[frosty snow]

Have u seeen the Mansory one?

[open sigil]

yeah

but isnt mansory just a body kit

[frosty snow]

Usually ya, but the owners hav the cash so they upgrade the other stuff too 😂

Liberty walk is usually just kit

[open sigil]

novitec exhaust is

[frosty snow]

Cuz owners of that tend to not upgrade much else on the car

Gintani tunes 🥵

On Svjs only

On Ferraris ehhh

[open sigil]

ferrari v12 > lambo v12

[frosty snow]

W16 😂😂😂😂😂

[open sigil]

w16s sound nice

[frosty snow]

Ye

[open sigil]

very unique and deep sounding

[open sigil]

i live an hour away from their office 😉

their main shop

[frosty snow]

Wow lucky

SoCal scene so nice

All the supercars warehoused and garaged for winter here

I saw a few today Though

-25C weather and 2 lambos were out

Perfect engine temps

[open sigil]

good thing winter doesnt exist here 😂

[frosty snow]

Yep hahah

[fluid yoke]

It sounds insane, havent seen an svj yet tho, only an sv

[drowsy jungle]

Saw this at cars and coffee, looked clean

[open sigil]

the mugen badge…😳

[proud tulip]

[open sigil]

[proud tulip]

I want a Mugen tune

[open sigil]

[drowsy jungle]

[frosty snow]

Innovative bumper delete

[proud tulip]

i guess 😂

more like laziness

[open sigil]

one thing ive been doing lately

only drive in front of modern or relatively modern looking cars because i assume those have auto braking 😂

so ill be confident if i get brake checked i wont get rear ended

[tough torrent]

Just like Tesla every time you let your foot off the go pedal it automatically brakes without pressing on the brake pedal. I was driving behind my friend when we picked up his Tesla and I called him to tell him stop braking on the darn highway. We figured it out after like 10min 🤣

[open sigil]

that always seemed so weird to me

how do you coast going downhill or on the freeway then

[tough torrent]

I think there is a setting that you can disable it.

[hollow radish]

speaking of Tesla, my dad just bought this one last week

[drowsy jungle]

It’s called regenerative braking. The brakes aren’t actually being used. It’s just using the momentum to try and capture the energy loss to charge the battery.

You should be able to adjust how aggressive regen is on new EVs

[tough torrent]

1927 Model T?

[hollow radish]

29 model A

[tough torrent]

Forgot about the model A. Looks like a Corvair but I’m more Leaning to a C2 Vett.

[hollow radish]

yup, 66

[frosty snow]

Same with sport mode on my car 😭😭 engine braking if foot off gas

Or it’s regen braking to charge the boost

[hard sky]

bros got winters and he's ready to get his midnight coffee

Car in tuning shop today

[fluid yoke]

Saw a canyan turbo on the way home

christmas tree dash when only the battery is on

[simple bear]

Nissan things

[open sigil]

we all good

hey nissans aren’t bad 😂
it’s just the clapped out altimas

[simple bear]

I'd totally drive a clapped out Altima tho

[open sigil]

the older altima coupes with the 3.5l v6 were quick

[simple bear]

That's the one I was talking about

Straight piped, every light on the dash, suspension that is broken

Everything

[open sigil]

those were basically just detuned g35/37s

they were good cars but sadly almost every example is clapped out

[proud tulip]

I love being told i cant have another old car 😔

[open sigil]

this hurts to look at

but it’s a range rover so it makes sense

[proud tulip]

At least all the Accords dont look too terrible lol

[open sigil]

so many questions

[fluid yoke]

[proud tulip]

Oh? Lmao 🤣

[jaunty sequoia]

It does, the Rx series is supposed to be rotary

[hard sky]

i miss the rotary engine

the wankel engine

[jaunty sequoia]

It's the perfect engine for Europe, where cars are taxed by displacement

[simple bear]

Aw hell nah

Thats true lol

Car has been sent off to the mechanic. Shes finally getting stuff done to it that shouldve been taken care of before now

[gentle nebula]

Lol

[proud tulip]

[tough torrent]

Ingolf it’s a Civic. You should try learn and teach yourself how to repair it. It be a great way to bond with your future wife even more as your helper 🤣

[radiant lion]

Clean spec

[gentle nebula]

To futuristic looking

[river bone]

euhm..... like. europe is more than 1 country... and those country's dont all use the same rules/regulations/taxes

[jaunty sequoia]

i know, i'm european...

[river bone]

then its even more facepalm

[jaunty sequoia]

you want more?

[river bone]

" The European Union ( EU ) is an economic and political union of 27 countries."
and if talking europe as a continent:
" In total, there are 45 countries in Europe today. "

so... 4/27 = 15% of the EU
4/45 = 9% of europe.
makes you decide its 100% and just say "europe"

[jaunty sequoia]

bro 💀

[river bone]

i'm sorry i just hate it when peeps just use generic " eu does this n that"

[jaunty sequoia]

the vast majority of european countries have similar laws, hence the EU. saying that something works for the european market doesn't mean it works for ALL of europe

but the vast majority

[river bone]

then ya should have said "MOST of europe..." not just blanket it " europe"

[jaunty sequoia]

are you european?

