Is wiring your car for a sub considered bad taste? I need to upgrade my door speakers because they are shit and I was thinking of getting a sub to enhance the sound. I'm thinking a single 10".

>Is modifying your own vehicle considered bad taste by autists on /o/

Depends OP, what do you drive?
>>
>>16341691
It's not bad taste. If you want good audio, do it.

Just don't leave it unsecured. I bought a used car with a sub installed by the last owner. It was bolted down, just loosely flopping around. Really passed me off, but the wiring seems sound so I just secured it. I don't even care much for music while I'm driving, so it's just taking up space.

Life isn't a cartoon, If you're both out for a spirited drive and the cunt is riding your bumper then you can either be a dick and keep him behind you or let him pass and possibly see his mangled vehicle up the road.

My navy unit has plans to enter a soapbox derby for charity or something and I want on the team.

I've tried to google designs for the things but all I get are kits for sale and soapbox history. Does anyone here have any knowledge or resources to pass on? there's plenty of info on what makes a good CORR or GT car but we're not allowed to have engines

This would be the best shape for your car. This may not be the fastest car, however the soapbox derby takes place on a hill and as we all know going down hill adds at LEAST 100hp. This will definitely give you a psychological edge as well because nobody expects the hachiroku to be fast so when the least expect it you can cut your headlights and pass them in the cover of darkness AND reap the aerodynamic bonus of having your popups retracted. You will surely win.
>>
I'm pretty sure it's all about having it weigh exactly the maximum allowed and keeping most of the weight low and over the axles, which should be free to spin, but not wobbly.

How do I not get raped by insurance? I'm almost 21 with no tickets and one accident which was due to weather and I wasn't considered at fault. I drive a '94 Nissan Pickup about 10k miles a year and yet I pay over $2,000 in insurance despite being on my parent's AAA plan with multi-car discounts and all that jazz. Is the answer seriously just "Be 25 or older?"

>Is the answer seriously just "Be 25 or older?"
yes. Just be glad you're American. Over in Europe, they get raped even harder, over 8k a year isn't unheard of.
>>
>>16350530
BTW, the rates will take a large drop AFTER you hit 21 and again AFTER you hit 25.
>>
Uh...fwiw: accidents due to weather are still considered 'at fault' because you still made a claim and your rates will go up. Soooorry.

Here are things that will get you deductions:
College graduate
Married
Over 25
Over 21
Homeowner
Multiple policies with agent
Umbrella policy addendum
Front wheel drive
4 doors

Why would a nigger take the time to deflate your tire through the stem?

>>16350677
I don't pretend to understand how a niggers mind works. How else does a perfectly good tire go from a normal pressure to completely flat in a single night? Huh? Huh!?
>>
>>16350716

The same tyre? It might not be seated correctly so it's leaking out around the edge of the tyre, or the patch they've put on has not sealed.

Protip: find a tyre place that can find leaks in a tyre. It's a finite space. It's not hard.

Why hasn't the sticky been updated? Anyone have a more recent chart?
8 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
The day the sticky gets updated is the day GM makes reliable cars.

Which is never.
>>
>>16350473
because the used car market hasn't really changed all that much. The sticky operates on a 5k budget and the American used car market under 5k has not changed in 2 years. Blame Cash for Clunkers, which ruined it and forced used car prices to stay higher than normal.
>>
>>16350497
and I think the only notable change we could make would be replacing the Honda Prelude with a Scion tC.

It overall sucks. Not a lot of backseat space and boot. It produces 188hp in a 1.6L 4cyl. Also is a crossover, which are a disgrace to SUVs. Of the Nissan SUVs, an xTerra would have been better, only down side is mileage. My xTerra is pic.
>>
>>16350113
CRV would have been the rational choice, but she's female so she fell for the millennial design meme that is the Juke.

It'll probably be alright. It is Japanese, just the worst Japanese of the big 3.

What's a car that reflects the attitude of an up and coming socialite that costs under or around 10k?

I live in a big city and need people to not scoff at me when I drive them around. Either be neutral or slightly impressed.
