Okay well sounds to me you might be a bit more fatty than muscular

It is probably worth to shed a few Kgs then but you won't see anything improve much on the racecourse, but you will be much more healthier.

Listen up cunts, I bought into the Mercedes meme. C200 1997. No Balls. Replaced; tires, spark plugs, windscreen, wiper, headunit, belt, ignition coils, side mirrors. Oh and guess what, the entire fucking engine, some asshole left a rag on top of the timing chain and screwed the whole engine up. Next time I'm buying a fucking magna

Allright, Allright.
The old man and I were doing an oil change simple shit right? Dad loves to keep shit clean, oil, fluid whatever and guess who left a flany somewhere in the engine, (I assume it was around the timing belt). No worries couple of days later I was driving along and the whole fucking car shakes, stuttering like its dragging something that keeps fucking jumping on the road. Couldn't figure it out replaced half the care trying to fix the shit. Fuck it lets get a new motor and here I am

dont worry dude, shit happens

i couldn't be assed replacing a camshaft on my engine so i decided to replace the whole engine with one i found on gumtree for $50 trying to cheap out. I spent two weekends and lots of money and it had the exact same problem as the old engine; a fucked camshaft, so i literally got nowhere

If that young guy from Tassie hell bent on buying shitty riced FTO's and Subaru's with half a million k's on them is still around he should buy this.

guys something's wrong with my dick the skin's all patchy and red and it hurts like a mother fucker i noticed that the skin had been a little dry lately but after my shower tonight its like it's on fire

>>16699499
>cba replacing a camshaft
But why?

>>16699539

Sounds like psoriasis.

Image search that in conjunction with penis and see if it's similar.

Either way, see a doctor, you've probably got an infection or some shit and the embarrassment of showing a doc your nasty junk is nothing compared to your dick falling off or some shit.

>>16699557
I know what psoriasis is, and I don't think this is it. problem now is that I don't have enough time to go to see a doctor. I work full time and the doctors office where I live is 9-5.

How do you get a rag stuck in the timing chain when it has a cover over it?

>>16699539
Wash your hands before you start jerkin' you gherkin, you've probably got some kind of infection.

>>16699539
Jerking too much. Same happened to me the other week when I met the new missus. solid week of sex 3-5 times a day. Bellend turned polkadotted with red spots of irritation and the skin around the foreskin became teary and dry.

Stop wanking. Get the cream. But the pill should fix it almost by itself.

What's the difference between AWD, 4WD and 4x4?

or is it just an Australian thing to call SUVs 4WD?

>>16699922
Did it land on its feet.

>>16701171
4WD and 4x4 are pretty much synonymous, and indicate a system where you have full-time RWD, with a transfer case providing selected 4WD, usually with a high/low gear ratio as well.

AWD can mean a range of things depending on the drivetrain in use, but is almost always 'full-time AWD', which means you can't disconnect the front/rear diffs from the driveline like you can with a transfer case. Most of these systems are FWD-biased, with a clutch-pack or viscous coupling automatically sending power to the rear wheels only when they lose traction.

Because there's so many different variations of AWD systems, it's hard to keep track of how each particular one works, whether there's front or rear bias, how the coupling/center diff works, etc.

Rule of thumb is that if it has a transfer case and the engine is mounted longitudinal, it's 4WD.

will evo prices go up now that production has ended?
i'm thinking yes
on the topic of which of these cars are/will be future classics which do you pick?

>>16705021
VT-VF
Turbo Barra Falcons (Factory and swaps)
Toyota 86 (production will stop as soon as sales start to dip and the car is pretty old now as it is.)

>>16705021

Petrol powered cars won't be around long enough for anything to really become a classic in the sense we're accustomed to at the moment.

>>16705032

Literally none of those will become classics.

dont worry. stupid hippies have been saying since 2010 that by 2020 electric vehicles will make up majority of vehicles on roads
its 2017, wheres all electric vehicles

>>16705032
VT-VF Commodores will never become a classic, there's too many of them to be special and it's only going to be a tiny minority of people who do remember the special ones.

You're never gonna see Monaros or E-series HSV's going for millions.

Nobody cares about these cars in the big scheme of things. It's not like they have a particularly exciting story, or motorsport provenance or anything.

>>16705032
The 86 is the most G rated boomer / P plate bait. Never will be a classic.

>>16705050
i feel that petrol powered cars will be around for a long time before shifting to HCCI engines/hybrids/electrics and then finally to totally renewable energy cars. This won't be for a long time imo not for another 50 years.

