Has Lotus even done anything at all in years?

>>17262530
I don't think they've done anything at all.
There's a Lotus dealership on my way to work and all they do is advertise/sell used cars lol.

>>17262408
I envy the respect of my peers, colleagues, and mentors too much to do something like this whether inside the city or on the farm.

So the answer is no. I am not a faggot.

Stop making this thread, no one likes coal rollers.

>revving up to 5k
Lol no thanks

Eh. Do it. Car isn't front engined so not really major componentry. Worst I see is some electrical problems from squished harness somewhere.

DO IT

Don't use anything without PEA

Because its dangerous as fuck

Racing on the street is way meaner and more dangerous if that's what your after

Because you can easily kill yourself and a bunch of bystanders, its the most dangerous form of racing

Never, because Audis are trash.

>>17261647
I thought this lamborghini was more original "Lambo" than something like the Gallardo which was related to the R8

god you look like such a faggot

however the auto industry doesnt quite discriminate as much as any other job, you should take them out when speaking to a manager or interviewing.

>>17261586
I want to see the fuckboi who gets bullied by THAT

>doesn't know that slowing down is an admission of guilt

>>17261458
This. Engine brake if you must, brake lights turn you into a target. They know you know you did something wrong.

>radar detectors work like a time machine
Idiot. If they caught you speeding, the brake lights are literally irrelevant.

>>17260954
The base block came from the 50s, of course it won't hold up to insane power as well as a more modern engine. If you're shooting for 500+ crank you should be ls swapping anyway.

>>17261037
Daily reminder original Hemi blocks are still being used in NHRA.
No excuse.

>>17260954
The stock 302 is essentially a stroker engine and its stock configuration is basically pushing the passenger car block to its limitations already.

>>17260932
Did you spill anything

>>17260944
Nope its an old car chrystler lhs 1996. Under the car is a small drip of what i think is oil. The longer it runs the more smoke comes from this tiny area

>>17260932
blow head gasket

you can disassemble most cars with a 8, 10, 12, 13 , couple of extentions, a rachet, an impact, and a pocket screwdriver combo.

take it to the dealership for maintenance following the schedule they give you in the owner's manual.

sheer bolts until you can't sheer anymore
use pipe extensions to tighten them as hard as possible and then kick them until heads rip off
use gasoline as a solvent instead of "brake cleaner" since it's way cheaper
keep your engine running at all times when working on your car. put a brick on the accelerator and try and keep the idling RPM at between 3400 and 3600

the zipper merge and doggos are the only 2 good things left in this world

This has been the normal, courteous way to drive forever.

>>17259825
Zipper merge is the best way. It o ly works if every creeps along and actually does it.

What really happens is people dont leave room and block out people in the right lane. so everything gets fucked up.
