Yaaay, someone restored the names.
I'm still kicking myself about fucking up the oil change, but I seem to have gained a ton of power by completing it and washing the car. Shit goes like crazy now. Time will tell if it's actually changed my fuel economy; I reset the odometer and it hasn't gotten enough data to tell yet.

This was a long exposure of the mr2. Wasn't the best shot we could've got but it's still pretty good

>>15032757
>>15032765
that is nice
>>15032765
I like this one a lot I don't know why
>>15032757
Your photographer is pretty shit desu, poor lighting and framing. I hope he doesn't take his photography seriously.
>>15032782
the composition is a bit awkward but you can't control night time street lighting. i think it makes for a nice atmosphere.

>mfw I see yellow cubes
Been leashed with a black box. Won't get penalties for speeding, but it will effect how much of a discount I get on renewal.
I'm only paying this mind because I'm a city boy who is getting fucked because of other students destroying guardrails trying to impress slags and it was literally the only way I could afford insurance.
Are we going full Dagumi? Is there any point in me coming?
>>15032903
Not everyone will be, there is a point in coming if you like cars and people with cars and SEB
>>15032903
If this is your first year driving then I can say from experience that it will be cheaper to go with non black box insurance come renewal.
>>15032757
What time did you head up there? I love driving it at night, much more of a rush and less traffic
>>15032945
That picture was taken at about 3am, started cruising at midnight and got home for 6. Shame we had a load of rain
>>15032945
We did not go full hektik on black mountain pass since it literally looks like something out of initial d with cliff faces and long drops included. I messed up my braking on the hairpin since I shifted first to second didn't rev high enough to match the gear and the car arched forward while I was turning putting me into a weight transfer slide around the hairpin (road was wet and the hill was steep). I was in front of everyone when it happened and we all shat ourselves
>>15033011
Shifted to first from* second. On the outside of the corner was a nice little cliff face too
>>15032903
Your dank meme is a picture of my old MR2 outside a workshop I used to run. I posted it in 2014, who memed it? It's the same car I posted the fail certificates for in the last thread

It's surprising how narrow the road gets as well

>>15033154
Get one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B007HH6RR4/
I would come to this, but I need to sort myself a new car after mine ended up in bits at the Evo Triangle.
>>15033167
i seccond this. download Chirp too. if a few people bring one and we pick a frequency beforehand we should be good
>>15033154
I don't see how I'm meant to juggle the radio, the wheel, and the gearstick. Americans get away with it because they all drive automatics and only need one hand.
Maybe strap it to my wrist, or set it in my lap like I do with the satnav, but then all you'd hear would be AT THE END OF THE ROAD, TURN LEFT and so forth from Cindy.
>>15033461
most of the time they come with a handheld speaker. just push to talk like an old CB radio. im sure we could also set up a skype group for hands free
>>15033559
>mfw motorcyclist
:( no fun chats for me
>>15033461
Just talk on the straights, m8.
The Mark 3 Ford Escort is the British AE86
>>15034452
mk1 surely
>>15033559
> just push to talk
> Only two hands
> No hand to push button with
I think I'll forego the radio; it'll probably end up in the passenger footwell anyway if I have to brake hard.
Which is really the problem with driving a newer car. I'm still not 100% used to effective brakes, so stomping on them means everything goes whoosh off the passenger seat.
>>15034521
>> Only two hands
>> No hand to push button with
You don't need to hold the wheel with both hands all the time m8.
>>15034477
Mark 1 is super expensive
>>15034521
diy a button onto the steering wheel
>>15034536
One hand on the wheel, one hand for the gearstick.
>>15034570
and you don't have your hand on the gearstick all the time?

