Did you drill the front bumper? Will look so much nicer with no front plate

[EvoFire]

Took out my summer swapped and unwashed car today. Lots of nice cars all over today and the dashboard read 20C in the afternoon when I went to pick up a case of beer from the store.

The weather report was right, the temperature is 8C outside and wet, the M3 was squabbling for traction trying to turn right on an off-camber turn.

[dark0821]

Did you drill the front bumper? Will look so much nicer with no front plate

Yes they are drilled.

Yes and no, at least for the Canadian market Prius Prime, the front bumper does get that rectangular piece molded into the bumper (see below).

So you will need a bumper swap from another market for the clean look.

I think I literally angered everyone at the Toyota dealership before my Supra arrived... ANY person who contacted me about my vehicle either by email or phone I told them "Don't you dare drill a front plate holder into the front bumper" and when I showed up to get the car, they had tags attached to both sets of keys with a note not to drill the front bumpr and someone even stuck tape on the front bumper with that written in sharpie lolol

[JDMDreams]

Cars ruined, man they really want you to put in that front plate if they designed that whole bump

[Badhobz]

I ran for about 6 years on the maserati with no front plates till in 2016 or something when some RCMP bitch gave me a warning. Then afterwards the tickets started to roll in.

I’m gambling right now with no plate but luckily the mount isn’t drilled so if I need to put it on it’s not the end of the world

It's insane that people are so incompetent that you have to repeat yourself every single instance to get what you want, how you want it. I've been seeing this across the people I deal with vendors/couriers/etc at work too.

I generally agree. But on the flip side the manager at BMW told me it'd be cooler if I ran with no front plate, and that he'd make sure they don't touch the front bumper.

I've had the tow hook mount on all my Lambos, it looks ridiculous but it's better than drilling holes into the bumper.

Probably shouldn't continue the topic here, but it's not front-line staff that I'm talking about. Upper and middle management are guilty of this too. I understand minor mistakes but when someone has confirmed that they would do x, I would think that x would actually get done.

In the case of plate mounts, I would assume that the first person 68 talked to would put a note on file or the sales person would make it a priority that this doesn't get missed. Unfortunately, this isn't the case and it becomes an "oops" because not everyone checks notes on file or some kind of miscommunication.

[68style]

Yah I had ZERO confidence from all my experience in the car world that it would be remembered, so I made myself annoying af to make sure it got remembered.

I didn't enjoy being a Ken like that but gotta do what you gotta do lol

[RabidRat]

Just saying, when I did the actual purchase on my R1T, the entire process was online. And on one page, there was a checkbox "do you want Rivian to install the front license plate mount, or will you install it yourself?" And they followed through: no drilling, just left the parts in the frunk.

Every car purchase should be like this. Not some crazy game of error-prone telephone.

[JDMDreams]

What about putting that apple wood sticker on your trunk + plate frame, or do you prefer sucky bath motor stickers:joy:

That was something I asked about too, I told them not to put a Destination sticker on it and at that particular request they acted like I was the crazy one... they said of course we don't do that anymore... just license plate frames.

Did spring cleaning on my FIL's TSX - used to be mine until 3 years ago - swapped summers back on, detail in and out. He sure has aged that car since he took it off my hands - scuffed up the front and rear bumpers real good, the inside and the trunk are just full of junk, and he rarely washes it.

Still drives real nice though - great little motor and the auto has really good programming. Not bad for a 2007 car.

[Traum]

It's a similar story with my dad's Civic X. It's an 8 year old car now, and esp in the last few years, he has scuffed and dinged it up good. I keep telling myself that at some point if he screws up big enough, I'm gonna get my mom and my brother to gang up on him, and "convince" him to give up driving. So far, it hasn't come to that, and I am really glad it hasn't come to that yet.

I know that in some cases, once you take away a senior's driving privilege, they really go downhill fast.

Like I said, I am totally not looking forward to that day. And when that day comes, I don't even know what I'm gonna do with a dinged up senior car like that either.

I think this is an Asian dad thing.

My dad has had his Lexus RX300 for God knows how long. He doesn't wash it. It's got all kinds of dents, scratches etc. The trunk is full of junk. But for him, as long as it runs and doesn't have any mechanical issues, he doesn't GAF.

The idea of an oil change is excruciatingly painful to him. He doesn't even care about winter tires (we forced him to get a set a while ago.) The irony is he is in the automotive industry and this was a guy who used to work on Indy cars back when it was still in Vancouver. :seriously:

[Badhobz]

Nice rims on that TSX

[EvoFire]

My dad is still on winters, he's waiting on parts for his rear brakes so he'll get it swapped out at the same time.

He's been thinking of getting something new. He's had his Genesis Coupe for 11 years now and will need to start picking up the grandkids come Sept. He's thinking of getting a BMW i3 and I'm like good, that's so much more useful as a car.

Oof. Yeah, my FIL uses some garage mechanic and I'm 99% sure all he does is oil changes and nothing else. Looking my logs before I passed the car to him it's been 5 years since a brake fluid flush and it's due for a brake service and probably spark plugs, coolant flush, and like a valve adjustment. I figure that unless I take it in myself and pay for it that none of that happens.

