It seems like my country (Hungary) is now officially the worst place to live if you like modified cars.

The police and the national traffic authority are getting more merciless from day to day.
Our laws that control vehicle modifications are made in 1990.

Technically you are able to get it done legally, with the following procedure:
>request a modification permission from the gov. List the modifications, and attach a expertise that the parts won't deteriorate any of the car's original parameters, and the parts are made for that very type, and they will decide randomly if you get the permission or not.
>you have to have translated TÜV, and a proof of origin, or a bill from all the parts you want to install.
>have an official shop to install your parts with an expertise.
>take the car to the national traffic authority's restricted MOT to a revision.
(all these cost causeless amount of money.)

They are taking away titles and order restricted MOTs for the followings, as illegal modifications (unsafe on public roads):

>tinted lights (any)
>non original bumpers or splitter or spoiler or any body modification, even if it's OEM
>aftermarket wheels bigger than original (therefore smaller tyres)
>lowered suspension
>strut bars
>any engine modification (even a CAI)
>any engine swap that's not identical to original
>any other seats and steering wheels than original
>multi point seatbelt harness
>rollcage or rollbar
>exhaust modifications
>in-car fire-extinguisher
>stickers on whichever windows
>you cant even have a fucking air freshener hanging because it's blocking vision kek

The funny thing that they're always refer to that you can do it legally, you just have to stay inside the borders (from 1990) and have a fucking sheet from all of you parts (good luck finding them for used parts).

I don't know how it works in the states. Could someone explain me the process? It seems to me that various engine swaps and all those dailydriven race cars seems to work fine there.

You can do pretty much anything you want in the US, so long as you're not in California. Same with Canada except for Quebec.

If I lived in Hungary I'd get a sportbike and not play with cars at all, that sounds like a huge pain in the ass.

It seems like niggas still be stupid enough not to move within a union that offers free choice of residence and workplace.

Here's how it works in the states;
>Buy shitbox truck, hand over check to PO
>Drive home 60 miles with barely any braking power, no plates, and a howling differential (your experience may vary)
>transfer title and pay tax on it, receive plates
>drive it to work, leave it there because it won't start
>inspection goes out, and your blinkers start fucking up
>coworker finally fixes differential, slip other coworker five bucks to pass it with the blinkers going fucky still and you just realized the horn doesn't work
>drive it home
>Fix problems at leisure, if at all

It's hell, man. I hate this place.

>You’ll notice the lack of South Korean and Italian cars. The former is excused by simply not making any sports cars. The latter has no such excuse. Both Ferrari and Lamborghini are so terrified of the world’s most comprehensive driving-car competition that they’ve taken their ball and gone home.

BMW M2 Rumor News

>Rumours have circulated about a hardcore version of the “already capable” M2, which could bear the M2 CSL name. It’d be a baby version of the M4 GTS, and now German publication “Bimmer Today” has got an inside scoop of the Track-focused baby M car.

TESLA TOO SLOW

>Signs of softness in the classic car market come amid worries that demand for other luxury or collectible goods has been weakening. In the art world, pieces that sold for $100,000 as recently as 2013 are now selling for $20,000, and in real estate some developers are aiming at a lower end of the market by splitting luxury apartments into two.

people like this make me wish for a mass genocide.

Picked up this '91 940 turbo this past weekend to compliment my 245.

I listed some cars for the owner of the bodyshop where it was parked. He was a Volvo dealer mechanic in the 80's so he knows bricks well and they have gravitated to him. He also had parts that he said I could keep half of what I sold them for, so I essentially got paid to take the car.

It runs great, just needs some front suspension work. Left strut is blown, and that side clunks pretty good; already ordered the parts, looking forward to throwing them on and enjoying the car.

It will probably evolve in the same way as the scuderi engine. Professionals say it has potential and is pretty neat, maybe there are even some bigger companies behind it but you won't hear anything useful in the next years.

Any functionality offered by a truck can easily be beaten by the cargo van equivalent. So there truly is no reason to drive a truck from a utility perspective (unless you're literally throwing tools/ladders/other shit in and out of your bed regularly on a job site...which isn't even a thing since you have to strap them down otherwise you risk them flying out during travel).

It's fun to drive a big vehicle, anon. They are also loud and a little bit more versatile than your average sedan. I personally don't see the appeal but I can respect that people are into them.
>>
>>15868787
You don't need to tie down much, so argument is invalid. Trucks haul more, and the exterior cargo area is for messier loads.

Besides, unless it's a 70s van, they're not fun/cool to drive.

Bonus! Easy to burn rubber in a truck when there isn't anything in the back.

>>15868783
Pickups are absolutely necessary if you don't live in a city for work. People working on the oil fields, or in the forest have to drive down fucking atrocious mud roads half the time, usually with their tool kit, which can be anything from basic tools to a a full generator/welder/pipe working supplies. Nothing except a pickup is going to be useful in that situation, an SUV could drive the road, but you're just gonna fuck up the interior with all your tools and crap, you can atleast hose out a bed. People that just have a Bro-truck for driving around posing though, they can get fucked.

Thinking of getting one.

A manual operation mode would defeat the purpose of a self-driving car, which is to take the unpredictable and dangerous human driver out of the equation.

I need help advertising my new site. Its a service for car guys and gals to get JDM parts to USA for less than what other companies charge... I am using Instagram to advertise but I feel like it's not doing so well... Do you guys think it's worth to invest in the .com now and get it fully out there on SEO or wait until I have full contents then do it? Right now it's mostly just requests because I don't have all the parts uploaded...

I don't know shit about advertising but I would DM a lot of big haggard garage style youtubers and see if you can send them some free parts in exchange for a shout out. If they genuinely like the business idea they'd probably do it
