Here are my current rides: 1998 BMW M3/4/5.  2002 VW Golf although I'm hoping to dump this for something else, maybe a TDI, when I start my new job. Or an E30/E46/Miata/wrx. I've got turbo envy in a bad way.  1988 Honda NX250. I just use this for putting around the city. 80mpg!

Here is my winter beater. I got it for $1 from my father-in-law. 190k miles. I put a $279 timing belt kit on it and $100 set of craigslist snows. 1.8T 5speed. I'm now trolling for a used APR tune for it. I stupidly passed on a 2004 GTI for $1200 because it was automatic and "not shifting right" according to the seller. Oh well.  Firestones

Crossposting from what did you do today. I bought this. My wife and I have purchased a couple rentals/flips so this is going to be our do-everything vehicle and I can stop trying to ruin her forester and my bmw by stuffing it full of concrete, gravel, and pavers. 1993 Nissan D21 2.4L 5 speed manual 4WD.  The paint is obviously in poor condition but I'm thinking of running it over with a buffer and sealing it with some clear coat to preserve its weathered look. I'm going to a pick and pull today to see what kind of fun stuff I can find for it. ThirstyBuck fucked around with this message at 03:59 on Jun 30, 2015 |

I HATE PINK BIKES posted:hi ai, it's been years. i've been on a roll with good decisions lately so i decided to rectify that in buying this and posting here again. I like the diamond plate use. I'm inspired to pick up some black diamond plate and do the same on my old winter beater. Insert plate here over rusty doors.

Powershift posted:That's a cool truck. Thanks. It's an 02 2.7 4x4 5 speed. Some old timer had it and kept it up really well. Every single fluid had been replaced within the past 6 months and the frame was replaced. It is replacing this old girl  After having the new to me truck for a couple weeks I'm surprised that I'm still torn between the two. I like driving the old truck better; it is basically a tractor that I can drive on the street while the taco feels kind of numb and whatever. If I had the time I would patch up the Nissan mad max style. I already have some black diamond plate on hand and a riveter.

I unfortunately drove the coupe style of this car for a little while in high school. It was way less cool then than it would be now. It was an old fire marshal car that my dad picked up for me for $250. I do highly recommend the dog dish caps for it. I think it needs these:

I forgot about the moto. 2004 V-Strom probably gets better than 20 but I've never calculated it.

BitBasher posted:My 04 Tacoma PreRunner TRD 3.4L V6 in Lunar Mist Metallic. 136k miles, I am the original owner. What's up Tacoma friend. Someone asked about a manual Taco?  This is my 2002. It a 2.7L 4x4 manual base model. Gas mileage is rubbish in the 4 cylinder too. It is only used for work/house projects and as a winter commuter. I love it. I would only sell it to get a better trim level/TRD or more cab room.

I loved all of the very non-descript names given to the various flavors of van that proliferate in Japan: Boxy, Roomy, Every, Voxy ect. I also appreciate the HiAce(?) worktrucks that comboed ladder/glass/pipe racks with "sport" packages and ground effects that seemed to be popular.
