>>15413699
I'd never pay that much for a car that has all the trademarks of having been riced and beaten to death. It says 17k miles, but I'm sure it's over 170k. There's also damage over the driver's rear wheel.

That's about a $3k car at most.

>>15413749
When are you going to bring the DeLorean to a meet, Chad?

>>15413783
When I get the clutch situation fixed, go through the brakes, and get 4 new tires for it.

Probably next month.

I also want to install front coilovers, an upper sway bar, lower control arm outriggers, adjustable rear links, and a better exhaust in that time.

>>15413749
>this guy gets it

Why would anyone in their right mind pay 7k for that, especially since they have a reputation of being riced. It says "Highway Miles", kek that 2jz runs high rpms on the highway. There is NO WAY it's 17k. If someone is really desperate for a manual IS300, then just do a damn swap, it's pretty straightforward on these vehicles. No custom work to be done for that.

>>15413813
Those assclowns on the everythingbutHistory Channel really did a shitty job if you've already got to get a new clutch, brakes, and tires just over a year later.

>>15413741
Sorry anon, I wish I could make it but I if I go I won't be able to shitpost on this thread while I'm on my toilet seat. Maybe next time, hope you have fun.

>>15413831
I "converted" it to a 5-speed; in the process, the engine lost 26k miles and the car seems to look like it hasn't been touched in 20 years. Though, trading cars or selling it would violate the terms of having them "restore" my car.

>>15413870
How would they even find out?

REEEEE

So I picked up a radar detector today also

>>15413875
No idea. Still, I did agree that I wouldn't sell the car and that I would retain the title for 10 years. What I've currently done is a lot like a wish from a genie; technically within the rules, but clearly not what they intended. It's remarkably easy to change VINs on a DeLorean, by the way. 4 pop rivets and they're swapped.

>>15413964
So much for "I've never loved anything more in my life"

>>15413968
I got a $25,000.00 car for free AND my pants stayed on; I'd have said just about anything.

If anyone actually wants to hear the behind-the-scenes details, I'll tell them at the next event. Suffice it to say, a lot of filming was done after the fact to try to weave a better story.

So this is a thing.

You have the same name as him, now it's make it worse.

So I've been doing some thinking, and I've discovered an issue that I hadn't considered before in the modelling of the Waseinburgerring. According to this site I found (and I haven't verified this using my own maths, but I trust theirs for now), due to the immense size of the track, and considering the curvature of the earth at the widest point of the track (The center of Montgomery to the center of Navasota), the difference in elevation using the same referenced location is as much as 363 feet(!!!). Luckily, my reference point is not constant, but it isn't always updating and it is not updated every mile (or else I would never finish). This means that the accuracy of the topology data can be off by as much as 77(!!!!!!!!) feet at my longest segment. I am assuming that the program I am using is compensating for this discrepancy because it doesn't look all retarded, but it also means that the topology data cant be trusted.

However, it CAN give me a general idea about the shape of the road. So I will be trusting all of your judgements to help create accurately what it should feel like when driving in game.

>>15420103

That's a very constructive point. I hadn't thought of it like that.

>>15420128
Think about it this way, if the earth was a sphere then the airline pilots would have to push the nose down in order to stay aligned with the earth, but no they don't do that. They don't dive the stick, instead they always stay at a leveled plane which proves us that the earth is in fact flat.

Basically, in short, we wont get true accurate elevation, camber, width, etc. without a laser scanned version of the track, and I can't afford LIDAR equipment so we are completely reliant on feel and estimations.

>>15420285
Perhaps you should go run it yourself so you can get the feel.

The problem with that is my knowledge of vehicles, by and large, ends in the mid 1980s.

Now, if we had a show where the goal was to pick three cars of different classes and have them compete in a challenge where the cars excelled when new, that might be interesting. It'd be similar to the Top Gear challenges, but the goal would be to show off the practicality of the cars, not to destroy them; something along the lines of these:

>Who can replace the brakes for the least amount of money.

>Who has the lowest commuting costs.

>What's the best feature of the car.

On that note; here's a summary: three individuals with wildly differing taste in cars have $5,000.00 to select a car, get it ready for a road trip, and get to a track where we take it out for a lap and demonstrate why it was a good choice.

Blue title in hand, lots of new parts on it.

I just got an Audi and don't need it anymore.

Got an idea thanks to Turbo Snail for offering a free AC clip. We should do some raffle prizes or give out items that we have for spare or know we will never use.

Any ideas for the prizes or what type of contest there should be?

Yeah, I posted before in /hou/ when I was excited about getting it.

Scared off as in, "what a bunch of bickering fags, screw this."