[river bone]

yes

and one of the coutnry';s that doesn't give a sheesh about displacement just whjat comes out the exhaust pipe

and vehicle empty weight

[jaunty sequoia]

i can understand that generalisations can be annoying like "X is legal in europe" when in reality it's only legal in like Monaco and Montenegro, but when it comes to markets, the majority decides what it's called

[river bone]

sure, but it still then needs to not be blanket mentioned

cause if you blanket statement it its just a discount like the others dont count at all, or dont exist

[proud tulip]

I will lol

[drowsy jungle]

Took my car in for a recall work, they gave me this base crap box while they wait for parts. 😦

[proud tulip]

hey

at least it aint a minivan

[drowsy jungle]

it doesn't have the 360 camera, lower quality leather, no soft-close doors, and a 4-cylinder 😦

WHO BUYS THESE THINGS

[proud tulip]

[drowsy jungle]

the turbo 4 isn't terrible, but sheesh, at least go for the turbo 6

[proud tulip]

i dont really care for fancy cars

sooo

it doesnt mean much to me anyway 😂

[drowsy jungle]

I like my comfort and performance

[hollow radish]

i agree, turbo 6 is a sweetspot

[proud tulip]

im just fine with my 2000 Civic

[drowsy jungle]

I have vehicles on completely opposite ends of the spectrum :p

my truck makes your Civic seem like a luxury car 😉

[proud tulip]

what kinda truck? :)

i believe i either have the LX or DX trim, i wannnnttttt the SI Trim. but uhhhh. yeahhhh cant find any 😂

[radiant lion]

i think they're in their sweet spot for now. Not so futuristic and keeping the classic 911 style

[drowsy jungle]

Kei truck

[proud tulip]

Ah lol

[open sigil]

[frosty snow]

Trying to get my friend to purchase a Toyota Sera. He is telling me no such thing and he thinks a prototype after I sent him a photo of it. 🤣

[simple bear]

2024 Mustang Dark Horse. Optional carbon fiber wheels

I like the look of that

https://youtu.be/oEmaSnpgoec

Tremec manual transmission mated to a 500HP Coyote engine

IT HAS A DRIFT BRAKE???

https://www.ford.com/cars/mustang/2024/

[raven oracle]

This looks pretty sick

Sometimes gas guzzlers tempt me away from my EV

[wintry vortex]

That is the sickest Mustang i've seen in a while

[simple bear]

It is

I low-key want one

[frosty snow]

We have a corvette cop car now

Too bad it’s just for Autoshow, OPP corvette

[gentle nebula]

I'd cop no cap

[open sigil]

wonder what the gt350/gt500 will look like

if those are still around for this generation

[jaunty sequoia]

probably like the 2024 ford taurus, but more boxy

and 2 door

[open sigil]

taurus sho underrated

those things are quick

[simple bear]

Tauruses are underrated

Fairly good looking car

Modern ones at least

[open sigil]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5mLan8QlCA

[gentle nebula]

As a person who works at a go kart track, I can confirm this 😂

[frosty snow]

How the...?

[frosty snow]

probs some GTA stuff 😂

[jaunty sequoia]

tbf, 70hp on a bike is a lot

[proud tulip]

Civic still at the shop. They found something else they needed to fix besides the ball joints and brake pads :p

[proud tulip]

[tough torrent]

Of course it’s a VW with a hack ECM 🤣

[open sigil]

all fun and games until this is the gti in question

[tough torrent]

Golf I remember GTI was 3 doors

[open sigil]

i think you may be confusing it with the veloster

[tough torrent]

Golf always been 4 doors GTI always been 3 doors

[open sigil]

by 3 doors do you mean 2 doors + trunk or 2 on 1 side and 1 on the other

[tough torrent]

2 door hatch

[open sigil]

ah

so it’s basically a 2 door 😂

[tough torrent]

Hatch was consider the extra door

[open sigil]

veloster hatch is weird

2 doors on driver side 1 on passenger side

or the other way around

[tough torrent]

WTF is that

[open sigil]

😂

it’s weird

another angle

[tough torrent]

They can keep it and there USB key

[open sigil]

lmaooo

the veloster n is amazing car though

one of the best hot hatches on the market

[tough torrent]

I rather drive a Corolla hatch over that thing

Oh wait I still own a hatch 🤣

Almost forgot

[open sigil]

nahhh

veloster n is amazing

comes in manual or dct

small and very quick

looks amazing too

and relatively cheap

[tough torrent]

I still keep my hatch better for sliding 🤣

[open sigil]

the 3 door thing is still weird

makes it almost the perfect car

but i guess some people would find that an interesting quirk about it

[proud tulip]

Sir. Thats 1 on driver 2 on passenger

Just sayin

You had it backwards

[tough torrent]

Try to park it in the busy downtown while the rear passenger get out of the vehicle into incoming traffic

[open sigil]

that’s why i said or the other way around spartan 😂

[proud tulip]

Didnt see it so it doesnt count

[open sigil]

and in my made up reality i’m not seeing your messages 😂

[proud tulip]

I mustve glanced over it. You did in fact say other way around 🤣

[jaunty sequoia]

I thought they discontinued it?

