If the sports car you're driving can't kill you than why the fuck did buy it? (Pic isn't mine ofc)
>>23248164>Turn off the electronic nanniesmy car doesn't even come with traction control
>>23250206Then I'm not referring to you am I?
>>23250212
>>23249888You’re saying you can’t just buy a bag of fuckin bread? Even just to tho out? How poor are you?
So what do you drive OP?
Has anyone managed to import a car as "substantially similar" ?I want a RS3 hatchback in the US.The body is sold on the A3, so it conforms to crash test requirements.The engine is sold in the RS3 sedan, so it conforms to emissions. I would need to swap out the windshield, headlights, and turn signals but that's not a big deal.
>>23247279t.
>>23239086Nonono that's not it. The screencap was pointing out that nothing upsets glownigger more than when people outsmart them.
>>23247989Yeah there's probably some importer who can get one for you and fudge the FMVSS mods enough to pass.
>>23242644>So many cool cars in USWhat are you talking about? We don't get anything cool here.
>>23246705Nobody here is a CCP shill, however I will say at least the CCP actually cares about the people's requirements while in America the politicians only care about lining the pockets of the rich at the expense of the rest of the people.
If you fancy yourself riding across asia, where the roads are inconsistent (from first world tier to literally nonexistent altogether), what kinda bike would you recommend?I personally like BMW GS but I don't think it's easy to source parts especially in third world countries
>>23249285CT110 or similar.
>>23249285For me it’s the Honda CG125
>>23249285BMWs are a meme. I would get an XR650L or something. It's a big, ugly pig, but it's aircooled, hasn't changed for 30 years, and it's nondescript.
MZ ETZ 250**if it was 1990
what parts would you need. tires?the older GSs are pretty simple mechanically the only downside is the size and weight (and looking like a foreigner i guess)
don’t buy c-clamps from harbor freight.
What's a good tool for this? I might be doing my brakes soon. Something cheap preferably
I heard that y'all like clamps, here's mine
>>23247818Probably these >>23243908They’re only like $20-$25 on Amazon and come with all the assorted adapters for the parking brake (if needed).
>>23243819you need a special tool to do this? i just use pliers
>>23243953>Lidl pry barMine broke after I tried to use the striking cap.
Has anyone used them?Best on just front, or front + back?
>>23248686You can usually have the window open enough and not get rain in. Window deflectors are cringe 'visual mod' type shit
>>23247997I bought mine for €50 front and back.Drivers one fits funky but ill live with it.
I used to have chrome window guards. It was back when covering a car in accessories and especially in chrome was fashionable. Then it became unfashionable.
It used to be that everybody on the custom scene in my locality would lower their car back and front, and de-seam it as much as possible. Off came the chrome, logos, door handles and handle lips plated over, even trimming off the rain gutters and smoothing them. Vents welded over. They looked good, like a 1930s bakelite contraption. Then one day Mavis brought a car drenched in chrome, badges, suitcases, skis to the showground. Everybody plumped their tits and went back to the garage. Two years later.
>>23243176lmao so what
what is the most comfortable reliable and safe suv?
/thread
>>23249712an old suburban or tahoe, or ford excursion with the 7.3
>>23249726>safeIt’s the Volvo XC90other than that you’re right though
>>23249712Probably a Land Cruiser, it's what all the rich people get when they don't want a loud luxury brand
land cruiser/lexus lx, comfy and built like a tank
>>23250424>i don't know what locking diffs are please rape my stupid face
>>23247319>no dieselyeah thats an instant no-go for the entire world outside of usa.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate you reflexes?
>>232336626
>>23233662it took me 6 minutes to read your post and type a response.
>>23246620im prepared while im driving too. That's just my natural reaction time, sorry you're not faster
>>23233700this, my reaction time is around 5-6, but if you're anticipating situations, you will avoid problems, i have an uncle, is driving for more than 25 years he never had an accident, because he says to treat all people who drive like idiots who don't know how to drive>a retard pedestrian/kid/dog want to cross the road>a tard don't use the signal or the mirrors
>>232336625-8 in my best days
Everyone wants a beefy engine with a shitton of horsepower and reliability. But what about transmissions? What are the best transmissions in the industry? The worst?
>>23247482Powershift is based
>>23248484They have a plethora of issues. The fun thing about them is how much aftermarket parts are available for customization. The shitty thing about them is 4l80e's are about the same cost as a built one...
>>23247314>>23247732Ahem
>>23249114The problem with 4l80s is it isn't a direct swap most of the time. It's easier to just get the 60 rebuilt/overbuilt to not die than it is to swap out all the necessary parts for the bigger tranny. Honestly at 275k in a half ton truck I'm impressed the only issues mine have are an occasional sloppy 1-2 shift and a good hard thud into reverse.Speaking of, where would be the best place to get a rebuilt tranny anyway? Should I chance one of the local shops around town to rebuild mine or just bite the bullet and get one online somewhere?

Converting my RX8 to Hydrogen, how likely am I to roast myself?
>>23244646Why would you want to make an already underpowered, uneconomical and unreliable car make less power, be less economical and be less reliable?
>>23245983Free gas boi
>>23246906Where in the world is hydrogen free?
>>23244646lol, tyrone would do that.
use methane instead
I got a dash cam with a rear camera. After playing around with different locations for the rear camera, this weird ass spot on the roof liner away from the window gives me the best view. How do I mount this without fucking shit up?
>>23250465you should take the time to route it so its near the license plate, where a backup camera belongs.
>>23250465>body panelsWtf are you taking off fenders and bumpers?
>>23250489Interior trim panels, my bad.>>23250480I was originally going to do that but like I said the angle is shit. Also I don't know if the camera would survive outside.>>23250471No. Just in case I get hit. It's also always on and displaying on the screen over my rear view mirror. My rear visibility is shit and this vastly improves it. Also my backup camera.
>>23250229Bullshit, Trannie needs to cut their nails. You will never be a woman.
>>23250571Why are you so obsessed with trannies?
Tired of modern cuckmobiles? Why don't you just build your own dream car, anon?
i would like to build a simple electric truck that resembled a mule but bigger and with a cab like a fork lift

>>23249962
>>23249223I would, if I knew how to weld, and could stand to commute in a tube-frame with no heating, AC, or stereo.

parents are fucking pissed right now. what the fuck am i.supposed.to do? I was going to pay half the payments from my job as a door dash driver and now I'm probably gonna lose my license
>>23250642>later on in life he'll think he's badass "cause he's been to jail before" like that is a good thingit's not a good thing. but it can make someone more badass.some badasses used to be dumbasses until they got their ass kicked enough times
>>23247611I'll give you $2k for the car cash in hand
>>23247639>The only solution is to enlist in the marines until you learn to function in civilization you stupid fucking apeeven the marines is a no go with a DUI right now, maybe when Biden puts us in a war he has a chance though
>>23247712Look up high risk insurance. On a $500 car you're looking at $400/mo for liability
>>23247716In my state 10k is pretty accurate.
Would this universal alternator work/fit in my car? I just talked to my pops and he said it might be the wrong one but just a guess
