cars

[indigo coral]

afaik its never knocked

people on lexus forums and stuff have asked and people say it doesn't make any real diff in an RX

[stoic ledge]

201hp from a 3.0 V6... Yeah not really high performance

[indigo coral]

220*

but yeah

[stoic ledge]

[indigo coral]

hey when youve only got 220 hp you gotta get every additional one you can get 😂

[stoic ledge]

US Spec has more HP then

[indigo coral]

i think so

[stoic ledge]

only

👀

[indigo coral]

well power aint bad, trans is a bitch tho, that's what makes it slow 😂

220 @ 5,800 rpm Horsepower
222 @ 4,400 rpm Torque

[stoic ledge]

222 is lbft ?

[indigo coral]

yeah

300nm

[stoic ledge]

not using SI measurements

Better xD

[vital glen]

listen up here mr

horsepower isn't si

[indigo coral]

duckpower

[stoic ledge]

EU spec has 283Nm

kW ftw

[vital glen]

but it sounds a lot more aggressive than kilowatt

[stoic ledge]

I have 63 kW

[vital glen]

My cars makes 63kW 🤓

[indigo coral]

164kw

300nm

better?

[vital glen]

Listen up here

How do you measure boost?

[stoic ledge]

61 kW / 110 Nm on LPG
63 kW / 115 Nm on gas

And we use BAR

[vital glen]

that isn't si

the pascal is

[indigo coral]

yeah but you probably get 0-100 quicker

than my dog-slow 4spd auto

xD

[vital glen]

1bar = 100000pa

[stoic ledge]

1 pascal = 1*10^-5 bar, psi is some odd number

En doubt, my care is quite slow

[indigo coral]

Mine's slow unless you really stomp on it in power mode

lol

[vital glen]

1*10^-5

I can not type today

[stoic ledge]

Yeah I forget the ^

[vital glen]

that makes big difference

[stoic ledge]

Race fuel #110RON

[vital glen]

Want me to ship over 125ron 100% leaded?

[stoic ledge]

Nah won't really make a difference

xD

[vital glen]

tune your little europoor i4 and get all the power

[indigo coral]

People have put a turbo on the 1MZ FE in the Solara and stuff

If my trans wasn't so weak I'd do it lmao

[vital glen]

Think about adding a turbo to your engine though

it would prob blow up first

[stoic ledge]

You know it's good when it has Ecotec written on it

[indigo coral]

From what I understand the 1mz-fe isn't bad at all, its pretty robust aside from oil sludging which isn't a problem with synthetic oil

[vital glen]

@stoic ledge is it na?

[stoic ledge]

Yes

A12XER 💪

[indigo coral]

I saw someone around here that replaced their Ecoboost badge with EcoBeast

it was pretty funny

[stoic ledge]

LOL

[vital glen]

more like

get a v8

[indigo coral]

On the V6 3.5L TwinTurbo so its got SOME grunt but not 'beast'

[vital glen]

in what the f150?

[indigo coral]

Explorer Sport

We've got a 2014, this was a 2017

[vital glen]

the explorer does not have 4wd it has awd

or does it

[indigo coral]

awd afaik

ours is AWD

[stoic ledge]

I think awd

4wd seems unlikely

[indigo coral]

unless they changed it after MY14, then its AWD

[vital glen]

100% awd

[stoic ledge]

more than 2wd
:boi:

[vital glen]

365 bhp (272 kW) at 5500 rpm 350 lb⋅ft (475 N⋅m) at 3500 rpm

[indigo coral]

Yeah, pretty good performance

reliability could be improved though

[vital glen]

that sucks though

[indigo coral]

looks at 9000$ timing chian failure

[vital glen]

eevrything is so high up

[indigo coral]

in our explorer lol

It's not actually too bad down low- turbo lag isn't a major problem

the timing chain was covered under warranty, thankfully

[stoic ledge]

3500rpm for torque is high for a turbo engine

[indigo coral]

broke the tensioners, phasers, and a bunch of other parts I don't remember

[vital glen]

I have seen a lot higher

[indigo coral]

Dealer had the car for over a month repairing everything

[vital glen]

for most turbo production vehicles

[indigo coral]

It's plenty powerful

The Explorer was what i learned to drive in, which is funny because now I drive a slow Lexus

[stoic ledge]

Learning to drive in an auto
:boi:

[indigo coral]

My dad's Taurus hopeuflly wont have the same failure, but its covered under warranty until 2023 so better now then after then

Look only car we have thats a stick is a '66 bronco

[vital glen]

I learned stick in a drag car

so who cares

[stoic ledge]

I learned stick... In a tractor

Then a semi truck

Then a car

Cat nice

[indigo coral]

My girlfriend has a car w/ stick so maybe I'll learn to drive in that

drive stick, that is

[stoic ledge]

[indigo coral]

lmao it doesn't seem that hard

famous last words

[vital glen]

time of motherfucker who stalls going 65 on the interstate

[stoic ledge]

That's what she said

[indigo coral]

LOL

[stoic ledge]

Tractor with 24+24 gears is nice to learn stick xD

[indigo coral]

O.O

That's a lot of gears

[stoic ledge]

Yes

[indigo coral]

imo the new 10spd autos from ford and GM are overkill

seems like diminishing returns after 7

[vital glen]

not really

13 is overkill

[stoic ledge]

5 speed manual

[indigo coral]

4spd auto :(((

[vital glen]

I really like 3 speed autos

[indigo coral]

how could you do that to yourself

[stoic ledge]

Well i've got a 0-60mph/0-100kph vid of my car, I guarantee you yours is faster

[vital glen]

wdym?

[stoic ledge]

Three on the tree

[indigo coral]

how quick, mk?

[stoic ledge]

The time I recorded it 16s (17 shown in video) but that was a bad start, 14s normally

[indigo coral]

is that 'normal' or gunning it?