>>16705050
Reclaimed carbon sources and CCS will mean that petrol power is not going anywhere for a while

learn how to do this shit yourself and do what you can if you have the time then have them do shit that you feel is above your head, but who cares if you have the cash to throw around then do so.

You just take them to the shop and get them to push it in. Costs a box or $50 usually. Ask before going in with them and make sure they will do it on the day you rock up.

I was going to get a roadworthy inspection list and do it myself to save the money, but my full license was coming up quick, today infact, and I got it back yesterday
I decided to spend the extra $1000 or so ("huur you could have done it for $5 and a chocy milk" ....no.... Plus scouring wreckers for parts that are always taken) to get it on the road quickly
Thats under an extra week of work for me and I wouldn't have had time to work on it myself without taking a holiday and probably months of it sitting there

I know this isn't /dbt/ but any of you guys from QLD with an R motorcycle licence?

I've had my RE licence for a few years (didn't have a bike for a lot of it) and it's time to sell my bike again so I want to upgrade my licence before selling it.

Anyway, what's involved in the R licence test?

Is it pretty much the same as the RE (emergency stop/swerve/slow speed/figure 8)?

Is there any theory?

Don't be a fucking pussy, but something fun. Not a fucking Corolla hatchback.

>>16710159
i bet there are chinks here doing the same thing here.

well turns out the ex still has feelings for me,but doesnt want to 'steal' just want me to be 'happy'.

gf and i have worked out all the guidelines for threesome. she doesn't want me kissing the other girl and she doesn't want anyone she knows and i have to choose the girl.

keep trying to arrange a time when we can all catch up casually, but something keeps coming up for one of us.
seeing the ex again moro, gf knows. she knows i'm still fond of her aswell, but is cool with us hanging out.
i think the gf knows what im going to ask but doesnt want to jump the gun.
so far so good. fingers crossed cunts

>>16710166
You've lost already dingus. You're gf is just hoping you'll use common sense and not ask your ex about it.

>>16710119
>>16710149
Aight will start looking at camrys, any specific one that's better than the rest in the late 90s early 2000s I should chase after? I have 4k can stretch to 5k if it's worth

>>16710183
what specifically did y'all predict, that is now happening?
>>16710172
how have i lost? she wants the threesome, she's been having dreams about it, and about it with the ex lol

>>16710185
If reliability and running cost is important to you, try to get a 4cyl one as some of the V6s had oil issues apparently. You can easily get them for under k so you're all good.

>>16710191
Thanks for actually giving advice, forgot to mention im after a manual, know if their gearboxes are good?

>>16710189
>how have i lost? she wants the threesome she's been having dreams about it, and about it with the ex lol
But
>she doesn't want anyone she knows
>she doesn't want anyone she knows
>she doesn't want anyone she knows

>>16710191
Only issues were sludging if oil wasn't done religiously, i.e. every camry. Otherwise 1mzfe is a great motor, but if you just want some tractorshit reliable commuter the 4cyl is better

>>16710195
sorry phrasing.
she doesn't want anyone she knows. but she wants to have met them prior to.
im not gonna walk in the door with another woman, "BABE, its go time"

>>16710194
The autos are good, not sure about manuals. Either way it's an econo box so things are going to be pretty soft and not powerful but that's the price of reliability.

>>16710196
This too. A V6 would be best so if a well maintained one is around, it should be fine.

>>16710202
She means at least have met them in a mini meet and greet, like having at least having met once or twice . A full fledged friend (or ex) is going to be a total no.

>>16710211
>She means at least have met them in a mini meet and greet, like having at least having met once or twice
yes, thats essentially what i said.
>total no.
then why is she dreaming about it WITH my ex, their fb friends so she knows she looks like

>>16710216
>then why is she dreaming about it WITH my ex
Because she knows it's what you're going to try.

are there any budget tyres that don't give off a lot of road noise, I have some old allrounders on my commie and it has no traction in the wet at all which I can deal with, but they squeal on every single turn matter the speed.. my suspension isn't fucked and I've tried my tyres on multiple pressures and it always squeals

>>16710233
Maxxis and Achilles probably nexcen and other cheap shit depends on thread type and compound muh dood

Stock 16" always squeal just get better wider rims as well

>>16710219

the last person I want advice from is you, falcunt

>busriders
cunt i own two cars with working gearboxes

>>16710196
>>16710191
The main problem with camrys of that age (and/or high kms) is the fact that the 5S (4cyl) and 1MZ (v6) engines begin to leak oil from every orifice, and oil leaks are usually time consuming or expensive to fix, depending on whether you work on it yourself.

Power steering pumps and racks also like to leak on those older Toyotas, same for similar era Corollas.

