with RB25's (Well, mine had an RB25/30 build in it) and the N54 definitely feels nicer.

RB sounded better

[primal pelican]

found on tiktok and it looks insane

[dense sentinel]

jesus

[fathom socket]

Those are F250s or Excursions lol.

[deep zealot]

That’s sick, what mods if any are you running

[dry pine]

dodge ram, yes

[rotund void]

I've seen ads like those

[fathom socket]

Not gonna lie I actually want a powerful SUV from a f250 pickup truck.

Like a V10 or a Diesel so I can take a trailer full of camping gear and have 8 seats.

Or take the 2 benches off to make a massive space.

[lone fern]

get the 7.3 diesel. the v10’s guzzle gas like mad

[wispy cloak]

The v10 is also very underpowered

And is a triton v8+2

[vernal basin]

i dont understand how is this even possible

wow

[lone fern]

yes. however, i think a point could be made for it (eventually) being somewhat rare, being one of the very last american made v10’s. not that that’s a selling point really

[wispy cloak]

The v10 in the srt10/viper will probably be the one that does that

[lone fern]

tep

i mean they’re already rare though

[wispy cloak]

Yeah

[lone fern]

because they’re all totaled

[wispy cloak]

No

There are a lot of srt10s and vipers still on the road

[lone fern]

not all, but many were

[wispy cloak]

I think you're overestimating the amount of them that were wrecked

[lone fern]

i am

there’s still a lot out there but you never see any (especially the first gens) because they’re parked which is a true shame

[wispy cloak]

Then they get wrecked when they come out because the tires are rocks

[lone fern]

yea

and some of them were wrecked because their dumbass owners pulled a mustang moment, and forgot that there was no traction control and wrapped it around a tree

and no abs either

[wispy cloak]

I like how dodge didn't put any traction control in a lot of stuff from that era

[lone fern]

i do too

[wispy cloak]

My dakota doesn't have traction control either

It has abs but that's it

[lone fern]

my truck doesn’t have traction control, my 05 f150 xl

yea i have abs and that’s it too

crank windows, manual locks

[wispy cloak]

I had an '07 f150

V6, 5 speed, crank windows, manual locks, no AC

236k miles

[lone fern]

i have the v6, but auto

270k miles

[wispy cloak]

Ticking time bomb of a truck but it ran and drove

[lone fern]

lmaoo

i have hella lifter ticking but it doesn’t really hurt nothing

i find it fun to drive a rwd truck in michigan during the winter with no traction control

[wispy cloak]

Supposedly the engine of that truck only had 80k or so

I sold it after less than a year of ownership

I think I owned it for around 6-8 months

It had a rear main seal that was getting worse and I was quoted ~$2000 for that

I sold the truck for an overall loss but I got a good deal on my dakota

[lone fern]

ahhh ok

i got mine for 1.3k

[wispy cloak]

I overpaid for mine

[lone fern]

owned it since 2019

[wispy cloak]

Bought for $3200 and sold for $2500

That was after I did a few hundred dollars in maintenance too

[lone fern]

i got a nice discount bc it was my dad’s work’s fleet truck and they were auctioning it off

mine was very well kept

[wispy cloak]

But I paid $1900 for the dakota and put ~$300-400 into it

[lone fern]

rusty body panels n shit but overall solid

[lone fern]

nice!

that’s a steal

what year?

[wispy cloak]

I did a wheel bearing and diff cover myself then had a shop do a pretty big trans leak

2000

[lone fern]

ohhh ok

[wispy cloak]

It's an R/T so it has the 5.9

[lone fern]

i have to do the ball joints on mine soon, when it gets nice out

[wispy cloak]

Basically a top spec truck too

[lone fern]

jeez

[wispy cloak]

So even though it's older it feels a lot nicer

[lone fern]

very good steal

[wispy cloak]

The paint isn't very good but that's to be expected from that era of dodge

[lone fern]

mine’s not much but it pulls the boat, and I can beat it up and it doesn’t matter

yea my paint’s shit too

[wispy cloak]

The gas mileage is probably a fair amount worse than the f150 too

I get around 11 mpg in town

16 on highways and 12-14 on the interstate

[lone fern]

i get 13 city, 15 highway, as the v6 has to work so much harder to haul it’s just under 3 tons around

[wispy cloak]

Also the dakota has very stiff suspension

Every pothole feels like you get air time

[lone fern]

oh yeeaaa

[wispy cloak]

The regular dakota might be better but mine is lowered from the factory

[lone fern]

i have very stiff leaf springs on the back and i feel like im in a catapult

[primal pelican]

Just a JB4 and mhd BEF

[deep zealot]

No DP?

