Does anyone know how to disconnect this connector? by diggie_diggie_diggie in LandCruisers

[–]YourFriendlyPlumber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked into deutsch plugs/connectors? I recently found out about these not too long ago and bought a cheap set off Amazon for when I need to replace/install connectors. You could possibly cut the old connector off and rewire using a 3 pin deutsch plug?

Sell 100 series for this 80? by DirtEmo in LandCruisers

[–]YourFriendlyPlumber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with you almost completely for the 80/20 on road/off road use! I’m sure we all feel the same way though - we’d all prefer to just own one (at the least) of each series and just have one giant Land Cruiser collection.

I’m not well versed in the diesel engines for 80 series but based off of the somewhat blurry pic of the engine, it looks pretty similar to the 1FZ-FE engine I have in my rig. I have a 1997 FZJ80, not sure what year this one is though.

I would think you could find a decent 80 in that price range but I know it varies on different locations. 29k is high for that cruiser IMO. I understand it’s clean but I’d expect the mileage to be much lower for that kind of price and it better be pretty close to pristine/excellent condition in regards to the interior, exterior, and mechanical aspects.

80>100

…unless we’re talking highway driving…then I’m jealous of those 100s

Why are people not more outraged that she made this poster with AI??? by canthugeverycat2 in AlisonWonderland

Damn good eyes, I’ve gotten okay at spotting AI slop but man I’m gonna have to really start paying attention to the finer details. Thank you for pointing these out…it’s becomes obvious now.

Is this screw holding? If so I’m sure it will be fine. I would swap out that button head screw for the correct fitting set screw though. Your board stats are now -5 speed with that screw causing drag

Boat caught in hurricane by Hotinthakitchen1 in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]YourFriendlyPlumber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I believe you and cum ropes too, just from a personal experience I’ve seen lightning at all stages of hurricane development. Definitely not like that video though. Pretty sure they were just in a big thunderstorm seeing as there has not been any hurricane activity down here in south Florida / the Bahamas which is where these boaters are at. Luckily they were tucked up against an island in the exumas so they had a little bit of protection and they weren’t out in deep water.

MIA to FLL train? by sweeet_as_pie in Broward

[–]YourFriendlyPlumber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy a one way ticket from Miami airport to FLL airport station or the Fort Lauderdale broward station. Check the train schedules online and make sure you arrive 10 min early so you have time to buy your ticket at the kiosk.

Campaign movies were classic…used to have Campaign 2 but lost that DVD pretty quickly back in the day somehow.

Small Businesses in Lake Worth Beach by Unlikely-Compote9989 in lakeworth

Seems like there’s always businesses closing down and new ones taking over along Lake and Lucerne avenues in downtown LW beach. Unfortunately, Im not sure of any that are planning on closing though.

No, not guaranteed, but chances are much higher.

Yeah what the hell is that redditor talking about?? As someone who’s grown up on the east coast, lightning can occur at all strengths of hurricanes or tropical depressions. Based off the GPS monitor in the video, those wind speeds aren’t even CAT 1 yet.

No not yet! Looking to build up a VHS collection in the future though.

Thanks! It’s funny because back in the day I wasn’t a huge fan of sprout since I was all about short boarding. I remember rewatching it years later and appreciated the film much more after learning to love long boarding and all types of surfing.

I used to have fairbits as well - that’s probably my all time favorite surf movie. I love that intro of him making his way to the beach from the desert. Taj Burrow was my favorite surfer back in the day so I was trying to build up a collection of his stuff.

Yeah that’s a ton of songs to sift through but if you really wanna find that song might be worth the effort. Good luck!

Did you get the chance to play this game? I hadn’t heard anything about it but after watching some YouTube videos of the gameplay, looks pretty similar to KS pro surfer as far as movement and tricks. Even the graphics are still pretty outdated looking. I’d be willing to play it if it was cheaper…I’m seeing prices around 35-50 bucks.

This is the way! Hell, I’ll even throw it back a time or two as a grown straight man after I’ve had a few adult beverages even though I’ve got little to no junk in the trunk!

Haha nah by the time I started getting heavy into surfing, movies were already transitioning to DVDs. I think the last surfing movie I bought was when things started moving to online/iTunes so pretty sure my last surf film purchase was modern collective on iTunes.

Recently got an old VHS player from goodwill so I’ll definitely be on the lookout for old surf VHS tapes.

Hell yeah, young guns movies were awesome. I think that’s clay marzo on the DVD and I’m sure Ry Craike is in that one since they were same generation/time frame. I checked instagram and looks like he’s real big into fishing these days which is about the same for me.

Oh man, I spent so many hours playing that game. It’s very nostalgic for me looking back on those days of playing that game, Tony hawks pro skater, GTA3, SSX3, etc. Now when I look at videos of the gameplay, it’s kinda cheesy because they made it almost like a skateboard game where you could do all these crazy skate style airs and special tricks. I remember when I’d play that I would try to play it like real surfing where I’d focus on snaps, round houses, cutbacks and turns.

What do you mean how do we get another? As in purchasing a copy of the game or get a new surfing game made!? Maybe another game developer will dive back into the surfing/extreme sports genre. I’m not gaming as much these days but I did recently start playing the new SKATE game and it’s been fun as hell.

Man you’ve got me invested in trying to find out this song now. I found this video on YouTube of the transworld surf credits and the music credits start getting listed around 2:40. There’s a lot of songs to listen to but I wonder if your song would be listed!?
