We all want to wake up in a new Bugatti but eventually you have to just accept your car for what it is, and maybe what it is just isn't enough. So we turn to mods, but what if completely replacing your car with a better one would reach your goal faster and cheaper than throwing every bolt-on in the universe at it? Should you mod, or should you replace?
Okay truthfully this is a READERS' RIDES episode and if you want to submit your own car, send pics to [e-mail] and maybe in the next year we'll take a look. Ring that bell so in eighteen months when your number's up you don't miss it.

The FA engines in the 86/BRZ they tried fixing the oil starvation issue the EJ's had, but it didn't completely fix it. As per my last comment about "100% of Subaru's breaking because of the owner" , back in the day I remember videos of people doing tight donuts in their WRX/STi and then it immediately has a spun bearing, its because of the same issue. The oil leans to one side and leaves the pick-up dry dead center of the pan. They put a baffle in the FA pan, but like you said, a long enough sweeping turn dries what oil collects on the baffle out.

The Mazda mini truck was badged the Ford Courier. I grew up in the Detroit area in the 80's. It seemed like every other kid in my hIgh school had a parent working for Ford, GM or Chrysler. Anyway.. You could always tell which cars had a lease deal because they'd be all over the place. At one point they had a killer deal for $25 a month to lease a Courier. Almost every kid got one to drive to school. I think I counted over 80 in the high school parking lot before I stopped counting. My neighbor was a Ford engineer. He used to bring home awesome cars to evaluate. Certainly not to reverse engineer for Ford. One of the coolest cars was the Audi Quattro Coupe.

[@cliffdweller9618]

Mini truck people are diy generation who loves the 90s. I can speak bc this is me too lol. We all know these aren't 50/50 balanced drift cars but they have lots of aftermarket, good sounds, 5sp manuals, and they're projects that usually start under $1k.

When I was younger, I couldn't afford much so doing the cheap stuff was the only option. Anything that changed the car was acceptable. When I got older, I realized that I wasted a ton of money doing little things that could've went to bigger things. But, now that I have kids, they all want to modify their vehicles. Spending tons of money on any mod isn't an option with the economy/inflation. My kids are lucky I can do all the work and not have to pay anyone. But the cost of a turbo isn't a few hundred anymore. 20 yrs ago, a supercharger and built engine cost around $5k. Today, the supercharger is $8k alone. I spent $3k on a fuel system alone in 2005 that is now $8k. But unless you wait till your old, retired, and can't really enjoy things, you need to do what you can young. Life is short and goes by quicker the older you get. I go to the track way less now than I did when younger. Just too tired now and don't want to put up with the bs. When you're young, bs is tolerable. Also, Karen's ruined everything. Environmentalist have ruined everything. None of the areas completely shut down that I used to go to is even recognizable anymore. Shutting them down did nothing but take away a place for kids/people to go enjoy. And they wonder why they have street takeovers. Not everyone wants to buy a sports car and drive it like a 4 door church car.
