Car Makes - September 2007

This is more of a statement then a question because I didnt get a chance to respond. It seemed like some people may have though the 1983 Nissian 280zx electramotive turbo that had 700hp and a 140mph 1/4 mile time was a factory produced vehical. This is absolutely not the case, this car was a race car that was NEVER offered to the public and was never a factory produced car for the public. Like stated, there is was never a stock factory produced Nissian 280zx turbo that is capable of a 140mph 1/4 mile speed. It would be like when some one asks the question "whats faster, a new ZO6 corvette or a ford edge" and some one answers "the ford edge would because it is a 800hp car" because they included the nascar versions. Now come get your easy two points and an additional 10 for some one.

Aren't they using the same engine?

Listed mileage for 2008 A3 is 21/29
For 2007 it's 25/34

Anyone have any explanation?

I have a 2000 328i w/ sport package. I need new tires and was looking at some pretty aggressive directional tires (that's what was on it when I bought it, used) but then was told that european cars, esp. sport sedans, wear them pretty bad and especially on the inside edges(this is where mine are bad, but the shop that told me didn't know this), regardless of how on top of alignment and balancing you are. Any truth to this?

I have replaced the fuel filter, the throttle positioning sensor, cleaned the injectors, and also replaced the oxygen sensor. I dont know where to look next.

Usually It idles ok, but when you accelerate it hesitates before speeding up. When you get about 45 or 50 it runs pretty well, but between 30 and 45 its a little rough.

Well just for info, my brother and I are working on a '62 Bel Air.
As of now we are replacing full floor pans and such, but I have a few questions.
My first is about the interior.
I have looked for a few weeks, and I'm still unable to find a true reproduction of Bel Air door panels. (2 door sedan, specifically, color green)
I have found Impala door panels, but they are very different in design.
I would be greatful if someone could help me out on that.
Also, the car originally came with a straight 6 and an automatic transition.
My brother and I are planning on putting in a 5.7L 350 small block
with a 4 speed tranny.
Does anyone know if the modifications we have to do to the car are going to be too serious? i know that we'll have to chop a hole in the new floor and such, and shave the column shifter, but is it "safe" to change an automatic to a manual?
Don't get me wrong my brother knows what he's dealing with very well.
These questions are just for me, because I am very curious.

Thanks

Do you think this is a good buy? Are firebirds any good as far as reliability goes? What do you think?

- 2002 Dodge Ram 1500, 2 wheel drive.

- Makes a whurring/hollowing noise. The sound occurs when accelerating from a dead stop. I would describe it as a muffled seal bark.

- I presume its the rear differential. Would changing the fluid fix this? Any suggestions?

I'm currently making payments on my altima(1995). I got it last year in November but I think that I'm paying more than what it's worth... It was almost $7000. What should the price be for a used 1995 Altima?

My turbo went on my renault grand scenic 2 weeks ago. The car is only 2 years old. Apparently this is a common fault with the renauly Dci, but not well heard of, even though renault are well aware of it. Just in case it happens to you, ask about their OTS scheme. Renault will assist towards the cost of the turbo. Just thought I would warn other renault car owners! I got the cost of mine down from 3,500 euro to 1300 euro bec i did my homework! Check out www.ihaterenault.com. Hope this helps people out. :)

I have a 96 Dodge Ram 1500, and it feels like the tranny is going out. (For more details, see one of my other questions that has all the information and details on this problem: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiyMFO0Czqg0kBcll6Y_ekTsy6IX?qid=20070831215850AAHsYZH)

So should I get a new tranny? What kind should I get? How much would that be? And instead of getting another stock 4-speed automatic, should I upgrade to like a 5-speed automatic or even a manual? And how much more would that cost?
