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

My neighbor on the other side of me owns a decommissioned school bus turned into a redneck party bus. Man built a deck on it, and it's got a full Dale Earnhardt livery painted on. It's every redneck's dream

I always worry about coil overs, cause most the ones I've installed, the adjuster sleeves are really low quality aluminum and eventually end up seizing up.

I'll more than likely have snow on the ground until mid march at least if not later, usually how it goes here

--------------------------------------

 

So I just found out the (first gen) IS200 sold in Europe actually came with an inline 6 (1G)... I thought it was an inline 4 xD (Japanese version... comes with the 3S-GE)

Which makes me want one even more... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK

IS300s are quite rare here in Portugal. IS200s aren't that cheap either way. I'd love to get a 300 tho, but the only one I saw was a Sport Cross (I'd take it), but it was an auto :(

I want a SportCross so badly. There's only one known to be in my entire area, part of the car scene or not. I just want it badly. Wagon all the things

Snap on ratchet was pretty sweet, surprising how much quicker the job goes with that. Unfortunately it's not mine :( 

 

I've had the opposite problem on my rsx with it coming loose all the time.... I've never had coilovers seize on me, but I've also never had really cheap coilovers
