Hey /o/,

So I got in an accident on Monday night, I was travelling eastbound on a three lane street passing under the highway when I was hit by another driver at an intersection. They were turning south to get on the onramp to the highway. Knocked into me between the driver's side backdoor and the back wheel well. Deployed the side airbag and generally turned a great day into shit. Spoke with the field rep and he's estimating it'll be a total loss, I've never dealt with this shit before. Wat do?

Here's where I got hit. More to follow.

This is their SUV. Apparently we both had the green light but she had no arrow (so she was at fault) as well as had a few beers a few hours before but was determined sober three field sobriety tests later.

If she was at fault and you had full coverage insurance then basically you'll be fine. Don't be so quick to squeeze your cheeks.

All BMW ever does is take a GT3 car and change the underbody air channels, and wing size and calls it a GTE car.

Does this ever produce a win?

How the fuck can you complain about that?

You fuckers usually complain about racecars being way to different from the original, to the point where it might as well be a different car.

And now you complain about a car being not different

Hey /o/. The previous owner of my '70 Skylark had ripped out the horn wiring from the steering column for some reason. How do I route new wiring through the steering column? Do I need to disassemble the column?

>>13893702
Top jej... It's my daily and I often get cut off by terrible drivers who won't bother to look in their side view mirror. Almost got into an accident because of this. Figured I probably need a horn soon.
>>
>>13893677
Clean Skylark anon. Yes, you will have to remove the coulmn unless the shroud is 2 piece ( I doubt it). About the only other way it may be possible is a thin metal rod ran up from the bottom with the wiring attached.

I'm curious, what's the fastest thing you guys have ever been in/on? It can be a quick 0-60, top speed, motorcycle, etc. Who's was it and were you driving? Let me know!

Now that the 2016 Civic coupe has been revealed...

Anyone else waiting for the new Civic Si? Only thing I don't like about the coupe is the rear, but maybe they'll clean that up a bit for the Si. Really liking the fastback roof line and longer hood.

does anyone have any suggestions for a tasteful headunit or speakers for a car? the last owner put in a ricey headunit that sticks out like a sore thumb.

i've heard kicker CS series are pretty good and durable. i don't really care about bass, but i want a speaker that is pretty loud and won't bust easily. i have 6's in the front and 4's in the back i think. as for the headunit, i would like an EQ adjuster, an auxiliary port, AM/FM, and all the standard controls. a CD player would be nice, but isn't necessary for me. any suggestions? thanks in advance
>>
Unfortunately unless you pay $$$$$$ the most tasteful headunit for your car is probably the stock one.

I'm restoring my headlights. What's a good UV resistant clear coat that I can put on them when I'm done?

I can't find a good answer to this anywhere and the top rated product on amazon for this is fucking shit and not even a true clear coat

RIP 1992 Toyota Hilux, you will be dearly missed. ;_;

Guys please hold me, I fucked up real bad today and it cost me something I hold very dearly. This was my grandfather's truck that I inherited when he passed and I killed it this morning.

Can we have a Toyota thread please?

Hey /o/

I was land surveying a relevantly wealthy house yesterday and noticed the owner had (2006?) Dodge Viper SRT10 in his driveway. After peeking through the window I saw that it was manual stick shift. When I was finished with the work the owner came out and I complimented his car. He asked me if I wanted to hear it and I said sure. To my surprise, instead of getting in in the car to start it he took out his key fab and remotely started it. It wasn't until I left it occurred to me.

>How the fuck did he remote start a manual transmission

I looked online late and found that it's possible to install. According to an article I found, the remote have lights indicating if the car is in neutral and that the emergency brake is on in order to start. What about the clutch though? I know super old manual cars didn't require the clutch to be engaged to start but this clearly isn't the case. Does /o/ know?

Only downside is you can't park in gear if you're gonna use it.