If you're happy to do at least some of the less intensive work yourself (e.g. oil changes, brakes, drive belts, coolant changes), then I'd go with the V6 because it's quite a nice little unit in terms of power and torque, especially if you're getting a manual - stuff like the timing belt and spark plugs will cost more, but you can offset this by doing the above-mentioned work yourself. The 5S-FE will cost less to run if you have everything done at a workshop, because it's an easier engine to work on in general, so less labor time.

>>16710194
They're alright.

>>16710238
Local mechanic swears by Achilles and says avoid Nexcen at all costs. He probably is an Achilles shill though because he has fucking shitloads of new Achilles for sale in little tyre fitting room next to the workshop.

i have a dilema

Ive built my engine, assembled it and put it into the car. I bought it off a friend of a friend for $50. It has a thiccc cam which is why i bought it for cheap, but im still not sure what the specs are on the cam

Anyway, ive discovered its a solid cam and lifter set when i got it running and had hydraulic rocker arms attached, it sounded like the valve train was being raped from having the wrong rockers

I have two options, should i replace the solid cam with an equivalent hydraulic cam + lifters or should i buy some yella terra adjustable roller rockers to slap on and keep the solid cam? im at a crossroads where i have the engine re-disassembled to go either way

Bought a 2007 golf, how to RICE?

Lol fuck it cops can screencap this shit.

>Be driving home
>suddenly out of fucking nowhere near my house this bloke and his wife (shes driving) almost hit me coming round a blind long corner.

I road up on the dirt narrowly missing them but not the stream of rocks that fucked up my windscreen and front of my car.

This guy is a fucking menace and has been doing this for years and i finally fucking snapped and did a uturn and chased him down to a X junction where he pulled up and got out of the passenger seat and without thinking just ran to the nearest post, i freaked out and naturally took off but he went and stood in the middle of the road as i turned back around to go home or just to get the fuck outa there (big mistake)

THEN what happened next is the fucking mad cunt went full mad max, grabbed a yellow Alum/steel star picket and ran out into the MIDDLE of the road as i came speeding back past the same X junction he got out at but going straight through this time, didnt know what was gonna happen so i gunned it and he aimed up this star picket and threw it at me (Big guy so it was literally rocketing towards us as we went by aiming at our heads passenger side) and it sailed over the roof and i kept going, ended up at a neibhours place and we calmed down for a couple of hours and went home im still fucking out of my mind

>>16715679
There's nothing you can do, there's no proof. Unless you physically have dashcam footage, he admits to it in a police interview, or has a long-standing history of similar crimes in addition to multiple witnesses, it will be money wasted. Especially so with a lawyer in your budget. Settle down, and think about the cold and calculated, non-spirited things you can do to him to feel better about yourself.

Should have bought a dashcam instead of that useless fucking lightbar.

>>16715725
bump

>>16715725
$250 is a good budget, $200 ballpark will get you a great cam. I'd look on dash cam australias site to find out which one is best, and do some research on the brands, before looking around. I'm sure you'll find a better deal than DCA offers, but they've got some good info on cams.

Whatever you do, don't buy the cams available in Big-W, Kmart etc. They sound good at $99 (mine actually had pretty good quality) but it shat itself a month after the warranty went. They're all made in china but try to avoid the dodgy brands.

Corolla wagon is to old and small, heard the 6 wagons are iffy, and I already have the final model of the Lancer wagon. N

>>16720918
Thats not all he sucked

>>16721023
well thats most choices out then. and since no euro, looks like you're up shit creek.

>>16721045

Which Euro would you recommend then? About the only thing I've found appealing would be a Volvo V60, but I'm wary of how much they cost to service and repair.

Fuck it, I'll probably end up with an ex-fleet Omega.

Gday,

im keen to get into drifting but i have basically no skills or experience doing so,

obviously there is the option of an industrial area or an empty carpark late at night but if i got caught i would be basically fucking uninsurable, its hard enough to get insurance now as it is a p plater.

if i went to a skidpan day to learn, not to practice would that be a good idea or would i look like a dickhead trying shit and wasting everyones time?

>>16721071
>hurr hurr I wanna be a driftor

Grow up

>>16721075

>grow up

have you been to any drift day thats not a matsuri/practice day? ive yet to see someone younger than someone in their mid/early 20s

Whats some cheapo beer on sale right now? Too lazy to browse and think up something I like

>>16721083
>have you been to any drift day

Nah m80, I'm not a dickhead.