[vital glen]

that's like my h1 0-60

[stoic ledge]

Max rpm

[indigo coral]

oh

[stoic ledge]

https://youtu.be/Jo-CT-DvO6M

[indigo coral]

If I give it the beans I can pull 8 seconds

Maybe 8.5 I've never timed it exactly

[stoic ledge]

Although just shifting at 4000rpm gets the same results so xD

[vital glen]

I love how cheap it sounds

[stoic ledge]

TIL normal driving == fast driving

[indigo coral]

nice choice of music tho

i like that song

[stoic ledge]

That's what was on the radio at the time xD

Also notice the lack of engine temperature gauge

GM decides it wasn't necessary anymore

[indigo coral]

Wow

My dad was mad when he realized mine doesn't have an oil pressure gauge

[stoic ledge]

There is one in the Corsa C
There is one in the Corsa E

But Corsa D? Nope

[indigo coral]

I have gas, speed, rpm and temp

[stoic ledge]

Oil pressure is quite rare here

Usually it's those four ^^

They did bother including a digital rev counter (you can see it in the screen if you look closely)

Normally it shows the odometer/trip meter, but that's a hidden menu

Hidden menu also includes battery voltage, engine temp, digital Speedometer etc

[indigo coral]

oh nice

I don't have battery voltage

amazingly I haven't killed my battery yet

[stoic ledge]

Well it's "hidden" so you can't check it easy, but it's there xD

I replaced mine a year ago, wasn't dead yet but not close, and with winter coming... Didn't want to risk it

[indigo coral]

Guy we bought it from told me he killed it like every other week

leaving doors open etc

[stoic ledge]

🤦

[indigo coral]

like cracked open just a bit

[stoic ledge]

It's not that difficult closing a door properly

[indigo coral]

well this car has a bit of a tendency to look closed from the outside but only be half latched

ive gotten used to it but he apparently never did

[stoic ledge]

Throw it close hard enough xD

[indigo coral]

yeah thats an easy solution

just sort of slam it

not hard enough to break things but just kinda push it

[stoic ledge]

Yeah that's what I have always done

And that's how everybody I know does it

[shadow osprey]

I drive a guy home from work sometimes and I don’t think he has ever closed the door to my dad’s Audi all the way one single time on the first try

[indigo coral]

Adding trans fluid rn

[indigo coral]

Well it still is making a funny noise but it certainly feels better

[willow oar]

Like what kind of noise?

[indigo coral]

Gurgling/hissing while in gear. Prior to adding fluid it shifted really slow and got hot. Haven't had a long trip to test it getting hot but it certainly seems to shift quicker. Also the noise seems quieter and less gurgle, more hiss. Not sure exactly how full, I'll look again tomorrow when it's all drained out of the dipstick hole. (thats where you pour it in my car)

Checked fluid prior to adding it, was quite low but still reddish. Not worn out.

[willow oar]

Probably would be a good idea to make sure that there nothing like metal shavings or tiny flakes

[indigo coral]

Nope, nothing like that. Fluid came out mostly red and clean.

As in it didn't look brand new, but definitely not worn out and ruined

[willow oar]

Huh

🤔

[indigo coral]

I'll check the fluid level again tomorrow once its all run down the dipstick tube.

Only added about a half quart, so not sure where exactly it puts it.

[willow oar]

Just add more

[indigo coral]

Lol

Might end up doing so if it's still kinda low.

Noise started after flooring it onto highway, (not out of fun, circumstances required it). Only happens when I'm accellerating in gear, I've revved it in park/neutral and it stays quiet. (engine noise is normal ofc.)

[willow oar]

At least you dont have a loud vibrating noise coming from your front wheels

[indigo coral]

It doesn't sound metallic or grinding or anything

[civic spoke]

I got a full day of driving today.

[indigo coral]

fun

[civic spoke]

And driving test tomorrow.

[willow oar]

I wish I had a motorcycle

[indigo coral]

[civic spoke]

I want to fill up my license card with all the things.

Bike, Car, Truck, Bus, etc

[shadow osprey]

@indigo coral looking for metal shavings doesn't mean watch it as it pours out, it means dump a little out and sift around for it lol. Also fixing leaks generally helps 😉

me too^^

[indigo coral]

We arent flushing it, just adding some extra

it was veery low

[shadow osprey]

You should be flushing it

or at least dropping the old shit

[indigo coral]

the fluid is in good condition

still red

[shadow osprey]

see above

[indigo coral]

why would it have metal shavings in it if it was not worn out and causing excess wear?

also I can't afford to have someone flush it

[shadow osprey]

Imagine running the engine on low oil. The oil won't go bad much faster, but that doesn't mean you aren't doing damage to the engine

[indigo coral]

It wasn't actually below the Low line

just lower than it probably should be

[shadow osprey]

If something isn't properly lubricated, it can certainly cause premature wear. Especially since converters use a ton of fluid

Ok so it wasn't very low then lol

[indigo coral]

not like extremely low

it seemed to have the most probllems on hills

[queen wagon]

lately ive been doing some of my own repairs to my girls car like some body work and replacing some cracked housings for the lights and such

[shadow osprey]

Either way, you should have dropped the old fluid

[indigo coral]

fair, in the relatively new future I'll probably get it flushed and fully replaced

How much would that cost? 200$?

I know you cant really flush it at home, only pour out what you can and replace that

[queen wagon]

what fluid are you talking about?

[indigo coral]

ATF

[shadow osprey]

some say a flush can make an old trans worse ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[indigo coral]

yeah

but thats primarily when its old shitty brown/black fluid

[queen wagon]

check to make sure you transmition is good for doing flushes cuz if you do it and you have worn out parts it could actually make it worse due to getting rid of the grit holding those parts together

also due to a true flush is done with a pressurized system not like extreme pressures but some pressure is applied to it all and some transmitions dont like that added pressure

[indigo coral]

For now we're just topping it off and seeing if that fixes things

since it technically was in spec but seemed to have problems on hills

[shadow osprey]

So it was slow shifting and what else?

[indigo coral]

oise

noise*

gurgling/hissing

when accellerating

[shadow osprey]

interesting lmao

[indigo coral]

atm its better, and the shifting is definitely quicker, after adding half a quart

[shadow osprey]

Did you have the pan off at all?

[indigo coral]

no, not yet.

[shadow osprey]

if/when you do, replace the filter

[indigo coral]

yeah

i will

[shadow osprey]

Could be dirty/clogged

[indigo coral]

first attempt is just adding some to the proper level and see if that resolves things

easy things first lol

[queen wagon]

i agree

[shadow osprey]

Would create pick up problems that could give issues that make it feel like it's low on fluid

[indigo coral]

the T-IV bottle was like 4$ at autozone

dipstick said it was pretty low, would clogged filter cause that?

