fine for daily/show/stancefag, wouldn't trust on track or autox course. If you use them (especially with low pro tires) don't be surprised if it bends the rim
>>
>>17220078
The only time I ever see people break cheap wheels if if they curb them like retards then bitch about how shitty the wheel is instead of admitting they can't drive.

I would be embarrassed to own them

god fucking damn it, I gave a ride to a guy I know around town and after I left him at his house I smelled a vile stench.
at first I thought it was the neighborhood and it was coming from outside cause I had my window down, but lo and behold, as soon as I park in front of my place I sense that smell again. So what do I do? I get close to the passenger seat where this fuck sat and take a cautious whiff. SURE ENOUGH that was the source of the problem. I'm talking fucking ass smell as if he shat himself holy fuck...
I'm so mad right now, what can I do to clean the seat? It's not coming from the whole seat but just like a tiny space on it. I'm thinking a carpet cleaner solution or some shit FUCK.
What do you br/o/s do in this situation?
also

>tl;dr fat (ish) friend sat in passenger seat for a few minuts and stunk up the seat. how can I clean it most efficiently?

Depends. Is it in the fabric or in the foam itself?
>>
how can you call him your friend if you don't love his farts.
>>
>>17220050
shit, I guess it's in the fabric, it couldn't have reached much further since it was only for like 10-15 minutes seat time max.
>>17220054
I know it's hard to get from text alone, but I'm telling you... you are seriously underestimating the fucking biohazard of a smell coming from the seat.

Working on my firebird. I ran over an suv (she slammed into back of car in front of her and I hit her) and wiped the front end off of my car. I ended up just getting another dd and storing the bird. I found a guy who has 4 fbodies and needs some cars moved around his property. Said he'll give me all the parts i need if I'll move some stuff around, may do that today.
Got the body bolts out of the old jeep and gonna replace them and the mounts.
Many projects that aren't cars also.

Need new control arm bushings on my shitbox, but the bolts are rusted to fuck because lolNewEnglandWinterCar. They've been soaking in PB blaster for 4 days and still won't budge. Shop wants $900 to do them, fuck that. I'm too poor.
My motorcycle needs a new rear tyre, but again, I'm poor and I don't want a shit tire that will evaporate in 2000 miles. I can't find Michelin City Grips in the size I need anywhere locally or online, so I've been riding my 50cc scooter.
I need to install a new kitchen faucet and drain pipe too.

>>17219455
get a torch and a air or electric impact hammer. Heat it up till it gets red hot then just bash the fucking bolts out with the hammer. Then sand down the hole and make sure you use anti seize

Apex Gang members and african refugee supporters have had multiple riots in Australia damaging many cars after arrests were made.
Apex == aussies
Picture shows an example of one of the Melbourne riots where the black supporter is stomping on the roof of a car. Hoods, roofs, and boot lids were stomped. Rocks were also thrown at shop windows. Ach, this board stilll has some errors on uploads. It didn't let lots of people post earlier, but now only posts without pix get posted.

My mom is selling her saab 9000 aero for parts, taking the advice from her mechanic.
Mechanic says he'll buy the engine (2.3L 4cyl turbo) for $300 and the transmission (automatic) for another $300 and obviously scrap the car for another $300
Is this a good deal or should i step in and sell it for more?
At these hours i might just get corbette v nismo memed

put it up on craigslist or autotrader. some ricer fag who can't tell the difference between a bmw and a saab will buy it for way more than market value
>>
Is it running? Could easily get 1500-2000 for it. Confused though, I don't recall the Aero EVER having an auto trans as an option. Are you sure it's not a CSE or...?

Because even if you total it you're only out 500 bucks. There's not a huge risk of driving it around which is relaxing.

It's weird, but I think you're right.
Something about it reminds me of driving around after I got my license in highschool (Even though I never had a little car like this, at that time. I drove a huge truck.)
>>17214821
And watch, this'll end up probably lasting me a million years, while the cars I consider my main vehicles will have shit fuck up on 'em once a month.
I have a pair of Wal Mart flip-flops like that, actually. Spent 9 dollars of them, 10 years ago. Walked all over the world with them. Meanwhile I have to buy a new pair of tennis shoes every few months.
