Tendies is right

tfw you can't even buy a 335 wagon here

One of my headlights has some minor water in it

Is there any way to get it dry and make it so it stops or do ii need to suck it up and replace the whole headlight

I googled it but I didn't get much help

If it is reasonably easy to remove and put back in, you could take it out, and leave it in some rice overnight like a cell phone that was a dropped in water.

This guy has a pretty in-depth method to find where the seal is busted, dry it out, and fix it

@Deleted User to fix your headlight remove it and dunk the lense in a tub or bucket of water and look for the leak. you can reseal it 9/10..

wtf

Dear god why

who

Who would do that

A person who hates cars

is that a mini cooper?

what the fuck

who would do that

had to be an accedent

but how is anyone THAT retarded

I didn't want to see it anymore

it looks like fucking peanut butter on the left and silly putty on the right

i doubt you can even clean that out to rebuild that engine im pretty sure its stright up fucked

i mean peanut butter on the right sily putty on the left

cars are gay

ride a bike nigga

Gas the bikes

Race cars now

>tfw no 1L air cooled v twin cruiser

just got a job interview about to be breaking real bread nibbas

S2000 soon

lol bikes

why dont you just wear a huge sign that says "HEY LOOK AT ME LOOK HOW LOUD I CAN BE"

do bikes need to be that loud? no.

why are they that loud? for attention

i fucking hate harleys and shit

I think he was talking about sport bikes

Harleys are for dumbass boomers

aww did a baiku cut you off

Loud Bikes Save Lives

Hope i manage to afford a big Bike one day. Mines gonna be loud af

Cant miss me, wont hit me

Had 2 mates have serious bike accidents on what i would term 'Race Bikes' One Survived. One did not.

I like to go fast, but I love being alive. So I have a major dilemma

Most people that own bikes don't act like retards on them

The reason so many bikers die is because the drivers around then are ignorant assholes.

So riding a bike is basically saying you trust the average asian women not to run you over at a redlight

yeah riding a bike is suicidal

https://youtu.be/8PEJFQAkl0k

that must be an old vid. i remember sam asking for motorcycle advice on twitter this year or last year

You can acknowledge the insanity of motorcycles and still want one

yes like me. i consider myself a very conservative cyclist and mountain biker

but i just cant satisfy the sensation of speed anymore

I don't like riding street bikes. But dirt bikes are great

After riding in a helicopter no car will ever really fill that speed gap.

riding in or flying it yourself? i think its a big distinction

Sam has changed as he has gotten older

after /pol/ he really became unhinged

doesnt everyone change?

Riding in

My first car, which was written off

Current car

Pretty stock, only have added a cold air intake

nice

I just inhereted a 2009 ford focus

I just got back from driving it

I'm prob gonna sell it and keep my civic

I hate it

How do you goys feel about engine swaps?

I am a fan of complete monstrosities with platforms hosting engines 2-5 times larger than they were created with

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_mCTmoKXJ8

Yep, fuck that little rotary cuck engine

needs more litres

yeah not to mention that the LS actually works

Loud pipes save lives

should I get a 1st or 2nd gen miata?

1st

@Zero Cool Always first

Never 3rd

2nd is okay but 1st gen is the best

kk

I'm looking at a few in my area

the going rate for 1st gen miatas with >175k miles is about $3500

should I aim for a lower milage?

Even the newest 1st gens are 20 years old now, so actual lower mileage ones are going to be pretty rare, and probably sat for a while. With a car like this, I think the thing you most want to avoid is ones which have been abused, since 5k miles on the track are going to put a lot more wear on it than 5k on the highway.