[shadow osprey]

No, the dipstick goes straight into the pan

[indigo coral]

ok - I honestly am asking, not trying to be argumentative lol

This is all new things for me, learning experiences 😂

[shadow osprey]

Same is true for engine oil

no problem lol

Everyone starts somewhere

[indigo coral]

ye mine burns just a bit of oil, 20 y/o piston rings will do that to you

[shadow osprey]

I don't know too much about transmissions myself

[indigo coral]

its not enough to be a problem, just top off here and there

[shadow osprey]

Yeah my truck either burns or leaks, probably both. 21 years old and 238k miles, most spent towing

[queen wagon]

i wana say a transmition filter needs to ( or should be) replaced every 15-60k miles depending on your particular setup

[shadow osprey]

The bottom is so caked in power steering fluid and oil vapors from the crank vent that I can't see shit

[indigo coral]

Mine has the tiniest leak - never touches the ground or anything, only noticed it while I was crawling around underneath

[shadow osprey]

trans fluid/filter is generally a good idea to do every 30k, just like your diff(s)

[indigo coral]

literally there was like one drop that had ran down from somewhere, underneath the car is always completely clear

(save for water in the summer from AC)

[shadow osprey]

At that point it's probably just water running through general engine bay grease

[indigo coral]

yeah, its not a leaky car.

I've tossed around the idea of taking off the valve cover to check for sludging, not sure if that'd mess things up though.

I don't want to screw anything up real bad lol

[queen wagon]

if you do that make sure you know the proper torc settings for those bolts some engines will kick on their lights for no good reason if a bolt is tightened wrong

[indigo coral]

I presume thats something I can find on google?

[queen wagon]

yep

[indigo coral]

The manual for that car is virtually useless haha

Ok

[shadow osprey]

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

[queen wagon]

or i should say ive always been able to

i just cant wait to get moved into a place thats bigger i wana buy a garage lift so i can stop using my dang pump jacks lol

[shadow osprey]

If you're worried about sludge, change your oil more frequently and use a good brand of synthetic

[indigo coral]

From what I understand, using synthetics prevents sludging, and also there's additives you can add in to clear it up?

[shadow osprey]

You don't use synthetic right now?

[indigo coral]

I do

[shadow osprey]

Or at least synthetic blend?

[queen wagon]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008I3E9IK/?coliid=I1EQLLQHTO1HGI&colid=202DR2IQ7E3JI&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it thats actually the one we will be using

although thats for a cvt

[indigo coral]

I always use synthetics, there's no real benefit to using natural oil

[shadow osprey]

price, when you need 13 quarts lol

[indigo coral]

Synthetics don't seem much more expensive

[queen wagon]

yep it aint cheap but its a nice high quality product

[indigo coral]

At least not irrationally more expensive

[shadow osprey]

Not for gas engines

[indigo coral]

True

My dad just bought 20 quarts of 15W-30 tonight for his diesel truck

[shadow osprey]

People should never run conventional on gas engines, literally no excuse to pay less than $10 more for full synthetic

[indigo coral]

('97 F250 w/ banks kit)

[shadow osprey]

15 30 DansGame

[queen wagon]

i do a little of everything to be honest, fix furniture, work on vehicals, build pc's, cook nice meals, do some yard work, lay foundations for decks and such you name it ive done a little of it all

[shadow osprey]

Hope you don't tow much

[queen wagon]

so im not perfect at anything but im good at a lot

[indigo coral]

Me or my dad? lol

I'd NEVER tow with my RX

[shadow osprey]

Your dad

Sherlock

[indigo coral]

lol

He doesn't tow heavy stuff all that often, typically just our boat or like trailer with wood on it or something

or quads

Recently he made a few gravel runs, but that's not super common

[queen wagon]

heck my dads 1995 ford ranger managed to pull a stuck big rig out of a ditch once its all in how ya drive your vehical and knowing its limits

[shadow osprey]

Diesels like hotter oils, especially since they're all turboed

It's just about putting power to the ground. That's why my truck will never pull anything out of a ditch

#2wdlife

[indigo coral]

I dunno - Only car I really know about is mine, since that's the one I've been troubleshooting and learning about.

My dad has 4wd but he has to get out and turn in hubs

not an easy switch inside

[shadow osprey]

Welcome to before 2003

[queen wagon]

lol

[indigo coral]

lol

[shadow osprey]

Most people prefer manual locking hubs anyways

[indigo coral]

My mom's old truck we sold had the switch inside, was a 97 Dodge Ram 1500

couldn't tow for shit though

[shadow osprey]

My dad's old 02 F150 gave some problems with the electronic 4wd

[indigo coral]

Nice truck, but wow no towing ability

[shadow osprey]

Yeah... older half tons

[indigo coral]

My mom bought it brand new as her 2nd car, served her really well up to 200k miles, then we sold it and got my RX for my daily

[shadow osprey]

I've had two. Never hooked anything to them. Biggest I would have gona is our 18ft center console boat. It's like 2000-2500 lbs, and that's it

[indigo coral]

since I do a lot of city driving and my college campus has tiny parking spots

[queen wagon]

bad advice ( tuning a vehical up is a lot like a overclock to a pc just keep adding voltage till it works) lol dont ever take that as real advice

[indigo coral]

lol

[shadow osprey]

I wouldn't call an RX300 a small car but ok

[indigo coral]

It looks a lot bigger than it is

Also it was dirt cheap

[shadow osprey]

It's not big, but it's not a civic

[indigo coral]

yeah but we'dve paid a looot more for a civic

We paid about 150$ for my RX

[shadow osprey]

@queen wagon big facts

And now you're paying the other $2000 in repairs

[indigo coral]

Not really

[shadow osprey]

When you buy a mercedes, the saying goes "you can spend $30,000 now or you can spend $30,000 later"

[queen wagon]

i love me and my girls 2007 jeep compass we have a 1.5" lift on it, 1/2" wheel spacers and running 29" tires on it ( factory tires are 27") although the ones it came with for some reason were only measuring about 24.5" but still good tred so idk what was up with that

[indigo coral]

I shudder to think how bad a 99 Merc would be in terms of reliability

[shadow osprey]

Ew compass

[indigo coral]

My car is at least reasonably reliable

It's got some idiosyncrasies seeing as it's 20 years old but its doing pretty well I'd say

[queen wagon]

not my favorite but we got a decent deal on it and tradded in her old rust bucket

[shadow osprey]

