>>22618087
>>22617573Why do you GM guys always do this? We try and have a nice discussion about the panther platform and you have to a sperg out about random shit, yes the 5.7 is a faster engine. We just don’t care
>>22617719>>22615122I'm a HUGE Vic fan but I won't pretend the 4.6 is a cheap or easy engine to mod, it's expensive as hell to squeeze a little more power out of it. It's bulletproof, I mean it's literally been shot at more than maybe any other engine, it'll last while everything else on a Vic falls apart, but it is one of the slowest V8s.>>22618165This. It's not about the numbers, it's about powersliding a cheap tank.

Question for those who make stickers. What kind of laminate do you use? I did a test run of some homemade stickers and after a few weeks in wet and rainy weather, the ink runs a little.

>>22617180What do you own?
Not sure about the US but in the EU cops can ask for a surprise emissions test if they catch your cars puffing smoke. And the fuel consumption issues are even worse here due to higher gas prices/Had to sell my rx8 not because of the engine but because it was slowly bankrupting me.
>>22609665You worried about paint chips at all? Do you go fast on gravel roads? I'm a total pussy about it.

im new to carbed engines, just started working on a 83 Honda Civic 1300 and the carb keeps flooding the engine when i try to start it. ive only worked on fuel injected and im thinking ill need to get an entire new carb. is there any common fix to this issue?
>>22617043That won't work M8, the grease monkey will smell it that you are talking shit.
>>22617043>5 replies, 6 postersnigger
Just tell him that you want the carb rebuilt or changed out with a Weber DGEV 32/36, with the Weber you may see a HP increase but fuel mileage will suffer as this was the case when I went Weber after I threw in the towel trying to rebuild the hopelessly complex Hitachi carb on my 'roo. Post body and interior pix plz.
>>22617043>Own a 37 year old car>Not interested in wrenching on it yourselfHope you have deep pockets mate

I had a trike when I was about 4. My mom never let me go outside (she was too lazy to watch over me), so I did laps around the garage with very little space (she was even too lazy to park the fucking car outside while I was on my trike). Dad was at work all day. circa 1994Sometimes, you just have to let goand embrace what you've become
>At work>Wife tells me sister in law having trouble with 15 jeep cherokee>sister in law take it to ken towery>she claim she ripped off, they claim its just coil>girlfriend already trying to tear into the 3.2L pentastar>Tell her it big mistake because v6 fwd she need wait until I get off work>no no no she can handle it>tell her anti seize or bad future with removing sparkplug>Tell her no overtighten spark plug>Tell her fuck all that just swap coils around and see if problem move to new cylinder>she said she watch youtube video while she there >anxiety through the roof>they say they going to ken towery to demand refund>second hand embarrassment>she wont stop texting me when I cant do nothing about stupid questions that anyone figure out if they actually knew anything about car maintenance like she claims
>>22617130I should be laughing at your horrible english my fellow ESL shitskin but this part was pretty based and indeed transcended the boundaries of language, time and space. I do really feel for you
>>22618006You can, but like everything else in life, there are varying degrees of preciousness and varying degrees of trust and varying degrees of basic care.For instance, I can leave my dog with my girlfriend for a day because these three variables fall into the correct range.>gf trust: 85/100>gf carefulness: 60/100>dog preciousness: 80/100, trust - preciousness = 5>carefulness required to keep dog alive: 30/100But if you're asking me, if I had my kidneys removed and I had to keep them on ice for a day before they could be re-implanted, I would definitely not do that because those variables are way out of line.>kidney preciousness: 100/100, diff = -15>carefulness needed for kidney, 100/100, diff = -40Comment too long.

>>22618039>dog preciousness: 80/100I would bump that number above gf trust to be quite honest. Your dog probably rates you at 110/100.

