In response to the faggot in the last thread that asked if I was fat because I had trouble with highway speeds on my 250,
No, I am 205 @ 5'7 which is underweight by most alpha male standards. I can hit about 90mph but it isn't fun to cruise at 13k RPM with my wrist cranked and wind blowing the bike around like a piece of toilet paper
What did you/are you going to do this weekend on your car /o/?
Pic related, installed pressure transducer and thermocouple in intake manifold, and thermocouple in exhaust manifold. Hooked up to arduino which sends the data to be displayed in the torque app.
Here's the exhaust manifold.

>>15409598
Maybe you should've cleaned your fucking engine bay.
I'm gonna dump out the 10w40 that's in there because it's still ending up in my exhaust and try either 20w50 or straight 50.
On a related note is it really bad to switch from full synthetic back to conventional oil?
>Obtaining a CDL: How do?
Community College or a dedicating truck driving school. Do your research and don't get sucked into a "school" that's actually just a meat grinder for a shit company. Do not pay over $5000 for a course that lasts several months.
>How can I into avoidings shit companies?
Here are some decent/good companies:

Can we have a thread for funny, weird or interseting car trivia?
>Many Rolls Royce cars have self stabilizing hubcups so that the emblem is always right side up, and umbrellas embedded on the doors.
>>15384490
I learned on the latest Top Gear that Rolls-Royce put heaters on the scabbard that holds the umbrella to dry the umbrella off after use.
>>15384520
this should be standard on all luxury cars
ch
New Mercedes cars let out a loud sound through the sound system when it detects that a crash is inevitable, this causes the stapedius muscle in your ears to tense up and tighten the ear drum so the crash doesn't damage your hearing

I have to confess to you, /o: I don't consider any vehicle not made by Toyota to be a serious car/truck/whatever. Like the rest of the manufacturers seem to be producing some sort of meme cars that constantly break down, can't start in adverse conditions, leak their fluids everywhere, their electrics melt with time, everything about them is shit. Ford, BMW, Fiat, GMC, VW, etc... they all make cars for people who don't take life seriously: ie they don't care if their turd of a car breaks down on their way to work and they miss an important meeting. I mean...

>Samefagging to bump your own thread.
Why don't you go back to your furfag porn?
After looking for used cars for awhile I've narrowed it down to 2.
A 2004 Forester, 130k miles. Private seller. Good mechanic informed me everything is tip top. 4.5k not including tax and title
A 2007 CRV, 105k miles. Haven't had mechanic check. 9k asking at dealership, including tax
Any advice?
>>15423909
Shut up and buy a civic for 3k
>>15423909
One is double the price of the other.
What are you looking for in the vehicle?
>>15423951
I just know CRVs are supposedly more reliable, and thinking maybe I'll end up spending money fixing an 04 that I won't have to worry about with a newer CRV
ie maybe I'm just an idiot
What is that car? I love it!!!

I used to get car sick really badly as a kid. I've thrown up twice before the age of 13 that I can remember right now, and there must be many many more instances of me vomiting.
I'm 20 now, don't really get car sick any more unless I'm using my phone out reading something
Very /o/ related captcha
>>15422929
Is that what triggers getting car sick? reading and looking down? I've heard other people say that before. It's the motion in the peripheral or something?
Why didn't you just stop somewhere along the way?

So I'm saving up for my first bike and I think the 2016 ninja 650r abs is probably the best starter bike to go with.
What's /o/ opinion? Are there better starter bikes out there in the 600-650 club?
Get a Grom.
>>15421725
>11,599 dollars average new
Niggah I can get a new ninja 650r for 6 grand wtf
Do your homework lazy ass nigger
do you text while driving?
If so, kill yourself
Im saying this unironically, kill yourself
before you kill someone else too
>>15420900
I text and drive.
I talk and drive.
I vape and drive.
I eat and drive.
Never anything bad has happened
I never text while driving, ever.
It helps that I have no friends.
Nope. Phone goes into the center console and sits there. If it chirps I ignore it. Calls are different I generally will take those while driving, but I don't like to.
Sup /o/, got a new job and gonna need to commute a fair way, so gonna get a diesel for muh EMMPEEGEEs.
I've been looking at these 3 so far:
1. 2007 Peugeot 407 (2.0/2.7V6) Coupe
+I like the look
+Onboard satnav/parking camera etc
+6spd
+It's a bit different
-It's a peugeot
-It's a peugeot
-2.0 version is a bit breathless
-MPG on 2.7 not brilliant
-FWD
2. 2006 BMW 320Cd (2.0)
+ULTIMATE DERIVING MUSCHEN
+German quality
+Best MPG of the 3
+Will likely hold value better
-It's a BMW so...

Citroën c6 with the big diesel.
>>15418640
This. The ultimate comfymobile.
>>15418640
>>15418645
2expensive, I was looking in the £3000 range, cheapest C6 is £5k
also, how much did you pay for it
>>15417611
Op what the fuck are you talking about. Also in america the only expense you have to pay relating to a car license is the 5 dollars after you pass your permit test.
>>15420002
A growing amount of people in Europe don't even get the license anymore because it is not unusual that you have to pay over 2000 euros to get one.
Combine that with fuck expensive gas prices, insurance, taxes and in some countries hilariously overpriced shitboxes and you get a growing population of license-less people.
>>15420007
That is leftie as shit but true. My roommate (I'm a student) needs license and a car but can't afford it. He enjoys public transport not because it's his only option but cuz it's good in there, but once he wants to work somewhere else, he's fucked.
are miatas really that fun?
Im in the market for a new car right now, looking at muscle cars mostly but I keep hearing how fun these little miatas are
Is it worth the shit I would get from my friends for driving one?
Also, what years are good? I found a 2007 for a pretty good price
>>15416133
you can clearly operate a computer well enough to figure all of this out on your own
stop creating pointless threads
miata is good
dont buy a 2007
