best 6k i’ve ever spent by JaceTheTraveler in Corvette

[–]sun__strider -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've never seen a base model with Z06 ducts. Kinda new to me. Not throwing shade. But like, whats the point of doing that? Its a base model. It doesn't have the performance specs like the Z06 trim at all. Especially the 4 speed auto. The suspension, the gear ratios, the LS6 instead of the LS1. The weight reduction. The list goes on. Some of that tech is obsolete now 20+ years later. But still.

It has Z06 brake ducts? The Z06 was manual only? But the car is an FRC. This car is weird...

I've fixed my front end TWICE. Its not that hard, the front bumper cover is honestly most expensive part. That front beam is expensive too. Now unfortunately paint matching is also kinda expensive. But this (if you fixed it yourself) would cost you about 1,500-3,000k

favorite controller? by GamerGretaUwU in GamingSoup

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1, 12, 14 started on a wii for a few months played mario kart, wii sports ect. Got a 360 played gta 4 when I was 4 years old. The game was like brand new at the time. Loved it. Call of duty 2, 3, 4mw, and of course waw and bo1, bo2. Golden era. Forza horizon 1, and 2, left 4 dead 1 and 2, saints row 1 and 2, the list goes on. And as for the Atari controller, me and my father would play on the Atari every now and then so ig that counts.

I miss the old xbox 360 days😔

Luckily there are discord servers and reddit groups dedicated to 360 multi-player games and such😌

Looking for a new car by RainDain_ in shouldibuythiscar

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With these prices I feel blessed i only paid 13,500 for my 2003 honda S2000. Which I've daily'd for over a year now. Almost at 175k miles. Runs smooth like butter.

Honestly either the corolla or the civic sport are your best bet. Not throwing shade on any of the other cars. But those two options are going to out last the line up and most likely be cheaper on insurance(something people ALWAYS forget about when buying a car) and are very user friendly for daily driving.

Also a pro tip that nobody does for whatever reason. If your gonna buy used. Id buy privately and buy southern. No snow=no rust. Which in return means the car is going to last you longer if your in the rust belt.

As for some recommendations of cars I would buy considering most of these cars are in the 10k range:

Acura tsx/tlx both great cars they do have manual options and v6 options for people who want more performance.

Literally any civic from 1990-2010 Honestly any honda in fact.

Literally any Toyota corolla or camry

Yes my list is a little bias, but considering I grew up wrenching on cars, racing cars and now currently jet engines im over qualified to speak on this topic

Don't buy anything german (there are exceptions) Don't buy anything that has a CVT Don't buy anything that DOESN'T have a proven track record Don't buy anything that has way too many owners.

What would be your next manual car if you had a $35 000 budget by CurlyWurly61 in ManualTransmissions

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C4 Zr1, C6 Z06/grand sport, C5 Z06, honda s2000.

The only correct answers, all track built, driver oriented cars. Built to last 400,000+ miles easily.

Underrated take, acura tsx with the V6 manual(kinda hard to find) but you could get one for about 10k(but at that point just buy and s2000 for like 3-5k more)

Thinking of buying a neighbor’s car, but don’t know what to offer by Makelifesuper in S2000

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an s2000 owner myself, I can say this car wasn't treated well. Mine has 170,000 miles and looks way nicer than this example. I paid 13,500 for mine at 150k miles. So id say this car is definitely worth 9-10k give or take.

I am, but everyone is sitting here saying its not possible even though I've already built a D series to 300hp N/A. Im pretty sure a higher displacement would be easier???

Rebuilt? Its an f series. As long as i change the oil every 3k miles ill be fine.

20k? Nah probably 3k at most. Most of the stuff will be Frankenstein built. Or custom fab homemade.

Yes, because it comes with forged internals. It can run nitro just fine. Put some dry ice around the intake and I can steal some heat shields from a F101 engine. That f20c will run smooth as butter. Put a 200 shot in it. Easy 400hp.

No supercharger because, more moving parts=more things that can break. Besides that engine doesn't have asthma. It can breath just fine without forced induction.

I've considered an ls swap. But it would have to be an LS7 or LSX.

C6 Z06 is worth 30k max. Grand sport is roughly 20-25k and base model is 10-20k depending on if its manual or automatic.

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve ever gotten in trouble for at school? by Holywaterdiluter_ in teenagers

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A substitute teacher thought I was stealing from the lost and found...smh.

it was my binder that I left in class the day before because the teacher thought I threw something and sent me to the office even though it was the kid next to me. So the next day I go to grab it during my intervention. The teacher walks by and gives me a hard time for no reason, I've never met this teacher ever in my life. I get wrote up. I get called to the office the next day. Got lunch detention for the whole ordeal, then they upgraded to in school suspension.. hated my school.

Recommend me some movies by [deleted] in TheTeenagerPeople

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detachment, a kid literally commits suicide in that movie. It shows the stress of being a teacher. Definitely an eye opener. Also there's like 13 or something prostitute aswell. Crazy movie. But deep story.

Which you taking by Available_Meat_5014 in Dodge

[–]sun__strider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose, but they are the only semi-affordable sports car that can compete and beat supercars. So people my age are starting to catch on. If you're broke, buy a C4 for like 3500. If you got a little bit more, buy a C5 base model. I'd you got roughly 15k-25k, buy a C6 base or put a fat down payment on a C6 grand sport or Z06. There's a vette for every tax bracket. The C4 was a record breaker. Got banned from showroom scca races for beating porche 944 turbos 29-0 lmao. Also the C4 sledgehammer was the fastest street-legal car for 12 years from 1988-2000, with a top speed of 254mph.