I'd rather buy another rust bucket :lul:

[queen wagon]

although i will say this that compass of ours is dang reliable even got me thru all sorts of deep snow and such

[indigo coral]

Jeep = rust bucket

[shadow osprey]

Buy a shitty CRX and at least feel cool while driving it

[queen wagon]

lol naw i love the crx but i need my truck or suv's

i deliver stuff a lot and help move folks

[indigo coral]

I want to buy an E60 5er but that's... Kind of financially reckless

[queen wagon]

1991 honda crx si was always a beauty for me to look at

[shadow osprey]

Not really

They're pretty cheap

Friend of mine just sold his 550i for like 4k, only needed a new rack and pinion LOL

[queen wagon]

my goal is a jeep wrangler of some sort that or a ram 1500

imma build either one as a offroader but take it to texas for its full overhaul there is a place that can make them not loose their towing capacities but still get em lifted or dropped its a guarantee from them

[shadow osprey]

You can get a decent i6 E60 for 4-6k

Wranglers have towing capacities?

[indigo coral]

Yeah, I've been doing some reading into those, people seem to say theyre relatively reliable

Not a toyota, but not a E60 M5 lmfao

[queen wagon]

not much but yea

[shadow osprey]

BMWs have never been very reliable

[queen wagon]

2000-3500 roughly

[indigo coral]

Bangle butt 7 series was very bad

along with M5 of the E60 gen

[shadow osprey]

bangle butt?

The V12?

[indigo coral]

one sec

that monstrosity of a rear end

[shadow osprey]

Oh the previous gen

I wanted that gen M6, with the V10

Sounds like heaven

Only V10 in a BMW also

[indigo coral]

The E60 5er, is really good from every angle except the rear, its a bit awkward there

but its not really ugly or anything

and hell, for the price, its a damn good value

[shadow osprey]

I'm cleaning my glasses but I keep losing my grip and touching the lens

honestly I think the E60 is the worst looking of pretty much all 5 series

except the really old ones

[indigo coral]

I quite like the front end

the rear end is a bit ungainly

but I can live with that

[queen wagon]

thats me and my girls vehical

[shadow osprey]

I think the dual grille on the E60 is stupid small for the size of the car, makes it look like... idk lame

[queen wagon]

wish i could get some 34" tires on it but there isnt a easy way to do that

[indigo coral]

I'd love to find a 550i for cheap but that'd probably be really high insurance (also horrid gas mileage)

[shadow osprey]

damn that thing is ugly lol I didn't realize jeep made something worse than the liberty

[queen wagon]

that was what she was driving

[shadow osprey]

Insurance agencies car more about the brand and model of the car than the trim

[indigo coral]

My premiums on my RX are already ludicrous

[stoic ledge]

That spoiler tho

[indigo coral]

Absolutely asinine

[shadow osprey]

A V6 mustang and a V8 mustang are basiaclly the same price wise for me

So I bought a cobra LOL

[queen wagon]

yep that was her brother that put that on when it was his car

[indigo coral]

No tickets or accidents or anything, yet theyre extremely high

Pisses me off tbh

[shadow osprey]

Without the wing it would be just another normal old car

Why

Why

[indigo coral]

Like I'm sorry, what is so bad about that? It's a slow, safe, grandma car

dual airbags, side impact airbags, good crash test ratings

[shadow osprey]

Nothing is safe about slow

[indigo coral]

i konw

its a safe car, that also happens to be slow

[queen wagon]

lol everything was falling apart like litteraly if you jacked it up in most spots you risked the frame falling apart

some of it did fall apart

[shadow osprey]

lmao

[indigo coral]

slow doesnt mean safe, but insurance jacks up rates with lots of power

[shadow osprey]

Yeah insurance is why I drive a 21 year old dodge pick up. No one expects it to be worth 5 digits lol

[queen wagon]

the engine was slowly being redone due to all sorts of issues, the rust was getting out of hand cant tell from there but we had to do a lot to keep it running heck her brother had bailing twine holding some of the hoses in place under the hood

[indigo coral]

I do wonder how bad it'd be with a 5er though, RWD and decent power, but its a midsize safe sedan

depends on how they look at it lmao

I've heard they handle really quite well though

[shadow osprey]

Worse than your RX i can imagine

price, not handling

[indigo coral]

yeah

if it was worse than my RX in handling, BMW done fucked up

[queen wagon]

had to fix raditator mounts on that due to the mounts being so rock hard they broke from the rattling of the cars engine from normal use so the radiator slightly moved until i replaced the mounts for it

[shadow osprey]

You should take a ride in a minvan if you think your suspension is bad

[queen wagon]

the compass i just hate that the windows arent fully to the back its like they were designing it and went hmm how much of a blindspot can we give legally

[shadow osprey]

It may be a 2010 Sienna but it's a BOAT

Soft af, especially getting out of a 3/4 ton truck, but the body roll 😂

[indigo coral]

Mine leans SO MUCH in corners

[queen wagon]

i did a 90 degree turn on gravel in a minivan a long time ago wile learing to drive at 45 almost rolled and by almost i mean littewraly got on 2 wheels

i got 45-60 around corners in the compass depending on the turn

[shadow osprey]

I'm not going for any handling awards, thanks

[queen wagon]

only ones i go slower for are sharp 90 degree turns in town

[shadow osprey]

It's just as bad with hard ass suspension, you just oversteer or understeer like a bitch

[indigo coral]

DAMN.... There's a 550i Msport on craigslist for 6800$

has 64k miles

😮

[queen wagon]

wow

[shadow osprey]

What's wrong

[indigo coral]

bent rim and needs new tires all around

[queen wagon]

too bad we dont have the chance to buy linus's car it got a new paint job years ago by the ltt group lol

[indigo coral]

aka probably new suspension in front pass side

if they hit something hard enough to bend a rim

[shadow osprey]

I don't mind driving a civic, I learned on a civic, but I can't do gaudy colors on a commuter car

definitely not pink and green

[indigo coral]

Lol

My RX is brown which I actually don't mind

is kinda pretty in the sun

[shadow osprey]

You can bend a rin and not mess up anything else

[indigo coral]

even with bent rim its a really good deal

[shadow osprey]

brown
pretty

[indigo coral]

its not bad considering the other colours lexus offered on that year

paint is still in really good condition, still has metallic sparkle too on my RX

[queen wagon]

the hard part for most is alloy wheel or a steel based wheel

[stoic ledge]

