Say you found a sweet little deal on an older Nissan 240sx and want to make it a little project car since you've always wanted a little japanese tuner. What sort of engine would you put into it? Stay true with the original SR20 egnine and replace turbos, etc? Keep it in country with a 2jz...

It's a ford 192 diesel engine, in a skidsteer but an engine is an engine. I'm having some serious issues with starters. As soon as I put a new one in I can crank it mayb 3-4 times before it fails and begins grinding on the flywheel. After that the starter is shot and needs replaced. You can...

I can probably believe them dropping cars onto the mountain roads. If fast enough, you can probably drive out of a skyscraper into another. But him straight lifting that Lykan for Paul Walker to go under it? Not sure I buy that, but then again, I'm no auto expert. Keep in mind he basically...

I am in a dilemma, I am wanting to do a 4 to 6" lift on my truck. I have owned the truck for 2 years now and wanting to do my own thing with it while redoing all the bushings, shocks, rear leafs etc... Then I will be planning on doing a 20X10 rim with 35X12.5x20 tire.....still choosing on that one....

I will get alot of heat for this but, for those who know our cars, they can be made pretty quick for cheap. Here is mine

I've rode and enjoyed bikes all my life, and I want another one. Triumph street triple. However I've got a little girl and I do get frightened that some idiot may take my life texting and driving and leave my daughter without a father. She's my everything. Anyone else in a similar situation? If...

What I am looking for in a car is for it to be nice looking, I like the sporty look but also want it to be reliable, spacious inside so I am not cramped and get solid mpg. I don't know much about cars, this is my second car, my first was a 97 honda accord that is dying on me. From what I have seen...

Anyone have one or can comment? I'm considering one for my next ride, as I'm thinking of moving away from full sized pickups since 95% of the time I don't use the bed. I've read about some potential transmission issues, but I think that was with the 5 speed from 2011-2013.

Hey car misc, my gf is looking into getting an S40 with about 90k or so miles. Just wondering what the consensus is with them for reliability and if theres any big services needed in the near future with that mileage. any feedback on the car is welcome. Thanks brahs. i should...

So brahs, hold me. The background is complicated, I sold my prehistoric car. I was promised to have a car to use by my dad, and he fuked me over, so I was in a hurry to buy a "new" car. A '98 Twingo got my eye, it looked solid and I bought it. Then I came home and a mechanic told me that the car...

1996 toyota t100 Disc front Drum rear Replaced both rear wheel cylinders a while ago and only bled the rear brakes. Truck was fine braking wise, but today when I turn the truck on the pedal goes to floor when pressed. With the truck off, break pedal is stiff and there is no visible leaks or...

I realized my controlling a$$ mom doesn't want me owning a car. But I want the full teenager experience and since I missed 16 which I'm mad about I'm trying to get a car at 17. Because all the old guys go "back when I was 16 I passed my license test and had a car" I missed 16. And I have money for...

V8 - 395HP, 400 lb-ft tq. 3.5l - 375HP, 479 lb-ft tq What reasons would someone pick the V8 over the Ecoboost?

Love the latest 5 series design. Perfect size, everything. I only wish they had a coupe version of the sedan.

Looking for thoughts.
