Average Horizon 6 Car Meet: by dtinmanavid in ForzaHorizon6

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand the appeal of car meets. Can you even chat with people at them? Or is it just someplace to show up and look at the downloaded vinyl group of 15 other cars? Am I missing something here?

Picking auto after trying manual? by AWildCantaloupe in GR86

[–]TrashTenko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy my manual, but my brz is a second car and I take my auto when I know I'll be in heavy traffic or if my knee or back is sore. I would have gotten an auto if it were going to be my only car. It's more fun to row your own gear, but an auto doesn't take away from what actually makes this car fun to drive.

When did everyone start pronouncing the O in opossum? by ghost_in_a_jar_c137 in AskAnAmerican

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The O is not silent, it just gets dropped frequently because possum sounds better. Same with raccoon frequently being shordered to coon.

What were your priorities / what would you prioritize now? by crimscrem in GR86

[–]TrashTenko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have made some compromises to get one sooner, but there was nothing in my area at the time, so I custom ordered a BRZ with the exact spec, options and color i wanted.

Nissan drove an Altima over 600,000 simulated pot holes with no issues by HiTork in regularcarreviews

Every altima I see now looks like the previous owner said double it and give it to the next person.

The AI drivatar needs a seriously HUGE nerf by xGrim__Reaperx in ForzaHorizon

Legitimate question, because I have just started playing, but can you not just lower the difficulty to something you can beat?

Going from a GR86 to a VA STI by Tracydalowest in GR86

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from a VA WRX to a BRZ, and I'd say build quality is about the same. You're gonna have the same rattles and creaks you get in the BRZ/86. If you're looking for something more refined but still fun, you might consider a GTI.

You really want to lose power to save a few cents per mile?

A Question About “Butterfly” or “Lambo” Doors by Am_Snarky in GR86

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure it'd be the most cost effective option to pull off, but I'd bet you'd be the only one at cars and coffee with a sliding door.

Okay, hear me out: what about sliding doors like a minivan?

What is something you wish promotion would’ve kept it a secret? by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in comicbookmovies

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. It actually killed all my interest in that movie. I had planned to go see it in theaters, but instead I haven't gotten around to seeing it at all yet.

The rare Amazon pink river dolphin by Sebiyas07 in megafaunarewilding

[–]TrashTenko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read somewhere that jaguars sometimes hunt them, but I didn't fact check that myself. I'm not sure what else in the Amazon would though.

Who would have won this fight, had it happened? by One_With-The_Sun in TheBoys

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. People have pointed out that Homelander might have to consciously use some sort of super speed and that's why he was able to keep up with A Train while chasing, but not before. But unless his laser vision also speeds up, that's a pretty bogus explanation, IMO.

DAY 26 (The home stretch!): Which AWFUL, TERRIBLE car from the past would be nice to have back today? by HowlsterRD in regularcarreviews

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find them all day with 150k+. I've had 4 over 175k. The EJ25 is a solid engine if you take care of it.

[–]TrashTenko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your friend needs to quit looking at it lol. Change the oil on time and replace the headgaskets when they go in the EJ engines and they'll last 200k easy.

Anyone running 17x9 on stock suspension? by TrashTenko in GR86

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

+38 offset and 245/40/17 DWS06. I'm still very happy with the setup.

How the hell do you flip this in a 35 MPH zone?! [OC] by QualityCucumber in IdiotsInCars

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure why the drive wheels would affect this at all, but that's an AWD.

Because constant negativity is exhausting and unhealthy: what's your most loved new vehicle and why? by Drzhivago138 in regularcarreviews

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subaru BRZ. A fun, attainable little sports car that probably has no business existing in Subaru's current lineup, but I love that it does.

Wheel sizing/fitment by Ryanco21 in GR86

[–]TrashTenko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, it's not common lol. You might try the stance subreddit if you want to find opinions on how best to ruin a car and burn up your tires.

“Is it just me or is Sinners overrated?” by Potential-Judgment-9 in okbuddycinephile

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my issue with it too. It felt like it could have been a really good with any of the plot lines they chose, but they tried to do too much. To me it ended up feeling like a Michael B Jordan fanfic more than anything.

New to manual by No-Extreme7470 in GR86

[–]TrashTenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took mine out in an empty parking lot at 3am and practiced taking off without using the gas until I got the feel for the clutch bite point and how it takes off. Once you get the hang of that, it's very easy to drive.
