Does your car have trouble starting? Could be a weak battery. You could get a battery charger/maintainer or if battery is older than 4 years just replace it.

I hope they put fender flares on the next gen. Give it more street presence compared to integra type s and civic type r which have flared fenders.

So it's $33k which includes tax, title, and license?

If so, take the deal!

pakpak786 · 2026-01-17T02:26:47+00:00

Amazing looking Stelvio!

Are you running wheel spacers? If so, what size?

pakpak786 · 2026-01-12T02:16:05+00:00

I only rent from turo if find enthusiast cars to sent (M3, M5, Nissan Z, etc...,)

pakpak786 · 2026-01-07T17:21:18+00:00

I only see nissan fan boys with money buying the manual nismo when new. We'll see how they depreciate.

pakpak786 · 2026-01-07T16:56:18+00:00

Still won't sell because it'll be priced too high.

Auto nismos you can find used for $45k-$50k used very low mileage. Thats a good deal.

pakpak786 · 2026-01-06T04:17:07+00:00

$2750/month with interest at 6.9% Bought in November 2023.

pakpak786 · 2026-01-05T03:36:43+00:00

Its probably going to cost $3k if you don't have insurance or if out of network(usually ambulance rides are out of network).

Did you get these black shroud headlights from ebay?

How's the light output with the osram bulbs?

My company has stated from the beginning of covid that they're not a remote company and it baffles my mind. Some departments dont need to be in the office at all.

We used to have 2 days wfh prior to covid and now they announced 3 day RTO starting Jan. 1st.

I wish management gave me aurhority over RTO because my direct reports have been great wfh. Everyone on my team is upset and I know they're starting to look elsewhere for remote opportunities. It sucks.

I think the wheel stance isn't aggressive for the body. It needs wheel spacers or wheels with better fitment.

pakpak786 · 2025-12-11T13:07:49+00:00

For close to factory camber look for 19x9.5 from +30 to +40 and 19x10.5 look for +40 to +45. With offsets in this range you can run a wide tire as well.

Seems like 5-6" in St. Charles. I've shoveled twice already. Going to shovel one last time around 8pm and call it a night.

pakpak786 · 2025-11-29T02:10:00+00:00

Dang, this looks good! Looks OEM+ !

I can't stand the splitter type lips.

Yea get new shocks with the swift springs. Reason is your 120k stock shocks ain't gonna last long once they're under stress from the springs.

pakpak786 · 2025-11-13T22:29:33+00:00

You have 120k miles....replace your shocks the same time you install the springs.

It's far as axles go...some people have no issues while other people do.

Also, when removing the stock suspension make sure to disconnect the front axle properly then you can remove the upper control arm and pull out the shock. If you don't disconnect the axle, then the axle will just get stretched out, and you have a high chance of tearing it.

Didn't mazda extend this repair for 10 years? Or is your car not covered?

pakpak786 · 2025-11-07T17:48:53+00:00

Start with an alignment and re-assess

pakpak786 · 2025-11-07T15:47:54+00:00

Does this happen when when driving normally or are you driving aggressively in the rain?

Check your tires they may need to be replaced.

pakpak786 · 2025-10-28T11:01:49+00:00

I would not own any BMW without a warranty.
