This would be cool if he could close his boot lid with that clunky rig on there. You can see the panel gap and how the mechanism is right up again his boot lid. Doesn't really matter if you can hide your number plate if your boot keeps flying open on the motorway!

@3O2MuStAnG What a remarkably intellectual response, Mr. 3O2iNceSt!

Very cool. It does look like you're varying the supply voltage to the lights (which I assume are LED) since they tend to fade to about 50% and then go out. If they are LEDs, and you are changing their voltage supply, I might suggest looking into PWM if you ever go back in to do any more work. A g...

Sounds to me like there's someone inside gasping, "I'm stuck!". Of course, with one of these that's more than possible.

Funny how when I watch this, I can't help but notice that, despite the VW Veyron being faster, it's still a Volkswagen - it's big and bulbous looking and sounds like a fat man's rumbling stomach. Such a disgraceful car, the Veyron. As a circuit board, it's great. But as a car, it lacks the thing ...

"In this example, I'll basically talk for 5 minutes about nothing at all of use to anyone, effectively raising my billable hours - but performing no other useful tasks."

@benmiata That screw is not an "idle screw". It's not a leaf blower, it's a car. It has an idle air controller for a reason. You're only managing to confuse the ECU. If you want to adjust the idle, flash the ECU so it uses the idle air motor, who's job it is to control idle. I had a miata come in...

@ferrucio2004 Because it's cold. If you start your engine and then rev it to 6k+ shortly thereafter, you're about to find out what fun is all about. It's called buying a new engine. :)

@NiNJATUuNA28 Remind me again how carbon (not Carbon Dioxide, or Carbon Monoxide, just carbon) harms the ozone? Oh right, from CHEM 121, I recall that it doesn't. Carbon isn't a greenhouse gas. It doesn't hurt the environment in any way. The soot coming from that stack is unfurled fuel, released ...

I hope the buyer didn't want that cartridge, cause after adding a 10g stack of coins, it's toast. :/

Two things I noticed in that video: The ending was staged, the BMW did *NOT* "break down", they just re-used and slowed the footage from earlier when he was avoiding the spike strips; and the Corvette cruiser wasn't threatened, he turned into the BMW, not the other way around, and the ladder chas...

13 people were beaten badly in their "sick" and "modded" FWD Hondas by a 9+ year old BMW.

1 person has a Prius and only gets 17.2 MPG in it.

@firedodge1974 , very nice! Automatic is fine for daily driving, but I'm sure with a supercharger you can exert more control over the car. Superchargers are known for low-end grunt and with the manual, you can give it more juice without it shifting all over the place!

Try this on one of the new plastic-fantastic Hammond clones and instead of a good show, you'd have a new paperweight. And not even a very heavy paperweight. :/

I have a good friend who worked for a Subaru dealer. He quit when he was required to "clunk" a Volvo S80, a BMW 535i, a Mercedes 530SL, and an Isuzu Rodeo. All had less than 150k miles and all were in perfect drivable condition. They were great cars with plenty of purpose left. We both find this ...

I remember the video like this where they drained the coolant and oil from a Mercedes 240D and put water in the crankcase. Only difference was, even though it was a diesel and shouldn't have liked to rev like a gasser, it lasted over 9 minutes at full throttle. Not less than 1. Oh well, that's Fo...

@wogdoggyhow much more efficient is FWD? maybe 1-2%? is that worth the totally non-drivers-car-like torque steer and understeer? no way. theres a reason all drivers' cars are RWD - its better. and as a matter of fact, ive done every bit of service to my 99 540i and even though it has 100k more mi...

@alexdenton02 I'm pretty sure even a complete idiot could figure that out.. :/

@Mortison77577 How is a square wave that samples every so often "perfection" when it's trying to reproduce an analog wave? if you just don't give a shit, that's fine, say it. But we all know vinyl is a real analog wave. 44.1 is just that. 44.1, rather than infinity.

@tomtom58 I know this is an old comment, but I have to say I've herd many good setups and never heard anyone but an *ignorant* audiophile nock an SL-1200. The SL-1200 was built with a level of precision and quality that was rare for most tables despite being what you might call a mass-production ...

@ulbktd Buy good, full synthetic, LL-04 oil like German Gastrol. Don't add anything to a good oil, the additive package was designed by engineers with much...much more knowledge of engine wear than you have, mr. consumer. And by additive package I mean what's already in a good Synthetic oil. Not ...

Don't try that with a gas job. Probably blow it's rods right out the block. Get a real engine like this Cummins!

Phut Phut Phut! Dees carrr is vrrront veel drrive. Mmmm ghulley ghulley. Indian idiot.