[dense sentinel]

I’m working on a new fueling setup to use e85. We have e85 at a fair few pumps in Australia. Then I’ll probably up the boost a little bit more. I’ve got my eyes on a pair of decat pipes as well as a bigger inter cooler

[deep zealot]

Ah nice

Im planning on doing a similar build with an N54 this summer for 550 hp

[dense sentinel]

It’s on the cards but I’m not that fussed these days. Still goes fairly quick. When I got it we dynoed it at 185kw at the wheels which isn’t bad for a little family sedan!

Sick haha

I drive mine daily and take a baby in the back so I’m keeping it super reliable. Can’t afford to be stranded with baby on board!

Had enough of that with my r33/r34/e36/180sx

Ferrari doesn't give two fucks lol

Defo still maintaining that elite club image

[jovial mauve]

i mean only if you buy from ferarri direct

if you go to a dealer i dont think they would care 😛

[sharp pivot]

dealer?

I mean if your going for second hand etc but If you got the money id assume most would go for the full ferrari feel

[stoic ledge]

No those people have "a guy" to which they say Oi I want a Ferrari xxx in this specs next week and then they scout the country to get that car for them

[eager grove]

Yeah Ferrari are reeeealllly funny about who they sell new cars too

Jay Leno has been holding a grudge about it for 30 years

[shut shore]

love the Saab. miss mine. i wish that company would come back.

[fathom socket]

You guys want a Honda Civic?

I keep looking back at my car after parking it. Loving the new rims I got for it.

Sheesh

[bitter compass]

Classic tesla headline

Whats gonna happen, probably not much 👀

[tired nimbus]

lol

[prime valve]

Bad parking ?

They are double handicap

[bitter compass]

I give them the main praise for actually getting the ev market rolling, but everything else about them meh, they still got in some parts a lead tho 👀

[civic spoke]

I'll believe it when I see it. Considering that they sure like to announce new models and such, but they lack on the delivery part.

[charred depot]

it was swept like a day ago 🗿

[civic spoke]

You guys remember the Tesla Roadster? Semi? Truck?

[bitter compass]

I rather watch what Hyundai/kia are doing than tesla

[prime valve]

Yes

the promise scam

[carmine summit]

Tesla is a joke of a company

[prime valve]

I agree

They claim to be green while pouring acid into the area

very green

[civic spoke]

But they had so many pre-orders! Just look at the amount of people who paid $100 to apply for one.

[carmine summit]

Elon Musk is a rich asshole, Tesla only makes money because of fanboys, SpaceX has done basically nothing useful and has created a ton of pollution in the process

[prime valve]

never got anything

[carmine summit]

When are we eating the rich

[civic spoke]

Tesla got a free interest-free loan.

[prime valve]

Also government funded

[bitter compass]

A car company will never be green... Its all just marketing crap

[prime valve]

I mean yeah but providing a shitty electric RC car and forcing it really dumb

[carmine summit]

amateur carpenter offering guillotine manufacturing services, will work for just the material cost if its in the name of a class revolution

[prime valve]

He just used the opportunity

The quality of a Tesla is literally a joke

buying parts doesnt exist and when it does they want a arm and a leg

[carmine summit]

How anyone defends them is beyond me

[bitter compass]

I mean we don't really have to talk about volkswagens position in Germany and then a interest free loan doesn't sound too bad tbh

[prime valve]

Fan boys

Only people that buy them and people that have no clue how to drive \

[eager grove]

Yes of course

Teslas are all literally shit and there’s no compelling reason to buy one unless you’re a fanboy

[prime valve]

Or you have a lil bit of too much money

[carmine summit]

steal charger covers off every tesla in your area and make everyone hate the company

because they cant get parts to replace it

[prime valve]

I wish they didnt have a lock

[eager grove]

Elon is obviously a prick and Tesla have done some shady shit

[prime valve]

so I could just unplug it so them come back to a 2mile range

[eager grove]

The quality is bad and the parts are too expensive. But they produce compelling products at a compelling price that for 9 years no one could even compete with

[prime valve]

Many things are like this mainly because someone does one good thing and the little really bad things just dont seem to make a difference

[eager grove]

Yes…it’s Elon that’s a dick, not you, trying to ruin peoples day because they bought a car from a company you don’t like

[carmine summit]

"compelling products" ah yes, cars that when you open the trunk in the rain all the water falls into the trunk

or cars that ship without seats

[prime valve]

Would be worth it

[bitter compass]

Meh

That just makes you a dick

[prime valve]

true

[eager grove]

Yes, and of course, this is the only reason people choose a car, and why definitely no one has ever bought a Tesla

[bitter compass]

People just wanna get where they need to go

[carmine summit]

ok fanboy

[prime valve]

Im surprised there arent any protests

[eager grove]

Lol, I am not a fanboi

[carmine summit]

dont defend them then lol

[eager grove]

???????

