Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Yeah, it’s pretty crazy how foot they are for an all-season. It helps that it’s a pretty soft compound. The biggest thing I miss about them compared to my p7s is the wet traction. Those things were monsters, even with a 215 wide. Accord felt like it was on rails.

I only ever had them on the front and even at 225s it was monstrous and made a night and day difference. Want to get a set all around for the 9-3 when I pick up the new set of wheels for that

I honestly don't know, is it actually? Because the atoms which make up the neuron don't disappear. If you are able to identify where the neurons and synapses were, then you could recreate the pattern. What will be interesting is if we will be able to figure out the order they fired impulses to each other since we don't fully understand how the neural circuits work.

We do understand how neural circuits work tbh, its just there is no pattern and thought happens in multiple areas of the brain, not just the cortex. When you die however, your neurones degenerate due to lack of transmission. You need a stimulus to keep neurones alive, it's why you forget stuff.

Deep thinking leads down a deep rabbit hole. Kind of like link surfing on Wikipedia.

 

Hmm, I might watch it. Is it only on Netflix?  I'm old school and I don't have Netflix or anything similar.

I’m not sure, I’ve just seen it on Netflix. And a neuron is an electrical signal, which does with the brain ;)

Lol, what’s 2k rpm? 

 

My miata has to stay above 2k rpm pretty much all the time. Nothing below that. But it’s fine, it’s designed to do that.

 

60mph puts me right at 3k rpm I believe. 70 is around 3.4-3.5k and 80 is right at 4K 

Lol my truck doesn’t even rev to 4k

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

I'm finally done painting the rims black, but I will put a red accent on the Toyota logo in the center and I'm wondering whether or not I should keep it matte black or put a gloss top coat on it. What do you guys think?
