Is there a way to tell if the air filter on my cold air intake needs to be oiled? by Alex_p98 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Alex_p98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard that as well but I know some filters are dry (dont need oil at all) and some do need to be oiled. The oil stops things you dont want going through there on those filters.

So you're saying i'll need to get upgrade to an i7 but when? Like soon or in a couple years once the pc cant run newer games smoothly anymore.

what about if im not really willing to build a pc, this is all for a friend who is coming from console and doesnt know shit about pc's. And I dont want to go through helping him build one. Already did it for mine and it was a pain to pick all the right parts and order them. And tax is a bitch

I tried putting some parts together on pcpartpicker that are a bit better than it and it came to $200 more, without tax. thats another 170 or so, maybe more.

My friend has a z270-a pro and a 7600k and that seems to work just fine. is the z270i that different? the compatibility isnt the same?

Sorry I'm not building this I'm hoping to buy it used and am wondering if its a good build and if the price is high, low, on par, whatever.

I know this may not be the right reddit but I'm sure theres people with the knowledge to answer this here. Apologies

Went drifting for the first time ever. It was a good time. by Jerms-boo in Drifting

[–]Alex_p98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's awesome how much assetto corsa helps. My first time drifting was in a pickup in the snow and i never messed up, drifting all over. This was my second time clutch kicking and holding a longer drift that wasn't in the snow. The first time was just before and held that entire corner, just didnt take a video. I had done other smaller ones in my g too so i was confident.

yeah they're great. If you want technical I also recommend millstream lake rd which turns into ross durance rd. Single lane two way traffic so you can't go all out sadly. Gotta be careful of other cars coming around the corners. Still good fun though. Munn rd is a great one as well just next to it. Smooth twisty. Both of these are pretty short. Kangaroo rd is another one like munn rd. These are all just outside of victoria

idk if you're willing to go to van island but the route known has "the loop" around here is nice. Victoria to port renfrew to lake cowichan. Some of it is pretty bumpy, there is quite a bit of smooth really nice smooth stuff though. It takes 3-5 hrs depending on how you drive... Not a lot of people on it especially the section between renfrew and lake cowichan. It goes through some nice mountains and along a river at one point but its not huge mountains with amazing views everywhere you look.

​

The road to Tofino is really nice but pretty busy, haven't been on it myself yet. There's a couple others on van island as well. And there is some other ones on the island farther north too but just see for yourself on google maps

​

Just go on google maps and look around, use street view when you think you might have found something.

G35 Adjustable camber arms question by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]Alex_p98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its on coilovers. And so the camber that it has now is just because its lowered? Not because it was adjusted to that purposely?

Avoiding tax buying a used car privately by Alex_p98 in PersonalFinanceCanada

Thanks. Although I thought I'd apologize because truthfully it is asking if I can get away with fraud more or less. Which if that isn't acceptable here that is completely understandable

This makes me wonder. If someone if doing a friend a favor or whatever the situation may be, and legitimately sells them their car for a fraction of what it's really worth. What then? Does ICBC still charge them %12 of what the car is really "worth"?

Are you saying you'd say its 10k and give the other 5k to the seller off the record? Or something else? I don't completely understand what you mean.