>>16721071
Go to a skidpan day, they are quite used to newbies and frankly most are happy to see you there rather than being a dickhead on the street

I bet any money you watch ACA religiously and can't stand them murderous hoons

Alright cunts, im looking for a RWD 4 banger car and came across a 4X2 2001 hilux for about 3 grand, tell me why this is a bad idea.

Looking to buy a new car for to/from work used on motorway
Needs to be automagic, this is first car and i know nothing about them.

Currently looking at:
2013 elantra, 66k kms $13k
2013 i30, 60k kms $15k (seems high?)
2015 accent rb2, 40k kms $13k
2011 lancer, 125k kms $10k
2013 lancer, 96k kms $10k (a fair ways away though)

Problem is im one of those fags that like all the bits n bobs. lcd display that lets me know my speed is a large plus and these seems to be the cars that do it.

Please give me advice on these cars, which you think is better.

>>16721089
yeah even if i spin out heaps i guess most will appreciate people taking up the sport

plus the only large sized carpark near me is a 24 hour kmart complex which makes it even more sketch that it was before

>>16721096
You have the shitest taste I have seen in a long time

>>16721091
>I bet any money

>implying you ever have more than the 400 something dollars Centrelink gives you each fortnight


I bet you think you look """""cool""""" doing burnouts at traffic lights in your shitbox.

>>16721098
thanks pal

>>16721094
Slow, nonexistant ride comfort with nothing in the back, spartan interior etc.

>>16721096
This >>16721098

Get a manual Mazda 3 in that nice red colour they come in.

>>16721096
You're asking the wrong place, pal.

Get a fucking N13 pulsar and learn to not be a millennial with the same attraction to shiny things that a magpie has. You get aircon, you get a stereo, that's all you need.

>>16721118
Pretty much this.

It's just gimmicks.

Buying a car based on gimmicks is a retarded idea.

>>16721096
you a p plater? dude get a shitbox pulsar like others have said or an Excel or an AU falcon wagon

drive that into the ground if you dont crash it before it dies so you dont piss away 10+k if you crash if you dont have comp insurance,
btw good luck getting insurance if you write off your car as a p plater

Hey guys, what's the best relatively modern (<$10,000) sedan?

So far I've found
>Holden Cruze
>Mitsubishi Lancer
>Toyota Camry
Best one?

>>16721096
>first car
>automatic
>new and over priced choices
>terrible cars

Be honest, are you a woman?

>>16721118
not him but

>millennial

'1981–1997 identifying as part of the Millennial Generation'

>beng at least 36 and on 4chan

>>16721136
Out of those three, Camry.

Lancers are alright, Cruzes are trash.

Don't buy GM anything.

>>16721136
>Cruze
>Lancer
Just don't. They're cars for if you're a woman in her 50s.

>Camry
>Commodore
>Falcon
>BMW 5 series
>Volvo wagon
>Hyundai Accent
>Honda Accord

>>16721136

e46 if you can afford the maintenance

i test drove one of them for a mate who couldnt have a look at the car until a week later, fuckkk they drive smooth def would own one if i wasnt broke

>>16721151
i dont know why everyone doesnt do this. just buy a cheap old fun car on a big budget and use the budget to fix it up. theres some great shit out there that just needs some TLC and money.

>>16721159
yeah plus you get people who dont know shit about cars who look at the e46 which has aged pretty well imo and think 'woah a bmw thats so fancy'. if youre into that shit, pretty reasonable price for what they are

my first car was was a diahatsu applause, i miss not giving a single fuck about it because it was only $150 with a tank of fuel and all i did was put 6 months rego on it and bush bashed it when it ran out of rego.

every new driver should drive a shitbox for the first 6-12 months because if they crash which is likley it wont set them back fucking 10k to replace like these people are considering

>>16721136
Camry.
The Cruze is gutless and will break.
Lancer is just overall worse than a Camry.

>>16721099
>Implying you even have a licence
You seem like a massive faggot desu

Why the fuck do some words/phrases correct to desu

>>16721221
4chan has a word filter , filters t b h as desu.

drive my car 13 yo high km car
noises, rattles, heaps of road noise however mechanically a1(personally overhauled all the suspension)
drive any car <5 years old and im surprised by how well put together it feels. very stable, secure, no rattles, no road noise.
what is this voodoo shit? is it a difference in weight? my car barely breaks a tonne but these modern cars, even hatches are getting pretty heavy.

>>16721126
This, I hate those fucking overly sensitive revere sensors in cars that scream at you for getting within 200m of an object

Give me a shitbox any day

>>16721280
no shit cunt
that being said ive also driven a tonne of high km but heavier cars.
my thought was more along the lines of a heavier or heavier and newer car being more stable but wanted discussion on it
