  1. so he told all his pupils why his wife left him.... you are full of shit

  2. good choice- V6 camrys are the shit- right? and you might be able to still get parts for it in 10 or 15 years.....

  3. they were designed to negotiate sand and loose dirt- people ignore that and thats why they were outlawed....

  4.  @BrendenRoughley  not to mention how pre-cats burn valves, warp cylinder heads and even warp aluminum blocks. first clue is usually a blown head gasket.

  5. 225hp tops with a stock motor and holley/V65 manifold fuel system. that's after the valve timing is corrected- a MUST for these motors. your figures are patently false. the pond racer motors made 1000hp and that was with two-stage boosting and crazy fuel & compression. i've built many VG 510 sedans and if you are willing to go with solid lifters, modded rockers, and billet race cams you can get close to 300hp ON PUMP FUEL, but its not very civilized. we usually stuck with bill good cam profiles on the nismo billets and kept the hydraulic lifters. about 250hp with a proper exhaust system and 690 cfm modded 2300 holley carb, but its all motor and its right there off idle. incredible torque & power band for a N/A 3.0 litre motor.

  6.  @mescko  good luck finding a VG33 block that is within snot for building a hot motor. i tried to get one checked out for a client and the shop said it needed align-boring (main saddles) AND decked back to square. 3 blocks- same story- and no guarantees on any bearing wear. the japanese-made blocks i have used all checked out OK (first time) and thats all i will use and guarantee. boring a VG block (91MM) TO 93MM is risky and a good way to end up with an ash can full of expensive junk. those are cast cranks and can take everything out under failure at high speed- just not worth it to swap used parts unless you know what you are doing. used pistons have to be thoroughly media-blasted, inspected and dye-checked for cracks/trouble spots. new pistons for a VH45DE cost over $740 for 6 pieces- VG pistons much cheaper. why gamble by putting both pistons AND block at risk for failure? the best way to get torque from a VG30 4WD WD21 pathfinder would have been to order JWT's VG30 supercharger kit and bolt the damn thing on. 60 more hp and 100+ more lbs./ft. done.

  7.  @jonathanrigley981  too bad cuz the 88's and 89's are the turbos to have if you care about performance and reliability. the rear-ends in those cars are a 510/610 guy's dream-come-true.

  8. i showed your post to a couple of recyclers here in the san diego area and they just laughed at it. the yards who go thru the trouble of cleaning the catalyst just do it with a chop saw and dump out the pellets or slide the matrix out in two or more pieces, takes about 30 seconds. further cleaning/separation on a small scale is pointless cuz they don't lose enough money to justify it. the platinum is valuble- the tiny amounts of silver or rhodium are paid out like mixed- next to worthless. the gold bars got the biggest laugh.

  9. i've heard of falling in love with a car but thats ridiculous

  10. BS- they bought daihatsu because they couldn't figure out how to build a reliable motor. the toyota daihatsus are even more reliable to this day.....

  11. thats nonsense

  12. but then again- to many people, it's just another car. i've never really tried to understand the public perception of ferraris- i've always looked at them as items of form and function, and as rolling artwork that can be driven. they are like california real estate- if you bought it a long time ago, you were lucky and got in cheap....

  13. don't worry- he'll remind you later

  14. about 25 bucks for a single-wire unit

  15. known as a groiner- most people do it on the dominant-leg side. ouch for quite a while.

  16. who were you fighting with- the taxi companies??

  17. a doberman would work better- as long as you can train it to leave the cats alone- hardy har har

  18. aww, your comment got a little heart on it.

  19. now, if only the a/c was that easy...

  20. whole different car. the original L16 made more power than that- with only four spark plugs.

  21.  abbsnn cose  wow- way overdue. you need to rip that thing down and let us know what you find.
    2
  22. that may be where i'll have to go to find one.... are there cute wives there, too??

  23. in the news, i saw a thief got pinned under a lowered prius somewhere near LA- maybe UR onto something....

  24. my older brothers saw that tank truck in my hand and they would run for cover cuz they knew what was next

  25. you can make your own now- thanks to DNA and Tamiya paints.

  26. no, they'll steal the whole dodge ram just to get that 24-valve cummins- happens all the time.

  27.  @josephcottone9613  the engines were NOT the reason for the incident- do your homework
    2
  28. a test pipe would make a lot more sense.

  29. IF they steal the truck, at least you'll hear which direction they took off in.....

  30. the pl-510 never came from the factory with the L18 engine- not in ANY market. this rumor was started when the SCCA started allowing L18s in the B sedan 510s in '76

  31. almost as many lemons WERE selected, it seems....

  32. its a good thing studebaker came out with that one, right??

  35. in eastern europe they still build trabants, too. decisions- decisions.

  36.  @JordonPatrickMears11211988  the complaint is that the car does not offer a true independent suspension while many cars costing thousands less DO offer independent suspensions. that is a big problem when youre in the business of selling cars.

  37. not here in cali- you still see lots of em in glamis- just cant buy a new one

  38. the plastic ones are all over the place

  39. unless you were a big 12-year-old- you were too light to ride a 200 or 250

  40. pl510s were around before there was a 210 (B310) or 310 (N10). misinformation. the first 210s and 310s were non-USA models.

  41. youre a little bit late- it was disguised as a GT-R

  42. sounds like a great neighborhood- how are the schools??

  43. well, he didn't say dad didn't have to put a nickel into it- he just said it ran like a champ (plymouth champ??) after 500,000 miles.

  44.  @dylangrewell2351  not unusual at all- it costs more to get the vehicle thru the warranty period than the automatics- thanks to Our Great American Driving Habits.
    1
  45.  @droman608  more like 'increased warranty expenses' from previous experience. all it takes is one idiot who doesn't understand how a clutch works.

  46. your intellectual age doesn't count...

  47. do you have any of your natural teeth left??

  49. muk- when i was little, all we had were the xke jaguars. they were cool, but there was a lot more oil and transmission fluid on the road back then.
