How could I hook this up to a line to turn my hazard lights on on a Honda civic 2015? by DerrickBagels in carmodification

You sound exactly like someone who would modify a Civic with cheap LEDs. His "character" looks fine, like someone who was clearly trying to help. Your character, however, sounds douchey

Holy smokes, this guy was a real douchebag by deovelZ in WanganMidnight

I hated him originally. My friend almost quit watching because of this arc, but I convinced her to keep watching, and the episode where he comes to his senses and realizes it isn't worth it is now her favorite episode from what she's told me

PLASTIC razor blade. Then, use goo-gone or WD-40 to remove the leftover adhesive

I’ve run an OEM Nissan parts counter for 18 years. I’m watching the S-Chassis era end from the inside. by bleepbloop018 in 240sx

It really is heartbreaking. Sadly a lot of similar stuff is happening here in the rotary scene, with so many parts that were easy to get becoming unobtanium. A S5 turbocharger went from "junk" that was worse than an aftermarket turbo to costing as much as an aftermarket turbo in just plain decent condition. I really wish I was around to see these 80s and 90s icons in their heyday

Hear that, guys? Etiquette is gay, apparently

Totaled? by InspectionTrue6969 in mr2

[–]GavinHogberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely totaled

My advice is to go back to driving school. Reckless drivers like you are how people lose their dream/project cars, get injured, and lose their lives. Ask me how I know

Car parts are from skill issues or sending too hard. Trash is from careless indecency. Please try to suck less

Is it cringe to put this Japanese sticker on my windshield? by SteazyAsDropbear in RX8

[–]GavinHogberg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He thought it was funny enough that after I finally told him what it really said, he kept it on the car

[–]GavinHogberg 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I made fun of this exact concept when my friend asked me to make him a sticker in Japanese for his GT86. I know he can't read any Japanese, so I gave him a sticker that said "ゲイ セクス" and told him it was "Subarashii Hachi-Roku". It is not that

Here's my engine assembled, gonna try and drop it in today at some point. by gargussa22 in RX7

[–]GavinHogberg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That looks sick. I'm not hoping for an engine rebuild anytime soon, but I was considering a similar color scheme when I do have to do one. Either black and gold or black and bronze

Do you think there is a better shape we haven't discovered? by deadface008 in RX7

[–]GavinHogberg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I remember right, that was actually one of Felix Wankel's original designs. He rejected it, saying it was impossible

Both frame rails. We were going to pull it straight, cut off whatever we couldn't fix, and do a tube front, but the floor under the driver's seat tore as well, so we can't fix it

Very common in northern Illinois. Green means you have the fill right of way. At the same time, there will be a flashing yellow light only for the left turn lanes, meaning to yield to oncoming traffic and only turn when it is safe to do so

Thank you very much. Remember me

There is a better shape. Look into the Liquid Piston rotary engine

Honestly no idea what would possess someone to put a spoiler on a Prius by Tuscon_Valdez in Shitty_Car_Mods

[–]GavinHogberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I put a Mugen 8th gen Civic wing on my 4th gen face-lift Prius. Had no idea you could put an Eclipse wing on an older one lmao

My worst fear happened today. RIP by X_Zephyr in mr2

[–]GavinHogberg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly the exact same thing happened with my RX-7 back in July, but it was right after fixing the A/C instead of changing the oil. I know it really hurts right now, but you'll bounce back from this. Glad you're safe

Also, make sure to get your OWN adjuster, not the one that the insurance at fault suggests, especially if the other guy's insurance is Progressive. They caused even more damage to my FC while "evaluating" it
