Having just moved back to LA from Connecticut I’m so happy. Back east just to loosen nuts and bolts a torch was needed 80% of the time. Not to mention snow, cold, deer splatter, rust etc. I haven’t touched a torch since I’ve been back. Alldata book times for jobs don’t factor in 2 hours of rusty bolts and having…

If it were a mid 2000's Range Rover those bills would be much higher. And zero fun to drive. Also I’m in California and there is almost zero rust on anything so I would only validate the $599 price tag of parts. Doubt the water pump needed to be replaced because the fan clutch went bad. Are we sure the Aux fan…

0-60 is so 1996.

Add sparks and anything shit becomes epic.

Once I cut the back of my head open and soaked my shirt with blood. I had no idea until after I returned from a road test in that car which had a tan cloth interior. We all ran for salt and hydrogen peroxide pretty fast.

1998 Oldsmobile Aurora Oil Pan and skirt/cradle. Removal of transaxle is step one. Pays 13 hours. Takes about 30. Assuming you don’t snap any cradle bolts off while REMOVING THEM. Which I did. :) Brittle bolts. Was 45 hours deep on this when it rolled out. 2 weeks later the owner crashed it. Total loss. Can’t…

The day I got my 63' beetle back from having a 2300cc turbo motor installed and tuned with a new 5 speed gearbox. Previously with a 1300cc stock motor not being able to climb a hill properly to almost 300whp. Coming home from the shop I floored it around a corner and the ass end flipped around steering me right into…

Here’s how this keeps happening. New cars are delivered in the middle of the night and the keys are left inside. When I worked for Subaru we lost 10 crosstreks in a single night that way. We changed how we did things after that. Usually the cars are in delivery mode and need a scan tool or some fuses rearranged. …

When I crashed my grandpa’s 1963 Chevy into a telephone pole the base of the pole exploded. The truck drove home. Nice dent in the bumper, hood, grill. What a tank.

There is so much wrong with this I don’t even know where to start. First, the front camber is way positive. That tells me they have basically stock front arms, and have maxed out the lift. Which isn’t a good thing. Second, wtf is with the racing floor jack? You need a high lift if you’re serious about…

Good job.

You know when you hear people talk fast with that thick Australian accent and wonder if they just slowed it down a bit you might understand them? Seeing the transcript of the interview confirms that I still have no fucking idea what they are talking about.

Looks over at BMW. Hmm. . .

When my automatic windows encounter resistance partway through their travel they simply roll back down and stay down. Who ever programmed these extenders is an idiot. “Hmm... If someone falls between the train and the platform lets make it retract and extend over and over again until they are flattened enough for…

Intoxicated? ? Who the fuck are these assholes. As if a sober person would have been able to withstand the crushing platform extender?

I Believe people who put LED headlights into non-projector housings are way more dangerous than this guy.

As someone who has had a few track days trying to drift, it’s like driving at the absolute edge. When you’re at the limit like that there is no forgiveness. I think it takes more skill (in drift style) to drift than it does to simply drive a circuit and try to nail the Apex at every corner. This driver looks calm…
