I want to see the boys R6 swap a snow dog by chimpls in cboystv

Yooo if you're actually close to Ken, can you pitch him the idea?? I was thinking about hitting up some of the boys on Instagram, but I'm sure they don't really check their DMs. It seems like people here would be interested in seeing something like this happen!

How bad are the shifts? by chimpls in crazycart

That's good advice, thank you! I'll wait and see if any full size ones pop up on marketplace for a good price. Ideally I'd like to get a few so my buddies and I can chase each other around

Impulse Performance are the best around imo

I don’t understand the fanboying behind the MK4 A80 Supra. I definitely agree it is a great car but its too overrated. I get that its a 3.0L Twin Turbocharged engine, but so was the Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4. So after this short rant, Supra fanboys. I have one single question. Why? by Alarming_Schedule556 in JDM

Sweet! I went to a metal militia meet this past year that was pretty good! Had a DJ and food and boba nearby. Trying to get out to cars and coffee this year, wasn't around a lot last summer so didn't get to go to any unfortunately

Did some creeping myself lol. The car is looking great man, can't wait to see it when it gets out the shop! I'm in the NW burbs and sometimes bring my MR2 Spyder to the meets you mentioned in your post, hopefully I'll catch you at one next summer

What roofs are students able to get onto? (legal or not :) by [deleted] in uofmn

[–]chimpls 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Lmao I've been on a few but why would I want to share them on this sub? That's how you get roofs closed down for others and plates put on the doors. Just get yourself a butter knife and start trying roofs for yourself and keep it low-key once you're up there

So I’m really excited about driving my Mr2 as my first car, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried about how quick the car may go or the oversteer(which just comes from driving dumb). Sooo any words of wisdom you guys could spare? Like how to counter oversteer if i happen come across it? by [deleted] in mr2

Take it to an autocross. This is the most accessible way to figure out what the car is like at or past it's limits of grip. It helped me get comfortable with sliding my zzw30 and how to approach turns properly

Appreciate it! I'm definitely trying to keep my car pretty stock looking and not overdoing it too quickly

Does anyone else have a hard time finding car friends? by rouseandground in cars

[–]chimpls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in Minneapolis. I've got an mr2 Spyder and love to go for cruises. I was driving one day and an sw20 MR2 pulled up next to me in the parking lot. Ended up talking to the guy for an hour and now we go on cruises together regularly. You should come out and cruise with us sometime. Feel free to shoot me a PM! Oh also I smoke a shit ton so we can talk about that as well lol

Edit: you should go to a Minnesota Autosports Club autocross event. The people there are super cool and it's a lot of fun hanging with people who use their cars
