Trying to adjust my top camber plate... I can't get any of the bolts to loosen using an Allen key. Am I doing this right? I have the car jacked up and wheel off, bolt is just soo tight.. Am I just being a pussy?

What does /o/ think of fender mirrors? I personally love them
I personally think they look kind of stupid, and they're really dysfunctional. You can't see shit in them, they defeat the purpose of even having fucking mirrors.
Mirrors on the A-pillar look better and work better. Fuck this stupid "JDM" shit, the only reason they're on the hood is because chinkland has tiny streets and normal mirrors would get broken off.

Apparently they allow for the same if not more visibility then normal side mirrors and you don't have to turn your head to look at them
lol mirrors

He's credited in the credits of the movie "Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie" has having created all 5 Turbo Zords.
Just an FYI as to what each one started as.
Wind Chaser started life as a second generation Honda CRX
Mountain Blaster starter life as a late 80's/early 90s Ford F250
Red Lightning started life as a Pontiac Fiero GT
Dune Star started life as a 1995 Suzuki Samurai
Desert Thunder started life as a Chevrolet Astro minivan.

Nope. IIRC The Beatles rolled with stock vehicles.
The Monkees, on the other hand, had this phaeton made from a 1967 GTO. Made by Dean Jeffries who died in 2013