[hollow radish]

this has changed my life lol. i never knew that

[open sigil]

creative

[open sigil]

yeah discontinued for 2023

[open sigil]

ikr

[proud tulip]

i get my Civic back today finally

[open sigil]

woahhhh

c42

[frosty snow]

Yea just for show 😂

It’s uninsured

[open sigil]

probably replica

you can buy official show models from f1 teams

its completely accurate car just without the mechanical and electrical components

[frosty snow]

It’s legit, privately owned by collector

Easy 15mil in tht one corner

As the Regera is there too

But yea probs a show one, Ik cuz they started it up for friend tho

[open sigil]

forged carbon

[proud tulip]

I lied

[open sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/crying-ronald-weasley-harry-potter-car-driving-gif-7949574

[proud tulip]

Lmaooo Sadat

[drowsy jungle]

There’s a few of those up here in WA

[drowsy jungle]

Isn’t it discontinued mostly? There’s an Elantra N and Kona N though.

[open sigil]

they are

[open sigil]

@neat isle ill keep it in here this time

but one more thing

my cars infotainment system also says its on a version from 2017 😂

but i cant seem to update it myself

maybe that could be it?

[neat isle]

Oh

Could be

I don’t know how to update that though

I think that’s a dealer thing

[open sigil]

i pressed update like 1000 times and it just doesnt respond 💀

connected car to wifi and all that too

but yeah think this problem is out of my hands

at least thanks to you know ill know how to change a fuse 👀

[proud tulip]

it 100% is lol

fuses are ez

[open sigil]

im not an electro wizard like you

[proud tulip]

neither am i i just know things

[open sigil]

yeah

i dont know anything

🤣

[proud tulip]

should start learning 😝

[open sigil]

fuse box is enough for 1 day

time for food

[proud tulip]

indeed lol

[open sigil]

i still dont understand how my car is a 2019 model but the infotainment is on a 2017 version

and keep in mind 2019 was a complete refresh of the car as a whole... new outside and inside

[proud tulip]

weird?

[open sigil]

yeah

[tough torrent]

It was being built in 2017 in the factory when they release the vehicle prob end of 2018 and call it a 2019 model. You can get all that information once you decode the vin number online. Dealer can update the version or some vehicles you can update it yourself from purchasing a CD or dongle.

[frosty snow]

Just rolled into Autoshow

[drowsy jungle]

What car? Automakers don’t typically update the software unless something needs fixing. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Also visual refresh doesn’t always guarantee any changes to the software or infotainment hardware

[neat isle]

2019 altima'

[proud tulip]

see this is why i dont want anything newer than what i have

[tough torrent]

There is a build date and a release date. To find out you need to decode the vin number or look at the paper work that came with the vehicle

Like my vehicle the release date is 2015 when it’s suppose to be a 2016 year model

[proud tulip]

thats just how it works lol

my Civic was probably in the works in 1999

altough the 98-00 is all the same generation of Civic anyway

i also dont think theres very much difference between the 3

[tough torrent]

Some parts are interchangeable with integras and civic

[proud tulip]

not all tho :P\

[tough torrent]

I said some parts 🤣

[proud tulip]

🤣

[open sigil]

i don’t think these two could run on the same systems…

@drowsy jungle ^

[drowsy jungle]

Yea but the Altima was probably the last car to get the system. It probably debuted in other 2017 vehicles. Software version is usually deployed across multiple cars

Probably debuted in the Leaf first or something

[frosty snow]

@open sigil 😭

Emissions rip

[open sigil]

2019 was the year of the altimas new gen. other nissans were overhauled around the same time

[neat isle]

Hey @open sigil got some new info. Know someone with a 2016 Altima who had the same issues. Changing the fuse didn’t work for him because every time he swapped it it kept burning out. (you might want to check that spare one you tested yesterday)

Told me he had to take it into a shop and they replaced the usb ports…

[open sigil]

hmmm

the fuses both looked fine to me

but yeah probably have to replace usb ports

[neat isle]

Didn’t say anything about a software update either

[open sigil]

pre 2019 didnt have the big touchscreen

unless he has one of the higher up packages

most came with just a basic radio

ill probably take it to the dealer next week or week after next

not a huge deal since i know the way to school and back and bluetooth works fine

[neat isle]

Uhh not entirely sure of his trim level

[open sigil]

got electronics warranty on my car too so should be free

[open sigil]

the color on that lambo is amazing

[frosty snow]

Yea

Too many Ford gts in Ontario tho

Not even special anymore

[open sigil]

[simple bear]

Ouchie

[open sigil]

looks salvageable

urus's are tanks it probably has no frame damage

[frosty snow]

