Man you don't gently caress around. Also I had to go grab a Dr. Pepper after seeing yours.

Randi Challenger posted:Yes sir (ma'am?) it is. Out of all the dogs I've owned through the years my ACD is the most loyal of them all. Any particular reason you ask? Just wondering, I (well my family, I moved) have one, such awesome dogs. No one ever knows what he is, they always look at him kinda strange.

MrSaturn posted:This interests me. Can you elaborate a bit on this? Are they hollow for some VVT madness, or for weight savings? It seems to me the latter is a strange place to try to save weight. Camshafts spin, less rotating mass probably makes a pretty big difference when the engine is revving to 7k +.

IsaacNewton posted:You know me? I guess you do and quite possibly tasted my poutines. Which for the most part is highly appreciated by my guests. A poutine is a poutine, you put good poo poo into it and it turns out good. There's no science to it. Everyone know you need good cheese curds. This is why I said no one need instruction. It's like someone needing instruction to boil eggs. I just read this in my mind in a horrible quebecois accent.

Sockington posted:I pretty much strictly go there for tools unless there is a sale on oil. For car parts, it seems I've developed a taste for ordering from a network of discount OEM dealers (Tousley Ford, Genuine Subaru, Mazda Motorsports account, Lithia Toyota). I pretty much exclusively buy tools from Canadian Tire, 2 different Maximum tool kits, got a 1/2 torque wrench last time they went on sale, but it doesnt have the colored handle like yours, 18v impact and accessories when it was on sale, flashlights, scrapers, drills. As long as you dont buy Jobmate brand even the normal Mastercraft stuff is okay. Ohh also my favorite ratchet is a Maximum, comfy grip, small head and a nice movement.

8ender posted:The Jobmate stuff is fine as long as you buy it keeping in mind that they aren't built for lots and lots of duty. I have a Jobmate angle grinder which has been fine because I rarely use it. Works great when I do. If I was grinding every day I'd probably be looking for a better one. We have a Jobmate dremel which took forever to cut through a tiny hollow metal rod, cant keep the cutting wheels straight and 60% of the time they break sending shards flying everywhere. I bought a real Dremel last month and it's like buttah. Also I got a $10 Jobmate tool kit to throw in my car for emergencys (it came with a tool bag). It came with a 3/8 ratchet but 1/4 sockets, the first time I tried to use it with the adapter that it came with the adapter sheared off. The flashlight lasts 10 minutes and is dull... soooo bad!

It will have been discovered halfway through building something for the house, that some piece has succumbed to rot and needs to be completely replaced.

In all 3 of my S13s there was a cake of wet mud, dirt, grass, and other grime under the mudflaps leaving nice rust holes in one of them. Even my Xterra mudfaps just held onto dirt, Nissan

I'm probably not going to bother with the poo poo Winters that I got with the Merc, I mean I have my truck for snow, the all seasons should be fine for whatever light dusting I'd get stuck in in Vancouver.

VelociBacon posted:Hey fellow vangoon. I agree that you really don't need winter tires at all in Vancouver. Especially if you have a truck. This will be my first 4wd winter - do you know any good places around the lower mainland for light offroading/loving about with the cars? I was thinking Cypress parking lot or something. Cypress lot is kinda fun for doing donuts and stuff, when its open and not full of cars. Otherwise I don't really know, haven't got out of my way to find anything like that, though I should.

Normal 110v plug in irons blow, only time I ever have to use them is doing emergency fixes for work in a hangar somewhere, otherwise we have a few Weller stations at our shop.

My favorite recent craigslist experience was a guy selling some Mercedes wheels for "1500 OBO" and they were overpriced, I offered him $1000 in an email. His response was "I'm not selling them for less then $1500". THEN DONT loving PUT OBO IN YOUR AD, do you even understand what that means? Do you think people are going to trip over themselves offering MORE then your asking price??