Holy straw man Batman

[prime valve]

Tesla is a pile of shit

[eager grove]

Elon is a dick

Their business practices are shady

As fuck

[prime valve]

Most of their revenue was from bitcoin :)

[eager grove]

Selling self driving is a scam and it should be illegal

I’m not a fan boi

[bitter compass]

Not everything about tesla is bad, just a lot they do some things well, but some are bad to horrific

[eager grove]

But if you can’t see why they’ve managed what they’ve managed, or understand why people value their products then you’re an idiot

[carmine summit]

Elon Musk is subhuman garbage, the company is shady af, theur cars are poorly designed

They're making things impossible for consumers to repair

Literally the only good thing about a tesla is the drive motors and the batteries

That's it

[eager grove]

Poorly designed is a little strong. There are elements of their design that are bad (like the water thing) and others that are anti consumer

[stoic ledge]

Tesla should make drivetrains and sell them to other manufacturers, not cars

😎

[eager grove]

The car industry would be better off for that I think

[carmine summit]

I would take literally any electric version of a normal car over a tesla

[eager grove]

But Tesla sells every car they can make

[carmine summit]

It would be so much better

[stoic ledge]

New vehicular transportation for my sister in law (T-Cross), I liked the Peugeot 208 she had more. Also, included the Saab for @charred depot

[prime valve]

Taycan is like 30k more but 100x better

Isnt that what rimacs plan is?

[eager grove]

Teslas a re better at some stuff. For 9 years it wasn’t close

[stoic ledge]

Is it? Idk

[carmine summit]

I would take an e-Up! over a tesla plaid

[charred depot]

not seen those alloys before, not saab id say

Actually ive seen those alloys in a much bigger size on a big merc suv

[prime valve]

Creating a hug trash can out of space ?

[eager grove]

I still don’t know if there are any EVs that are clearly better than the equivalent Tesla

[stoic ledge]

I'll check what's written on them as I leave soon

Idk lf they're original Saab

[prime valve]

Really dont understand why they sent a roadster into space

[eager grove]

Vanity ego and hubris

At a guess

[bitter compass]

E-up is a honest car its just too expensive for what is is but it's a general issue with the up in the last years

[carmine summit]

Literally every electric vehicle currently on the market is better than teslas cars

Maybe the range isn't as good, but in every other way they're better

[bitter compass]

Also 2nd best selling ev in Germany last year, because its the least affected by chip shortage

[carmine summit]

i would take 10 year old Volkswagen Polo over a tesla, because it's not a car that's designed to not be repairable

[eager grove]

Don’t forget boot space

[carmine summit]

eF150

[eager grove]

Teslas have good range AND good boot space

[stoic ledge]

Ngl, F150 Lightning Pro is a very appealing package

45k USD?

Audi 80

very cheap

I have no use for a pick-up truck. I hate driving big cars

But fuck me

[prime valve]

better than a tesla

[eager grove]

Do I want an F150lightnjng

[charred depot]

teslas are big cars : )

[bitter compass]

Not an ev but i take that one

[carmine summit]

Big things are 0 issue for me

[eager grove]

I also live in the UK, where they don’t sell F150s because they don’t fit on our roads

But it’s the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.

[prime valve]

Only viable EV that isnt pure garbage is the Taycan and audi Etron

[carmine summit]

e-Golf

[prime valve]

that too

[bitter compass]

Na egolf was a bit crap

[prime valve]

essentially everything that isnt a tesla

[eager grove]

Mach-E is pretty good. Ioniq 5 too

[bitter compass]

Same as up too expensive for what is is

[carmine summit]

good space, well engineered (its a golf), parts and service are available

[prime valve]

ioniq 5 is nice

[carmine summit]

e-golf is good

id blob

[carmine summit]

I wish they would sell the ID.3 here

[eager grove]

I do not like the id3

[bitter compass]

Id blob is just bad

[carmine summit]

We're getting the ID.4 but not the 3

[bitter compass]

Like all new vw

[eager grove]

The id4 is obviously superior

[carmine summit]

no

[eager grove]

But still a bit shit

[prime valve]

I want the Corolla in the EU

[carmine summit]

big SUV bad

We have the Atlas for that, it's the best SUV on the market imo

3.6 VR6 baybee

[prime valve]

3.6?

what car is this ?

[carmine summit]

Volkswagen Atlas

[prime valve]

oh yeah

I like this ine

looks pretty nice

never seen one is this a US only thing ?

