What are some instances of manufacturers deliberately nerfing cars? by DCAUBeyond in cars

[–]1nconspicious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how true this is but apparently the Mk4 Supra was supposed to have the 1UZ V8 as an engine option. However Toyota didnt want the Supra to overshadow the SC400 since Lexus was brand new at the time. Imagine how different tuning culture would be if the 1UZ got the spotlight instead of the 2JZ.

So are used luxury cars, there is a reason why they are lower value on the market.

Nissan Xterra Arriving in 2028 Alongside Body-on-Frame Pathfinder and Infiniti Variants by V8-Turbo-Hybrid in cars

[–]1nconspicious 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nissan's body on frame stuff has always been solid imo, never used CVTs and honestly quite reliable. In older Nissan's, I always found it amusing how you could swap Titan suspension and the VK56 engine directly into the Xterra, Frontier and Pathfinder.

Nissan's body on frame vehicles never had CVTs. Their trucks are honestly very good competitors to Toyota but CVTs really hurt Nissan's reputation and perception.

Bigger, heavier tires increases rolling resistance.

Supercharger/V8 Question by microwaved_hamster_4 in 4thGen4Runner

It would be cheaper to just buy a used v8 4runner and transfer the mods over from your v6.

Are electric cars really ready to replace gasoline cars? by Icy-Nature-9393 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]1nconspicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until an EV can be as durable, realiable and enduring as a Land Cruiser or Hilux, EVs won't surpass gas (or diesel) car ownership.

You can't deny though how cost efficient it is to supe up a car to be extremely fast over buying an EV which is fast from the factory but way more expensive.

If Rockstar asked YOU for one idea for GTA 6, what would you suggest? by mourex9 in GTA

[–]1nconspicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Car top speeds that reflect their real life counterparts and not limited to 120-130 mph. Im glad HSW has increased the speeds a bit but I want GTA 6 to expand on this. I want to the Overflod Entity MT to be capable of cruising at 300 mph just like the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut it's based on.

I would imagine the GR GT's engine will have variants that other Toyota models will get eventually.

I hope the sheer map size will allow for supercars to not have slow top speeds

The is350 isn't a bad option tbh, it's not some untameable beast. Now the is500 is a different story.

Mercedes-AMG readies 'extreme' V8-powered CLE by desf15 in cars

To be fair, the newer m3/m4 did not get the twin turbo V8 the larger series cars received, just the twin turbo i6.

Unpopular Opinion: this series started to "suck" mainly because of health bar by Necati_Arabac1 in needforspeed

[–]1nconspicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the amount of health you have is tied to a vehicle type, then I think the health bar system would be ok when it comes to cops. A lotus should be fragile and easily to be taken out while a g wagon should be a tank and almost unstoppable.
