>>28691169fix it urself retard lol
>>28691169i unironically don't have time and i refuse to spoonfeed a bitch nigga
>>28691183>>28691184lot of big talk and yapping, but none of the MR2 making. As expected.It's really pathetic to see.See I just want to race a car. So the most I can do is just download a mod off the internet and hope it's any good. Maybe I will tweak the setup of the car because I have a basic understanding of that.But you, lol, constantly posturing as a know it all, but in reality you are a do nothing.>>28691186>i unironically don't have timeNice, I can respect that, you are under no obligation to help out if you are unable to. The good thing about this is that you should understand my position well then, being that you share it.
>new to beamng >having a bitch of a time trying to get modern vehicles to stop spinning out >raged and turned tcs off>stopped spinning out wtf, beam?
>>28691257game is realistictraction control prevents the driver from achieving >>28689897 whereby even in situations with extremely low traction, as long as your wheels are spinning you have forward thrust and directional control. when the TCS tries to brake to regain control of the vehicle, it assumes you do not want your forward momentum to continue and will try to stop the car from doing that. in a low traction driving situation like driving on dirt this will just make you spin out by jamming on the brakes and cutting the throttle while the car is already at a weird angle, preventing what little traction you have from becoming thrust that can be used to push you away from the tree or ditch you are sliding toward.traction control is generally not useful for any kind of fun driving, though many cars like the bruckell bastion and etk k-series have sport mode tcs that does allow you to slide the car and will attempt to use the brakes to control the car's yaw angle instead of making it stop. however, these systems are usually calibrated for paved surfaces and don't work quite as well on dirt.>>28691196sorry i don't have time to read your gay ass cope post you seething shartster slowfag/qa/ lost btwyou will never be a racing drivergit good
>the wheel bearing is guarded by the impossible lock nut
>>28689299I will if I can find one.
>>28688536>it says the abs ring rotates when it shouldntThat is how it supposed to work. how would it determine wheel speed if it didnt rotate>>28689283replace the bearing and then see if it is still fucked, the only way those things wear out is like on GM cars where they use a rubber ring embedded with magnets which will disintegrate over time>>28688285>Notice those splinesThe splines are part of the wheel hub, not the bearing. press out the hub, press out the bearing, do the reverse.>>28688118nigger just press that shit out. you do have a 20 ton press right? if not just take that hub assembly to a shop and have them do it.
>>28690215>just press it outThere's a lock nut preventing that, a lock nut that can not be removed without welding or drilling a surface to hit with a punch>the abs ring is supposed to spinNot independently from the hub (which has the wheel and rotor bolted to it), it's not.
>>28691240>waah I can't remove this thing>this is how you remove it but I'm a sissy cuck that can't do that!Bruh literally just sell your fucking tools already, you are clearly too incompetent for them.

>>28664082Hi CCG, I like old cars but I know nothing about working on them, I recently got a volvo 240 sedan that had been beat to absolute shit by an idiot kid, but with no rust, pushing around 300,000 miles (odo dead), the transmission is slipping and I'll be getting the timing belt replaced and an alignment done tomorrowBasically what I want to ask is, I need to keep this fucker on the road at least through winter (I will be rustcoating the bottom), if it's showing no signs of dying right now other than a slippy transmission, what can or should I do to make sure this fucker stays operational without issue for at least 4 months? basically my wife is sick and I'm going to have to be working 100hr weeks on delivery apps because I'm a NEET and jobs available don't pay enough
>>28690381some no slip goo from an auto parts store might keep the trans hanging on. It might just be low on fluid. Check the trans fluid according to the procedures outlined in you manual.
>>28690956wow. that seems so wrong
>>28690968You mean the front end?
>affordable, entry level sports cars are disappearing and are being replaced with EV economy cars>almost every single new high-performance car now is made for the wealthy upper class>race tracks for regular enthusiasts are shutting down left and right and more and more private race tracks are popping up to cater exclusively to the wealthy upper classyou see what's happening, don't you?
>>28691235E30 M3*
>>28691235I wonder how that would change with modern tires, especially pre-2000s supercars. It's easy to say "my Tesla is faster than a Lambo" but how many of those comparisons still hold up when you put modern rubber on the supercar?
>>28691243For supercars specifically that made actual power and were RWD, their times should have decent improvement. For example, the Lamborghini Countach LP5000 Quattrovalvole had 420hp/455hp. Even with the massive 345 width tires it had in the rear, it probably was still traction limited for its launch.For something like the E30 M3, not much. It only had ~210 hp. Same with most other performance cars.
>>28691003>you see what's happening, don't you?Those with means have less and less reason to engage with an increasingly disorderly public.
>>28691003Sports cars have always been expensive newThe problem is that due to inflation, our buying power is so low that less people can buy new, and even 2nd hand options are expensiveSecondly, due to mass immigration there is much more competition for a shrinking pool of QUALITY cars that were designed to be robust and easy to maintain, both mechanically and electronically
are kei-trucks practical vehicles?
>>28691180It will get MOGGED by a small Truck with an actual truck engine.
>>28691282It's also a fraction of the price.
>>28690334I see these kinds of things at work sites a lot. Idk I don't see the benefit over a hilux or something.
>>28691289They're less than half the price.
>>28691290and less than quarter the functionality