>>22618075>paying 20K for a cheap interior and a bunch of useless electronicsCould have had a car that was actually built to be driven at that price.
Vans?Pulls stuff. Big. You can walk around in it. Slidey door sometimes.Good.
>>22617852It's barely a minivan though, more like miniminivan. It's basically a Mazda 3 wagon with sliding doors.
>>22617852>>22617862still disgusts me to look at it, i dunno.
>you can walk around in itLazy manlet detected. What, you realized its known people buy pickups and don't use them, so you thought you'd get a van and trick people? My van is filled with pipes, a ladder, fittings, supports, etc. You can't "walk around in it" you poser. Unless you're a 4' tall Mexican which is also possible since you like a 20 year old van thats been passed around more than your mother in the 1990s.
>>22617890Just imagine being this mad because someone on the internet uses a machine differently than how you use it.
>>22617929Just calling a poser a poser. Go call your jannies faggots. Vans don't come with vag massaging trims so you won't like it anyway.

Wholesome ending. Here I was thinking that crummy was a degenerate furry hillbilly shitposter who worked on engines in his kitchen but he actually stepped up and helped out a random anon in time of need. I guess god saved him from sliding off that mountain for a reason.
Maybe get an inner tube fitted for the time being OP?

New AMG GT Black Series Leaked
>>22617742Fuck you lm not the OP.
>>22617702ISnt the AMG GT a Viper underneath? or was that the SLS

>>22617764The SLS had some connection to the Viper, not really sure what it was exactly
I'm thinking of picking up a 350z. Anything I should be aware of? Any issues?
>>22613787Could yoi elaborate on why the HR is better? I've checkee around a bit and found some articles that the DE is better.
>>22617042https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IVTkil_h68M&t=278s
>>22616488>Are you satisfied?Yeah, glad I didn’t spend 4 grand more for a Z with the same miles. I’m 6’1 and the “Rwd Japanese cars have no interior room!!” Is a meme. Cozy interior that was loaded for the time with heated seats cruse control sunroof power mirror adjusters etc.The g35 sedan wears different tires from the 350z and g35 coupe. You can’t rotate the tires on a G35 coupe, you can on the sedan. The pros are: 350z engine, transmission, rear end And exhaust note(Even stock with the windows up you always hear the VQ, it’s not a quiet motor(can be a con)More interior space. I have the sedan and load up the back with people occasionally and they never complain for space or comfort. I sit in the back when I’m detailing the car, the sedan is surprisingly spacious. I don’t think I even fit in the back of the coupe though, again I’m 6,1 but could not fit in my buddies g37 coupe back seat without breaking my neckCons:Is a 350z + a few hundred poundsA 350z can take corners a few miles per hour faster then a G, but you can get the G track ready with parts from a z that bolt right on lol. But even in its stock form the G35 coupe and sedan corner impressively well, best in class when new,bmw,Acura,Lexus,Audi, no one could touch the G35s performance for the price point for the longest time. Expect G35s to get expensive soon(they already sell for more than they’re worth)Also, this should go without saying, but the later model year G35 you can get the better. A 2006 makes more power than a 2003 for example. The most reliable g35 is probably going to be the newest model year you can afford. Look for 07+ g35s they got the updated interior and he high rev 3.5 that has like 30 hp over a regular 3.5 and can rev to like 8,200 rpm. The high rev is the ultimate trombone
>>22616539>>22616643G35 coupes can’t rotate tires.(same like the 350?)The sedans can rotate tires.This is where the tire memes come from and yes it’s stupid that you need to buy tires twice as often for the coupe over the sedan.This alone was enough to get the 4 door for me
>>22617042The HR makes more hp than the DE.This is at the cost of tourq, the DE makes more tourq but is still slower on paper according to nissan.On the VQ fourms though you have people arguing that thier high rev feels slower then the DE from the lost tourq.Also the HR has valve timing and the DE does not. I know what version engine id rather take apart
What are the advantages of a I6 engine against a V6 or a 4 cylinder turbocharged?
>>22616838>balance doesn't matter at all on smaller engines
>>22616856So break it down for a retard like me, what exactly are the drawbacks of say a 60 or 90 V6 at 3l, as opposed to a 3l I6 in relation to balance.
>>22616823From what I've seen they're entirely talking about the engine's ability to take internal forces which doesn't much relate to how much it will bend if you attach a load to the end.
>>22617976So if you have a block which is more structurally rigid and has more clearance between cylinder bores, how is the opposing block stronger simply because it's inline?
>>22605940The advantage is that my 30 year old I6 will run until the heat death of the universe and an V6 or I4 running diesel is a joke for reliability and longevity, not to mention power output.
