Car Talk 4: Full Wrong Ahead

Someone here was shopping a SQ5 a direct competitor, and Johnny wants a POD. So you're :wrong: Johnny won't buy. But my point is, we still all enjoy the content. None of this has anything to do with what we actually buy around here. DFD only buys :truk: , :jeep: , :gorf: /hot hatch category, and th...

OT 17: DOWNTURN FOR WHAT

I have a craftsman box and like 400pc mechanics set that I grabbed years ago on a Black Friday sale :iono: I have the 400pc set, some crescent tools, some kobalt stuff, several milwaukee guns, and a bunch of specialty vw stuff and random items. This big husky box filled up faster than anticipated. ...

OT 17: Tryptophania

I recently picked up the yuge Daytona low profile highest end jack they have, it was a floor model they sold me for $150. The thing is nice as hell. I love all of the fun colors too. I will probably just get a mid sized rolling box there and set my little Craftsmen up for track day duty. I've had r...

I have the less nice version husky box I also like Pretty sure my Craftsman that looks similar was built in the same factory as the Husky brand. I only bought Craftsman because of points/deals at Sears. It isn't worth a penny more than a comparable Husky or similar, the build quality is nearly iden...

Car Talk 4: Full Wrong Ahead

I was looking at Tahoe's last night. Tow pig and comfortable daily. Yeah they are great vehicles... to buy used. I'd get a Desert spec one for like $5K and be happy, they are really solid vehicles and the 5.3 is bulletproof. They are a bit fisher price/C5-like inside but still nice IMO. Certainly w...

Exactamundo. But the car industry relies on new car sales. I'm realizing more and more I just enjoy older cars more so :aintcare: really. 25 years from now there likely won't be much available that I'll like, but hopefully I won't care then or I can make the C5 last. I'm not sure that this new crop...

downpipe is usually a game charger for it For volume yes, but very rarely for improved sound. Modern fours mask it well with DSG farts and other trickery and although I love the pops & farts personally, it’s all poop compared to a BMW six or VR6. I have a catted Milltek downpipe on my Mini and ...

Barneys Track Car(MK4 R32).. How do i drive this?

I went simple and for a seat I knew my mounts would fit. Sparco Sprint L. Plus the sprint was comfortable other than my shoulders not fitting properly. :neat: I looove my Sparco seat, it was even comfy on multi hour drives. Personally I find a very aggressive, fitted, supportive seat to be more com...

Small update on the R32. CEL came on a while back for coolant system inefficient. I order a new thermostat, housing, and coolant temp sensor. Then the car sat around a while. I went to do the job last weekend and realized I forgot to get coolant. Made an order for more. And swapped out the temp sen...

Turbro Miata. To ruin or not to ruin?

The Miata was down for almost two months after a coolant leak and then terrible wobble while driving. I didn’t even care to look at it, as I’m tired of this car and no longer want to deal with it. I finally tightened the coolant hose and found that some Lug nuts had come loose. Fix that up and went ...
