Does anyone else have this problem with there doors are really easy to close yet everytime I have a passenger get out of my car they SLAM the F#%KING DOOR?

This wouldn't bother me to much if the window had a frame but it doesn't and i cringe thinking the glass is going to break.

Is this just me and my car??

I don't even have to push my door to close it. I just get out my car and quickly move out the way while the door shuts itself. I like to think its an automatic door closing feature. Honestly only need to push the door closed when there is a strong wind in the wrong direction.

I'd never see a reason to slam the door, but I see it happen and it makes me want to cry.

Bahaha i'm the same. Heavy arse doors close by themselves with the slightest of touches, yet every goon that jumps in/out BOOM!

People that slam doors are usually one or more of the following:

- Don't have a car

- Cannot afford a car

- Don't know anything about cars

- Have a car with rooted doors, so they slam doors out of habit

- Generally people that talk BS

- Generally rough with anything they hold.

- Usually messy

I had to lol at this. I do the EXACT same thing when I get out of my V.

1. Swing door open with a flick.

2. Step out of the car like a boss.

3. Door perfectly closes by itself as I walk away.

Some one needs to develop the soft closing hinges like they have on cabinet doors. You know the ones where it doesn't matter how hard you try slam the door/drawer it always stops an inch before closed and continues the rest of the distance slowly & softly.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
