I wish I could just get a scooter but my college is a 3 hour drive from my house
>college
lmao enjoy your debt dumbass
What
Are you not an adult with financial independance or something?
>>17154997
Not everyone who goes to university or college has a mountain of debt. Im taking a meme degree (criminology,) but still work 38 hour weeks overnights so I graduate debt free because I probably wont find work.
I still live on my own and have cars and motorcycles paid off in full.

>Dumping the clutch on a sport bike to get wheel slip into a turn is not something people do.
But that's wrong
>it can also be used to good effect on a race bike on the track, too
>>17154929
>A sportbike on the brakes with the unloaded rear sliding is not intentional
>Sliding in is a byproduct of going fast, not an intentional action meant to get the bike turned into a corner and around the track faster.
Also wrong
>Getting the rear wheel to turn slower than the back wheel makes the rear of the bike step out on the approach to the corner
>This allows Valentino to set the bike up earlier for the exit of the corner by getting it pointed towards the exit of the corner sooner

Wrong again lol

that's weird, wonder what this guy is doing with his foot then
don't think that's a right side shift bike

>Are you seriously suggesting new riders try to slide a bike into a turn like Rossi?
No, I'm pointing out that there are some fuckin idiots on here who have no idea how motorcycles actually work and will state falsehoods and screech autistically at anyone who questions them, even when presented with facts that prove their statements wrong

Very. It's a slow car already, the manual is probably the only enjoyment you can get from it.

It has one of the best automatics under $30k. Be proud.
Shouldve gotten the 860
What have you faggots never talked about Capeta? Like I have never heard of this anime before, and just one day to watch it, it is fucking fantastic.
And I would say the racing Is even better than initial D's.

I got to the episode in the beginning where he rolls the WIP kart down the hill in the rain, but didn't continue after that. I didn't dislike it, I just haven't picked it back up

It's a fucking anime imageboard, you're dumb as fuck
On topic, where can I watch Capeta or read the manga? I'm about to start OverRev! as well
>Originally called, and known through the rest of the world as the MX-5 or Roadster.
>For some faggy reason, market it as MIATA in America because it's the fucking 90s.
>Mazda moves to call it globally as MX-5
>Americlaps still call it MIATA
Seriously. Who the fuck thought calling it that was a good idea? Iconic status aside, you've got to admit that the name is incredibly fucking faggy and stupid. Probably why MX-5 can't shake the "hairdresser car" designation because faggots and closet faggots keep using that name.
How the fuck does Miata sound gay?
>>17154753

the fucking word begs to be spoken with a lisp.

yeah dude naming it mx-5 will make it totally badass and appeal to the average american male

1999 Chevy Tracker 1.6l. When idling and dropping below ~6-800 RPM the vehicle shakes rather violently and occasional loses ignition. Just replaced alternator and the electrical system seems to be fine. Any ideas? Fuel pressure maybe?
Did you try fucking with the idle speed adjuster?
>>17154909
No, I didn't even know that was a thing. Thanks
Besides the idle speed, any other ideas? Vacuum seal issues? I don't really know what I'm talking about or looking for here.

Hey faggots and car experts
i drove my honda for 8 years without once ever mantaining the oil, clutch or anything like that iv basically dailed this car with replacing the breaks once or twice topping the oil once a year and the petrol i put in there
so today it stopped working ( i knew this would happen)
was in the middle of traffic, going up hill then my car suddenly wouldnt let me put it in 1st, so i had to force it in
then at like 3k RPM i hear a pop noise then second wouldnt go in so i climbed the hill on first then took the first exist off the main road
my car just stopped going into gear for a while but after a while my gears started catching
so i quickly stormed home, thank god i made it cause i saved money on towing but anyway its home now and none of the gears go in
what is wrong with it?
something

>TL,DR: need brake switch kit
Brake lights don't get brighter when I press the pedal. New brake pedal position sensor, new BAS relay, new BAS fuse. Mechanic I took it to said he read it was tied in to another module - gave up and referred me to electrical specialist.
I'm not spending a grand for "electrical diagnostics". I'm searching "brake switch kits" and finding options $20-100... But I'm not sure what I need.
Just want a button under the pedal that signal the brake lights to get brighter when depressed. Brake bulbs have their own power. Can't pass thru existing system because of relay and module fault.
What kit? Will I have to run wire from pedal to trunk?

I didn't see where it said /o/ Sales Department.
You might have to see the specialist anon, or break out a volt meter and start checking wires until you find a section the problem is in

I'm currently financing a 2012 impala.
Cucked as fuck.
>fwd
>4000lbs
>resonator and muff delete but still no headers or fake cat (CA fag)
>automatic
I want to pay it off then take out a personal loan for around 20k (currently financed 14k and have 8k to go) and use the car as collateral. With the loan money I want to do a manual and rwd conversion (found a shop to do it), get headers, get lighter body panels everywhere I can, rebuild the engine, and finally get it all tuned up to delete torque management and whatever else is hindering the power.
If I can I also want to turbo it.
Basicly, I want to make the Impala that chevy should have but was too cucked to. And don't tell me to get a different car and mod it because I'm in love with the look of this car. I absolutely love it.
What do you guys think? Is this feasible?
>>17153878
That's my car. I'm waiting for the center caps to come in for the wheels (like police vehicles) and I'm in the process of painting.
>>17153878
Sure it's possible, but it's still probably not the best plan to run with...
No

Yes. But you might as well just own that and pop on a stick-on hood scoop for good measure too.
>>17153863
bring a ricer isn't a bad thing anymore. Being a stancefag however, that's a different story
Hell, I like a bit of rice with my cars.