Well it's nineties twin-color... 😛

[indigo coral]

its alloy

[queen wagon]

that and what offsets

[indigo coral]

yeah, but for 6800$

that's a lot of power and a lot of fun

[queen wagon]

for offraoders i should be using steel rims but i choose alloy wheels and have a bit more rip protection from my side walls on my tires

[indigo coral]

(yes, I know old mustangs are quicker or whatever but theyre not luxury 5 series)

[stoic ledge]

Is it E60 or E61

[indigo coral]

e60, 61 is the wagon

[queen wagon]

INFINITI G35 i wana say has a custom made body kit that you can buy thats litteraly more then the car new almost cuz the kit alone is 20k

well more then the car was new back when it was new

[stoic ledge]

^^ i know but E61 is nicer xD

I think a G35 was over 20k new

[indigo coral]

not sure if america even got that wagon 😦

otherwise that'd be amazing

[stoic ledge]

[queen wagon]

might have been but like i was saying the kit is almost more then then the car is new

[stoic ledge]

I think so... Atleast you guys got the E61 M5 if i'm not mistaken

[indigo coral]

lol the 520i only has 168hp

I know we didnt get the M5 wagon

we got the M5 sedan

[stoic ledge]

Ah

In that case... R.I.P

[indigo coral]

(125kw on the base 5er lol)

[stoic ledge]

My brother has a 318i... 146hp

[queen wagon]

33k fully loaded according to a site i looked up for the g35 when it was new

[stoic ledge]

Not even the base engine (316i)

[queen wagon]

so that kit is almost half the price of the vehical

[indigo coral]

550i has 362hp

or 270kw

[stoic ledge]

Ah American <-> Dutch pricing, car was waaay more expensive over here

[indigo coral]

we dont even have the 316i over here

[queen wagon]

i wonder what you would do if you dropped a v8 somehow in a crx doesnt seem possible but if it could be done i wonder hmmm

[indigo coral]

only the 318, and only in a few model years

[stoic ledge]

Wow you guys did get the 318i 😮 Usually the American lineup starts with the 328/330i

[indigo coral]

we had a lot of 325i

[queen wagon]

use its back truck area to hold the battery, the brake stuff and all that thats not needed in the front and then drop it in hmm its got me thinkin

[indigo coral]

the 318 was fairly rare

[stoic ledge]

Ah same, but the 325i was also a 6 cyl

[indigo coral]

mhm

a few 4cyl are around but mostly 328i and higher

[stoic ledge]

(atleast it used to be, not sure which gen you are talking about xD )

Well most are 318i/320i here so 2.0 4 cyl

[indigo coral]

Everyone drives far too fast here

The other day, on the way to school, I was trying to match traffic and eventually just gave up

and kinda just hung back and went a reasonable speed

[stoic ledge]

318i vs same car 330i is like €15k vs €25-30k for the same spec E91

[indigo coral]

its asinine how fast some people drive

[stoic ledge]

(used that is)

[indigo coral]

Like I'd rather not get a ticket for 25 over the limit

(they were going about 140 km/h which is fucking crazy seeing as the limit is 100km/h)

[stoic ledge]

318i is faster than most people over here... + They don't pay attention... That's why I can outrun people with my Corsa at traffic lights 😝

[queen wagon]

thats only 86 mph

[indigo coral]

yeah exactly

that's fast on a 60mph speed limit

I've never taken my car faster than about 77

[queen wagon]

i usualy drive about 90-100mph when going from here where i live to omaha its like 45 miles away too far for me to go the 70 that the speed limit signs say

[indigo coral]

Not out of mistrust of the car, it does actually really well at speed, but I'd rather not get a ticket for that much over the speed limit

[stoic ledge]

I've done 105mph in the Corsa 👀

[indigo coral]

O.O

Mine is limited to 115, and I'd never dream of taking it that fast

[stoic ledge]

That's like literally top speed

[indigo coral]

I'm tempted to find somewhere and just give it the beans

[queen wagon]

fastest ive gone in a vehical on a area i shouldnt go fast was 95 of gravel

[indigo coral]

but my luck is that there'd be a trooper sitting at the end just waiting for me

[stoic ledge]

Midnight, border crossing Belgium <-> The Netherlands... No way there are cops there 😛

Also: zhe German autobahn

[indigo coral]

yeah but I'm stuck in 'murca

where the top speed on any highway is 80mph

maybe I'll go to 'mexico'

xD

[stoic ledge]

Cruising there at 100mph means you get pushed off by a bloody Fiat 500

[indigo coral]

like all the youtubers

...whos stupid enough to take a fiat to 100mph

those things are rolling deathtraps

[stoic ledge]

Yes

[indigo coral]

fiat = fix it again tony

[stoic ledge]

Yes

My brother has a Fiat Punto Evo 👀 Was actually a nice car

[indigo coral]

My parents have hit triples exactly one time

and my mom was about shitting a brick

[stoic ledge]

Looool

Well triples == 100kph == ez

[queen wagon]

if only we could all drive Koenigsegg Agera R's

[indigo coral]

Triples in MPH lol

[queen wagon]

im a speed demon id love to top one of those out

[indigo coral]

the car felt fine cruising at that speed, which kinda surprised me

[stoic ledge]

Agera is... Kinda expensive

[indigo coral]

seeeing as it has the aero of a filing cabinet

[queen wagon]

im saying if price was no object id love to drive one of those

[stoic ledge]

Same with our shed Meriva

[indigo coral]

Like I'd kinda think the Explorer would get shaky

but surprisingly no

[shadow osprey]

watch a youtube video and come back to 100 messages

[stoic ledge]

Funny thing: the Chevy Spark is the fastest car of this trio

[indigo coral]

that's an oof

[stoic ledge]

And I think it's a lower engine spec you Americans got... It's a 1.2 (you got a 1.4 if i'm correct)

We also had a 1.0 Chevy Spark, most Spark's are actually 1.0's

[queen wagon]

tessla model s would be fun to drive too just cuz all its power is to the floor right away

[indigo coral]

Oh yeah

I've ridden in two, a Model S 60 and a Model S 100D

Not the P100D sadly

[stoic ledge]

Too bad reliability is 💩

[indigo coral]

The guy with the 60 offered to let me drive it, but I declined seeing as it was an unfamiliar urban area, and I was relatively new to driving

[stoic ledge]

• their Apply-like parts chain...

