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

Exhaust design is important, putting a number of short radius bends in the exhaust adds significant restriction.

About every two weeks or so we get snippy and then chill back out.

Eh, I'd say about monthly. Depends what the current topic is.

Heeeeey, who wants to talk about wagons?

me. of course me, i absofreakinglutely love wagons. if bmw made a wagon version of the e39 m5, i would have bought one right away. i mean the sedan looks nice, but i want the practicality of a wagon. don't care if it adds more weight compared to the sedan, a lowered wagon looks much better to me than a lowered sedan.

We need you here BB. 

 

But to answer this question, because there's always the need to make yourself feel better and some people get that from shitting on others.

I've been cleaning for the last 10 hours and just ate for the first time since I've been up so today has been hectic. Starting to look into maybe investing in something so I've been talking with accountants and people of that nature the last couple days, been trying to get a license and job as well. Who knew being 18 was so hectic? But I'm seeing my all time favorite band on Saturday, a band I grew up on and their music got me through a lot, the one and only Blink 182, I really want to buy Green Day tickets but the show near me is in like 2 weeks and I can't pull that off that soon sadly

i'd actually consider the magnum srt8, if it didn't drink gas like a motherfucker, and it didn't come in autotragic only. ;)

I just depositied more cash than I've ever held into the bank and so far adulting is going pretty good. I didn't even spend a chunk of it on headers! :D IM ADULTING

Adulting is difficult, especially with the girlfriend going back to school and pulling 8 hour shifts everyday at Applebee's. But it's worth it, once I've got a car to wrench on I'll be way less stressed out

I'm so happy for both of their new albums.

You should buy headers. ;)

Autotragic sounds amazing. Though personally I'd go for a CTS V wagon above all else, except they're out of production I think.

It's a crazy year, Blink 182, Metallica, and Green Day all have new albums and are touring, Pokemon is more popular than ever, the general car / drifting scene is the strongest it's been in my entire life (at least where I live)

 

2016 has been great really, other than politically, but lets not get into that

That's true, I got to see some of my favorite bands this summer that are not going to be around much longer, like Yellowcard and Sum 41. It's been a crazy year, easily the best of my life, yet.

still needs a manual. and the ctsv wagon has been out of production for 2 years now i think? could be more.

You know what sucks? I've got tons of tattoo plans, but I don't know what to get in which order, some I'm gonna wait until I'm down a bit more weight wise (dropped 50 lbs this year alone, 40 more and I'll be happy) but at least I know what I want and all

It was available with one. Wikipedia fails me though, doesn't say when it went out of production.

I really did want to set my camera up and take stills off a video but there were public works people there so spinning it around a few times was a bad idea.

I don't see the problem with doing that. :ph34r:

for some reason, i lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks, even though i haven't worked out and i eat like complete shit (like half a bag of cheetos a day shit). i think that's a bad thing, or i just have some stupidly fast metabolism.

it was? how come i never saw one on craigslist in manual? and i'm sure it was discontinued, along with the normal cts wagon, after cadillac starting adding new models to its sedan lineup.
