Sperglord Firecock posted:Learning manual progress is getting easier, less thunking and anger whenever I shift into first. Might try taking it onto the highway later on. Haven't dealt with stop-and-go traffic yet. You know not to try putting it into first until you're completely stopped, right?  Your 1st gear synchros will thank me.

Sperglord Firecock posted:Well, yeah? Pretty much, yeah. If you're below, say, 3mph or something it's probably ok, but generally it's better to just leave it in neutral with the clutch out until you're read to start moving again.

Sperglord Firecock posted:In other news, I think I found my winter beater car. It's a 1980 Nissan 300X for about 800 bucks. So you are going to put away your old, temperamental Nissan 300ZX for the winter and buy a...even older Nissan 300ZX?  Dis gon' be good

This thread is 22 goddamn pages long and the OP hasn't even done the first task set to him. Other posters here have threads that aren't even half that length yet have managed to accomplish 100x more on their vehicles. Do you like getting pissed on, dude? We all had to start somewhere, but that's the key: we loving started. I still have a nice scar on one of my knuckles from my first day of car ownership, because the wrench slipped while I was replacing the...*gasp*...battery cables! I know it's cold or whatever, but last winter I replaced the entire engine in a car, in a lean-to with a dirt floor and no walls, with a basic set of hand tools and a lot of anger. You need to get angry; at us for giving you endless poo poo (and, let's be honest, endless patience as well), at the car, at yourself for getting into this situation in the first place. Use that anger to keep you warm while you stumble through your first auto repair. You'll feel great about yourself afterwards, and you might even be able to actually enjoy your awesome 80s car.

Welp OP, you're a loving idiot. I wish you luck in swindling some other poor clueless bastard out of far too much money for that barely polished turd, and in your inevitable high-speed collision with a tree. I wonder if they'll bury you in those ridiculous clown pants. "A suit is just far too dignified for this jackass, even in death", the funeral director will tell your sad, but oddly relieved parents, and they'll silently agree. *unzips fly* *splashing sounds emanate from the dark hole the OP has excavated*