[indigo coral]

If it was in my hometown I'd be like hell yes

I want a model 3 eventually

but once their reliability and parts prices/avaliabilityi mprove

Even the 60 RWD, the slowest Tesla they ever sold, was QUICK

(The 60 was the more fun ride, the guy really put it through its paces)

[shadow osprey]

No one here buys a Spark

I've seen like 3 no on a dealer lot

The average American can't fit their fat ass in one anyways LOL

[indigo coral]

^

LOl

I'm relatively thin and could BARELY fit in the Bolt's seat

(150lbs and 6'3)

[queen wagon]

lol thats true

[shadow osprey]

I'm skinny af but tall so I have size restrictions in other ways lol

[queen wagon]

heck im 5'9" 230lbs

was 255 but realised i gotta change shit i was gaining too much

[indigo coral]

My dad has been bugging me to get in shape lol

I'm not particularly plump but I'm weak as hell

[queen wagon]

i did a lot of fighting in my younger days and i can honestly say folks with bigger musles cant fight better then skinny weak folks

good technique is better then more muscle

[shadow osprey]

I'm 6'3 150

[indigo coral]

Same^

[queen wagon]

well anyways gotta go for now ttyl hope you all have a great night

[indigo coral]

cya!

[shadow osprey]

later

[stoic ledge]

6'4" inches and .. idk what lbs xD

Also the Spark is my sister in law's car

[indigo coral]

I get my height from my dad, he's really tall but also kinda fat

lol

[stoic ledge]

Actually they sold quite well because it the 1.0 was tax free on LPG xD

Cars that sell well over here: make sure it has no taxes on it, people will buy it

And lol i'm the tallest of the family

[indigo coral]

My dad is 6'7... and my mom is 4'10 lmfao

Tall dad, tiny mom

(and no, she's not asian)

[stoic ledge]

6'7" == 2 meters damn

4ft10 damn

(converting number in my head = slow 😛

[indigo coral]

lol

[stoic ledge]

Also I'm also nearly 200lbs apparently

[indigo coral]

I'm 68kg

[shadow osprey]

about 80 kg?

oh

Nah that's about 160

[indigo coral]

200lbs is 90kg

[shadow osprey]

150 actually

[stoic ledge]

About 90kg

Well actually a bit under but roundig up =

[indigo coral]

I want to drive my dad's old mustang at some point

[shadow osprey]

It just poured harder than I've ever heard it rain before for literally 2.5 minutes and now it's quiet outside

[indigo coral]

hes got a '73 Mustang convertible

[stoic ledge]

well 2 days ago it started to snow suddenly xD

Also no classic car here

[indigo coral]

we have 2 1966 Broncos too, one is together and working, one is in pieces in our paint booth

[stoic ledge]

Nice 😛

The oldest car in the entire family is from 2010 here xD

[indigo coral]

My dad has a penchant for old cars

(and fords, incase yo hadnt noticed)

[stoic ledge]

Also gotta pick up my dad so brb

[indigo coral]

My car is the first car that he has ever had thats foreign

[shadow osprey]

They don't make em like they used to

[indigo coral]

(its my car, just registered in his name since I'm not 18)

[shadow osprey]

I'm 21 and my truck is in my dads name

Cheaper insurance

[indigo coral]

My parents are really nice to me lol, they pay insurance and gas atm as long as I can drive my brothers around when they ask

[shadow osprey]

My rents pay insurance also but not gas. Mainly cause they use it for dumps runs and towing our small boat

[indigo coral]

If I go on a trip w. friends, like a few weeks ago we went on a day trip that totalled 300 miles, I pay for that, but if its too and from school, driving siblings around, etc they pay for it

which I think is more than fair

[shadow osprey]

Yeah my parents did the same when I was in HS

[indigo coral]

they asked me and im like HELL YES lets do that

[shadow osprey]

lol right

[indigo coral]

seeing as I drive an hour each way every day to and from school

~30 miles

on a car that gets 17mpg

[shadow osprey]

geez

is there no bus?

[indigo coral]

nope

I live in a funny area lol

too much water to make bus feasible

despite being near a major metro area

[shadow osprey]

so you live on an unpaved road?

[indigo coral]

no I mean jsut the terrain

[shadow osprey]

Well cars as a general rule are not amphibian

[indigo coral]

its just a interesting area

[shadow osprey]

I'll take your word for it lol

[indigo coral]

like we're right near everything but not urbanized

Oof I think my favourite supercar is the Lexus LFA

lol

😍

[shadow osprey]

You think it looks good you should hear it

[indigo coral]

ugh damn mod

it sounds sOOO good

[shadow osprey]

That thing is sex in your ears

[indigo coral]

yessssss

xD

[shadow osprey]

Also where have you been, they came out like 8 years ago

[indigo coral]

It's literally amazing

oh I konw

ive loved it for a long time

might not be the fastest thing but WOW is it sexy, both visually and sound

who else can lay claim to a V10 that revs to 9900RPM

[stoic ledge]

That's a Nürburgring Edition 👀

[indigo coral]

yeah and its stunning

[stoic ledge]

To be fair I think the "normal" version looks better 😛

[indigo coral]

both are amazing except that white one running around with stupid lights

[stoic ledge]

Everybody: we want a new LFA
Lexus: hey here is a new ES

[indigo coral]

this one is nasty

like wtf did they do

[stoic ledge]

Lol that's a sticker over the headlights

[indigo coral]

oh thank goodness

whod be stuipid enough to actually swap them out

[stoic ledge]

Probably to not show off a new design underneath it

Lol no they wouldn't

You can also see the badge, reflector and stuff covered up

[indigo coral]

it looks stupid lol

[stoic ledge]

So "it won't give away the new design"

[indigo coral]

we need a new LFA from lexus

except

one thats not a rebadged bmw

😄

[stoic ledge]

BMW has nothing on that level to be frank

[indigo coral]

yeah i was memeing about the new supra

[shadow osprey]

to be frank?