It’ll buff out dw

[open sigil]

bumper headlight few body panels a wheel or 2 and should be good as new

maybe some suspension components too it is sitting pretty low

[open sigil]

rsq8

the MUCH better buy over a urus

[frosty snow]

Yea

Same engin anyways 😂😂😂

Friend has one

Both his R8 and that have Lamborghini stamped engine

[open sigil]

for double the price youre not getting much more car

[frosty snow]

Branding hahaha

[open sigil]

throw a tune on a rsq8 and its an everything killer

[frosty snow]

The logo = +50 horsepower 🤡

[open sigil]

rsq8 > cayenne turbo gt and urus

any day

[frosty snow]

Turbo Gt op too

[proud tulip]

https://www.wikihow.com/Open-a-Headlight-of-a-Car#:~:text=Luckily%2C you only need a,t develop any moisture damage.

Thinking of cracking open this new headlight and painting it to match the old one since this ones chrome 😆

i will be going here soon to pull the factory grille off that Champagne Civic the junkyard has to replace my broken aftermarket one tho :3

just gotta get a little extra money first

[tough torrent]

Now I figured what been draining the battery in the AE86. It was the back up alarm system (secondary alarm system) with the built in battery that causing the issue. Just order a new clutch master cylinder this morning found it leaking yesterday. Maybe that’s why I had issue with the clutch

[proud tulip]

probably 😂

alsoooo why does it need a back up alarm system?

[tough torrent]

Let’s say if they (thief and maybe you) get through the primary alarm the secondary alarm will kick in. Just think of a server having (2) firewalls for extra protection

[proud tulip]

Ah neat

My car has 0 alarms 🤣

But also people dont really care to steal Hondas anymore tbh

[tough torrent]

^Proud “Honda Boyz” ^

[proud tulip]

Lmaoooo 🤣

[open sigil]

i mean

isnt civic still the most stolen car in america

or at least still in the top 3

[gentle nebula]

#kiaboys 😂😂

[proud tulip]

Nopeeeee

Not that im aware

[open sigil]

heres 2021

[proud tulip]

Number 7: Nissan Altima

[open sigil]

😔

at least mines got some security on it 🤣

[proud tulip]

Fucking who is stealing 2000 Honda Civics 🤣

[open sigil]

👀

[proud tulip]

Wut even lma9o

[open sigil]

but in reality most of the robberies probably happen in detroit/chicago/atlanta 😂

[proud tulip]

More like LA 😂

[open sigil]

nahh

[proud tulip]

Have you seen the amount of Police Pursuits for Stolen Vehicles in LA?

[open sigil]

i guess

but those dont happen that often

[proud tulip]

That your aware of 🤣

[open sigil]

one actually drove past my house 😂

i wasnt home when they did though

[proud tulip]

I have twitter accounts that say otherwise

I follow LA Scanner accounts on Twitter

Theres at least 1 to 3 pursuits everyday

[open sigil]

the main place for car related crime is san fransisco. the city is notorious for car thefts

[proud tulip]

Most ive seen televised in one day is 6 😳

[open sigil]

not car thefts but lke they smash the windows and steal whatevers inside

people in SF just leave their doors unlocked so robbers dont smash their windows 😂

[proud tulip]

I also dont keep anything worth stealing in my car 🤣

Oh. Speaking of a police pursuit

Theres one rn from LAPD

[open sigil]

ok well

at least its not as bad as other cities on the east coast

[proud tulip]

True

Cant have shit in Baltimore

[open sigil]

and tbh some people make it SOOO easy to let their cars get stolen

oh let me park in some shady area and leave my keys inside the car and the car unlocked

nooooo why did it get stolen

[proud tulip]

[open sigil]

people leave their cars unlocked its insane to me

some even the key in the center console or in the sun visor

[proud tulip]

Literally my father in law 😂

He will leave the keys in his worktrucj

[open sigil]

i be spamming the lock button 20 times while im leaving my car anywhere

[proud tulip]

Its like bruh. Whyy tho

I dont have a keyfob. I have to physically lock it

[proud tulip]

I still dont understand who tf is actually still stealing the 2000 Civic 🤣. There are so many years that are better than the 2000

[neat isle]

Hey fun fact- this lines up pretty well with the most MADE vehicles

[proud tulip]

Does it? Lol

[open sigil]

i am 😈

[open sigil]

i mean yeah.. but the years are all over the place too

a 2022 civic wont be stolen as much obviously

[neat isle]

Yeah

[open sigil]

but i wonder why some 2020 models are up there 😳

gotta booby trap my car

[neat isle]

How many cats on it?

I know my dads 03 sienna has 3 so some people go for similar

[proud tulip]

come steal mine and get it fixed up for me will ya?

[open sigil]

i thought he was talking about the animal at first

[proud tulip]

1 i believe

[open sigil]

but someone looking to a steal a cat wouldnt go and steal the whole car right?

