  1. 3 on the tree is a good time. I enjoy driving them, just important to make sure the bushings are in good shape in the linkage for the shifter or it's really fun trying to find gears!
  2. It was not a great experience. The transmission shifting is slow, unbelievably clunky, and overall not very fun. We had another guy with a Ferrari F355 with the same "F1" transmission and most people with them hate them. It's considered a "automated" manual so when you are sitting at a light and take your foot off the brake nothing happens, you start to hit the gas and the clutch engages and it feels like you are taking off as a manual, but it's not smooth at all. Motor was "ok" at best, nothing incredible. The interior was absolutely trash, a bunch of the buttons on the dash had the texture of sticky croutons, they were falling apart and all the identification print on them had worn off. This car had 20K miles on it. The flip side to this is Tim Neely at Performance Auto Spa has one and really praises it. Personal opinion when it comes to any cars, but he would have insight from the other end of the argument.
  3. Have you personally driven one of these things lol?
  4. Manual Acura TL I'm glad so many people have had success with the 535/335's, but they absolutely suck to work on when they break. I would never own one for that reason alone.
  5. 4 posts are great for most DIY activities for average DIY-ers. I am also going to be installing lifts, but for me 4 posts are for storage and 2 posts are for work. I personally hate working on cars on a 4 post, it's totally do-able, it's just way easier on a 2. Nice thing about a 4 post is there is typically less concrete requirements and they are relatively easy to install with some friends.
  6. I suppose since 2004 is a totally different chassis!
  7. Oh man, I remember those as a kid. I picked those up because I wanted the tool boxes.
  8. I'm a Toyota fan boi, so we'll see how the new truck turns out/performs. Toyota has never been a leader as far as pick up trucks go. I still really enjoy not having to maintenance them hardly at all.
  9. Since this has derailed a bit....... I'm really hoping Toyota hits a home run with the new Tundra in 2022 after dropping the V8 entirely and going V6TT allegedly. I wouldn't even be mad if they pulled their hybrid tech into the truck for electric torque on take off from a light. They have really proven themselves as a leader in "hybrid" to me.
  10. If they made a MSM version of the new ND chassis it would be huge. These cars are also a ton of fun.
  11. Don't see a TSB for that symptom. There is always a hilarious amount of recalls on American cars haha
  12. Prices increase in cars (specifically toys) in my opinion because either: A- Popular people do cool things and make it look easy and people try to copy OR B- People who grew up during a particular era feel nostalgic and want a vehicle they always liked as a kid I still think MK4 Supras are $30K overpriced most of the time You can add DC2 GSR Integras to that list. Have now seen 2 sell for nearly/over $20K
  13. CXRacing and SIKKY are popular with the drift bois. Vorshlag I would imagine is the authority kit for BMW and priced accordingly. CXRacing and SIKKY are "good enough" but typically need a little massaging.
  14. E36 Edit, or a E34 if it's supported with swap parts.
  15. Duncan Imports in Virginia? They get all sorts of weird stuff, have a massive inventory, and generally are priced high for the market. But perhaps worth a look?
  16. We send overflow to Payne's down the street or Luke's Automotive off Byers Circle. Being an American(?) car either would be fine.
  17. We are scheduling for the 24th, so unfortunately we can't help out ASAP.
  18. Plus all the times you happen to order the wrong part, or your aftermarket crap doesn't fit correctly, etc. We just know how it goes sometimes. I have it happen sometimes at the shop or at the home garage, etc.
  19. Diggin the black roof and lower rear panel around the exhaust.
  20. It will be interesting when Joe rust bucket shows up and breaks a critical part to keep the vehicle mobile and can't get one for a week and the car is essentially stranded.
  21. Turo lists 2 of them in the Columbus area. One is $112 per day and a "all star host"
  22. Start stocking up now! Before it becomes the next R12.
