Was looking at some guys RX7 the other day with an LS1 in it. I would have kept the rotary personally, but thats because I've never owned a rotary.
Anyways, I had a crazy dream last night. My brother borrowed my 1967 chevy pickup, and when it came back, I took it for a drive and it had a massive fucking turbo in it. Like, turbo kicked in and tires spun doing 60 miles an hour.
When I went to a drift event last week there was a 240sx just like mine with a VH45DE (4.5 Liter v8) and if that wasn't enough it was vortech supercharged aswell.. it sounded amazing.

The car in question.
Bump.
Also I feel sorry for super car manufacturers. I bet they cry themselves to sleep when they hear their car's name in some rap song. The other night I heard this dumbass song about this black dude transforming into a Veyron.
Did I say rap? I meant shit.
You can stick an ls1 into a miata.

Link? That sounds hilarious
Lastnight I potentially saved a life.
Was driving down this road near blackpool, was a 30 zone. This people carrier (Citroen picasso) came up behind me up my ass (Insanely close), then overtook me, at bout 50/60. Obviously driving dangerously.
I re-overtook him and slowed back down to 30. (Made sure it was safe first)
I am are I was speeding to overtake him, and maybe I made this guy angrier but it's just stupid to be going that fast in a 30 zone.
I felt good.
I accidentally left the radio on in my mustang and when i went to go to a party it was dead and i had to take my dads stupid truck ):

What is the chance it would actually be an emergency? Last time I checked most people are just impatient dicks.

When I was 8, I was in a go-kart accident with a fractured skull and blood everywhere, and my grandfather was doing about 90mph trying to get to the hospital and some dumbass in front of us was swerving around the road trying to not let us pass.

That was not only dangerous but also a completely unnecessary provocation.

Don't post that idiot. Anything you post on the internet saying "i did something good" will immediately have holes picked in it because we're a bunch of vindictive bastards.
Also you didn't help, all you did was annoy people.

It's a Maserati Quattroporte
My car's engine warning light is lit permanently, how much should an OBD scan cost?
Am i the only one thinking the Volvo V70R just looks amazing?
I normally don't like Volvo's but Damn.

what car model?
Ford Focus Mk1 2.0L
I was under the impression that it was fairly cheap to have done.
Volvos are to everyday here in Sweden, i hate every volvo that was produced from 78' to now. They just got so god damn booring!

That is frankly superb. I've always loved the lotuses and especially the exiges with black rims. They looked menacing.
Now that that came along, a new yardstick for menacingness has been set.

I bet it can evade radar just with its badassness.

If there is an optional extra for surface-to-surface missiles or rocket pods hidden in the grill I'll place an order right now

In the US a lot of part stores will let you borrow their scanner, or befriend a technician (harder to do).
More pics, Red Alert in the showroom.

Ah Lotus Exige, Faster than a DB9 with an engine less than half as powerful. Just because it's so light. I really want one until I eventually come back down to earth, and start thinking along the more sensible lines of an MX-5.
They're not that expensive either. I think you just sacrifice the luxury elements of a vehicle.
True, but the insurance is bound to be way more in an Exige. To be honest it's looking more and more likely im gonna end up with a Clio, since I'm not earning all that much right now. Hell I'm concentrating on getting mobile more than anything right now, so the likes of an Exige will just have to wait.
I think you're looking at about £30k for one, which is an absolute steal for the performance, however on the road the ride is incredibly uncomfortable with the stiff suspension and thinly padded aluminium bucket seats. That and the incredibly high insurance are its downsides I guess :(
Got some real bad news through today, my car back at home has hit some massive problems. The alternator and power steering both conspired to die at the same time. The power steering just needs a hose changing, it appears to be losing pressure in the system through a tiny hole in one of the hoses. Actually getting at the ends to change it though will be a massive ass pain, scuffed knuckles all round with it's tightly packed engine bay. The alternator on the other hand, I fear will be an expensive garage job.

Should I? Seller lives very close, but this seems more like a woman's car...
Oh my god my eyes.
For less than a grand... Might as well if you're without a car.
GM stuff is always easy to work on. Unless it's a buick.

143k miles, go look at it before you do anything and see if it leaks or burns a lot of oil, but it's definitely better than nothing
I don't think he'll get it for that price with all those bids and 4 days left.

Also, do some craigslist shopping.
