Holy poo poo, have you guys heard the sounds this new 550hp VR6 crate motor can make? Time to daydream about swapping one into my GTI.

My 2013 GTI is about to hit 100k miles, what should I replace it with? Unfortunately they haven’t sold a 2-door GTI in the US since 2016. Maybe I’ll just get a Golf R but the 4-door golf just bores me to tears.

can you go over a bump on one side or the other and tell if it's isolated to that particular side?

that ball joint could be going but i wonder if it's the sway bar endlinks, pretty common cause of clunking on all sorts of cars.

It's so much easier to have a dedicated hauler for dogs that you don't have to worry about them ruining your pristine, fast car

I was just forwarded a spreadsheet for the Mazdaspeed3 I'm buying. The owner kept track of every single maintenance item since they purchased the car in 2013.



they also kept track of every single fill up they ever did, including the date, the mileage at the time of fill up, how much gas they bought, and how many mpg they're getting.



what the hell

I'm going to always buy cars from engineers from now on.

pretty easy to track all that with fuelly, i have just about the same data on all my cars
