[QUOTE=Dip;32971686]I've never seen one of those that didn't look like a rental car before. Thats pretty nice! Also what state is it from?[/QUOTE] Manitoba (Canada). Just got new vanity plates for our Football team The Blue Bombers. They kinda look like Nevada plates. Mine's pretty sad under the hood too, 3.9L V6 for a Whopping 246HP.
[QUOTE=Siminov;32980935]Sure, but at least our engines break 100hp[/QUOTE]
My japanese 4 pot breaks 100 horsepower and it's ~91 cubic inches. 1ci<1hp? It took American engineers decades to do that. It's only now common for American engines to cross the 1ci==1hp line, even in the 90s it wasn't hardly seen.
GM's LS1 had less than one horsepower per cubic inch up until 2001 where it became 1 to 1. And that was supposed to be the "bad boy" Chevy engine in the 90s!
Ford's 5-point-slow was well under 1ci to 1hp, even the "Boss 302" was rated at ~290hp. The 4.6 did manage to cross the line, but not in its 2-valve form. You would have to wait until the SVT Cobra was released to enjoy 1ci<1hp.
Chrysler didn't have an engine that came close until the New Hemi, iirc, which was 1-1 when it came out.
Then again, I'm rambling. This is all pointless, American engines do sound pretty great. I could give a fuck, as long as it gets up and goes somewhere.

[QUOTE=Dip;32980557]The Australians are just as bad, if not worse.[/QUOTE]
Most Aussie engines are American developed or derived from American engines. Holden's lineup is all GM powerplants iirc.
I didn't mean it like that, all their cars have like 1 and 1.5L engines while we have like 3.2L and 5.7L engines

The 215ci 3.5L V6 in my Chrysler 300m has 255hp. Where have you been.

What are we arguing about here? I think it's safe to say my engine is the most efficient when it comes to size/horsepower ratios... Can we stop now?
This is a pictures thread, go bitch somewhere else.
Camber :D

Wouldn't that cause uneven tire ware?
I'll go take a picture of my rear tire in that same fashion tomorrow.
(yes)

Aside from the hood bra, you got a pretty nice car there.
My parents used to have a '94 Tbird, no supercharger though.

fucks sake, how does half the shit this car has wrong with it even happen? You'd think someone took the axles out and just dropped the body onto the ground or something...

None that I can note and I've had them on for about 5,000 miles. The deadly combination is camber + toe, then it fucks your shit up.
I didn't really notice mine, either, that is until it got closer and closer to being bald, then it seemed to wear down faster and as it sits now I'm almost running slicks in the back, except for where it has worn enough to contact a bit of tread on the outer edge on wheel
Brothers car.
He told me to chuck these up.
