YOU, leave now! :mad:

Well living with your parents for the rest of your life while letting them work their asses off while you sit and demand things you want from them isn't going to work or give you any life lessons either. :p

Or, get a job > get money > buy car > get women/man = quite appy-ish person

Yep. The 3800sc had three series (plus a pre-series) each one improving the other. The 3800sc is among the most common swap for this car, then the Northstar V8, LS, 350, etc. The engine I really want to get is the 3800sc from the late model Pontiac Grand Prix GTP/GTX.

This will do.

Ice cream and chocolate cakes, don't forget those too.

But in my opinion you have the better looking Impreza gen. I get sick of seeing the 3rd gen models that everyone "stances" around where I live. These 3rd gens and VW are common scene cars now like how the Civic were in the early 2000's (still is).

All I can say is that the sound is quite unique compared to other cars on the road. Plus you can hear the sound of the air getting sucked in through the inlet grille behind the driver door on the outside. :) Other future plans I got for this is to: - Redo the interior from a light grey to black - New seats - 17" ASA AR1 wheels (Black w/ machined lip) for summer setup - LED light kit everywhere (i.e. front turns, rear tail + reverse, interior) - Possibly lower it some more - Side scoop panels in front of the rear tires on both sides - New radio + subs That should be it for now. Yep, an astonishing 110hp for the Iron Duke... I too get puzzled why that low of numbers for these engines, I'm guessing for fuel consumption. There is already 125k miles on the engine. Soon/eventually I'll do an engine swap to it, 3800sc most likely. I could go Northstar V8 (common head gasket issues), LS3, 350 small block. Could possibly even put a v6 Camry engine in it somehow and mind blow the hell out of the MR2 owners, but probably have the hate criticism meter shatter.

The body will need to be repainted, there are some paint chips and cracks that I retouched with touch-up paint for now. In terms of swapments, I would like to do an engine swap and manual trans conversion. Being that this is my only car as of now, it's not happenin' just yet. This car is more of a cruiser, and the 3-speed on the highway isn't bad at all. Just like you said, it is a tall 3rd. Thing is, the v6 that is in it has a nice low tone to it. I hate to change it, might just go buy another Fiero for my "fast" needs. What I like about this car too is that in the car you sit pretty low and most cars around you are like monster trucks, all you see are mostly doors. Then when you get out of this car and into another car , you feel like you are sitting high ready to go off-roading. :lol:

A little info about the Fiero. Pontiac division of General Motors brought this car out from 1984 to 1988. There were two different engine options that were in this car from the factory, the "Iron Duke" 2.5L I4 and the 2.8L V6. The Fiero also had a badge of either a 2m4 or 2m6. Two seater Mid-engine I4 or V6. Transmission came in either a 3-speed automatic, 4-speed manual or two types of 5-speed manual (Isuzu or Getrag(better)). In 1988 the Fiero had an updated suspension which improved the handling dramatically using a real tri-link suspension at the rear which looked similar to what Lotus was using (was about to be acquired by GM) but wasn't in any way Lotus designed for the Fiero. GM originally designed the suspension from the racing program that they studied from. The Fiero (especially the 1984 version) had a bad reputation for catching fire due to two main issues. One was oil leaking out of the rocker cover gaskets and heads and dripping on the hot manifold. Pontiac recalled and added a splash shield over the manifold to stop this. Another is that the coolant pipes under the car run along the side of the car. With inexperienced mechanics attempting to lift the car, they would mount the lift pads on the pipes thinking it is safe when in fact crushing the pipes cutting the flow of coolant circulation Obviously The Fiero is rivaled with the Mk1 Toyota MR2. In the USA the Fiero outsold the MR2. Pontiac also made a version of the Fiero that looked similar to the Ferrari 308 called the Mera, only 247 were made from 1987 to 88. There was going to be a second gen Fiero that a 1990 prototype was going to show. But due to the lack of sales towards the final end of the Fiero, it wasn't going to happen. The prototype design later became the Firebird. The trim package that I own is the Formula (only on 1988 models). It's everything the GT trim had performance wise in 88, but implemented it into the notchback body version, plus different front and rear fascia and large rear wing. Little specs about MY car: 2.8L L44 V6 140 hp (104 kW) at 5200 RPM and 170 lb·ft (230 Nm) of torque at 3600 RPM 3 speed automatic :( Manual rack and pinion About 2,600lbs (1180 kg) (heavy due to body safety features) Um.. Red :lol: Pop-up headlamps :D I haven't yet gotten to take any clean interior and engine shots, but I can provide you with some of the repair work pictures I did take for now. The old and new engine cradle: You're looking through the trunk and passenger rear wheel well, the driver side was the same: I removed enough rust off this car to make 4 good bowls of metal corn flakes. And yes, all of the holes and frame work is all repaired and coated with bedliner and rubberized undercoating. The engine was repaired too replacing gaskets, distributor, spark plug wires and plugs, thermostat and exhaust manifold bolts.

At least there are A LOT of people that care about your car, I only have a few hand full with mine.

:lol:

This. And also, if a relationship is ever established and later on it becomes sour and or falls apart, don't completely break yourself apart. Try to re-evaluate what perhaps caused the issue, learn from it and see what you can do to avoid it. If you're going to try to fix the relationship at least try it out if it is necessary. If it doesn't work then just start the process of moving on. The friends you hang out with a lot will play a major roll when moving on. With a little story, I was in a relationship and everything seemed to go out quite well. Even though we sort of lived far apart, we were able to see each other during the weekend. I was quite indeed happy at the time, but then out of the blue she decided to leave me. I was hurt a bit when she told me this wasn't going to work out, but I sat and evaluated why -in my logic- the relationship didn't stay. The main key reasons was we decided to "try" it out and also the lack of seeing each other everyday. But on the positive side, I had a good close friend of mind help support me to do things to keep my mind off the matter. Also, three days after the break up I got my car finished and fixed up. Sucks for her she didn't get to ride shotgun in my car. :D

Well making it would obviously kill the point of an "anti-social" thread... :lol:

Found this Futo on an empty stretch of road.

Sports car in snow.

I think you know where these were. ;)

Beware, dubstep is present. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSdUoLEW31g My fav, I officially had to buy GTA5 for good knowing that this song was in it: (Swearing)

^ If you put it that way, I'm afraid of a lot of females. :lol:

I rarely give out money for charities. -I know-, but this for me is something big for myself for both reason. One is for the loss of a well known man in the car world, and for the typhoon victims in the Philippines (some of my relatives were effected too) as well as other natural disaster victims. I donated $10 to (Paul Walker and his friend's) ROWW organization. I made this sticker for myself and put it on my car to show my full support. And to show proof that I did, this is the e-mail I received right after donating, I wish that they show how much you donate.

Well here is my boring video of me driving my car around and yes, it's auto... :(
