Someone, I want a bolt on motor setup that I cut put in-line with my RWD vehicle. Something that bolts on between the drive shaft and rear end (will need a custom drive shaft I know), will pass-through all power from the driveshaft when not engaged and will add 100-200 ft-lbs when it is engaged. Needs to be usable for…

Yes, seatbelts, every single time. I would do seatbelts before a master cylinder.

Tire size has nothing to do with how much force is exerted on the road. Total force exerted is related to Mass and Acceleration. That’s it. Period. Maybe you were talking about force exerted as compared to the amount of tire contacting the road? Contact patch is a function of tire pressure and has noting to do with…

I think their paint booth is a parking lot next door. But in all serious, I guess walls aren’t really all that necessary.

I think it is a casting machine. The jalopnik post that Erik links to covers it correctly as a casting machine.

The bus was fun, gave me time to talk with friends, trade cards, play POGS. The school bus is a little “wild west” so I could see how it could be a bad experience for some. Our bus had its bullies but I was kind of a big kid so even though I was a wus and couldn’t hurt a fly people left me alone for fear of trying.

It’s not the worst. But Camaros haven’t look particularly good since the first generation.

Wow, I can’t believe this wasn’t already a thing.

No joke, I know a body shop that combined two halves of a corvette to make a complete car. I think the owner kept it to play with and use in parades but I’m not sure happened to it after that.

sadly I think you are probably correct.

have we met? You seem to know me quiet well.

The type of salvage your dad had is the type we should all worry about. Professional says there is frame damage but average joe disagrees.

So there were 3,100 reported fires and it took the Center for Auto Safety filing a petition with the NHTSA and a years long investigation by the NHTSA to get KIA to finally issue a recall.

exactly, need to mod it to get better power.

hahahaha, 300 miles a day, maybe on an E-Bike.

Wow, look at those cars squat.

I’m not aware of a Buick version. But the Pontiac Solstice and the Opel Gt are all re-badges of the same car. The Pontiac has some different styling.

You need to get the Redline or GXP (pontiac) version if you want performance. I paid $10k for a very clean one with under 40k miles about 2 years ago. From a grandpa in Florida and had it shipped to me. That was a lucky find and I had to settle on an auto trans... but you can find similar 1 owner low miles for 12-13k…

I wouldn’t say any is “better” they are just different. And we should all be happy for that as 3 of the same car would be boring.

I stopped dreaming about being competitive when I realized my body type meant I needed to be able to put down 1000 watts to keep up with the smaller guys unless it’s all flats and drafting.
