Recommended Posts

anyone watch this show?

i catch it here and there

its speed channels answer to import kids crys

 

its on right now and im laughing

theyre putting an air suspension on a 3000gt

because the shows one host said the system on it was inferior

 

yet all theyve done is clean up a bit of wiring

bolt in a shitty walmart airtank

put horrible air fittings on it

and bolt on a few apc products

 

this show is a joke

its one big ad for apc and pepboys

they need to go back to their usual format

of bolting on intakes, bodykits and exhausts

because this is just retarded

 

im sure no one cares, but i just felt like ranting

 

woowee my classic car is on next

now that is a show

idiots.

 

it was just an M? new style car? cause they made a 4 door m3 in 97 and 98. and now they make a 4 door m5. but i think i did see just an m recently.. but i didn't get a good look and could be wrong.

 

i saw an f150 with harley stickers, not badges, on it, like the harley edition, and then is had "ss" stickers under the back f-150 badge....gay.

Funny thing...back when I was in high school...I saw this bad ass car out in front of work. I stopped and asked the dude what it was. It was an M3. That's when I started my German car fascination. Oddly enough...that dudes first bad ass car was a Camaro.

if by tv you mean massivly built motor

and by sound system you mean straight pipe

then yes best of wishes

 

sidenote: i put a tv and dvd player in my friends truck the other day and it reaffirmed my stance on tvs in cars totally not being cool

i guess i see the point in a van or suv or big car if you go on trips and stuff, because passengers get bored, but just getting a tv so you have one is so goddamned retarded

the tv thing goes in the same file as wanting a fog machinf ported to my wheel wells and under lighting... strictly show shit... serves dick while moving but looks flash as shit while parked at a show...

 

and this wouldn;t be in the current truck... the massive motor and straight pipe will be for the truck... half way there right now...

you just gave me a million dollar idea

 

sell a kit that pours fog out of your wheelwells

either front or back (your choice)

also included in the kit will be a weather proof speaker

and audio unit that expells the sound of spinning tires

 

ill call it burnout in a box

i contact my friend at apc tomorrow

but no, i dont really watch that show.

 

When i first started working on cars a little bit I thought that the shit would be overwhelmingly complcated. It's really no more difficult than legos with wrenches. You take something appart and put the screws back into the right places. Body work and wiring and all that is a whole nother story that i know nothing about.

That show is really faggish.

 

When, I disagree about the tv in cars thing. I have spent hours smoking blunts and playing NBA 2k2 sitting in my buddy’s car. It sucks when we forget to idle a bit and he has to call the caa (aaa to you guys), though.

 

The fog machine and speakers thing idea is hilarious. And sad, because it would sell, no doubt.

 

Also, yuck, I’d have to disagree with you on that wrenches and legos statement. Fixing cars isn’t that easy. A lot of mechanics are underpaid for the hard work they have to do. Diagnosing a problem in a vehicle correctly is only the first step, and that could be very hard. Then there’s the whole fixing it correctly thing...
