Cucks of /o/, does your bull ever key your car? Seems like the absolute next level in humiliation, especially if he drives a really nice/fast car and you drive a lowly shitbox.
keying is something a cuck would do

I key the Porsche of the guy my neighbor's wife was having an affair with once. It led to him confronting the husband which led to them getting a divorce and moving out which was what I wanted because they were shitty neighbors that kept hassling me about not trimming shrubs that were on their side of the property line and I was sick of their bullshit.

>>17181529

>>17181545
Should I leave it idle for some time before taking off? Wont there be any damage to the engine?
Hello,
I recently purchased a Stick Shift, as my old car had been totaled, and I'm not exactly rich, and this one had low miles, good on gas, and my Dad and Brother both know how to drive a stick so they said they would teach me.
Thing is, they aren't exactly the best at teaching and often times start yelling or getting ornery.
The only issue I have is really starting from a stop sign or light. I know that you need to ease the clutch out slowly, while giving it gas, then let go completley of the clutch. Sometimes mine are very transitional, other times, clunky as hell, but I can still go, and other times, I clunk it out completely.
I've read guides, watched Youtube videos, etc. I guess nothing beats just plain practice, and I feel like maybe I should do it by my self.
There is a parking lot not far from my apartment complex, and I'm wondering if I should just go there one day and practice, practice, practice, until I can start completey from a stop. Even if it takes 3 hours or something.
But that also isn't the most feasible as I work long hours, and when I get home from work I just want to lay down and literally have almost no motivation to do anything. Even on my days off, I have to *try* to do things around my apt, spend time with my fiancee, just general stuff.
Also, I hear conflicting reports on when stopped at a light or sign. Some say keep it in neutral, then clutch and shift to first, while others say keep the clutch down and car in 1st gear. Is there a reason for this? Is one better than the other? It seems as though keeping it in first would make the start quicker, instead of going from neutral to first then going.
Also, any other tips appreciated. Once I'm going, I don't have an issue with switching gears, as most don't.
I also am pretty tall, and often the reason I let the clutch out too quickly or something is my foot gets caught on the clutch and between the floor, so it's hard for me to do that correctly. I try putting the seat back further, but then I'm further from the wheel, which I suppose isn't the biggest issue, since I have long-ish arms.
So, any tips, any good youtube guides, and good text guides, all appreciated. I realize nothing really beats just pure practice, though. It's just a bit of a confidence loss when I clunk out with traffic behind me.
What about turning, some say put it in neutral, and coast through turns, then shift back to whatever gear your speed was at or around.
Thanks.
Practice taking off without any input on the gas pedal.
It's a matter of clutch feel. Once you know exactly where the clutch bites you'll be fine.
>Stop light, clutch in, first gear
Don't do this. It's hard on the throw out bearing.
>Turning and coasting
No. Shift before your turn and leave it there. You should never coast in neutral. Ever.

What kind d of shit cunt country lets people who passed in an auto drive a manual.
Fuck off, learn to drive in a manual next time.
Last night I drove over a loose reflector and it kicked up hitting the bottom part of my door and cutting right through to the bare metal causing a nice dent and serious scrape.
It was on a state road and I stopped to grab it this morning. Is there anything I can do or am I shit out of luck and have to pay out of pocket for a new door + paint?
>>17180685
Could have been a lot worse honestly but still pissed about it.
>>17180685
It's called insurance, also, stop being a tween, you don't need to caption your photos.
>>17180697
>Go through insurance
>They raise my rates for 4 years or so
>End up paying 10x more in the long run instead of just right out of pocket now
You stupid boy?
how do you drift an awd car?
i've never driven one, but i might pick one up as my next car and i'm afraid it'll not be as fun
like, with ff you lift off and handbrake
with fr you keep it going with power
but awd?
i watched some pros and they seem to be kicking the clutch to lock all diffs and then kinda slide automagically
>>17180535
You initiate the understeer, let it get sideways, and floor it in the direction you want to go. Do not countersteer, or you're in for a bad time.
>>17180628
ye, this is what i mean
tried it in a friend's panda and the darn thing just wouldn't stay sideways
also can you "set up" an awd drivetrain to oversteer?
changing ratios and shit?
All I see is people bickering over which car is the fastest, most practical, fanciest, etc. Here's a question for you /o/. what do you think is the best car out there right now, any year. factoring in performance, reliability, aesthetic, practicality and cost.
>inb4 Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla
>>17180499
Fiat Punto
>>17180499
2007+ 350z. Best bang for the buck

Obligatory 911
What is a 2008 - 2009 BMW 320d touring with automatic transmission and around 150,000 km worth paying for?
On used car sites they ask for around 9000€ to 10,0000€.
>9-10k yuros for a 150km BMW that is 7-8 years old that cost 27k brand new
What the fuck
>>17180152
Ok, we're talking about Germany here. Cars are a lot more expensive than in 'murriland here.
>>17180142
depends if they have the upgraded timing chains or not and if it's fully loaded or has fabric seats 6k...15k
>>17180152
>27k new
U wot? Most basic base model or what?
What is this compartment called? Do they always close? I took something out of there in a buddies car and it doesn't close. But I'm pretty sure it was closed before I took anything out of there. Does it have to do with a screwdriver?
That's called a unilateral glovebox, and they don't close after you open them. It's for emergency storage. Some econoboxes you can just slam it shut though and use it all the time.
>>17180019
So wait, you have to turn the car on for it to close?

The autistmobile 400
I got a shitty citroën berlingo van like pic related from work, a white one with stickers and shit.
I am 22, work an office/technician job and make €2300 a month before taxes.
I feel kind of ashamed to park this POS because the work I do doesn't require a shitty van at all, it's just them being cheap bastards becauese this van is a utilitary vehicle it is completely tax free for them and myself.
The reason they give the van is because i need to transport myself for work and they give you free fuel and let you use it to go from and to work.
My other car is a 2006 mercedes c class, i hate the van, i really fucking hate it.
Am i being a little bitch, should i just park the van at work and go with my own car and cough up money for my fuel?
wwyd?
>>17179749
Drive the van, don't waste your car in commuting if you can, also free fuel
Stop being an insecure faggot and enjoy the free fuel
>>17179749
>wwyd
use the gas money for the van to pay for car fuel.
Dear Toyota wtf are you doing ???
Explain this shit.
I just want another SW20 dammit not this crap.
>>17179543
