People are entitled to their preferences, so I don't harp on the AT/MT debate, but I 100% agree.

My bad, I didn’t realize debates are strictly a childish thing

Yeah, must be the sound of them sliding into a curb at a standstill.

NEVAR NOT SERIOUS. ALWAYS STRICT

"Normal wear and tear does not typically cause bearings to go bad before piston rings, cylinder bores, etc." is pretty far from an absolute

No. Bearings almost never go before piston rings, cylinder walls, or often even head gaskets on many select motors - outside of external factors that prematurely wear them. Overrevving, oil starvation, etc. If you don’t believe this to be a fact, then you’re simply wrong. Ive torn engines down...

Normal wear and tear does not typically cause bearings to go bad before piston rings, cylinder bores, etc. Obviously if the bearings are bad they could spin or cause low oil pressure. This goes without saying. If you read the entire post, you would not get hung up on this. You are an adult...

Yeah, threw the P-zeros around on the snow a little yesterday, very fun but also completely not suited for it. -18C here on the east coast. Absolutely getting winter tires next season for the Mustang.

What's the benefit of replacing the hydraulic system, in your opinion? I've always felt the old cable operated or mechanical linkage clutch pedals have been worse in many regards.

Tell me you didn't comprehend what I wrote without telling me you didn't comprehend what I wrote

Rome Artifact on da mustang. Thats sick. Where do you ride?

I've yet to experience it on my car. Granted, its a gen 1 coyote, but so far so good. Only thing I do is use 5w-30 instead of recommended 5W-20. I've heard it linked to a multitude of things. Timing chain, cavitation, cylinder bore to piston clearance. At this point, I just accept they we'll...

For what its worth, worn bearings don't typically kill motors unless you've been doing stupid stuff. 9 times out of 10, a worn motor needs a rebuild or overhaul because of piston rings, loss of compression, etc. I cannot remember the last time I heard a car knocking or needing new bearings...

Driving a RWD in the snow is hardly a problem with good snow tires. With the older mustangs that have a solid rear, the biggest risk was uneven bumps or off cambered corners/roads that upset the rear suspension. Just one unanticipated bump hitting a single rear wheel could lead to the rear end...

It doesn't even have to rev particularly high so long as its a fun N/A powerband. I've driven plenty of fun N/A cars that only rev to around 6800 rpm. Low end torque is stupid fun when its a linear powerband. They will literally never do it though.

I'm certain it can be done, I'm just saying I don't know what it exactly is. The simple answer: More surface area, hahah.

I know Misha is looking into adding forced induction. I would consider holding off for a minute and waiting for him to make some runs with that thing in the spring/summer of '26. See how his car takes to it. Most people seem to say the same thing, its hard to manage heat with the whippled...

hahahah, I'm done, I promise

Just gonna repeat it a final time, and this video sort of proves a point. On dry pavement, in 40 degree weather, you wont have a Porsche magically slide into a curb leaving a parking lot unless you're doing something really stupid. I could care less what the tires are short of racing slicks...

If you floor it, yes, it will break traction at 10 miles an hour, but it will not just slide into a curb without deliberate input. There's still friction to the pavement, it wont just slip slide at that speed. I can push any rwd car sideways in a parking lot with any normal tires at any...