[proud tulip]

Nahhhh Catalyic Converter lol

[proud tulip]

Ehhhhh youd be surprised

[open sigil]

hmm

i know prius cats are very desirable

since the hybrid system kicks in so much the cat still has higher amounts of the rare metals in it from not being used as much

[proud tulip]

Interesting lol

Ik someone stole the cat off of my brother-in-laws blue Accord for whatever reason lol

[open sigil]

any hybrid in general will be a top target for cat thiefs

[proud tulip]

Sounds about right lol

[tough torrent]

Ingolf stop stealing your own Civic everyday 🤣

[open sigil]

wait

@proud tulip

if you have to manually unlock it

does it unlock both sides

[neat isle]

I know what’s wrong with it

[open sigil]

*it aint got no gas in it

only a mercedes could end up upside down 😂

in front of an auto fix store 💀

[neat isle]

you said the wrong thing

||it ain’t got no gas in it ||

[open sigil]

that too

there we go

[simple bear]

Isn't yours a 2000?

[hard sky]

SHEEEESH

@frosty snow do you put 91 or 93 in your car?

finding 93 in ontario is harder than i thought lmao

[frosty snow]

93

I have one nearby thts cheap

It’s only 1c more than 91

It’s in RH though

But if no option I go 91 in york region as it’s cheaper than south of steeles

[hard sky]

gdi

yeah i just go shell 91

[open sigil]

@frosty snow any idea what this is?

it looked like a mercedes from the front end

[frosty snow]

CLE

The new model they’re gonna release

Good spot

[open sigil]

👀👀

i was taking pictures and the guy driving was looking at me 😂

[gentle nebula]

OMG, A CONCEPT CAR IS THE WILD!!!!! They wrap them in patterns like that to make it harder to see the curves of the vehicle

As you can see, they even covered majority of the lights too

[open sigil]

i never see those out in the road 😂

they usually do most if their testing on a private track

[gentle nebula]

We don't have anything like that in aus, no car manufacturers

[frosty snow]

They’re testing the safety like blind spot and other stuff atm

We had the electric hummer do that here in Ontario

After they did wind tunnel testing at our facility

They would drive it on roads to test safety features and other stuff

[open sigil]

what the hell in this rain water 😂

[neat isle]

what isnt

[proud tulip]

Everything

[open sigil]

seems that way

[proud tulip]

Thats usually how it is

We got a shit ton of rain the night my car went to the shop. And my car still dirty asf

[open sigil]

mercedes f1 car being filmed with what looks like a glc63 amg

[frosty snow]

Yea a 2019 one maybe

[open sigil]

looking at getting some new tires

these are my 3 options

[open sigil]

cross climate 2s are an option because 4x of those and installation under 1k is a steal

other stores would be 1.1-1.2k+

[languid jay]

Sooo ughhhh this goes down to $111.77 bucks out of my pocket

2015 Subaru Legacy upgrade

hmmm should I do blue or white?

Wait white bc of then I can't have them on while driving

cuz legal bs

[open sigil]

@frosty snow

[tough torrent]

I hate when people wrap there vehicles especially in that chameleon. I remember they use to paint there vehicles in that color back in the 90s

Never understood why they take a short cut to save money to wrap a vehicle where you can do it the correct way and paint it.

[neat isle]

because wrap is temporary and you can just peel it off if (when) you get tired of it

but I don't like it either :p

[tough torrent]

Waste of money and I bet it ruin the clear coat and finish

[proud tulip]

Bcz wraps are 10x cheaper?

[tough torrent]

$500 to wrap a vehicle typically?

[open sigil]

i mean it’s a show car

it looks cool

color changes depending on the angle and light

[proud tulip]

I would much rather spend the money to get it wrapped than painted

Its 10x cheaper

Getting a car painted professionally is at least 1k if not more depending on what you want done

[open sigil]

check out the video of the bmw, massive air intake hidden in the grill

[tough torrent]

Go to Maaco and see how much they charge to paint a vehicle then compare on the wrap 🤣

[proud tulip]

Okay but see thats the thing. It depends on what else needs done to the car

If its just a repaint sure

But what about rust repair etc.

[tough torrent]

You think a wrap is going to hide the rust?

[proud tulip]

Nah lmao i didnt say that did i?

[neat isle]

I mean it’ll cover it

[proud tulip]

Indeed

[neat isle]

You’ll just have bumps

Maybe

[proud tulip]

Which for some people is fine

[tough torrent]

For how long before it traps moister and the rust going to spread out more

[open sigil]

pretty cheap wrap job if it has bumps 😂

[proud tulip]

For some cars the rust aint worth fixing

Like mine for example

[tough torrent]

That’s why you get rid of it and get another one rust free easy fix

[proud tulip]

Hush

[tough torrent]

I restored from ground up on (2) cars from the chassis up and I’m on my third one. I built a show/track vehicle also. Now you can see my point of view.

[simple bear]

How difficult is it to fully restore a car?

I've been wanting to get a 1971 Mach 1 to restore

[frosty snow]

DADDY

AMAZing shots once again

Ty for sharing

[languid jay]

Do you put your car in the show?