^

so basically try to look for one that's as stock as possible?

most of the ones in my area have aftermarket wheels and are lowered

which I see as a warning sign

You need to look up a Miata forum, most model specific forums have buyers guides, which specify what to look for

like subframe cracks on BMWs

/o/ has a really good miata general

guys i made a mockup of how i want to wrap my van but i cant pick

where's the van all I see are two wheels

I prefer the second

yeah i just see windows, tires, and lights, no chassis

I'm kind of leaning towards the first, because the car is designed a bit curvy

and that camouflage was made for Western Europe

You ever seen a turbo'd Miata?

yeah

I only knew it was turbo'd because of the blow off valve noise

Should I get a supra?

they're pretty good cars alex

go for it

I'd say 4th gens are overpriced

A Lexus SC300/Toyota Soarer would be a much cheaper project car, unless you really love the look of the supra

I don't know too much about lexus

A Lexus SC300 is a re-badged Toyota Soarer. It came with the non-turbo 3L I6 2JZ-GE supra engine, or alternatively a 4.0 L V8 1UZ-FE in SC400 form. I'm not sure about differences in the block, head, etc. And it probably has smaller brakes, softer suspension, but some of the supra stock units, or upgrades will swap over.

hmmm I'm gonna have to give this the look in

Just a suggestion, because I know a 4th gen supra in decent condition is pretty expensive

pretty cool ^^^

I want a fox body but their so damn expensive

So I might go find this Lexus or just go with the supra

Well you need to evaluate whether you actually want (or are able) to do significant work on the car, and the total amount you want to spend. The supra will be decently quick, and reliable stock, if you can find one. It is will also be pretty expensive for a 20+ year old Toyota.
The Lexus SC400 with the V8 will be similar, but doesn't have the Supra cache or look to attract fanboys or people who want to race(good and bad), and everything will be softer/more luxury
The SC300 will be cheaper still, and with less performance, but has the 2JZ block similar to the Supra. This would be the maximum amount of work/least money option

I don't know what that means

Looks like Santa fired the deer

santa wanted to drift this christmas

snow drifting is fun

watch out for curbs, bollards, holes

I once drifted a Ford Transit in the snow without traction control

whee

Best shit ever

And it was a rental too

traction control is a buzz kill

Is the Dodge Magnum a cool car?

It is generally considered ugly

I kinda like it though

The R/T v8 with awd is what I would choose probably

For me it looks like a 2006 charger hatchback

same platform as the charger, the 300, and the older mercedes e-class

same engines, probably a lot of parts shared

a big car with a NA V6 is never going to be cool

I wonder if anyone has done a 300C front clip onto a Magnum in North America

Is this it?

I couldn't say, the back is cut off

it does seem to be sloping downwards though

has anyone seen the dodge demon ad?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vD6A6NxySQ

pretty sick

This car could have been built 20 years ago

900hp, trans brake, drag radials on the back, skinnies on the front is not a new combination

YO @Deleted User

i found a 350z for 6k near me

pretty sick

https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/l-Used-2006-Nissan-350Z-c5749#listing=183002324 rate

i dunno much about 350z but i used to love the looks as a kid. i recently saw on in a driveway and it gave that old feeling

nice deal

just fucking buy it

dont they normally go for 20k?

that one says it would normally go for like 9,000

6k is cheap

definitely get an inspection, including compression test/leakdown

Parts like the brake calipers are not cheap

^

@mariofalz what @Leaf me alone said

I have a G35, and the gold brembo calipers from the dealership were $1700 for the pair

a rebuild kit was only $60 or something though

but they look really good

The (((dealership))).

Indeed, you can get the same part but black and generic for much less

🚗

Anyone get me some info on this one?

/o/ and /pol/ go drifting part deuce

I'm holding brake pads

surprisingly heavy

4 brake pads, for 2 caliper rear brakes, vacuum sealed together

>not ceramic

they actually are

Ohh h bb

good shit here

Gen 1 miata ain't that bad

But we drive on the wrong side they say.

