Custom 6spd Nissan Spec-V manual swap into a 2002 Infiniti G20 that was automatic. I yanked the auto tranny, cut the hole for the clutch pedal/cylinder assby, sourced rare japanese parts etc. The hard part, and first time ever thing for me was taking apart the 6spd tranny to swap the bellhousing (it was not just a…

They hydrogen will generate electric for the normal hybrid tech they have in the Prius today. So regen braking will feed back into the small on board battery pack and yes it will be able to reuse that energy. I’m assuming a small pack like the Prius C.
18k for my 2013 Prius C brand new. 2yrs and 54k miles later, never been back to the dealer, average 55+mpg, and my back roads trip to work nets me 65-70mpg and home 52-58. It may not be a fast/sporty/pretty car, but it gets the job done.
KY does this right - you keep the title but it’s stamped with a lien. All you need is a letter from the bank to release it. Cuts the time down on waiting on the actual title and if the bank is local they’ll release it there on the spot. That sucks though!
Thanks - was an installer and worked at a large oem/aftermarket when I started in my career. Remote start went from cool factor to a must have when we had kids. Never put them in a freezing or burning up car now....
Which is funny because in my state there is no law on age to stay home alone after school. So 9yr old in a car where im within a few hundred feet and controls in place is illegal vs him home alone for hours until I get home from work. Gotta lover merica. I know which i would do and its not the house!
I’ve got (and had on all my past cars for about 9 years now) a 2 way remote start, works almost a mile away. If and or when I leave my 8-9 year old for just a few minutes (if he’s in the middle of a book etc) I remote start car, leave AC controls comfortable, exit car and lock car. If anyone breaks into the car the…
our local Toyota dealer tried this a while back. Their no haggle price was higher than what true car could get me at any other dealer. All their no haggle did for many was just piss people off with unrealistic prices sold as a hot deal.
every time I goto a local dealer to look they have none. Is it as simple as low production?
Go look at the # of 2013+ Nissan Altima Transmission complaints with them. No forced recall yet. I almost died because the CVT went out just as I pulled out into an intersection. There have been many accidents. It won't move, then revs then full power etc. Others had similar situations to me. There are hundreds…
Ya - but your Altima will eat it's CVT by 30k miles..... The tractor will still be rollin rollin rollin.....
Helped my parents buy a Sienna.... Sadly I negotiated the hell outta the guy for my dad, got them down below true car, got the 1500 cash back, 0% etc. Then the sales guy called after the fact and sold him the warranty - DOH... need to see if its Toyota, or aftermarket and what the details are on it before I make…
So - GM says 250k to help museum that is for-profit because cars got damaged.... GM to actual deaths caused by ignition switch fiasco - "crickets".
I don't think you understand what we are saying...
Then you'll never own a car. I worked at best buy in high school installing car audio and every car I ever worked on had this rust. Like the other guys say - you can't use uncoated metal and it NOT rust. It just happens. Go look under the dash money says there is surface rust somewhere on the uncoated brackets…
As much as I hate Nissan after my lemon law ordeal, they had brake over-ride standard for years even before the toyota ordeal. The brakes are not always enough to stop you. Think about being at 1/2 or full throttle and trying to stop as the brakes get some work down and start to slow you they also get hotter and stop…
Best ever, in 2002 I went to look at a cherry 1992 Nissan Sentra SE-R. Got there, body was great, the VIN was definitely the 2.0L car, it had the nice seats, the leather shift boot, the rev happy gauge cluster, the wheels etc, it was a true SE-R. I then popped the hood to find a GA16DE (the normal sentra engine) in…
My brother took me for a 15 minute spin in his brand new Jetta, I felt horrible stalling it, so I said screw it. A friend drove me to Michigan and I bought my first stick and first Nissan NX2000, loved that car. Figured it out on the drive home. Highlights included almost backing into a fence because I was more…
