    Bently Continental Coupe for 60k

    I have also seen Bentley Continental's at a used car lot that deals with exotics. I talked to the manager and he also said the Continental does depreciate a lot, although I can't remember why since I was drooling over the Lamborghini.

    SOCAL NSX Smog Test Questions

    Your tubi should be fine. You can also check out magnaflow cats. Some guys have used those to pass. The downside to oem cats is the price.

    Prank on a Ferrari owner that parked in a handicapped space

    I like how the Ferrari owner said "I'm calling the cops." I don't think the police respond to complaints about cars getting wet, although they may be interested in the assault footage and his car parked in the handicapped zone. Also at the end he says "he could buy his whole family." That...

    Smog Check in CA

    Finally passed. I turned out my Random technology cats were bad. They are CARB approved, but I think these high flow cats are junk for emissions testing. I put new OEM cats back on and the emissions were almost zero.

    Am I nuts for liking this NSX?

    I really like this kit as well. Although I really like the NSX R color matched 02 headlights more. I came across some videos on you tube of this car as well. Tommy Kaira's website also has some cool photos with a black background, but for some reason I have a hard time viewing them. I was...

    Smog Check in CA

    I went to Brea Smog test only on Saturday. I chose this place as they rated pretty high on Yelp, they do DMV registration onsite, and have two dynos at ground level. I also had to choose a STAR certified smog station. It really didn't seem any different than a regular smog station or test...

    Help- Anyone with stoptech BBK in socal?

    One thing to remember about the Stoptech template is it may not print to the correct size on your first attempt. I had to increase the print scale slightly above 100% until the template matched the correct size.

    Smog Check in CA

    I just got my DMV renewal and it says I have to go to a STAR smog station. Has anyone gone to one of these yet? If so, what is different? From what I have read, they are monitored by BAR; but what does that actually entail? Do they actually check for CARB EO numbers on parts? I tried to...

    Beat my Traffic Ticket

    From my experience, LA County Sheriffs rarely give warnings. That said, I recently got a warning from one, but that was because he was driving too fast, ran an intersection without his lights and almost ran rear ended me. He felt I should yield to him as he throttles out of a school zone to...

    As most of you know, I'm pretty fat...

    As mentioned above, developing muscle (weight training) throughout your entire body is probably going to be the best and most healthy way. Don't be like most guys and only do upper body workouts. Most upper body muscles are actually fairly small and won't burn as many calories as compared to...

    any Downforce Seat owner in SGV?

    When you say waist are you talking hips or belly? I only ask since most people refer to their waist but really mean their hips (pant size) whereas fitness people usually refer to waist as belly size. When I bought these seats my was wearing 36" (hips) pants and those were getting tight. I...

    Who has taught themselves to play guitar?

    I have been playing guitar since high school. I took lessons for the first year of high school and pretty much was self taught from there. I took lessons from a much better instructor in college and that really paid off. If you are serious about learning the instrument, then I would suggest...

    battery drain

    I had this problem for a while too. The easy solution was the float charger as previously mentioned (actually the Harbor freight one). In my case the positive battery cable wasn't clamping down tight enough due to the clamp stretching (original cable). You might want to pull on the cable to...

    Japan's Fastest NSX acording to Super Street Magazine

    I picked up the magazine, but haven't had time to read it. I came across this video a long time ago, but I figured someone already posted it. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Y-TBaeqrC3I" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    autowave or niguel motors

    Although I don't have any experience with Niguel motors, my experience with autowave has always been positive. When I first got my NSX, their was a ton of stuff that needed to be replaced and fixed. Ultimately ended up getting the transmission rebuilt due to snap ring failure. I was also...

    Your thoughts on the 2012 Insight

    I like the look of the newer insight. I saw one that had aftermarket rims, was lowered and I think it had a body kit. I thought it looked pretty cool. That said, I still like my Fit sport. Even with the manual transmission, I average anywhere from 32-35 mpg.

    Difflow NSX Diffusers... coming soon.

    Re: NSX Diffusers... coming soon. Not everyone feels it's necessary to "upgrade" to the newer valence. Therefore, a rear diffuser for the original valence would be unique part.

    More pics of Honda CR-Z Mugen RR released

    Fifth gear did a review of the Mugen CRZ. For some reason, the exhaust note was starting to get on my nerves. I think I'll stick with my nerdy Honda Fit. http://www.autoblog.com/2011/07/21/fifth-gear-thrashes-honda-cr-z-mugen/

    The Official Working Out Thread

    If you don't eat enough food your body won't have enough energy for lifting never mind going heavy. I tried the carb free diet for a week and I felt pretty awful. It also noticed the amount of weight I could lift dropped significantly. Went back to eating brown rice and protein source like...

    Forza 4 trailer!

    I think there will be. I remember the teaser trailer had some night racing clips, but that wasn't in game footage. Here is a pretty interesting video I came across. http://www.streetfire.net/video/forza-motorsport-4-behind-the-scenes-video_2297476.htm

    Another '02 conversion thread

    I've been debating the 02 conversion ever since I bought my car 4 years ago. I admit the newer headlights look more modern, but at certain angles the newer face looks a little strange to me. One member referred to it as a "dead fish" and for some reason that analogy always stuck with me. As...