[tough torrent]

Don’t do it. It’s cheaper and no headaches just go out and purchase one already restored

After I finish up my AE86 I’m done restoring next one will be restore I already have my eyes on one right now.

[open sigil]

😂😂 i drive an altima

[open sigil]

craziest gt i’ve ever seen

all the aero and stance

[languid jay]

I mean you still could put it in the show

[open sigil]

today was limited on parking so the organizers reserved it to the actual show cars 😞

it took an hour 30 to just get in

[languid jay]

ah

[open sigil]

69 mach 1

peep the stand for the poster board

[tough torrent]

I started in the smaller local shows first then I start moving up to the larger shows. Next thing I know I was competing international.

[languid jay]

Nice brake disk

For the stand

[tough torrent]

Out of all the shows I been to Importfest in Canada kicked my rear end. Those vehicles are on a different planet

[open sigil]

while going to the meet there was an accident behind me

porsche gt3 rear ended another car which rammed another car

traffic in front suddenly stopped which caused a chain reaction of people slamming their brakes, people behind us couldn’t stop in time

[open sigil]

ikr it was a super cool subtle touch

[languid jay]

It looks cool

Ikr

[open sigil]

e55 amg is just

[tough torrent]

Something is fishy about that E class. Something is throwing me off and part of it is the front grill, tail pipe and the seats.

Do you have a photo of the brake set up with the calipers front and rear?

Never mind on the seat. From the look the AMG badge looks to low from the headrest then when I looked at again it was another neck pillow what ever you want to call it added aftermarket

[open sigil]

entire front bumper looks aftermarket

exhausts too

probably custom pipes entire rear looks stock

i’d definitely want an e55 in my collection

[tough torrent]

Rear diffuser is aftermarket along with the side skirt and front lip. The front bumper is stock

[open sigil]

you can see some of the brakes here, looks just like the stock amg brakes

[tough torrent]

The front big mesh grill is aftermarket

[open sigil]

super clean build, looks oem+

[tough torrent]

That’s a true E55 from the front brake set up

[open sigil]

wish i got to hear it start up

probably sounds amazing

[tough torrent]

He put a E63 front bumper I miss the fins on the side

[open sigil]

e63 tail lights too

Lol the entire car just basically looks like an e63 but is an e55

[tough torrent]

Those tail lights came on the CLK along with the E and C class

[open sigil]

w211 was such a great generation for amg cars

[tough torrent]

They came with the kompressor. Also the W209 M113 motors were one of the best motors from Benz

[open sigil]

sls amg and e55 are definitely in my top 5 from mercedes

kompressor needs to come back

[tough torrent]

Nope it’s all about the turbo and bi turbo 🤣

[open sigil]

😲

clean carfax service history and low mileage

13k is such a steal

the guy from DDE

[tough torrent]

To much for a C230.

[open sigil]

yeah but a low mileage example of that with a squeaky clean record and perfect condition interior

that’s gotta be rare

and it’s a supercharged merc

[tough torrent]

But it’s a 230, if it’s not manual then it’s not rare

[open sigil]

thats a good deal

older luxury cars are great

[open sigil]

all the photos and videos i took at todays car meet made my icloud storage fill up 😂

[languid jay]

lol

[open sigil]

livin on the edge

[languid jay]

[open sigil]

L google for not having free unlimited anymore

[languid jay]

L for paying for icloud

[open sigil]

😞

it’s only 99 cents a month

[languid jay]

100GB for $2 a month

But I don't take pictures on a frequent basis anymore

I also backup onto my hard drive every once in a while

[open sigil]

i’ll probably have to upgrade to 200gb for 2.99 a month

[frosty snow]

lmfaoooo love that, me all the time

i dont have icloud sub so i just backup to pc and delete from phone after a period

currently i just airdrop to ipad

but yea, 256 in the future feeling too small as everything is bigger, idk how ppl do it with 64gb on phone though

[open sigil]

😂

i thought i wouldve been fine with 128

if i save photos and videos locally ill only have 20gb left

[simple bear]

I got 256gb of phone storage

[tough torrent]

They dump all there photo’s onto the laptop or MacBook. They carried around in there backpack during the show. This is why everyone use to go out and got a DSLR because of the storage stick back in my days 🤣

[frosty snow]

Same haha

[frosty snow]

They still do haha! Still have the serious photographers with their backpack with gimbal now too

Taking up close vids and shots of cars

But now the iPhone guys as u mentioned also just airdrop photos 😂

[proud tulip]

For the F1 people here 🤣

[neat isle]

Interesting. This explains both.

I’m not into either lol

[open sigil]

f1 is awesome

[neat isle]

I just noticed the alternatively thing

So it’s a beanos guide to both

[proud tulip]

Indeed lol

haven’t seen my paint shine in a while it’s been so dusty and dirty 😂

also the only place you should ever be washing your car

[languid jay]

Dang I see a car but no hydrophobic coating on it?

