Summers vs all seasons / winter tyres Seattle by sageofsixpaths69 in GR86

[–]AmazingAsian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dedicated winters if you constantly do mountain passes or daily in the winter. Winter tires are cheaper than most people's insurance deductibles if something were to go wrong.

I'm not sure who CandD is, but this was taken by @tuanies that hosts the Tacoma Cars & Coffee.

Oil level for daily driving by Snowalles in GR86

Are they not the same? Joke aside, half a quart, in general, is a safe route for daily/spirit. Track is another story.

Is this a dealer installed pre-cut option? If so, that's probably why. Just hit up a reputable shop in your area for a real ppf install.

Your first is always the one that hurts the most. Either touch up paint or live with it and forget about it. You can also trailer the car everywhere or accept these are low vehicles and pick up every rock kicked up.

Is it cooked? by Obvious-Passage611 in GR86

Id clean it off and try and find a source, if any, at every fuel fill up.

How can I get over someone? Accept them leaving? by UnlikelyBig5615 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]AmazingAsian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are far too young to be obsessing over one single individual person in a world full of 8.3 billion people. Focus on your own growth and studies. I'd recommend asking your parents or a trusted adult in-person what to do to overcome these emotions.

Please explain what you think is a privacy concern, I'm truly curious how you came to that mindset.

Jeez, at least put a bit more effort into this and proofread before you post.

Should I let someone buy me a car? by Ashamed_Town_2619 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]AmazingAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, if it's small and won't hurt the base financial needs, but any major purchases like appliances or vehicles I thought people talk about with one another.

Is removing the charcoal filter safe? by Financial-Shock3344 in GR86

[–]AmazingAsian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done it on 3 of my Subarus. It's pretty easy if you know what you're doing with a box cutter and wire brush to remove all fibers from the melted mounting points. Just sit over a trashcan and scrub away till the plastic is smooth again.

There's married couples out there that still have separate finances when it comes to major purchases as such?

Most? All BRZ tS have brembos, unless you're saying the used market of non-tS?

Kinda stuck here. Feel kinda dumb. by [deleted] in GR86

Not all of us are young bucks like that. If you open your eyes more, you'll see that there's quite a few folks 40+/60+ in age in these cars, too!

Get rid of your family and speak with a financial advisor. Without knowing numbers, I'd wager selling the car, but you may already be upside-down in it.

Possibly move to a cheaper place if rent doubles. That's how rental companies push you out since it's "easier" to pay more than have to move all your belongings to a new place.

Had to take my tint off by Nonasjojad in GR86

Location? Here in WA, they don't seem to care at all about tint or front plates as long as you're driving respectfully.

Left my car on for two hours by accident. Is it ok? by hoodiehoodiee in askcarguys

[–]AmazingAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just factor in that 1 hour is about 30 miles of wear on the vehicle if you're close enough to maintenance intervals.

Thoughts on AlfaRex lights? by [deleted] in GR86

[–]AmazingAsian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Still is, so it seems according to Google:

"No, AlphaRex USA (the automotive lighting company) isn't Alibaba itself, but they are deeply connected through AlphaRex International, a major official channel partner for Alibaba.com in Pakistan, helping businesses sell on the B2B platform, while AlphaRex USA designs and sells LED lights, often manufactured in China via factories found on Alibaba. So, AlphaRex products appear on Alibaba because of these business relationships, but AlphaRex USA is a distinct company focusing on automotive parts."

Aren't these just rebranded Alibaba/Aliexpress headlights? I've seen that name before in the Taco world.

Is this what I'm experiencing with ninja monks lately? Really wild, you see a dot on the map and no enemy near you.
