MrYenko posted:The C4 ZR1 was esoteric enough that the C8 Z06 is probably the first time a lot of car people have heard of an OHC Corvette, and someone (or a Google search) probably told them it isn’t the first one. It's more a bunch of yoooootoooobers and car scribblers from seemingly unconnected sites all did stuff about the ZR-1 at the same time that seemed to be oddly co-ordinated. I've always lusted after the ZR-1 (impossible dream defined) so maybe I just am more armed to see anything about ZR-1s?

I would guess a combo of new Z06 plus the current popularity of 80s/90s cars made all those people get the same idea of "hey, I should do a story of the original quad cam 32 valve 'vette" and boom here we are. Wonder how long before someone drops an LT6 into a C4 to make a "restomod" ZR1.

Came here to post that pic. Yeah, probably don't support microsoft or playground with these types of action. ps funny thing - they ban the creator but don't remove the livery. See: "free candy" vans, "hitler" liveries, etc

That foam-to-fiberglass 350Z looks like what you would get if you put a 350Z and a Juke into the teleportation machine that turned Jeff Goldblum into The Fly, but in a good way.

Olympic Mathlete posted:Also I'm still down with retrofitting oldschool stuff with new electric gubbins, particularly cars like this. Based on my experience in the finnish army, I couldn't trust a UAZ drivetrain, especially with the increased torque of an electric. During one field exercise our company's UAZ had broken down and was sent to the repair depot. The dedicated conscript driver brought it back after repairs. Few hours later bunch of our officer trainers decided to drive to the sauna with it. They tried to back it and they barely got the UAZ to move before the transmission failed again.

UAZ-469, breaking down in places other vehicles can't even reach! Of all the vehicles to buy from Russia. Was Sisu not interested in building a jeep? Could VKT not build the Wulf? I saw a 469 for sale in Naples, FL with the entire drivetrain from a 5 liter G-Wagen in it. Most of the interior, too. Which... is one way to do it. They wanted $29k for the thing, lol.

They should have done the Bukhanka For a good laugh, scroll down to the luxury interior features. They have one of those things where you hover over them and get a description like all the fancy luxury car websites. https://uaz.global/cars/commercial/classic

Friend took her Civic Alf to Dynotorque today to get a bit of work done. Needs the radiator adjusting and some brake hard lines made up. The workshop is full of fun...

A friend from my car club got a Suzuki Cappuccino and brought it tonight. It’s the only car I’ve ever sat in that made my brz seem spacious. It was absolutely awesome.

Ever sat in a Miata? How do those two compare? Cappuccino or other kei sports car is on my list of things I'd buy if I ever see disposable income again.

Chaz Mostert setting a new lap record in the pole shootout at Bathurst yesterday. His codriver Holdsworth is currently leading the race by 38 seconds with 58 laps left. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuLfT-lsz_8 Full lap from the helicopter feed is pretty neat: https://streamable.com/rezaeu

I was dumb and only remembered there was a fucken WHOLE CHANNEL on Foxtel dedicated to the race all week wit 60 laps to go. Bad luck for Shane, but he has enough wins, good on Mostert with his dumbfuck TigerKing haircut.

I've had the opportunity to drive one. It's definitely a mixed bag that falls into "don't meet your heros". They sound wonderful. They feel so right. But they are slow as balls and you're gonna get dusted by a mid 90s minivan.

Motronic posted:I've had the opportunity to drive one. It's definitely a mixed bag that falls into "don't meet your heros". Almost word for word what my buddy with a 308 says about the car. We are pretty sure his diesel box truck can beat it to 60. For the one day a month he drives it, the man is all smiles. His DD is neat, too. 1992 Mercedes 300E in teal metallic paint over beige leather, loaded minus the self levelling suspension. A two owner Florida car; no rust, no dings, all the little trim pieces in place, just a great example of the breed. Not a hero car but solid, uncomplaining, and very comfortable. Easy to see why half my family swore by the W124 for so long. My uncle's last one (a '97) was sold in '05 to a Czech cousin of ours who still rocks it, bombing around the forests blasting EDM while tracking down classic Eastern European car parts.
