sif buy a jeep.... dont' you have youtube? those things'll kill ya :P

lol thought that was just new ones...

Jeeps are rated well for off road capability, interiors are a bit cheap like sitting in a plastic bucket

not too fussed about interior quality/luxuries

How reliable are older jeeps? Say early 90s

Obviously they're no toyota landcruisers but how do they compare? Also, old cherokees ever come in manual?

Xoxo <3

Which model specifically and for what use? A girl I knew, who practically stalled everytime she moved off the line (dat cringe when 300rpm launch), managed to get her daily driver Wrangler to 250,000km before it developed engine rattles.

???

Just laughing at the fact that they actually have to cut the bonnet, to make it function.

Or people just buy the bonnet bulge for looks.

ignore him... he's just that asian kid from "From Dusk Till Dawn" trying to get another 15 miutes

LOL! Fucking this guy.

well clearly you are going to have to cut the bonnet for a vent to work lol

Was more so pointing out the fact that the stock bonnet has to be modified to make it function...

Where as you buy a JDM car, like an EVO, there is already a functioning vent.

Or remake a whole entire bonnet, like the Nismo Z-Tune bonnet, for example.

What's the point in the bulge though?

The bulge goes back to the oldschool SS's where the engine didn't actually FIT in the engine bay

Edit: It's either purely for looks (Surely the OEM bonnet wouldn't overheat the engine, so it requires a vent for cooling) , or it is to accomodate a Walkie Top mount supercharger kit or some crap like that...

Edit 2:

WALKINSHAW PERFORMANCE POWER HOOD SCOOP SWB

The Performance "Power Hood" Scoop has been designed in the heritage of the original Walkinshaw Commodore from 1988. The Hood Scoop is the perfect sports accessory for the new VE range.Very aggressive appearance.

Looks like it is mainly visual only...

I don't mind the E2 Intake Scoop though...

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
