It looks good, but will it actually BE good?

>>17012469
Yes and yes. when Honda uses the "Type R" badge. they are to be taken seriously.

Nice stage 2 clutch

They were just launching probably. Unless they're actuay trash with clutch control.
>>17012036
half pressed clutch?
Are jeeps the quintessential cuck SUV???
>>17011861
I dont think you know what cuck means.
But yeah jeeps are pretty useless as a vehicle.

How the FUCK do I determine "positive" for these speaker wires? Apparently this is AC not DC as I thought so it isn't as simple as just checking with a multimeter.
Yes I know you can check the colors of the wires on the stock wiring harness, problem is, multiple sources quote different things for a 2000 explorer. Also metras wire harness that is used to quickly and easily hook up aftermarket speakers is known to reverse polarities because of a manufacturing defect they they refuse to acknowledge.
My autism DEMANDS I see first hand what the polarities are so I can know they are right. I had all 4 speakers hooked up and a subwoofer. the speakers sounded pretty average. The sub was great though. I have used these speakers in other cars and they sounded better, hence my wondering if the polarity is reversed.
TLDR; how do I determine polarity of AC voltage in this scenario?
>>17011738
Hook it up to a 9v battery. The correct polarities will make the speaker produce a slight 'hiss' whereas the incorrect will produce no sound.
>>17011738
white is positive
black is negative
black is always negative
zzzzzz
>>17011763
probably this
just hook them both up the same way and listen to them before you put the door all back together
if it sounds good you got them both right, if it sounds off then switch the polarity on one of them and it should sound better
>>17011753
lol no
Why are jeeps so fucking expensive
i just want a mother fucking jeep that seats 4 (not comfortably) and has a soft top
why is it 20 thousand fucking dollars for a 12 year old vehicle
why do the new ones start at 26k
how the fuck is this possible
why can't i find any
why can't i fucking make a thread no the image is not corrupt
Because the TJs were the last real jeeps
The JKs are mall crawlers driven by sorority girls and midlife crisis moms

>jeeps apparently go by 2 letter codes
sounds military esque

FUCKING DOUBLE NIGGERS
SO ALL THE GOOD ONES ARE GOING TO BE EXPENSIVE AS FUCKA ND USED
/o/,
Just purchased a Toyota Corolla S Plus 6 speed the other day and am already looking to make this thing more fun to drive. I just got a job that will allow me some expendable income so as an absolute noob when it comes to the mechanics of vehicles I've come to ask your advice.
I have already considered getting a sway bar to help the over-steering and getting a muffler as well as some cosmetic shit, but I would like to make the car quicker at least on the low end without fucking it up. I want to make it stand out on the street but not be a complete faggot and have everything under the hood stock.
The goal is to make the thing more FUN to drive and look different than the rest.
I understand I'll have to add better parts such as better brakes, clutch, etc. if I plan to do too much, I'm just looking for a starting point.
pls halp
Pic related isn't mine, but it's the same damn thing.

My miata (MX-5) is a piece of shit. It's a 1.6i NB from 2000 and it starts bad. It cranks fine, but it doesn't start well.
Here's what happens:
I try to start it, but it only cranks. I stop after cranking it for about 4 seconds. Loud bang comes out of the exhaust, possibly unburnt fuel. Crank again, it starts. This only happens with a cold engine. Warm engine? No problems at all. Does anybody recognize the issue? I've asked on numerous forums, asked a mate who follows an automotive education, asked someone who works on miatas for fun, but they didn't know. They gave me suggestions, like replacing spark plugs and spark plug wires. I replaced those, but to no avail. After installing the new spark plug wires I got an RPM idle dip to about 500 rpm at a stoplight, managed to fix that though.
Other suggestions I got so far:
- Leaking/clogged/non functional fuel injector(s), could explain the unburnt fuel that explodes in my exhaust system
- Something with my ECU, bad mapping or something so that it runs a rich blend at start with a cold engine (don't know all that much about this to be honest)
- (too much) fuel stuck on top of the piston
So this guy who works on miatas for fun told me to crank it once and when it doesn't start, pull the spark plugs out and see if they are covered in fuel. If they are, then that could be another clue in resolving my issue.
I honestly don't know what to do anymore. Please help.
Pic related: it's my yellow little shit
>>17010671
beautiful NB anon
while I can't help you, if you can't find help on here, I suggest trying out miata.net or clubroadster as they are miata specific forums
>>17010712
Tried miata.net already.
Is there any way to win?

This car exists purely so dodge can squeeze every drop out of the "FASTEST DRAG CAR WOOOAH" meme marketing campaign to try and make it a halo car, hoping it'll bleed to the rest of the brand.
This car doesn't need to exist and anyone who buys it is a tool
>>17009777
Nice trips.
>>"derp Tesla is better"
Except the P100D is slower.
>>"hahaha can't turn"
It wasn't designed for turning - it's not a Z/28, and it's not trying to be one either.
>>17009786
>This car doesn't need to exist
It's called the bill of rights, not the bill of needs.
>>17009827
Bill of rights not bill or needs is kind of a stupid meme, it's not your right to have a demon, but it's definitely a want.
Just what the fuck is wrong with bmw drivers? Why are they so fuckin retarded?
...Every day, seriously?
How do you people even have time for this?
go do something with your life man!
>>17009772
Its easy to do cause their is a lot of people who hate bmws & their drivers.
i'll ask once more: why are poorfags and shitbox owners so obsessed with BMW drivers, besides sour grapes?
Does snoop dogg like datsuns?
Haha, that album.
Many joints where blazed.
I think he likes chebbys :^)
>>17009765
Why he have a datsun for his first car if the dude likes chevys and cadillacs?
>>17009882
Cause they were cheap.
Cars that haunt your dreams thread?
Pic related. I live in a very "merica made only!" area and saw one yesterday. Can't stop thinking about it

On a similar vein, a 500 Abarth haunts my dreams with its glorious fart noise.

I want one so bad. They're dirt cheap as well...
It's one of those threads...

I'll give it a rate/10 that's the best I can do
Not bad mate. I started with one of those montero sport 5 speed. They save so much gas.
Have one of these 5 speed awd
Runs great. Rate
This is it.

It is almost identical to the concept, inside and out.
Its over for the Escalade
I did up an insurance quote for pic related in Arizona.
Two options were:
1) $300 per year for what must be minimum required by law and didn't appear to cover anything (Stolen? Too bad! Crash? Too bad!)
2) $9,000 per year (yeah, thousand) with the only change to the quote being it's collision coverage for purchased price/value.
What do you guys do for insurance?
It shouldn't cost $9,000 to protect myself against loss of a $15,000 bike and that price suggests they are guaranteeing I'm dead within 18 months.
Trying not to rant, but in Australia I had a ZX12R insured for $10,000,000 liability (the norm in Australia) and full replacement value for about $600 per year. That was 1.5 years ago.
Don't buy something you can't afford then faggot
>>17001249
Some companies give out retarded quotes. Get more than a single quote.
How old are you? Ticket / accident history? Are you a guy? How long have you been riding? Did you take that MSF course? All that shit can effect the quote.
But that sounds fucking retardedly high. Go do another quote right now and compare.
>>17001249
Also, do you live in a hellhole ghetto? If theft is crazy common, especially with that specific model, then it'll kick it way high
