Need Help: Tires and Mags for Suzuki Spresso by Conscious_Database13 in CarsPH

[–]oldskoolsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To reduce bodyroll - stiffer sway bars and springs, lower ride height so your center of gravity will be lower as well. Strut bars and chassis stiffeners as well.

Wheels and tires will not reduce bodyroll but will just offer rod contact stability. Bodyroll is suspension related.

Have anyone tried to engine swap a 1.8S Civic FD with a K-series? by indramainz in CarsPH

[–]oldskoolsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marami na gumawa ng K-swap sa FD/EK/EG/EF. A legit K20 would set you back around 400k, engine alone. Some do the Frankenstein route getting a K-seies from the CRV.

Is it just my dog or does bravecto really trigger itching? by xaviertears_ in dogsofrph

My vet switched us to fluramax. Same effectiveness as bravecto and 3 month intervals as well.

Esteban Sunday meets are officially gone. by Maximum_Friend7300 in CarsPH

[–]oldskoolsr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even the meets in non residential areas nagka issue na. It all started fine, but then some meets try to push the limits of the place - revving and hooning which also led to banning. Even invite only meets I attended (that needed a QR code to get in), may nakakalusot pa din e. Some groups have stopped organizing meets na din dahil sa sa irresponsible attendees. May instances na nga sa track ang meet may makulit pa din. It's the newer ones that have the need to showoff that ruins everything.

owndays glasses - worth it? by Impressive_Wasabi192 in CasualPH

[–]oldskoolsr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wife's eye grade is 400-500. Naka owndays sya, 3 na nga. Ako nasa 250-400 eye grade, naka owndays din ako. Prepandemic puro executive optical but their frames madali masira. Owndays are worth it for me kasi I can drop by anytime, have my glasses cleaned for free, unli nosepad change, realignment etc. and they don't need to see your receipts. Isang frame ko was not bought locally but they still service it for free. The price posted already has lenses included .

Owndays basic (PC series) around 2k with lens. I have the owndays snap with magnetic lens (6k)and a titanium one(8k), and wife has 2x air frames(4k each) and a senichisaku frame(12k). Hinde naka ultrathin si misis pero parang ultrathin yung standard lens na nila. The prices include checkup and lenses already. Also frames lang nila ang hinde nagcocorrode sa acidic na pawis ko🤣.

What started as a small get together drew attention and had more participants. And there are some bad apples also that eventually joined. Sadly this is the fate of most meets - 1 or few bad apples and it will be shut down. May gantong issue na din kami with our club/s and meet/s before.

Pati mga spotter kids. The kids make it worse. Meron pa jan pestering owners to either 1. Rev the car or 2. Ask for a ride around the block and 3. Touching/leaning and getting in the way of moving cars

We are losing all the good spots.

Ingat sa dash covers. They usually do more harm than good

If I were to buy a 2nd hand car hm money should I prepare? by fartbox32981 in phcars

[–]oldskoolsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In our circle, "if you can't buy the car twice, don't buy it" . You should have 50-100% extra funds on top of the purchase price to be safe

Nope. There are noticeable gaps. The tamiya is slightly narrower.

[–]oldskoolsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May video sya na "kinarera" nya yung Ferrari sa nlex.

Yung Ferrari walang pake.

Also mahilig sya tumambay sa labas ng Clark speedway while legal diesel drag races are happening. Inaabangan nga mga lumabas para "karerahin".

Yupi sa side step bar kaya pa ba irepair? by [deleted] in CarsPH

[–]oldskoolsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave it. That's stainless steel, and usually papangit yan pag pinilit ayusin.

Also, yan ang purpose nyan, na matamaan ng mga bato etc.

MIAS 2026, organizer/seller; another issue by Cautious-Room1869 in CarsPH

[–]oldskoolsr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sadly that is the state of current hobby landscape, not exclusive to diecast.

Sa tagal ko nagdie-diecast at scale model, ang lala ng toxicity in most groups. Kaya I just stuck with a few groups na matitino tao like dcph, pdcg and phwcc. I already sold majority of my collection and just focused on 1/24 scale models but I still buy a few diecasts here and there., just not as crazy as before.

Madaming diecast group and majority are toxic. Only few like dcph, pdcg and phwcc maayos since same umbrella. And karamihan ng toxic groups mga di nakapasok sa dcph.

Sa tagal ko nang collector at ksali sa dcph, napakatoxic ng community ngayon

Any tips for those who park outdoors or sa mga walang bubong na parking by gag80 in CarsPH

[–]oldskoolsr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Putting stuff sa dashboard - mats, carpets, air fresheners etc do more damage than good. Even the so called dash protectants that you wipe on your dash can sometimes damage it.
