    Best Cordless Tools?

    My dad has a ton of Ryobi and nothing has broke or failed us yet. I was looking to buy some tools myself and was looking at milwaukee/ Makita. I like this guy's tests for tool comparison - .

    Protecting catalytic converters?

    I see plenty of threads like these on reddit, the general consensus is try to discourage the theft by welding either a chain to the cat, a cage or some other reinforcement to create additional work for them.

    Build 'em like they used too?

    There needs to be an FCP euro equivalent for other non german brands. Lifetime warranty parts store that will even replace Oil. I buy everything for my E30 there and never have to worry about a part failing, I just ship it back and get a new one.

    how long does polyurethane last?

    Delrin is harder than poly bushings. It is used in the E30 community for track cars (Trans, engine, diff and suspension bushings to tighten them up) and generally for shifter bushings. My E30 uses Poly 80A bushings, I dont see different types FS in the C10 community it just seems to all be...

    87 2500 4x4 truck build

    Throttle body injection. You should have 1 or 2 injectors in your throttle body. I like my KYB shocks on my lowered C10, for a heavier burb it might differ.

    Where do you put your antifreeze when doing a flush?

    Any auto parts, or chain shop (midas, pep poys etc) takes fluids for free. Except brake fluid I think, idr one fluid was a no go - source just dropped off about 2 years of all fluids from both my cars at the local midas in 5 different containers. cuz ya know to disincentive people just dumping it.

    Looking into a new compact car.

    I've been looking at WRXs, GTIs and other smaller manuals. I'm not really brand loyal and have bounced around the german brands until the square. Interesting to see so many Hyundai and Kia recommendations. I really couldn't imagine being happy driving something below 250ish hp at the weight...

    Flat beds anyone?

    I also considered a flat bed and this is what I’d want mine to look like if I did it. Simply perfect.

    WTT: Short bed manual truck

    Just throwing this up in the hopes someone local is hoarding a few and wants to change it up. I have a 87 R1500 V6/700R4 long bed GMC. Fresh paint, whole body gone over, all new interior etc. Willing to add some cash for the right truck. I have a folder of everything I've done to it maintenance...

    What’s IT Worth? (Post all “what’s it worth threads here)

    Thats my exact thought process. I decided I want a K10 for winter DD and hauling supplies. ideally I can trade for a manual shortbed in decent condition sub a motor. Or maybe I can snag a 4x4 frame

    What’s IT Worth? (Post all “what’s it worth threads here)

    Kinda want to sell this and buy a manual shortbed K10. Just way to big for daily DT city driving. That or Ima cut it up lol. The auto part is also boring me to death when I drive. 43k miles and some photos as you can see. 2/4 drop and everything to put it back to stock was kept just incase.

    V6 TBI to..... recommendations?

    The more shopping and planning I do the more I think an AR5 speed would make everything a lot more fun....

    OPTIONS for bench seat and carpet -

    I just saw these seats browsing YT today, love the VW tri stitch look on them. Wonder what itd cost to get them done. I had a guy do my E30 sport seats for 200$ when I provided the seat leather. Although these would be more work to make I bet.

    Vince's TBI woes, progressive revelations, and tbi mods.

    All good, its a stand alone ECM, I run my BMW on it. Very easy to tune very helpful community for figuring out issues etc. the top tier version can run an LS if you decide to change engines ever or boost

    V6 TBI to..... recommendations?

    It wouldn't be the first time I drove to the Carolinas to meet a dude on a forum to buy something lol.

    V6 TBI to..... recommendations?

    Not a bad idea and I was considering it. Just have to find and snag a truck/ burb thats decently priced around me. Everyones parting them or selling restored burbs, there are few ones for cheap. A C1500's 350 would swap right in as well shouldnt it? a 350 TBI from the 88-93 trucks?

    E30 325i -> 335i my daily and first project

    The new interior vs the "old" sport seats I got from a local guy. I didnt like everything all black so I added some color. The M30 after getting the top end rebuilt, just need to work up the effort to swap it in now.

    E30 325i -> 335i my daily and first project

    Hello! I just wanted to share my first project car and probably my favorite of any I've owned (7 total). The photo with my dad is the day I bought it filling up after the trip home. I bought the car in January of 2018, it was an automatic listed for 4 hours on R3vlimited (E30 forum), saw it...
