Sounds pretty rough. I saw a dude being tailgated by some retard in a black commodore last night. Dude was doing mini-swerves behind the guy as they were stopping at a red light, as if he was going to try gun it past him, while being blocked by other traffic sitting at the lights.
He then started revving up as loud as his trashy v6 shitbox can behind the dude, getting close, flashing his highbeams etc. Some people just shouldn't drive.
>>13806993
Why didn't you just gun it past and brake check, everything is faster than a fucking SUV
>>13807041
im not about that life m8 i was just trying to get away from the faggot, besides I wouldn't have put it past this guy to just ram into me if i brake checked him

Still full from a feast on Thursday. And tired from shopping all day Friday for those black Friday deals. We'll venture out into the cold bleak yard that is always snow and ice covered and see if we can score some parts for our cars!
So yes, November 28th, meet in the lot at 9:00 and we'll spend the rest of the day scrounging through cars and picking what's worth picking, and making fun of what is worth making fun of.
Then its off to that little dive bar for the best damn burgers in Hazelton.

Great family, although you feel as if she doesn't quite live up to the famous name. Over the years she has obtained a few battlescars, but she smiles every day and never really lets you down. Maybe a tiny bit chubby, but nobody can deny that she is a very comfortable girl to be with
Still, you never really feel safe when you're outside of a kebabshop, seeing how all of the young guys are eyeing her
Alright boys, whip em out, show us what you got.
Thinking of doing this because I'm a massive faggot who owns dozens of sets of wheels and no shift knobs.

Whats a good place to look for one of these?
I need a cheapish commuter car that i can build a small sleeping platform inside of and these Civic Wagons fit the bill.
CL is kinda shit and all the forums ive looked at have been even worse.
Would prefer an AWD one but FWD works too.
Dont worry im not going to mod it, just keep it stock for the most part.
Pic related, fuck those wheels though
Places where they don't salt roads.
>>13803361
dang dis uggo af
юpи looking down on ya
>>13803396
pretty much this. What killed so many of those off was rust.
You can convert any Civic to AWD, but you need the rear trailing arms from one of those EF RTAWD Wagons. Everything else can be grabbed from a Honda CR-V, which was the Civic wagon's direct replacement.
are there any DOHC V8 platforms that are as swap-friendly as an LS motor? and by that i mean they aren't like 50k (so pic not related).
i remember someone saying some Toyota 1UZ or something was decent but didn't make a lot of power for what money you put into it.
BMW M60
Nissan VH and VK
Toyota UZ and UR
Modular Fords
maybe a volvo v8
maybe an audi
there are DOHC heads for LS engines aswell
>>13803043
oh the cadillac northstar, but only late model ones are reliable, and arent as cheap
>>13803043
out of those which is the best bang for buck? the ls with a dohc head?

Is there an S chassis that I could get relatively cheaply as a DD?
Are they worth DDing at this point, or are they all fucked unless it's an automatic?
branch fell and hit my s14.
ruined the front fenders and destroyed the rear glass.
It also put a dent in the metal body part where red arrow is.
Car is pretty much killed isn't it?
It was my DD. So I should just sell it off to someone that wants to race it or part if out. Because having a body shop repair that part is going to cost more than the car is worth, right?
>>13802703
They are not worth it to get as DDs anymore.
Hey, /o/. Looking for tire advice/recs from those of you who live in snowy winter areas. Should I be looking specifically for winter tires considering I will have to be driving in the snow consistently to and from work? Are studded tires worth investing in or just some eye-candy shit?
>>13802666
Studded tires are for ice, if you don't encounter ice very often it's not worth it. You need winter tires regardless of whether or not it snows. If it gets cold, you need them.
MightyBenz is the only one who is able to spell the name of the good studded nokian winter tires. Continental ContiWinterContact TS850 won the test in Europe for normal winter tires.
Give me this info and I'll give you some good recommendations
>budget
How much are you willing to pay
>where you live
Where in the world, and if I could get a specific region that'd be great
>size of tires
Euro-sizes (205/60/16) and such
>what type of terrain
Snow ontop of hardpacked snow, loads of ice, mostly slush with tarmac beneath and so on
Studded tires perform their best in the rougher conditions on snow and ice....

Is push-button start a fad, or is turn-key ignition a thing of the past permanently?
>>13801663
What are the true advantages of a button over a key, when a wireless fob is still required? Seems like a transition of media, and that's about it.
Personally, I enjoy the smooth sound of the key displacing all the cylinder teeth when it slides in, but preferences hardly make changes.
What happens, with these new wireless key push-button-start vehicles, if you drive off without the key after it's started?
Never understood the point. Give me a mechanical key any day.
