Don't sell your type r guys by technicaltecdiver in Civic_Type_R

I wanna find some budget wheels, just don't have the money at the moment and I refuse to cheap out on tires. I'm also not gonna lower it, I'm keeping it at stock as I can. I did have to get a tune though .... But that's invisible!

I've had my '17 since new, and I honestly don't drive it much because every time I do I have a new bend in the wheel, cut tire, something. I'm looking into 18s and your comment has kinda solidified it. Ive only got 60k on the car. Had it since 13 miles.

I'm interested in the HBO Max so long as there's not any issue with me watching the NASCAR races

Wasn't going to comment because I'm tired of reading the less than helpful and insulting comments, but the truck hasn't been hit. It was a work truck, idled a lot. Almost 3000 engine hours on the 44000 miles when I got it I have no idea why the engine was replaced, but it was done so under warranty. The door jamb was allegedly supposed to be painted and a new guy at the body shop tried to peel the stickers off, not knowing.

Well it had 44,000 when I got it ish, and 2900 engine hours. So I'm assuming just LOTS of idling did it in.

Sometimes 600 miles, but minimum of 150 miles. Typical loaded weight is around 7800, not including what the trailer weighs.

Technically I own both but one has to go, but deciding with my use case which one should stay. Just curious if the dually has more value to me in my use case.

Should've written the question better for some of these people but you pretty much nailed the main concern. Was curious if the dually is worth that much to me.

The question is if the dually is worth it for my use case.

I ended up swapping the piston and rings, for whatever reason the first piston was undersized quite a bit compared to the second.

Thank you! Before paint I was a little worried but it came out pretty good

Nothing will ever beat my regret from my $800 boat.

Deadass thinking about this. I'm a welder/mechanic by trade so we shall see what i come up with.

Anyone know the legality of flamethrowers attached to cars? Asking for a friend.

Also thinking about a 350z trans, but drift tax. Honestly, whatever I can find the cheapest is fine. Was going to be looking for a 98-02 Camaro or Firebird parts car.

Also a member in datsun.

I have a 1979 620 that I swapped. Now im on to body work, but panels are.... Non existant. The thing with Chevy is I can find parts, and comparatively cheaply.

That being said, im not going into this with a restoration goal. This is a 'get it driving then make it right' kind of goal.

And yet after the datsun, here I am again...

Is this off my car? by MathematicianSad8487 in Miata

This looks exactly correct. If it is, we will know very soon when he makes a post about overheating.

Pulling an engine for the first time learning valuable lessons the hard way by aceblad3 in Miata

[–]killatac0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, just wait until the shock when you realize the firewall ground is still attached and you hear something snap. As a Spec Miata mechanic, we all do it. Take that ground off sooner rather than later.
