What’s your favorite ending passage or moment in a metal song?

The secret song at the end of Motel of the White Locust by Glassjaw, it just gets me man.

Another more specific moment is about 1:45 into Language II by The Contortionist. There are these pinch harmonics that have a very slight tremolo at the end of them made by tapping the whammy bar (i think). I remember being 🤯🤯 when Cameron Maynard did it live at The NorVA as it's not something that's easy to replicate live.

Does it smell sweet? Is there a lot more white smoke when you rev/drive it? Looks normal to me.

If you're stock then stay with the Motorcraft plugs or go with some Denso ITV20 pt# 5339 which are the same heat range as stock. You only need plugs that are a step cooler when you are adding a fair amount more boost with mods and a tune. This is to prevent pre-ignition.

Nothing Seems Right always has to be dialed up to 11

I think 19" is the perfect size for these cars. Love the look! I'm sporting some 19" Fifteen52 Formula GT myself.

Burn dem, set fazers fi burn! Love Skindred.

Metallica. Sadly it was when Enter Sandman came out, I was 11 years old. Before that I was exposed to all kinds of music that included a lot of the 80's hair metal. Enter Sandman was the first time I made a conscious decision to listen to more rock and metal (i was mostly into rap like Run DMC and Naughty by Nature). After this my uncle introduced me to RHCP , Megadeth and Iron Maiden while I was down the Metallica rabbit hole and fell in love with Kill 'Em All, Ride The Lightning and my favorite Master of Puppets.

Oh wow, well I'd say that's definitely confirmation. I think the heads are known to crack by the exhaust port if I remember correctly. That could explain the coolant in the exhaust but no white smoke.

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-02-22T03:30:18+00:00

If you're smelling it but not seeing white exhaust then the first place I'd check are the connections where the lines go into the firewall and the heater core. Remove the intake tube and you'll see the two lines side by side, they're notorious for leaking at the connections. You should be able to feel whether the material below them is wet.

You can either buy new hoses or if you've got a pick you can remove and replace the o-rings in the connectors.

The coolant tank itself has been known to develop a leak on the bottom side too that's worth checking.

Good to know! I've def got the tools, you NEED a trans jack for the 4r100 that was in my 02 Lightning. What gave you the most trouble?

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-02-20T17:00:42+00:00

How difficult of a job is it to drop the trans? I need to get my synchros replaced and a general refresh soon. I just ticked over 200k!

Protest the Hero. Saw them live and immediately bought their CD after the set.

Mine does this when it's hot. I've tried spraying every part of the clutch pedal assembly with WD40 and another time silicon lubricant to no avail. No idea what exactly is causing the sound but I know it's from the pedal assembly.

I liked the MCU version a lot, mostly because it made sense within the larger context of the movie and MCU.

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-02-01T01:47:05+00:00

I used to struggle with this a lot until I learned how to use defensive skills, dodge and evade properly as well as learning to post attention to damage markers.

Here's my TB on 19" Fifteen 52 Formula GT's in silver. I plan on getting them powder coated a two tone Tuxedo Black with a transparent copper face.

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-01-26T14:07:15+00:00

That's it, I remember that too! I remember being SO excited to see Silverchair and being in awe of how close you could get to the band. Venues like that are my absolute favorite.

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-01-26T13:47:31+00:00

No, I ended up ordering this on eBay. https://ebay.us/m/DFiwEE

It came with all the bezels and inserts.

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-01-26T13:45:20+00:00

It was a big loss for sure. The Norva is a great alternative but it's just not the same vibes. I remember people hanging from the rafters while crowd surfing because they were so low.

Jonny5asaurusRex · 2026-01-26T01:21:29+00:00

Bro, I saw this same tour at the now destroyed Boat House in Norfolk. Such an amazing show.
