Hypothetically of course do anyone here actually street race my car is too slow and I have a chronic fear of getting arrested but I have always admired it. Any stories/experiences>picrel is my turbo 8 swapped chaser from txr3
>>28645288OP says it was swapped
>>28641182KindaI have a Lancer GT, and I like to step on it, so it revs a bit. That's gotten me a bit of unwanted attention on the road back from work. First "race" was against a 6th gen mustang, the road I was on has a speed limit of 30 and I was going around 39/40 Hes on my left going about the same speed as me, I say to myself "Man if he wants to get caught by the cops he can go for it" Then i hear him step on it. I just throw reason out of the window and step on it as well. I was infront of him for abit before he overtook me. We stopped at a light I had to turn I waved and thanked him for the fun night.
>>28641182TOKYO XTREME RACER
>>28645323Even worse. The only way to defeat the overpowered Stage 2 bosses is to turbo-swap an MR2, not the land barge L6 turbos.
>>28641182people still do it regularly but it depends on the area. for example browns are always cutting through traffic and crashing their infinitis bmws and hondas her in ny and especially with newer technology you can get cars way faster for way cheaper compared to the 2000s. honestly wish it wasn't so accessible
That would be $60,490, sir.
>>28646741>100hp per cylinder
>>28643876I want this car just for the dash now. Pure kino. FUCK IPADS
>>28644614Look at that pigfat son of a bitch ho-lee
>>28644614The only car that upsets /o/ more than your car, is my car
>>28647157I don't know what you're getting at. Chally is peak modern muscle.
The Kia K5 is the new Nissan Altima.
Oh yeah. These cars are being driven by blacks.
Palisade/Telluride is the new Altima
>>28647963How so? Care to elaborate?
>>28647963Can confirm. Every time I get one in the shop it's always a black single mom with the bumper all scratched up.
>>28647963>The Kia K5 is the new Nissan Altima.If that's true, then people should avoid altimas since they must be absolute crap and cannot last as long as a normal car. But that's only if they really compare to a kia.
Model S redesign when
>>28647926>not-having-an-engineFixed your Model S for you
>>28647985>is now slower while having burned 30k and hundreds of hours wow
>>28648010Worth, now it's actually fun and mostly un-gayed
>>28647974If you're sure of it then what's the issue. I mean I'm sure it is as well. we agree.
>>28648010doest overheat after two accelerations and has more than 200 miles real life Range though
I'm trying to learn how to drive a manual and stalled like 15 times.
>>28643931The clutch separates the engine from the gear system so you can shift properly. It has a high-friction surface so that when you let the clutch out the engine can engage with the drive train and transfer the power to your wheels.When you're letting the clutch out the flywheel on the engine needs to have enough power to overcome the friction on the clutch and drive your car forward (and/or uphill if thats the case).All that's to say you need to rev the engine while you let the clutch out. In first gear you don't need to rev cuz the gear ratio is forgiving. But anything past that you need to rev before you hit the clutch's biting point or you'll stall the engine.Keep practicing. My left leg had to develop a bit of muscle/coordination before i could pull it off smoothly. The car will be fine.
Push in the clutch with your left, right is on the brake pedal. Shift into 1st. Take your right foot off the brake and press gently on the gas pedal. If you have rpm meter, press the gas pedal until you hit a bit above 2k rpm. Start releasing the clutch veeeery slowly. When you feel the car starting to move, don't release the clutch right away, let it build some momentum, then let it go. Rest should be easy
>>28647734Are you retarded? He shouldn't release the brakes until the clutch is at its tipping point. OP needs to learn where the tipping point of the clutch is. That's it. Once you do that, you can effortlessly start a car uphill as you can just rely on the clutch to maintain your position as you push the gas pedal. With that said, if you're learning with some 75hp shitbox, might aswell use the parking brake in hills. Those small shit engines have extremely tight and tender tipping points.
>>28643938I still use my handbrake sometimes when I have to reverse up a slope
>>28643938You'll eventually get so good you won't even need the handbrake. Don't worry OP. It's scary at first but it gets easier and then it gets fun
>is French>transformer is Japanese SamuraiWhat a miscast
>Pontiac transformer>is a dancing nigletNow we are talking
Same Stylist yuck

>>28647724how is a fucking a4 a poorfag filter? I can buy one of these souped-up jettas used for 10k or under. dumb thread
>>28647832sure you can buy one for $10k but can you afford to replace the pos engine every 50k miles
>>28647832They presume a Jetta and an A4 have anything in common to start with

He actually posted cool OC of wrenching, trails, camping, custom night vision light bars, diesel swaps. I just don't understand all the haters. Especially when we're all middle-aged now.

