Me 3 :lol:
No wait, I'm still driving it
And it's jumping out of 4th gear... and it needs a new windscreen... and new rear tyres very soon... and it's got an oil leak... and the synchros on 3rd & 5th are dodgy... yeah, I need to get rid of it.
I have let friends drive mine after asking "can you rev match?" and they all say yes. so I let them drive and first some guy managed to put 1st while redlining 2nd, then some douchebag "downshifted" without revmatch while redlining almost all of the gears. etc etc, so now I pretty much have no syncros on all the gear, Im the only one that can shift without feeling resistence (im the only one used to the car)
the front bumper is a complete mess due to a crash a while ago, I have a 2nd miata I can take the bumper off of, but its cold and its too much work, so It looks like it was punched in the face.
right pop up light is being held up by a metal rod lodged into other metal bits
interior is half stripped down/half broke . right speaker is falling off.
steering wheel is old and it looks like it feel in acid.
pedals dont have any rubber no more.
engine sputters between 1-4k rpms, might be due to plug cables but whnever I get new ones, the sputtering comes back after a few days/months.
racing flywheel/clutch, so it makes a horrible grinding noise from 2-4k rpms
needs tires, I had bald azenis on it but had to remove it due to rain/snow (bald azenis and rain is some fucked up shit). I rather bald azenis than allseasons but have to wait till everything dries up.
got stuck in the snow once and the only way I could get out was to drag the right side on the guardrail for what it seemed like miles, so it has this HUGE crazy scratches on the right side.
back bumper is cracked...might be from snow?
left fender scrapes the wheel because of the under cover thing is lower somehow and refuses to go back up. left fender is also dented.
windows are as hard as rock to pull up/down, and I cant figure out why. right window has no handle to pull up/down (idk what they are called)
heater barely works, air is leaking somewhere and I cant figure out why.
aircon is gone but I never use that, so It doesnt matter. not to mention it brings my little 1.6l down to what it seems like 10HP is turned on.
back window is almost opaque.
suspension is gone.
alignment cant be adjusted to how I like it due to offramp+oil+curb
overheats once every few months for no reason.
crank pulley started to wobble a bit....this I have to fix soon or else I fear it will die.
belt started to squeal at low rpms, belt dressing only makes it go away for a few hours, so Idk whats up with that.
leaks very little water, but enough to keep me busy once a month or so
I could go on. but that being said, its the funnest car Ive ever driven (among z4s/cobras/race sti/etc) and I wouldnt trade it for anything else except another one in better shape. But I really dont care about the body/interior/looks, I just want to figure out the sputtering/belt squeal/pulley wobble. then it would be perfect again.