Driving a car made for one region in the other is the real "wrong side"

Kek yeah you right

That is your car talking to you

It is usually better to fix things before they actually break, and take out other things with their flailing

My Daddy leased a new car

>leeeeeeeeease

Fucking greenie fucks drive a man's car ffs

what about tesla cars <:hmpepe:285080453814419456>

mad torque, but heavy and shitty range

and some quality issues

^

I've got behind the wheel of one the torque is like a motorcycle

But like leaf said heavy shitty range and a good some of quality issues

im buying a tesla with my magacoins

what do you think

considering my current car is literally gassing the planet

god bless VW

Which model?

@Alex Jones If that map's true then the UK is really screwed

@Maximus How so?

This will probably not go anywhere or get any attention but I just need to say it. Why is it whenever I look around articles for local racing they always focus on 3 classes out of the 5 that tracks have on a normal night. Modifieds. Sporstman. Prostocks. Always in that order without fail and in a desending nature that puts most if not all emphasis on the mods. I understood that the big names bring bigger crowds no matter the situation. If it is football, basketball,baseball or anything. But when there is a video of what happens in the pits it almost certainly only going to show those big names with the big pretty haulers and crews in fancy pit shirts working on their cars. But what really happens on that next row over? What's going on with that street stock that shows up early every week if it's raining or not in hopes they don't have a rainout. Or the four cylinder driver/owner that worked an extra 10 hours of overtime last week to fix his car to make it here this week. These are the guys who in my opinion make the sport what it is. They build their cars from the ground up. Not buy them from big chassis manufacturers. Or have a professional come in once every other week to change their setup. It feels like those classes are the unwanted bad habit at some tracks. When the big names are done for the night that big crowd goes home. Even with the stands almost empty and a car with a body that's been used and abused for the passed 3 seasons still goes out on the track. Not for that big payout. Because those don't exist for these guys. Not for the fame of being a racecar driver. Because nobody knows their name outside of their division. But because they just want to race. This is a shout out to all of the little guys that tow their cars with a dolly. Or pay the crew with a burger for helping that night. Because I believe you don't get enough applause for everything you do. You're all the reason this sport still thrives the way it does.

Some Kikebook post, but he's right

@Alex Jones people are drawn to the spectacles, occasionally an underdog gets some recognition, but usually thousands of hours of work go into the cars that become popular. for every car, or shop that becomes popular, there are 10 that lost in the same category to it.

I agree it's just fucking do they have to be... so cavalier? About it

The outliers always get the vast majority of attention. The same level of performance in a sexier body will get exponentially more attention and in some cases, wads of cash

My problems is the fucking normies, who can't tell the difference from a LS and Windsor

Those exist in every discipline. People wonder why they can't play any games properly on their PC which only has onboard graphics. They probably wonder why they can't lose weight fucking around on a treadmill and doing curls

so im setting up security questions and answers https://puu.sh/xsuza/45b984e315.png

willys jeep?

What about it?

That is a Jeep that was literally made during WW2

@!papa I get the feeling you are inexperienced with both RWD platforms, and manual transmissions

you got it @Leaf me alone

So given that, the most beneficial vehicle for you would be (relatively) low performance, cheap, and very neutral in handling

i cant really afford anything past 8000 dollars so yeah @Leaf me alone

@!papa have you looked into the Nissan 180sx?

not really tbh

not bad pricing tho

It has garnered a lot of fame among drifters, but it had a pretty humble start as a weakly powered platform which was controllable at the limit of traction

it doesnt seem bad

hopefully they got one in wisconsin or minnesota

maybe illinois

I'm not trying to offend you, but if you aren't accustomed to fulll throttle meaning you car is sideways, then you won't benefit from more hp

i cant be offended im not that smart in this area bro

That is good

kek

If you have been driving a yaris, then a RWD turbo manual car will be a significant change, even if it has ~200 hp

ive driven RWD just not a manual RWD

hmm

have you driven auto RWD in the winter, or offroad?

in that RWD i did like 110 for a good while thougj

Have you ever done a burnout, or a doughnut?

no
