I dropped a plug back into the hole. It landed... sideways.

I agree, or at least, you would think.

But don’t drop the plug, like my friend Jamal did.

Changing a spark plug on a Nissan 300ZX VG30DETT.

You might not believe it, but let me tell you this; It should not take 5 hours, three people, and a lunch break, to change 6 plugs and figure out the reason for a misfire.

I smell “Montauk Project”.

Anyone else familiar with this? Duncan Cameron anyone?

The weird thing is that a lot of the stuff in this story actually rings true with many witnesses.

Not a fan of this cars exterior design, I might add.

Perhaps they’re holding off for a return of the venerable RX platform. I’ll be sure to tell my grandkids to keep their eyes out for that one!

Thanks so much for your response! :)

Hi Dave:

I loved SCC back in Public/High School. I was really upset to see it be phased out. I hope that some day, we can see a return!

My question is, can we expect to see a closed, fixed roof variant of the new MX-5? And has there been any toying with that particular idea? I understand the value of the “Roadster”…

I looked it up on Edmunds. Blame them, lol.

A Z32 weighs 3299lbs.
A 4Cyl-T Mustang weighs 3532lbs. (232lbs more).
A 335i weighs 4585lbs... and still manages to accelerate to 60mph in the same amount of time.

I don’t consider 232lbs to be terribly heavy, and the fact that a car that weighs almost 1300lbs more can get to 60 in the same amount of time is more or less…

Absolutely agree. People really seem to have forgotten just how potent even 300HP is. A Nissan 300ZX Z32 Twin Turbo, with 300HP, stock, will hit a top speed of 295km/h (175mph) with enough room and will do 100km/h (60mph) in just under 5 seconds on modern tires.

Nothing to scoff at, and gives most people a good idea of…

Correction:

There are two kinds of oversteer:

Controllable and Uncontrollable.

High horsepower cars tend to be uncontrollable by way of non-professional/non-skilled drivers, because with all the aids off, the chances of throttle overcompensation are greatly increased.

Everyone’s making assumptions but you, huh?

Clearly you have never hung around men being men.

Cause I’m so sure that women don’t generalize or sexualize about men too when they’re not around... right?

Get off your double standard. We’re all animals on this giant rock.

I can’t wait ‘til this bubble bursts.

I love cars, but I’ve never had a crisis moment where “I just can’t.”

Even when I saw an F40 for the first time, and drove it, I was more composed and heavily intrigued and fascinated, than anything else.

This Ferrari 412 suddenly makes my pants feel a fair bit tighter.

By all means, go right ahead.