>>15424460
>what a bunch of bickering fags, screw this.
Welcome to 4chan. It's always been a bunch of bickering fags.

That's why it's so wonderful.

>>15424459
The exact route isn't completely decided yet, the time will most likely be at 8P.M. We will departure from Dave & Busters which is at Silber and I-10. Leaving at around 9 or so, will take us an hour to get to Livingston.

>>15424459
Whichever iteration of the Livingston Circuit we finally decide on. There's like three of them. The Dave and Busters is the one at Silber and I-10, next to the Edwards.

Normally we depart at around 9 PM to head to the route; before that we just hang out in the parking lot doing typical car meet stuff.

>all this talk of doing the next forest run during the day

>everyone votes for night anyway

I give up.

>>15424824
Everyone at the mini meet actually agreed to the Livingston area but vetoed the circuit. So.

>>15424833
Then don't go you whiny cunt.

>>15424824
That "circuit" is almost 4 times as long as the 149 run.

If you want to do more than that, ask people at the meet who would join you, you're right I don't speak for everyone but most people wouldn't want to do a long run.

Sorry for the late response, but I will attend and am down for a Livingston run. I adore some of the roads up there.

why you no answer phone

why no want $700 sc400 in time for the meet

Also, I would prefer a night run, I have no a.c. whatsoever.

>>15424908
Dagumi is diving in a pool of pussy

>>15424911
I really wouldn't recommend running the Livingston Circuit, or any leg thereof, at night.

It's a long, twisty road and there are deer everywhere. Even during the summer.

Fortunately since it's almost entirely wooded, you can keep the top down without getting baked.

>>15424919
Damn well.. Ive been cucked by the bodywork on my car. I will show up to the meet with a dentless door, but i will be broke lol

Yeah understandable, as long as it's not midday 100 million degrees out with 90% humidity.

But whenever is ok with me. I don't care, as long as I have fun driving, that's all that really matters.

Aw yeah, we up. If the 30 is confirmed non-duplicate, that's an all-time high.

The meet will be happening at 8P.M Friday, however if some people want to do the day run and the night meet with run that is another option

>>15425480
I'm pretty sure I've told the morons who decide shit on their own to stop planning shit for weekdays several times by now.

>>15425511
Regardless of even that, it's been said to be at 8 PM for the past month. We can't just change the time out of fucking nowhere 4 days before the meet.

FIND OUT NEXT TIME, ON DRAGON BALL HOU.

>>15425539
And we ignored that strawpoll because it was stupid. We set the details down weeks in advance, so we should stick to them.

File: 1462219822107.jpg (49KB, 640x480px) Image search: [Google]

49KB, 640x480px

However, all this shitflinging about the meet time aside, we DO need to set down in concrete the route of the run now days in advance. That way everyone has time to learn it, *and* can print out physical copies of the map. We can also set pre-planned rally points for when the groups gets spread out.

>>15425539
Well strawpolls are pointless in the end, many people don't even know what they want t-bh. The 149 was talked about thoroughly weeks before it happening. Nobody was suggesting any other routes, so it was assumed that 149 will be the right one. So the same case goes now, it was assumed that meet will happen at 8P.M just like meet 2 and meet 3.

Nothing else to address other than,

Meet is on Friday 8P.M, @Dave & Busters on I-10 and Silber.

>>15414050
The man, the myth, the legend

>>15425565
yes that why the first meet route worked really well. everything went according to planned times except even with eating at that whataburger.

people who know the route or want to lead need to be the first to take off obviously. cruisers should have their own leader

Are we going to switch to radios at some point? Or is Zello the final solution

>>15425634
Zello is the standard for now. Others may get and use other radios if they want, but Zello is the ground floor that almost everyone in the crew can use. Just make sure to wear headphones if your car has high road noise.

>>15425634
zello is perfect for poorfags
cross platforms and easy to install and use.

>>15425634
Zello is free, does what it's supposed to do, and justwerks. What's not to like?

>>15425652
The only problem Zello has is that it can get spotty at times when we're really in the sticks and the cell network gets strung out. Some key members at key points of the pack having the HAM radios would be a really good backup in case that happens.

>>15425677
theres really not much of a problem if we all stick to the plan and dont crash and die

>>15425691
Having a way to get Plan B out is always good to have.

>>15425697
No doudt, but we won't have many people with plan B equipped in 3 day's time.

Maybe meet 5, tho.

>>15425703
You misunderstand. I'm not saying everyone needs to have it, just that if the route needs to be changed and that Zello isn't working, enough people have it and are spread out that the word can get out and the pack can be directed.

