Stock is fucking gay - especially in those cars. Every fuck head with out of state plates will chuck a rev and blast past you. Evo's offer zero driver experience when stock. I miss mine but I'm also in a non-communist state. Meth injected PT6266 running on ethanol.

STAY OFF MY FUCKING LAWN!

I mean, it goes both ways. Something about chasing horsepower and cock size, and something about being a refined gentleman that restores cars.

Does suspension and wheels not count? Come on. I once bought some anodized dress-up bolts as well.

No I didn't.

We are looking at possibly moving out of state so maybe someday, but for now I'm enjoying not smelling exhaust fumes and dealing with tickets/smog difficulties

...oh so it's okay when YOU don't modify your shit. I c u, m8.

At the end of the day, at least I'm not writing this shit for SH and trying to get you to believe it's interesting.

"CUBE has designed this knob with extra mass – 153.5gm total weight – to help increase the inertia at the top of the pivot. This added to the equation helps makes shifting all the more seamless when compared to the 81.6gm stock ER34 shift knob."

Lol minor, tasteful and OEM+ modifications are acceptable. I drive like an old man now so 300hp is plenty

BryanSayWhat · 03-02-2020, 08:20 PM

The whole "you can't have fun in a stock Evo/ STI" thing is becoming really cliche these days...

Well good news. They don't even make that at the crank. You'll be lucky to be over 230 after all that drivetrain loss. Boiiiiiiiiiiiiii, enjoy.

I wasn't kidding about checking the subframes. They're known for rotting off. Ask me how I know that [then revert to one of the earlier statements where I have vast experience with them including an EVO 1 on it's way].

OBEEWON · 03-03-2020, 07:30 AM

The older I get the more I appreciate mostly stock cars. I put so many mufflers and resonators on my SC it's like Prius quiet. But I don't have migraines after drift days anymore.

jedi03 · 03-03-2020, 08:26 AM

agreed on the quiet...also back support and softer suspension...got coils just so I could go softer than oem on my sti lol...buddy moved over to prius' (pri'ii?) and he loves it...I am looking at tesla's but don't like the idea of being so disconnected from the driving experience...

collegekid · 03-03-2020, 10:10 AM

Can you guys help me choose a ride on lawnmower?
Also, I feel like I am striking my irons incorrectly, please advise.
Viagra or Cialis?

OBEEWON · 03-03-2020, 10:57 AM

12 year old me would punch me in the grundel for being so old.
Nothing worse than trying to get out of a slammed car after leg day though.
Saw an old man laughing at me rolling out of my car onto the ground at Wawa.

SupaDoopa · 03-03-2020, 11:08 AM

Pruis/Tesla are logical. If you're looking for logical, practical and comfortable while having driving experience, break your fucking finger, sit on a hospital bed and play simulators with actuators. You can't get everything you want, turd.

I'm not one to preach for a community I have no ties to, but there's a ton of homophobic vibes coming out of one corner of this thread.

Bro, stick to yelling at yourself in the mirror. Stop burning out the chill spot.

*Initial Drift* · 03-04-2020, 01:46 AM

Im not a fan of bolt on or self tapped wide body, stupid low stance, 3% tire contact, fart can/straight pipe exhaust.
Though I would also say that moving to a newer more readily available engine isnt bad. So I cant really say where that puts me.

But having a nice reliable (at least semi reliable) daily that is comfortable to drive for long times in shitty traffic is a must in socal. If Tesla's weren't so expensive a d I had a nice place to charge mine at home and work. I would definitely consider them.

I'm kind of stoked about the potential of electronic conversions as well. Seems like it could be lots of fun.

i think about this a lot. i have a couple friends who work for various ev companies and are always posting ev swap kits and builds and whatnot. seems pretty cool and fun enough. definitely the way of the future, but i’m just scared there won’t be the same raw thrill of being strapped to something with thousands of controlled explosions going on inside it... although high amperage is pretty scary too i suppose... maybe i’d be willing to trade turbo noises for the sound of a tesla coil arcing one day.

I've always wanted to make YouTube videos about cool stuff I do because I feel like that is the equivalent of VHS home videos nowadays, lol.

I do make some videos occasionally with no dialogue but I keep them private and share links with friends.

im new to the whole "car vids" thing. just been trying to document product development for those interested.

I like it, stoked to see the progression in your craft!

12 year old me would be so confused by my current car tastes. Some things don't change but I'm a lot more diverse about what I appreciate now.

Years of skateboarding are catching up to me whenever I get out of the s14. Caged low cars are not fun anymore. That being said, someone offered me a pretty spicy e46 m3 and a wad of cash for my kouki. I would really hate myself for selling it, but I could sell the m3 and have 2 wads of money and then get my life in order. I'm turning 30 this summer and I wanna have more to show for it than a stupid ass s-chassis lol

Nah, that try hard/ hype beast vibe only comes across as soon as the "likes, comments, or subscriptions" begging starts.

That, and try to keep the selfie style content to a minimum.

You cant forget the click bait titles, the 😱 emoji, and the constant merch plugs as well. Also the "if I get (random number of likes) I will do (insert action)" stuff.

I wouldn't let that deter you from doing something. Just come out with genuine and original content that people would want to watch and not something that Google would want to make money on.

I've been watching the YT channel "Gears and Gasoline" and they seem pretty good. Quality content with quality equipment and just enough talking.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OA3...A2T4jB&index=3

They even play classical music in this coilover install video.. wtf? lol I love it

That makes no fucking sense. Stop trying to insert yourself in what you think is a clever fashion to try to remain relevant. Yell at myself in the mirror? Honestly.

As long as it doesn't sound like a straight pipe'd Z, I am usually pretty tolerant.

Nothing is worse than the shitty emoji's and "I MADE A BIG MISTAKE" titles and shit. I wish if they got enough likes, they'd drink a gallon of bleach.

The problem is gay shit works. Decent content or something interesting is tough to sell because it has no drama.

Seen a few video from there (including that one), seems cool.
Last channel/show I really watched on youtube for entertainment was ROADKILL, til they left. Now it's p.much just car reviews from Savagegeese.

I think it depends on what you're trying to do with the car...

If you want a daily that can blast some narrow winding roads in your free time a stock Evo/ STI is more than capable of that. Now if you expect a vehicle that will roast all four tires in 2nd/ 3rd and can run a 10sec 1/4 mile that's a different story.

I mean there's people out there that get bored of brand new 200hp+ liter bikes and would call older liter bikes "lethargic"...

The joke here is that when you go out of your way to be homophobic it's usually because you're closeted. Come on man, keep up.

If that seems terribly clever (like using the term 'terribly) then I want to take you on a date. You seem easy to impress.

Man you can't argue with these people...and that's totally fine. I have a close friend with an R32 here and he's only concerned with horsepower. He doesn't drive like an asshole or try to throw revs and race everyone, he just likes the pursuit of that power figure.

I'm not sure how screaming in a mirror is synonymous with being a closet homosexual. Your dad must've really hurt you.

...the joke here is that most closeted dudes self-loathe in private and lash out in public. It's a common cliche in movies and TV shows.

Stick to Amy Schumer's fart jokes. Might be more of a hoot for you.