what's the 'sensus on the Peugeot RCZ?
>>28647780>doesn't mater vast majority are diesel anywayI see petrol outnumbering diesel 2:1 on the used market.
>>28647785oops, make that 3:1
my hairdresser owns a 2 litre diesel rcz with a huge ball towbar sticking out in the back it looks goofy
>>28647785Because people are scared of the 1.6 THP.have had mine (1.6 155Hp gen2) for two years now, 80K km, love it.Suspension actually feels firmer than a friend's boxster 981.Just do regular maintenance and basic well care (not reving when cold etc) you should be fine.
Nice looking car with a slow and horrendously unreliable engine.It's a shame really. I can get by the fact it's FWD, but the thp is one of the single worst engines ever made and was an incredibly poor choice for a sports car.
Why is flexing culture so bad in this hobby? Does this mean the guy who driving an older car is actually rich?>Currently, 85 percent of all new car purchases in the United States are financed, up from 75 percent in 2009. In addition, 53 percent of all used car purchases are financed, up from 46 percent in 2009.
>>28647740Ever hear of a down payment? It drastically lowers your monthly payment if you actually do it.
>>28647955No there isn't you fucking imbecile. You can get auto loans with aprs that are lower than HYAS. You're a fucking monkey if you throw away all your cash over a car. Even worse you can play low risk ETFs that will easily net you 7-9% which is far better return than wasting it on a car. I'm sorry you don't understand how car loans work or how money works in general but retards like yourself that are terrified of loans an credit are some of the biggest imbeciles on this planet. No fucking wonder you live in a trailer park and drive rusted cars.
dear god any mention of any sort of money regarding a car brings out the biggest and most financially illiterate retards the internet has to offerwhy are people so drawn to posting this asinine garbage
>>28647959I live in a house and I just bought a 2022 brz so seethe harder debt slave
>>28647931
saw this IRL today
>>28647761One of my friends in college 20 years ago modded his S10 like that to carry boats. I wish I had a picture of it. You could fit a bass boat onto it, and since it was 4x4, he would just back into the water at the boat slip to load/unload. It was cool in a "you know you're a redneck" kind of way.
>>28647761Kinda neat
>>28647761>reused the original tail and marker lights, not just Autozone trailer lights>obvious thought and effort into the wood>chamfered the back piece to follow the shape, and shaped it all to match the original truck bed silhouette especially at the bottomhonestly? i'm mirin'. the hatch looks kinda shitty in comparison, really, but it's kinda cool because it looks like he's got some top-dump exhaust going on there behind the cabin so he doesn't accidentally light his new bed on fire.
>>28647929That's what I thought too.Those details tell that the guy is passionate about his work.

>you buy a used car>discover it has a crack in the windshield but buy it anyway>when you have the car inspected they say you have to change the windshield for the next inspection>time passes, drive with cracked windshield>get insurance for the car>more time passes, drive with cracked windshield>time for new inspection>take the car to glass workshop>"when did the damage happen?">"it was there when I bought it">"then you'll have to pay for all of it yourself, otherwise it's fraud" ... "but we can write the cause as this chip here"What is the right thing to do in this situation? I think they haven't contacted my insurance company yet so I still have time to make the right decision, I think...I walked in there expecting to have to pay for all of it myself and was ready to do that. I don't think I thought of this scenario. I have a booked time but we're going to fill in the papers when I come.
>>28642350That's the neat part, they always raise your rate.
>>28641889>when you have the car inspectedWhen I what?
>>28641889>What is the right thing to do in this situation?You go to the most rural shop you can find that does inspections. Its a high chance jimbob will just take your money and tell you you passed.
>>28641889Glass companies and auto shops are fine with that. They know the insurance company is gonna screw you sideways. Just go with it, because sooner or later, you'll get raped by the insurance company anyway on some other situation.
>>28641922the australian govt commissioned a study into the effectiveness of regular vehicle inspections and they found that there was no real difference between states that had and didn't have yearly inspections. Driver behaviour and skill were the biggest influences (duh).
Used cop car just a money pit or a good investment?
budget for a cam swap and top end rebuild or get a detective's cara georgia policeman once told me that the chargers are very well liked performance wise but they just aren't very durable and the idle hours fuck the cams. on the other hand they are otherwise better taken care of than a crown vic because they spend more time in the shop.
>>28647823>Part Deuxwait where was part 1?anyway yeah they're great. r*dditors like to cry about high idle hours but it's actually not that big a deal (exception to some big city dept's that put truly unholy amounts of idle hours on cars). 5.7 chargers are great. It's likely already had cams done already if they were an issue, and if they weren't an issue then they're unlikely to go bad. The who idle hours eating cams is a bit misinformed, Chrysler had a batch batch of lighters that affected virtually all cars & trucks with 5.7 engines (something like 2.5-5% of all engines were affected in total).

Every single vehicle posted so far is made for browns.

>>28647439You first
>>28647439I just saw the sides and ass-end of a new Tacoma, sitting on 33's. Very decent, classical lines. I was getting strong Cherokee Chief/J-10 vibes off the styling. Don't know if the motors are any good or what their rep is.