[languid jay]

Okay okay. I didn't see it in the picture

Lol

[open sigil]

😂

[languid jay]

I need to do a deep clean of my car soon

[languid jay]

Sadly we don't have any of these anymore in my hometown

[open sigil]

it’s also soap being sprayed not water

rippp

i love this wash

5 bucks for 11 minutes of time

[languid jay]

It's a monopoly for crew carwash

Dang

Wait there might be one.... Hold up lemme look on Google maps

@open sigil I do have only one

I might go to it from now on

Crew carwash is just to lazy plus free vacuums too

[hollow radish]

i like that blue

[open sigil]

it’s so worth it

a lot cheaper and fun to spray your car down

[open sigil]

i love it

[languid jay]

$10 for everything including vacs and foam and stuffs

[open sigil]

that’s really good

the one i go to you have to pay extra for vacuum

[wide lintel]

It's not a new car, but I bought it new in '16 as a '17 model! 😄 My automotive pride and joy!

[hard sky]

it looks like a beast

prob drinks gas though

with the the 5.0

[frosty snow]

I manual in summer and touchless in winter 😂

Can’t be bothered to stand in negative weather with a hose to hand dry and all that stuff

[frosty snow]

Thts really good, it’s like 1$ a minute here

And then automatics are 6$ a minute, 20$ fee for one time

[hard sky]

do you know any decent detailers in the GTA?

[wide lintel]

It's not bad at all, honestly. 25ish MPG on 93 octane and 17-18 MPG on E85. But that's without hooning it too.

[gentle nebula]

Stole it from insta, but is200 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

looks like ring has gotten into the dash cam business

but reviews so far are not very good 😂

3.5 stars on amazon and 3 stars on their own website

[hollow radish]

gonna go look for a new to me used truck today, lol

[gentle nebula]

Nice

Good luck!

[hollow radish]

thank you

just got mine all cleaned out, Incase I find something

[jaunty sequoia]

do y'all know about any VAG tuning houses?

and preferably not APR, since they mainly do NA only and no diesels

[hollow radish]

in what area

[jaunty sequoia]

western norway hopefully, but any tuner that does european shipping will do

i'll probably end up dyi-ing any install

[hollow radish]

oh, what kinda car

[jaunty sequoia]

Skoda Octavia vRS, mk3

[hollow radish]

a lot of places even VW dealer in the states will install APR software.

[jaunty sequoia]

software isn't really an issue, as i would probably end up putting it on a dyno anyways

[hollow radish]

but I don't know anything about Skoda or Norway lol

[jaunty sequoia]

the main issue is hardware

chances are that if there are VW performance parts, they work with skoda

[wide lintel]

Is this the new one? Looks good!

[hollow radish]

new to me lol, 2019, thanks. just wanted something nicer for work than my old truck

[frosty snow]

Eurocharged / ECC here in Ontario might have/do shipping

[wide lintel]

Love it! But I'm biased (Ford + white). What's the running gear?

[hollow radish]

I have to admit I'm not sure what you mean by running gear?

[wide lintel]

Sorry. Engine?

[hollow radish]

ahh it's the 2.7 eco boost. 6cyl twin turb

my last truck had it, I'm a fan

[wide lintel]

Very nice! I was very surprised by the 2.7!

[hollow radish]

this is the one I traded in, it was a base XLT so nothing fancy at all inside. the white one is a better trim level and has a lot more options

[wide lintel]

Heck, couldn't go wrong with either! I'm jealous!

[hollow radish]

the grey one was all cloth interior no power seats , tiny little screen lol. I'm happy to have more opulence with the white one . I loved the grey one too though. different look for sure though with the wheels and tires I did

[open sigil]

my moms parking

[proud tulip]

bruh 😂

[neat isle]

My grandpa uses an old spool hanging from the ceiling, about 18in from the end. When he hits that he knows to stop.

[open sigil]

her car is literally a 21 model with all the safety sensors and she still does this 😂

she also hits my mirror sometimes

[neat isle]

oh

[open sigil]

it’s so annoying

she makes contact, stops, and keeps going 😂

oh no

i’ve never parallel parked

well i have once with the driving instructor

but i’ve never done it in the real world

[languid jay]

My Grandma uses a lid for a rubbermaid

[tough torrent]

Parallel parking is easy. If you never done it. Good luck in parking in NYC, D.C., etc. The locals will hate you for holding up traffic 🤣

[tough torrent]

Tennis ball works better it won’t scratch 🤣

[neat isle]

He barely taps it and it’s small and light

No scratches there yet

[river bone]

Never parallel parked.... its a requirement to pass driving license here...

@open sigil @spice badger @languid jay in case y'all wanna take a look at it too

[open sigil]

a bit overpriced but not bad

market value is around 8-10k

[languid jay]

ngl I think the aftermarket head unit might screw up the unit above the infotainment system

[open sigil]

these are also an option

so you dont have to tear apart your car

[simple bear]

Bluetooth capability?