>>15425716

Im going to have a radio by then in addition to my pair of walkie talkies. The pair will pick up the bao feng and the baofeng will pick up the pair, but as soon as the pair gets more than like 1000 foot apart the pair of walkie talkies dont have the capability of transmission and reception

>many people don't even know what they want t-bh

Agreed. That's what I've been saying since meet one.

>the same case goes now, it was assumed that meet will happen at 8P.M just like meet 2 and meet 3.

Well this is going to be bad, if half the group is expecting to go at 12, and the other half thinks they're going at 8.

>>15425754
Dagumi/GS/SC dictatorship when?

>>15425766
When they can actually get their shit together enough to buy a $500 SC400.

>>15425754
No, it won't be. Most of the vote goes for the midnight and also, strawpoll is meaningless in the end, the ones who are serious about making decisions will speak out rather just purely voting, On another note, we talked about this at the mini in detail, there are advantages to a day run but the majority won't be able to attend the day so monthly meets have to be strictly something that everyone can come to, for other things there are mini meets or special events.

>>15425777
Jesus trips.

And true enough, we can always do a mid day run at a mini meet at our leisure.

>>15425783
I don't why I get trips so often.

>>15425777
SC confirmed for Christ, and Spoderstang confirmed for Satan.

>>15425775
get your head out of the sand and understand it wasnt an error on our part the sc400 didnt get picked up by us.

I dont need an sc but i did want one. Other fruitful pursuits could be had. Hell i could even save up for a supercharger while the dispute brings the refund from rev's auto.

There are two really good bonuses to meeting at the Dave and Busters lot for this meet. Not only is the parking lot huge and not a tiny cramped affair like at the Happy Tea House, but it's also within walking distance of a Happy Panda, Whataburger, AND a Scholtzky's.

Hey so I had an idea, maybe we should meet up at the rooftop instead of outside Dave & Busters, the same parking lot we went to at the Fast & Furious meet.

>>15425998
Nah. We had security on our ass within a minute of us parking in that lot, and we were only able to stay there for like 15 minutes. The roof is far as fuck away from everything else, too.

>>15427155
That's definitely a '78 rear end.

I'd bet money that what you have is a '77 or '78 that was stolen, recovered, and had a replacement VIN swapped onto the car from a '79.

>>15427229
Could be, it would line up with a lot of how the deal for it went down. I picked it up out the back of the garage at Progressive Autosports in Houston, and after seeing how much better condition it was in compared to the last few I had looked at, I didn't really ask many questions.

>>15427276
That would also explain the radiator and mismatched engine.

Watch this from 2:20 to 6:50 to see exactly how easy it used to be.

>>15427346
Considering the title was by someone who was uncontactable in California (Which at least made partial sense, Olds 403 engines were used in Cali) and being sold on his behalf, and there was a request for cash which was about a third of the price compared to everyone else selling a similar vehicle, and for me to register the title myself (Which went off without a problem thankfully), and the fact that there's a tiny two core radiator that's way too small, a "rebuilt" engine, and a wiring job that I'm still trying to figure out, it makes pretty good sense. I took the seller's info and got a background check on him, came back clean though.

Still better than a 2002 vette I went to go look at in Kyle a couple years ago, which actually did come back stolen. At least this one passed cursory inspection of legal status.

>>15428431
>implying any of us know the area

We're all just literally using GoogleMaps to find twisty roads.

There IS another Livingston Circuit out there. I know there is because Dagumi crashed his Civic while checking it out, and it wasn't anywhere near as long as this new one.

>>15428455
Just doing a sprint, no circuits.

>>15428455
So thats what we are going to do? Pull up maps and follow the twistiest route possible? Ill give maps that... It works even with a hilariously low amount of bandwidth (boost mobile phone roaming). But anyway the idea i was trying to communicate was " who actually knows that area well enough to ignore the predrawn livingston route, thinking they can find a more fun way through that shitty, rainy area

>>15428591
and when was this decided, since the admission was that the circuit takes much less than 3 hours at a decent pacing

>>15424792

Im not making a 2 hour drive with no concrete plan.

>>15428629
I doubt many people want to go for a really long run, 149 seemed just the right amount of time for a run.

>>15428670
RIP Crosstour.

>>15428603
No, GS400. I'm saying that the people who "know the area" just did that on GoogleMaps from the comfort of their homes, not that we freestyle it during the meet. That's not only stupid, it's dangerous.

>>15428726
well desu most of us did that on the 149 run, I think Dagumi and GS were the only ones who knew the run.

I-10 to California run when?

>>15428808
First one to catch up to E30 wins.

Well dont you think we should have a crew member make a short course map, just like last meet, so we all have a jpg map we can reference from? And then possibly we can all do some research so we arent going in raw?
