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 this one was a good time. First one I had ever been to and it was very much so an event our school would put on. Poorly planned but still fun.

we have ours next week, but our school had the bright idea of combining our prom with that of a bunch other schools with people that we have never met before. Knowing our class, socialising with the others will be as sucessful as Jeremy Clarkson attempting to loose weight, but, of course, I will not be there to miss this disaster.

@vinyldash303 not reallly grabber blue, but as close I could get to it. Imagine the sun hit it at the wrong angle.:P 

@RevoltTrain couldn't get the wheels to look good in white (sorry) but here's the car lower and tinted. If you're thinking of getting any other wheels, just shoot me a message.

Anyone have any car movie suggestions? Preferably something with lots of explosions and stunts, but any car movie that is not part of the Fast and Furious franchise will do

our prom had the shittiest dj ever. he wouldn't put on any good music, and whatever was half decent was censored out, but we had planned to cuss those words anyway. our principal had chose this dj, but then again, our principal ruins anything remotely fun. fucking whackjob.

so my new job involves some construction, and my 1+ hour each way commute means i'm spending a lot of time dirty in the Accord. what's the best way to keep the sheetrock dust and grime out of the leather seats? any cheap but decent seat covers?

I wouldn't say so. Facebook in general is awful. I don't touch snapchat because it wants a phone number to make an account.

I like Instagram the most. Facebook gets reaally cluttered, fast. Snapchat is mainly for dick pics, etc.etc.

When I tried like 3 years ago or whenever it first took off I had to use a phone number in the app. I never made an account and deleted the app off my phone, then like a year later they had a massive security breach and if I remember right pretty much everything was in clear text.
