You're supposed to keep your foot completely down on the gas when you shift!

>>15853875
Right before you release the clutch

I almost am at a point where I'm blipping the throttle as soon as the clutch detaches from the flywheel.

You can take as long as you want to rev match just as long as you hit the correct rev though

What's wrong with 70 mph on the interstate?

>be doing 120 in a 70 zobe
>Audi headlights in rearview get very big very fast
>as he gets too close for me to see his lights his entire car dips from braking so hard
>downshift and drop the hammer
>accelerate to 155
>Audi still practically in my trunk
>takes a turn and vanishes into the night
>slow down as I wonder WTF just happened

The speed limits on most interstates here are 70mph when you're out of the cities.

>drilled
Mostly aesthetic. Used to be better, but regular brake rotors got less shit.

>slotted
Functional, but may also wear brake pads quicker. Racecar, bro. Brakes are a wear item.

>does reducing braking surface improve performance

>>15853384
>do cooler brakes make my steel brakes better?
LOL op.

>>15853292
>Do old brake pads and rotors effect performance?

they're lighter so you go faster

performance oriented brake pads (Hawk, EBC, stoptech etc etc) are designed for reliable fade resistance vurses normal dildo pads. Normal pads can heat up and get mushy as fuck during spirited driving. Performance street pads are one step up from those, not that great for dedicated track use but they're more than adequate for street driving

But usually theres an offset, the higher the pad is rated heat wise, usually will be loud as fuck during "normal" operation and not last as long as conventional brake pads

Buddy has hawk HP+'s on his S14, were great at the track. During normal DD duties, he has bus brakes that were ultra dust 9000. Like german-car levels of brake dust

Jizz works great at fixing radiator leaks. Just cum into your cooling system and the sperm will find the leak.

Have Snek girl for reading

If you have an engine for it just bomb it home with the heat on blast and some spare water duder, it's a 4.0, it should probably run fine with the coolant at 300 degrees for 50 miles.

Change the oil with the cheapest shit possible. Bring water. Drive slow.

>>15853148
That's what i figured, i'm just worried about washing a rod bearing since the oil is already slush

>>15853168
Think i should bother? I'm not opposed to the idea but will it really make a difference in the 50 miles it'll be running?

Any LR/RR owners or former owners on here?

>most reliable Land Rover

The answer to your question is a Series IIA or III. They are practically unkillable, I own several so I have experience. Not the fastest things out there, but they will go anywhere and get you back every time.

>>15853089
What about newer defenders? Do you have any pictures of your series Land Rovers?

Bodyshell is double galvanized, so it pretty much won't ever rust.

Engine and drivetrain are massively fucking overbuilt, will run until the end of time if you keep up on regular maintenance. The inline 5 is like a 2JZ with 1 cylinder less, it's that strong.

Everything else will break though.

That last line is what scares me

>>15853037
Basically just be prepared to replace all the little shit at any given time.

...I'll admit I've become a bit obsessed with 5 cylinder Audis over the last few months as well.