>>28690018>>28690020damn, it really isn't a thing here. at least apparently not within automotive.it's a conical copper gasket exactly as >>28690057 says - i posted in ccg about a brake flare i'm trying to unfuck and there's not enough line to reflare it

>>28690050I liked the look of the BA, BF and FG, FG-X falcons, simpler and cleaner lines than the AU before.Being old and crap, I very nearly pulled the trigger on a G6E Turbo when they were new, but it was a little more debt than I wanted and possibly just not stupid enough for my retarded tastes
>>28690900i contacted them already - they ship it from the US and gave me a quote of 47 bucks shipping lol
>>28690016>that lessens the industry standardswhat does that mean?
Stupid questions that don't deserve their own thread
>>28691212> ideally you want it on the outside padI did try putting it there but the bracket got in the way of the clip.>buy real chlorinated brake cleanerI have OG Brakeleen.>take the wheel off and spray an entire can at the offending rotor, making sure specifically to get between the pads and discI sprayed and wiped the inside of the rotor, where the parking brake grabs, as well as the parking brake shoes and surrounding area. I also blew it out with an air hose, several times each.>open the caliper back up and apply some grease to the back of the padsI did that when I put them in, but put more on earlier.
If I buy a battery at AutoZone will they install it for free? I really don't feel like dealing with 13 bolts that use 3 different size sockets
>>28690964Thanks, it didn't squeak last time I tried to push down that wheel but the front shocks are 11 year old factory from my records, it squeaks dry and wet and all that stuff is OEM, and I could check but I don't have anything to lift the car with but the emergency jack. Front brakes are about 3 years old so I expect them to need replacing soon, and I was thinking it was the retard minder studs squeaking but the sound doesn't seem to change with brake pressure.>>28691099Deffo rotational, varies in frequency with vehicle speed. Pitch doesn't vary as much but is somewhat higher when moving fast. Triggering factors seem to be moderate to hard braking, and sharp right turns, but after the sound starts it doesn't respond to brake pressure and is audible in a straight line.I started hearing it a few months ago but because I commute through about 10 miles of active road work including fully torn down temporary gravel sections I convinced myself it was just debris in the tire treads.
Bought a car this summer with 18 inch wheels. I previously drove a car with 16 inch wheels. I have winter for 6 months. I had 2 people tell me so far that the 16 inch tires would be better in the winter. Is this true? Should I use my fairly new winter tires on rims for the 16' on my 18' car?
>>28691277>I did try putting it there but the bracket got in the way of the clip.sounds right for some, i encountered this nonsense doing brakes on my buddy's kia>I have OG Brakeleen.good man>I sprayed and wiped the inside of the rotor, where the parking brake grabs, as well as the parking brake shoes and surrounding area. I also blew it out with an air hose, several times each.hmmm have you got a parking brake that is a drum brake inside the hat of the rear rotor? it is possible that may be the cause of the squeaking, in which case it's normal and should go away eventually. you could try adjusting your parking brake tension down (or up even, since you cleaned out the rotor hat) one click using the adjuster sprocket. >I did that when I put them in, but put more on earlier.sounds like you did it right then. one thing you might want to check is that the caliper pin boots are not retaining air, which can prevent the caliper from fully retracting, and the small amount of contact glazing this would cause will definitely make squeaks.what i'd do next is try just bending the squealers back a little bit with pliars or just break them off just to verify it is not them making noises, then adjust the parking brake for clearance if it's the rear end, and if that doesn't work try a chemical pad treatment like bg stop-squeal.

I WANT NEW CAR
>>28690821just look it up beforehandyou can make little deviations if you have a sense of directionand you can keep a street directory if you really get confused. Normally I don't carry a map and usually not my phone if I it's less than maybe 4 hours away, it works fine.
>>28691224>you can keep a street directory if you really get confusedand why would I do that when I have an infinitely more usable one in my pocket all the time?
>>28691228do it if you want but I don't like carrying a phone around. the government tracks it, you have to keep it charged and people can bug you at any timeyour car also tracks you if it's new.
>>28691234Your car is being tracked even if it's old.https://deflock.me/

>>28691145car was 2 litera short of oil, holy shit. Might be back to one car soon, lol. Just drove the first 50 miles or so and refilled the oil.
Still believe Japanese cars are better than American?https://www.nbcnews.com/world/asia/japan-trump-trade-buying-ford-f-150-pickup-trucks-rcna238832
>>28687154Most Japanese cars sold here are already assembled in the US. It’s 75% of their units sold here in Honda’s case. They won’t be any more affected than Ford or GM.
I was almost going to engage honestly with this thread, but it's just too retarded to even try.
>>28687125Japan isn't a very resource rich country. They have to import a lot to make what they make.
>>28688818Do you seriously think its about the cars you actual subhuman? Or could it be about diplomacy, dumb cunt?
>>28687125They promise to buy so they can keep selling (without tariffs)
