How do I learn about cars?
I want to communicate with car people.

I want to know shit like car models, years, shape, design and brand. I also want to know somewhat inside and know what shit like what suspension carburetor even is.

Where do I extract these types of knowledge?
What forums? What youtube channels and other things would be helpful.

Thanks.

>suspension carburetor

It atomizes your suspension fluid for a nice even mix before it goes in the intake of your shocks.

Don't bother, they'll work out you're a phoney pretty quickly.
No one cares if you're not an expert.

I'm a 26 year old in my senior year of engineering. There is no such thing as money or girls or having fun. I do have a sweet 2008 350z but car meets make me cringe, and I don't wanna waste gas and tires to go drive canyons. Gotta finish this fuckin degree.

Just replaced the alternator and battery, voltage regulator was bad and it fucked my battery. Was suspiciously easy/fast to replace. What has /o/ done on their car this month?

I wonder if this means we'll get the Pajero back stateside.

I hope Mitsubishi becomes the de facto sports division of the Renault-Nissan Alliance. It would be cool to see the Eclipse come back and see the Lancer EVO return in style (would it be asking too much for a 3000GT successor too?).