[carmine summit]

US and Canada I think

[prime valve]

how sad

chonk

[carmine summit]

Atlas is best SUV

[bitter compass]

Best vw you can drive electric only is mk7 gte change my mind and yes i know it only has 50km ev range

[prime valve]

its like a a lot better toureg

[carmine summit]

yes and no

Sadly no TDI option because dieselgate

V10 TDI Atlas would be insane

[tribal heron]

50km range is mighty pitiful

[carmine summit]

Probably no room

[civic spoke]

Mk7.5

[prime valve]

I mean vr6 does the job

[carmine summit]

7.5 is just a facelift, same car

[civic spoke]

It's enough for some people. It's about an hour's worth.

[tribal heron]

That wouldn't even get me to school and back lmao

[civic spoke]

Or wait. Are you thinking about the e-Golf?

[bitter compass]

50km ev only range it probably has like 700 with the gasoline engine

[carmine summit]

MK7 and MK7.5, same car different styling

[prime valve]

mk8 golf is hot garbage

[tribal heron]

Eugh

[bitter compass]

Hybrid, thats why i said best car that you can drive electric

[civic spoke]

I mean with the electric stuff. Are you thinking about the all-electric Golf?

[bitter compass]

And i think gte was only after the facelift

[civic spoke]

Because the later generation e-Golf had longer ranges than previous years.

100+ miles.

[prime valve]

isnt that the mk8 ?

[bitter compass]

Mk8 doesn't have or get an pure ev option

That's what the id3 is for

[civic spoke]

https://ev-database.org/car/1087/Volkswagen-e-Golf

[bitter compass]

Egolf was only mk7, first had like the range of the current e up and later a 100km or smth more

Waaait

I'd half my taxes if I'd replace the up with a mk7 gte

👀

Why does 28€ yearly tax exist, that's just something to be annoying

[charred depot]

wonder when they will ramp up taxes on EVs with the lost fuel duty

gotta pick their moment

[tribal heron]

I'm not gonna buy an electric car for as long as physically possible

[stoic ledge]

The Wheels had nothing written on them so idk

Probably not Factory Saab

Bumpers are also US spec? Or did they all have those harmonica bumpers?

It's a 900 2.0 GL according to the license plate

B20 engine code?

[charred depot]

B202

[stoic ledge]

It's a 1991

[charred depot]

bumper looks normal to me

[stoic ledge]

Ah license plate registration just says B20 lol

Could be standard bumpers, that's would be a Saab thing to do yes

[charred depot]

guess its just stating benzine 2 litre

[stoic ledge]

No engine code is also usually listed

But import so could be entered wrong I guess

[charred depot]

I love the highway code updates here

not a single soul is following them

I had a go but it was just so akward

[stoic ledge]

How many miles are that

[fathom socket]

I get 30 miles per gallon :p

[stoic ledge]

In a truck

That's very good

[fathom socket]

yeah hard to believe a 4.3 v6 sips gas

[charred depot]

30 is more than my saab gets

im avging 23 US mpg atm

[stoic ledge]

Oof so that's 1000km basically

Dayum

[fathom socket]

well I added a bigger tank xd

dumb me

[charred depot]

I can get 30 US mpg if I try for it

[stoic ledge]

Even the most efficient cars here won't do 1000km at 92USD nowadays

[fathom socket]

oof

My 2013 Camry will do 35 and it only holds 15 gallons

It's a 4 cylinder

[charred depot]

saab holds 18.5 us gal costs $150 to fill

[stoic ledge]

My parents car, we roughly fill up with 13.2 US gal every time, costing 110USD

[charred depot]

I swear its that uphill motorway thats sucking my money

[stoic ledge]

Gets us ~460 miles

[charred depot]

people infront of me on the sliproad merge at like 40mph and I downshift to second to overtake

[stoic ledge]

And that's a 1.4 Turbo

[stoic ledge]

It's always uphill when people start to overtake 20 under Vmax also

[fathom socket]

Filling up a F350 XLT is a bloody nightmare

[charred depot]

the merge road is downhill when there isnt any absolutely creatures you can gain 70mph with minimal effort

[fathom socket]

I tried to avoid using it for work 🤣

[stoic ledge]

But, fixed the CEL on zhe Meriva Ordered the patt which is wrong according to GM, imported it from the US, works flawlessly

rear subframe has caused quite the delay

[stoic ledge]

Oh yes all the ~130hp from a N/A 2.0?

[charred depot]

50hp more suitable for speed limits

I love how soft the 305 suspension is, the seats you sink into

never really cared about car comfort but its nice

the no power steering isnt really that bad, and thats with like 14psi 175 winter tyres on the front

when I go into the saab though im like whoa and the saab has pretty weak ps

If I was going from the peugeot to EPS id end up full lock by tapping the wheel

I know someone has one with a corsa or astra eps thing welded onto their steering shaft