[stoic ledge]

Reeeeeeeeeeeeee typing is hard

That took 4 edits

[shadow osprey]

frankly or to be frank, pick one

[stoic ledge]

Yes

[indigo coral]

I don't passionately hate the new supra, but its kinda true that they shouldve gone to the effort to create it themselves

[stoic ledge]

Buy both and pick a side

[indigo coral]

not just borrow a Z4

[shadow osprey]

Honestly it's decent looking

[indigo coral]

it looks OK

[shadow osprey]

The FT-1 was better looking :lul: but oh well

[indigo coral]

In my personal (probably controversial) opinion, it looks too small from the side

[stoic ledge]

Well besides co-developing the chassis (and using a BMW engine) it's completely different underneath

[indigo coral]

the Mk4 looked bigger

[stoic ledge]

Entire setup is different

[shadow osprey]

This one is a bit tall and skinny for me

The mk4 might be bigger but only cause it was wide

[stoic ledge]

The rear is Front... Still not sure

[indigo coral]

imo its just too small

Rear is pretty good

[stoic ledge]

https://scontent-lax3-2.cdninstagram.com/vp/cfce533d23dcf2d4239edcc00b2fd398/5D06FEE2/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/s640x640/50067467_2245161309139863_8444626346859233198_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-lax3-2.cdninstagram.com

How it should have looked xD

[indigo coral]

i like that a lot better than the real design

its a LOT better

[stoic ledge]

Basically the old one but modern xD

[shadow osprey]

That front is garbage

It's a miata

With a mk4 wing taped on the back

[indigo coral]

the wing is meh

[stoic ledge]

https://dmi3w0goirzgw.cloudfront.net/gallery-images/840x560/536000/400/536449.jpg

[indigo coral]

but hte rest of it is nice

[stoic ledge]

Old one had the same front xD

[shadow osprey]

Honestly the stock photos of the mk4 make it looks terrible xD

[indigo coral]

yeah

thoughts?

[shadow osprey]

It's a wagon

[indigo coral]

I'd buy the shit out of that

[stoic ledge]

I did have a better front pic but can't find it

[shadow osprey]

You've clearly never talked to me before

[indigo coral]

we haven't had a discussion about wagons, what are your thoughts?

(wagons are fantastic)

[shadow osprey]

Wagons are dope

[stoic ledge]

Some Dutch guys build a wagon Tesla Model S

[indigo coral]

Good. Right answer.

yeah but it looks worse than that one

(yes i know its just a rendering)

[stoic ledge]

Yeah it's more of a "shooting brake"

[indigo coral]

the blue wagon is ugly, the green one is OK

the two that were made

[stoic ledge]

https://media.autoweek.nl/m/ogxyqbtb5kdh_800.jpg

[indigo coral]

That ones ok

this one is nasty

too much floating roof at the back

I love wagons but that one just doesn't look good

[stoic ledge]

Oof that blue one looks like a hearse

But that's not Dutch but British

Dutch > British confirmed

Basically

[indigo coral]

(thats a real car)

[shadow osprey]

Get that off my screen

Now

[stoic ledge]

Yeah I know, I've seen one before

[shadow osprey]

That's better

[stoic ledge]

Lol xD

[shadow osprey]

The green one isn't terrible

[indigo coral]

I kinda like the green one, the blue one is no bueno

[shadow osprey]

Wheel bulge in the rear need to be lower, needs more rear glass

[stoic ledge]

To bad they gave it the facelift front end

[shadow osprey]

Looks like a quarter window instead of a full size window

[stoic ledge]

Pre-facelift was better looking imho

[indigo coral]

eh, i like the facelifted Model S

but the pre-facelift looked better from some angles

look its 12

am

im tired xD

[stoic ledge]

I don't like the No grill-front look

A car needs a grill xD

It's 9.30 AM

[indigo coral]

not in my timezone 😂

its just past midnight here

[stoic ledge]

😛

[indigo coral]

12:27

😢 im doing stats homework lol

while being distracted by discord lmfao

[stoic ledge]

That's when the day starts

Lol stats homework, good memories (not)

[indigo coral]

Im taking stats and calculus simultaneously

[stoic ledge]

Not sure if that's normal or not 😛

[indigo coral]

well theyre different level of classes

and different course sequences

at my campus

[stoic ledge]

[shadow osprey]

in the US, stat is that class people take who can't do calc

It's the cop out class :lul:

[stoic ledge]

I took the highest level of math, never used it since at University xD

(well not really true, but only basic stuff)

[indigo coral]

I'm in calculus 1, which is followed by 2, 3, then differential equations 1 and 2, linear algebra 1, then calculus 4

[stoic ledge]

I think I've done almost all of that (?)

[indigo coral]

at my community college - then I'd imagine it continues on upwards at university

[stoic ledge]

At university I didn't really learn any new maths xD

[indigo coral]

aight im going to bed, talk to yall tomorrow 😄

[stoic ledge]

See you later

[shadow osprey]

o/

[fathom socket]

@rotund yew 👌👌

[indigo coral]

This morning the noise (at least that I could hear) was largely gone and it's still shifting better :D

[fair bronze]

Ayy that's awesome

[stoic ledge]

Self-healing cars

[gloomy roost]

I’m gonna be buying my first car in the near future 👀

[stoic ledge]

👀

[indigo coral]

Yeah it's definitely smoother and quieter

🙏

[stoic ledge]

[indigo coral]

Only time it makes the noise is starting with moderate throttle from a stop, then it goes away. Might still be a touch low, I'll see when I get home. Used to happen any time I gave it much throttle at all.

Far far better though

[stoic ledge]

[indigo coral]

👌

[tropic silo]

[stoic ledge]

Is this Euro Truck Simulator? 😛

[civic spoke]

I was driving down that road today.

[indigo coral]

Oh fun

[civic spoke]

Camera is playing games with you. The road is super tiny.

[indigo coral]

And that's a semi or ?

[civic spoke]

Large box truck. Around 10 meters long, 2.55 meters wide, 4.5 meters tall.

[indigo coral]

Ah

That's kinda scary then

[civic spoke]

Oh, and that width is without to mirrors, so add another 20 cm on each side for those.

Along with 23 tonnes for the weight 😄

[indigo coral]

Wow

[civic spoke]

Basically that.

But we have a Scania R450

[indigo coral]

That's scary lol

[stoic ledge]

I was just about to say xD

[indigo coral]

I get a bit nervous in my RX driving along super skinny roads

Lol

[civic spoke]

We drove around in the area where I am having the driving test tomorrow.

[indigo coral]

Good luck

[civic spoke]

Thanks. 😃

[stoic ledge]

Gl hf!

