Your car's little annoyances that you ignore
Tranny has a shitload of freeplay, also shifts pretty shitty and grinds sometimes, makes smooth shifting a pain, rough shifts annoy the crap out of me making it even worse
I've replaced basically everything brake related, and my pedal feel still sucks, for some reason right after I do something it feels great but always manages to go back to shit, I also hate having to hammer them to stop since they are so small, not hard to make them fade.
The stock shocks suck and dont dampen enough, and the stock springs are way too soft makes for shitty body motions that make the car tough to drive fast, I wish it cornered faster and was more confidence inspiring.
The stock aligment sucks, makes it hard to build grip since they dont have enough camber, not to mention the tires wear unevenly, 60 series tires suck too.
I keep getting it aligned, and the wheel is always cocked a little.
I wish it pulled harder, everywhere
h:
The stock shift knob is hard and small and gives me calluses, i also hate how far forward it is and the throws are a little too long.
Probably the worst gripe is how far out the wheel is, it seriously compromises my steering control, and i've been waiting for the stupid backordered wheel for months, I have the hub and quickrelease ready.
Understeer.
Chassis isn't all that stiff, i feel it in transitions, also not so confidence inspiring
Stupid bushings are already starting to squeak after six months, pulling them apart and regreasing is gonna be REALLY fun.
The stock seatbelt doesn't hold me in the seat very well, I want a harness.
Rust
I wish it revved quicker and I had pedals to make heel toe easier, flywheel is sitting in my room and pedals are on their way
That's about it

i got a story. a friend of mine just got an old 65 impala that he is going to restore it. the old man he bought it from said he had it for 35 years and bought it from the original owner whom owned a dealership. so it was always maintained, up a few years ago when the patked it in his barn and shortly after had to go into the hospital for quite some time. after a long recovery he went to check on the car and i guess it was trashed. interior shreaded by animals. the car had developed rust in numerous spots, chrome looks terrible, etc, etc. he said the one thing he could never figure out was this occasional pinging noise coming from some where in the rear. so my buddy starts tearing into the cars interior right away to get it ready to go to the body shop. in the rear passenger side inner door panel there was a old ass coke can dangling from a fishing line with a note taped to it that said, how long did it take you to find me. ans that is one of a bout a million reasons why i hate GM.
i realize this is a random story, but im drunk

I finally fixed mine, so easy I was :doh:for holding it off for so long 
When I open the door from the driver side, I have to turn it the left to lock then right to open. If I don't it sticks and doesn't feel good :nervous:

but she'll do well over 100 no problem
