Looking at a 1987 Toyota MR2. Guy is selling it for $5,000 USD. Only issues that it has are some surface rust and then interior head unit, speakers need to be re-done and potentially a new exhaust. Brand new clutch and fluid flush and no leaks. Says it runs great but I’d need to see it in person to be sure.

I’ve been wanting one of these as a project and I’m not sure if anyone has any advice. I’ve done body and paintwork on older cars before so I don’t think that would be too big of an issue.

OEM Engine cover completely broke on the plastic clips holding it on. Should I try and zip tie it on? Or is it fine if I leave it off until I get a new one? I don’t know how much this affects air being directed to the top mounted intercooler

I was driving to work on the highway this morning when I braked to slow down as there was slow traffic ahead. This big pickup truck that had been riding bumper to bumper with me for a while, honked at me and passed me on the shoulder.

All of the stones and gravel hit my vehicle and caused a large crack on my windshield. I’m being quoted for $1700 to replace the entire windshield because of if I file an insurance claim my premium is going to sky rocket after calling them. I’m super annoyed because I don’t want to have to pay almost $2,000 for something that worked just find that I didn’t do anything to.

This just goes to show that no matter how safe you are you can’t control other peoples stupidity. Some guy who can’t be patient just costed me a lot of money that I don’t really want to spend. I’m just glad nobody got hurt and it’s just a windshield that can be replaced. Stay safe out there friends.

I’m trying to clean up the engine bay and replace some of the parts from the previous owners and I was wondering what the box around the battery was called. Obviously it’s too big for the current battery and looks like garbage it’s in current state, but I was wondering where I could get a replacement.

Has anyone used this 5W-30 in their WRX or STI?