[tropic silo]

Yey

[shadow osprey]

Ooh a CDL test? Fun, good luck

[unreal terrace]

@civic spoke What part of sweden are you from? 😛

[civic spoke]

@unreal terrace Stockholm

[unreal terrace]

👌

[indigo coral]

Oof just spent 2 hours waxing my car lol

[forest furnace]

We had to replace our furnace today which cost $2500. There goes the money to work on our 91 964 Targa.

[tropic silo]

A furnace, which is 2500$?

What kind of furnace is it?
An industrial grade furnace which can easily reaxh 1200°C?

[shadow osprey]

I have to buy new works clothes and shoes and front brakes for my truck so that will eat into my mustang budget lol I feel you there

[indigo coral]

I need to do all 4 rotors, and pads

lol

gonna be $$$

[tropic silo]

I didn't need to pay for my brakes 😄

All 4 got replaced😄

[stoic ledge]

Previous owner: you'll need to replace the brakes soon
Me 40k km later: still fine

[tropic silo]

My dad is good at bargaining (?) (Onderhandelen - Dutch) and got a deal with the dealer that he would pay for any repairs needed to the car. So i decided to replace the brakes the last day that deal was still "active"

[fair bronze]

Yeet

[stoic ledge]

Just spotted the new BMW 3er (G20). 318d so 148hp, but twin exhaust 😂

Also really small rims for such a car, 16", which just looks horrible imho

[civic spoke]

I guess I passed.

[stoic ledge]

Nice congrats

[tropic silo]

You guess you passed?

You're not sure?

[fair bronze]

I like the new 3-series, it's a great looking car in person

[tropic silo]

It is

My friend's parents have a BMW X5M and its a delicious car

[fair bronze]

Oh that's awesome

[tropic silo]

It surely is

My dad borrowed their car once and it was an amazing drive

[civic spoke]

I would totally drive the new 3 series with as the 320d. As long is it came with a manual.

Which is an option.

[tropic silo]

😄

Manual ftw!

[stoic ledge]

318d G20 with 16" alloys in white is not that pretty imho

Car really needs a M-package to look good

And larger rims

[tropic silo]

White alloys or

[stoic ledge]

Because 16"... C'mon man

No the car in white

[tropic silo]

Ah

I have 15" rims i think 😄

[stoic ledge]

But also twin-exhaust on a 2l diesel with 148hp

I have 16" xD

[tropic silo]

So to see a 318d g20 with 16" looks wereird

(r/ihadastroke)

[stoic ledge]

I was exactly like this

[tropic silo]

It needs bigger rims 😖

It looks like a BMW with offroad tires

[shadow osprey]

@tropic silo negotiate is google translate's word, but bargain is basically the same

[tropic silo]

Ah, thank you

[fair bronze]

It does need bigger rims

18 inch should be the standard for it

[shadow osprey]

Also for the record, I got 22s 😎

[fair bronze]

Under what car?

[tropic silo]

22"?

Wutthefuck

[shadow osprey]

not from the factory lmao

[fair bronze]

SUV or a truck I reckon

[shadow osprey]

pick up yeah

[tropic silo]

Or a Opel Corsa >.> @stoic ledge

Ah, makes sense then @shadow osprey

[tropic silo]

Interesting file name tbh

[fair bronze]

Yeah

[tropic silo]

I would've gone for 21s personally. But 22 looks good too 😄

[fair bronze]

Size looks good, personally I don't like the look of those wheels, but to each their own

[shadow osprey]

21 is non-existent for 8 lug wheels

[fair bronze]

Still a nice ram

[tropic silo]

Mhm

Also 8 lugs. Lel

I have 5 😄

[shadow osprey]

It wasn't my first pick of wheel design but The only other decently priced wheels I could find were chrom 20s and I hate chrome

[fair bronze]

Yeah I can get behind that

[tropic silo]

Chrome yuk

[shadow osprey]

after 18" it goes up 2 inches at a time

[stoic ledge]

8 lugs... 4 ftw

[tropic silo]

Haha

[fair bronze]

Wouldn't want to have anyone think you're selling product

[shadow osprey]

^

Guy drive by in a blacked out suburban with dark tint and chrome 20s, asked if my wheels were for sale :lul:

[fair bronze]

lmao

[shadow osprey]

Literally last week

[tropic silo]

Lmao

[shadow osprey]

I was like....... no

I don't want your dirty money lol

[tropic silo]

It was nice of him to ask if they were for sale

He couldve just stole them

[shadow osprey]

locking lug nuts, don't worry

[tropic silo]

Ah

[shadow osprey]

all 32 of them lol

[tropic silo]

I dont have those 😄

[shadow osprey]

I had to get skinny lugs to fit the wheels and they were a special socket design so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[stoic ledge]

^^ same

[tropic silo]

But who wants the wheel of my car?
And my car is always parked behind a gate at night

[shadow osprey]

no one wants your wheels, but a wheel and tire 4 pack usually sells easy

[tropic silo]

Just tighten the lug nuts really thightly 😛

Use a hydraulic thing maybe idk

[fair bronze]

And have them break off lol

[tropic silo]

Nah

Make then titanium

[shadow osprey]

Yeah that's not gonna break the stud or anything

[fair bronze]

Torque wrench ftw

[shadow osprey]

If I had a dollar for every stud a friend of mine has broken lol

[tropic silo]

A friend of mine doesn't thighten the nuts thigh enough anymore he broke around 50 already and got scared now

[shadow osprey]

Friend of mine had a 90's Chevy 1500, broke like 3 studs per hub taking his wheels off in auto shop xD

[tropic silo]

Nice

[shadow osprey]

Drove around with it like that for a while cause that's the kinda guy he is

[tropic silo]

My wheels come off perfectly by hand

[fair bronze]

https://youtu.be/PDurMK8xND4

[shadow osprey]

The real problem being he bought a mercedes

[tropic silo]

Mhm

[fair bronze]

[tropic silo]

[stoic ledge]

Shops using air impact wrench to mount wheels 😡

[shadow osprey]

third times a charm

[stoic ledge]

Yes 😛

[fair bronze]

The air impact wrench should be fine tbh

It's easier to overtighten them by hand

[shadow osprey]

The shop I used to work at had this kit of different socket attachments to make an impact torque to a certain ft-lb. Nobody used them and they all told me not to use them lol

[fair bronze]

You can apply way more torque by hand