[languid jay]

But honestly you can ask me anything about how the infotainment works and I can tell you about it

[simple bear]

Plus I can use the stock head unit if I want to use the standard radio

[open sigil]

wireless android auto

[languid jay]

Stock unit yes you do

[simple bear]

Ignore this, it's a dumb question. Android Auto will work with it

[simple bear]

I know that

[languid jay]

just trying to help out lol

[simple bear]

But I hear it's a PITA to sync to your phone

[languid jay]

Yeahhhhhhhhhh it stuck donkey balls tbh

[simple bear]

Then this is my option

[languid jay]

Like I have to repair it almost everytime I get into the car

[simple bear]

I want something that'll connect when I turn the key on

[languid jay]

But you could customize the bass and oh boi did it hit hard

[open sigil]

those portable units are probably the best choice for older cars

[simple bear]

I could take the panels off and ambitiously replace all the speakers

For better speakers

But I don't want to take the dash apart

So I'll leave them

[open sigil]

don’t sleep on stock sound systems

they might just be great

[simple bear]

Not in the Explorer lmao

[languid jay]

Honestly mine are stock and they do pretty well.

[open sigil]

my stock 8 speaker system is great

[simple bear]

However the bass shakes the doors

[languid jay]

I don't know the brand of speaker so

[open sigil]

my moms car has 12 speaker bose sound system and it sounds fucking amazing

[languid jay]

Mine shakes the mirrors

[open sigil]

but my stock system is perfectly fine

[languid jay]

Bose and harmen kardon hit hard

[simple bear]

This outback has 6 speakers

[open sigil]

my mom has upgraded bose system but all she listens to is the radio 😂

i wish i had her speakers

[languid jay]

Meanwhile you would blast them all over town lol

[open sigil]

🤣

i wouldnt even blast them

at normal volumes it just sounds so crisp and fresh

the bass is amazing

[simple bear]

I listen to whatever music I'm in the mood for

[open sigil]

it just sounds so clear and raw

[simple bear]

Metal, rock, etc

[open sigil]

hard tod escribe

[simple bear]

And it's loud

[languid jay]

I have 3 bose systems at my house I know what is good and not lol

And now I own a custom Klipsch setup and it gets pretty loud

[open sigil]

i keep my bass on stock levels because a lot of it comes down to how the songs themselves are mixed. some songs sound good and the others just make everything rattle

[languid jay]

I have mine set to a rock profile to get the bass a little more power

[open sigil]

i have my system all stock but bass enhancer is turned on for more punch

[simple bear]

I use the equalizer on my phone

[open sigil]

i also had to reset my spotify eq because it would make my speakers rattle

i just keep all the eq changes within the car itself

[simple bear]

And no, I don't have Atmos on

Well, not for music

[open sigil]

music also just sounds better on bluetooth than it does on carplay/aa

at least in my car

the bass is more defined and punchy

[simple bear]

Bluetooth 5.1 on the S22U has absolutely zero delay

[open sigil]

oh it will in the car 😂

no matter your fancy bluetooth on your phone there will be input delay in a car

[simple bear]

Aux adapters exist in that case

Because no aux port

[open sigil]

if your android auto is a wired connection there will be no input delay

but if its wireless there will be some noticeable delay

[simple bear]

I think I can do both

[open sigil]

it can only be one or the other

[simple bear]

Seems like it's Bluetooth

[open sigil]

all phones have wired and wireless capacity

but a car can only be either wired or wireless

not both

[simple bear]

Oh hold on

I can do both

[open sigil]

every phone can

but no car will be able to support both

im not sure why

[simple bear]

Does that external thing support wired or wireless?

[open sigil]

wireless

i think most external units are wireless

[simple bear]

Then I can charge my phone while being connected wirelessly

[open sigil]

it would be stupid to have to plug it into something hanging off your dash

[simple bear]

Unless I do the internal head unit

Then I'd have the option for wired

[open sigil]

Still trying to think on if i like this color combo or if i should do black with red text 🤔

[proud tulip]

I see you lurking Amusa

Also. Theres a trio of 6th or 7th gen Hondas all in a row at work xD. My Civic and 2 Accords

[tough torrent]

They pushed your civic at the end of the row?

[proud tulip]

Nah i was in the middle 😆

[proud tulip]

Looks so much different without that front plate 😔

[tough torrent]

The hood color is making your headlight stand out 🤣

[proud tulip]

ya well not everyone has millions of dollars to get cars repainted 🤣

tempted to repaint that new headlight to match the other one at least*

[tough torrent]

if you want to save money go to the hardware or auto part store and get can's of black paint and clear coat. Take the hood off the vehicle and spray it yourself.....

[proud tulip]

I thought about doing that tbh lmao

[proud tulip]

@open sigil changed the color combination. Whatcha think?

[open sigil]

looking good

[proud tulip]

I thought so too lol.

Should i add numbers to it tho? 🤔

[neat isle]

C232

[proud tulip]

Hmmmmm not a bad idea 👀

Its only limited to 10 spaces :(. C232 wont fit. Le sad
