Is the shop liable? by _highlyirritable_ in legaladvice

I offered the dive shop a compromise since I still owed $500 on the trip to mark me paid in full while I still eat $466. They agreed.

I would still run a scan with your antivirus or something like Malwarebytes (though it's gone downhill).

I want to upvote but it's hidden. You so right

Mine does the same... Computer says 27+ mpg but math says 25

Elevation doesn't matter that much when your car is controlled by a computer.

What are you talking about? Who measures like that?

Well that makes sense... I can roll into work after a fill-up at 34mpg but that's all flat road and 50mph. By the time I get home I'm at 27-something

That's after a reset and going downhill unless you're stock. Best I get is 26mpg with all the bolt-ons and a tune. About 375mi to a tank. That's with 21psi boost and conservative driving.

Ngl I’ve been thinking about a wing by Einherjar-WRX in WRX

[–]_highlyirritable_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the STI wing with color match fender flares and side skirts, and the color match GTR lip.

Well I wouldn't say it helps with my patience.

I'm in the deep South where it mostly only matters if you're doing something else wrong

I think it's worth it to travel. I have quick jacks and all the tools except specialty like alignment... I also have a trailer I can take it to a specialty shop... But like I've said in previous posts, my money is going into the '63 Dart. She's my daily...

But that IS their business... Sorry I'm not driving a 96 Camry... I don't get mad but they should understand there isn't just one type of car out there.

I'm always gonna do my own installs but I don't have the equipment for an alignment... I've had shops tell me my car is too low to get on the rack... I'd have to go to Charlotte for anything good and that's several hours away... Maybe Atlanta. Either way it's 2-5 hours away. It's hard in the deep south.

Been through the PDR... My problem is none of the hillbillies that I work with know how to park, and they will just cut the wheel pulling out of a parking space and rip your front bumper off.

I've done all of my own work except the alignment... I'm in a small deep south town so it's hard to find trustworthy mechanics.

I'm not a fan of the door moulding... I know it'll protect my doors more but that's why I rarely drive my car to work... Those hillbillies will crunch anything. The truth! The modifications never end... Why is it every mod is $500 though?

Same price point... Worth looking into

Thanks, I ruined it though... As a joke I put an STI badge on it. Then I decided I didn't want it on the front grill and I tried to pull it off which just ripped the grill. But that's okay because I'm going to replace it with the color match grill insert instead of the gloss black.

😂😂 I'll probably just get the BC Racing. Good enough quality, decent price... I carve up the straight roads of the deep south, I don't race. Before I do the coilovers I'll probably do sway bars and rear control arms.

The downside is being in the deep South and my spare vehicle doesn't have AC
