Optimistic Speedometer. Doesn't look like the one from top gear to me. I'm more concerned with the statement that it handles very well, what must a person drive in the past to say that handles well?

There's a setting in the time based accel enrichment dialog that dictates the relation to engine RPM with more authority than EAE. Full accel below and zero accel above, those settings linearly scale...

I can't speak for everyone but for South Florida it seems that we dodged a bullet and the storm was largely uneventful. We got a good amount of rain, but nothing crazy, and wind was rarely any worse than...

For sure, and on top of being useful for hauling it takes the pressure off of any work on the E30 (like pulling the head to finally extract that damned broken hardened stud) since I have a second, more...

Thanks, we need it. I've seen too many last minute turns to do anything other than prepare for a direct hit.

And I really hope that doesn't happen because I really like the truck I just bought...

I was expressing surprise at how high the price was. This is BaT, a pretty rough common E28 eta shell with an "ok" interior and a pretty unremarkable drivetrain (S50B30US) seems like a recipe...

Wasn't this one on BaT recently? Looks familiar. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...25i-touring-8/

Not an E30, but an interesting S50 swapped car: https://bringatrailer.com/list...

Is it just me or is Offerup a completely crap website? I'm looking around on craigslist and autotrader for a truck and someone told me I should check offerup. I registered an account, started searching,...

Are Frontiers even any good? I was not impressed by the one I rented in 2017, and it had very low miles it's not like it was a trashed high mileage rental. It drove like a new light truck, that's really...

It appears to be a slicktop, that does a lot for value. With no knowledge of the Aussie car market I don't know what E30 prices have looked like over the past few years, but $21,000 AUD is $14,208 USD...

Not cherrypicking at all, M20, M54 and LS1 are the first 3 engines I thought made sense in this context considering OP's original poll and thread discussion.

The S54 is a performance dynamo,...

Sorry for any confusion, but I quoted what I specifically meant to address, which is "no torque for the size". 77lbft/L is far from that, it's actually damn good, and the Honda motor compares...

Has flagging ever actually worked? I've been flagging dealership spam and scams as long as I've been on craigslist and I've never come back the next day to find it removed.