>resting your hand on the gearstick
Someone didn't have a qualified driving instructor.
Ordered a wheel and tyre off ebay because one of my front tyres has a puncture. I am the laziest cunt on the planet
>>15036377
i havent moved from my chair in 11 hours.
checkmate
>>15035771
No, I'm saying that you don't have your hand on the gearstick outside of shifting.
>>15036377
I picked up 2 for my e39 on Tuesday because my rears were slick bald from skidz. Now I have 2 different sets of wheels :^)
>>15039381
I just got some dirty ass wolfrace 17 inch fuckers for the Micra. I don't even think they'll fit, arch clearance is alright but they're probably twice as wide as stock width.
I'll post pics when I get around to actually giving them a shot, its hilariously stupid looking.
>>15039499
Ha ha fucking hell
What are micras standard like 13s or something?
>>15039707
I think 14 stock, at least that's what my steels are. I bought a set of nice looking (as in not chavy) 14 alloys for IR but the centre bore hole is too bloody small. I was going to grind them out to fit but I thought fuck it, I'll just sell them
It's probably going to rain on the 19th. Because fuck you.
micrafags BTFO
>>15040288
He's got a point, the thing is a total deathtrap. That's what keeps me interested in it though :3
>>15036377
Seeing as it's ebay, probably not OEM.
Enjoy uneven wear and pull when braking.
>>15039750
>grind them out
Just take them to the local machine shop and sling them 20, they do that shit all the time.
>>15034786
If I'm not cruising along comfortably above 50, then I tend to leave it there. I do not have a lot of power in 5th below 50MPH, so if someone dumps me out the power band I need to fuck about with gears to deal with it.
>>15035771
>Someone didn't have a qualified driving instructor.
> Implying I'm so new a driver I drive like I'm being instructed
>>15041083
I think I will in the long run, they're nice wheels and because they're still 14 inch I won't have to worry about the speedo over reading any.
>>15039968
Warmest summer on record is the rumor m8
Been raining for the last few days though
>>15042751
That depends on tyre as well. If the wheels are wider than stock and you need a different tyre there may be a little difference in overall diameter.
https://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp
Put wheel + tyre specs into that it will tell you pretty much everything, although there are still minor differences between rubber manufacturers.

Cheap FR cars in the UK? I'm not going to resort to something BL am I?
>>15047299
17" is retarded and won't fit. Spacers will make it so the hub doesn't reach the centre bore on the set of 14" wheels he has so he doesn't have to run the monster truck wheels. 2/10 Try a bit harder next time lad
>>15047602
Old clapped-out BMWs on autotrader. Found one for <£200 a while ago, with 'power loss'.
>>15047602
MX-5.
>>15048145
Not that Anon, but what is the price (range) for a good MX-5 NA? I don't know what to expect even if I looked at autotrader or whatever sites you have (I don't know the market).
>>15048176
Depends on how well conditioned you want it and how far you want to travel. Here's a decent looking one for £565 http://www.autotrader.co.uk/used-cars/mazda/mx-5/used-mazda-mx-5-1-6-2dr-towcester-fpa-201605063700592 though I imagine it probably has some unlisted problems.
MX-5s are cheap as fuck, that's why /o/ likes them so much.
>>15040298
>He's got a point, the thing is a total deathtrap.
You didn't finish reading his comment did you
>>15048201
So, a monthly McDonald's job for a nice car, damn...
>>15047693
Yes but if the new 14s are much wider they will require a different tyre and this may change the diameter, which could be a problem for him depending on how picky he is as it will alter the speedo reading which is where we were at in the latest point of the conversation.
No fucking wonder you drive a Micra.
>>15048246

Are BMW's allowed on this meet M8's?

But I wanna come for chav slags
>>15048417
I have never met anyone driving a german car who isn't a prick.
>>15047693
Good call on the spacers man, I'll grab some when I get paid.
I really want to cut it up and jam the 17s on though, I want it to look even worse than it already is.
I'm so desperate for attention!
>>15048246
Nah they can run the same width and tyre height, so it will be same as the stock
Iirc the stock is 165/80/14 can't remember them off the too of me southern head though.
>>15048426
The slags are welcome
Where are you from?
>>15048417

I'm sure you'll be able to upgrade to a Nismo Juke in a couple of years.

>>15040967
>implying I give a fuck about my shitbox car when there are motorcycles to pay for
The Rover 416i hatchback is the British AE86
>>15049386
>worst vehicle
Is this a subjective thing or is it a prize for whoever breaks down on the tick/at the meet?
>>15049421
I'd imagine we'll decide amongst ourselves, I doubt we'll get more than 6 or 7 hundred people turn up.
>>15049433
Would an 05 plate 1.4 Fiesta qualify for worst car?
>>15049453
I think the worst car will be a hive of disease and squalor in addition to being slow. If you want a CD really bad I can save you one, but the photos are good prizes imo so I want to see someone win them.
>>15032221

>>15052475

>>15082239
If your not leaning into corners in a car you're doing it wrong.
>>15082239
No, because that'll throw off my location in relation to the controls. I shift to counteract any lateral Gs, though, but the seats are pretty supportive.
