Mario cart in Tokyo was meh, thought I'd be as cool as Han driving through Shibuya crossing but I had more fun driving the Kei car to a few upgarages instead.

You f**king tripping m8

 

Driving around the city as a regular vehicle isn't very exciting. In fact, it's pretty shitty actually.

Did you not play Tokyo Drift music the whole way? Missed opportunities

Seems like decent value unless there's something inherently wrong with the Cruze that I don't know about? I think I had one as a courtesy car when the ute was serviced... Didn't have the leather like this one but seemed like an alright daily in the short period I had it.

2014 model $9300 negotiable, 2011 model from a dealer asking $9900 both black.

A non car friend of mine is having a late 20's crisis and wants to buy a 2.0L BMW Z4. Told him to research it properly as there isnt any other rwd convertibles of that age at that pricepoint and probably for good reason.
2006 2L Z4 similar price to NA MX5. Pretty crazy,but at the same time, its almost worth the money just for the cash youd save annually on club reg.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