I’ve always had a soft spot for the 190e. Always found it interesting how the e30 and 190e were market share competitors yet the cars drive so different and are owned by an opposite demographic.

You could go online and find super clean 190e’s all day that are affordable and super comfortable to drive. Yet good luck finding an e30 you could eat off of, they’re all rat bagged

[TopsyCrett]

^ I think E30 Sedan and 190E Sedan, from what I remember as a kid, were driven by similar demographics actually. Correct me if I am wrong!

Also the fact that more E30's were ordered in Manual America side, overall attracted youthful buyers second hand = they become rat bagged. I remember E30's alongside Civics and Eclipses in aftermarket tuning catalogues in the early 00's, making the appeal for youths to choose E30 as a platform even more appealing.

Plus, out of the box, E30 4 cyl is way more fun to drive. 190E base 8v engine / auto trans feels like a tractor engine Lol.

Bro dt commute will ruin it with all the door dings and people who can't drive

I definitely need to PDR the car anyways Lol... it's not perfect. Luckily I am only in Kits area 1-2 times a week, and we have private parking at the office. Truthfully, if I had a new Corolla to daily or something... door dings would hurt me more than it happening to this old thing.

Does the white EF have the JDM front conversion?
I saw a BB6(97-01) Honda Prelude with collector plates the other day. It looked great.

[tofu1413]

Nah. No JDM EF9 front unfortunately.


91 stock front with clear corners. I really dig that JDM ZC hood with the hump. Super rare to see nowadays.

[68style]

I was driving next to that PY ITR on Boundary Rd a couple weeks back in my Supra when I first got it! So nice to see it driven around.

[tofu1413]

The owner of that PY ITR had it since brand new! (I met him back in 2010 actually)

Pretty amazing he resisted modding it all these years and kept it in tip top form.

I saw that PY ITR with a friend at Lansdowne, you know him too tofu.

My CRX from way back had a ZC. Some one had thrown one in a local car and it was honestly one of the best cars I've had, even when I had the shift knob come off in my hand on a 4th to 3rd downshift.

The Recaros are a must; they're way more comfortable than the standard seats.

[68style]

Geez... lovely cars, but $35k is a big ask used when a brand new BRZ/GR86 can be had for the same price.

Driven both ... I think it depends on where you are in life.

IMO top down is a must for me so I wouldn't consider the GR86 for purchase.

As a track car, the GR is probably cheaper to get setup, but if you're tracking the ND a lot, there are a ton of race spares/used bits from the series cars that you can get for cheap.

[Badhobz]

GR is significantly bigger than the ND too. I can sit inside comfortably

I don't know what your preferences are, but I'd opt for a soft top car. You pay more for the RF for less air.

Open air is literally the only reason... or personal preference for styling I guess.

I've had a RF as a rental in Hawaii, which was perfect... and driven a brand new BRZ... the BRZ is way more powerful/fast, at least to my butt dyno anyway.

Maybe slightly less tossable feeling?

This is why we barely see any Miata's anymore though, the prices are just insane especially new. Way beyond what anyone can reasonably pay for a "weekend car" which for most people is all it can ever be.

[AstulzerRZD]

This is why we barely see any Miata's anymore though

Numbers don't look thattt far off - GR86/BRZ sold 14k last year, ND sold 10

In my lil bubble, ND seems to be the #3 choice of car for cupsy Millienial/Gen Zs, behind the Model 3/Y and RAV4.

Seems like every "artsy" tech bro at my company bought one in Soul Red .... there's 5 in my building alone.

That said, these people are making 150k straight outta college

[AstulzerRZD]

I don't know what your preferences are, but I'd opt for a soft top car. You pay more for the RF for less air.

The wind buffeting above 110kmh is kinda annoying, as is the shoulder checking.

I would've bought the soft top too... too bad they gate the "triple layer insulated soft top" to the GT.

[Gerbs]

I wish I fit in the miata, would've bought one too

[Traum]

I love both the ND and the GR86/BRZ, and there are different things I like more in one car or the other. But if it was my own money, I'd go get a Boxster / Cayman. FeelsGoodMan

Jokes aside, between the 2 cars, I'd put my own money behind the BRZ because it has a larger performance-utility envelope than the ND. But if it was their prev gen siblings -- ie. NC vs 1st gen 86/BRZ, I'd go for the NC.

How hard was it to get one of those new? Were they limted or just never sold in great numbers?

they were hard to get. they were very limited (less than 7k worldwide). The plan was to only make about half that but BMW relented and made more.

There were 220 in Canada.

You could do up a fully built 135i for a whole lot less money, and even go as far as building a body clone - but that's not really what this car is.

Historical prices on them have ranged from over MSRP new, to big $ collector grade cars. They've never really traded for less than original MSRP.

Type of car that's tough for some gearhead $$$ brains to accept - i could have bought a much newer M2 comp for the same money. I like these types of cars though (my car taste is all pretty unique low production stuff). I love when big OEM's do small special runs.

Go watch some historical reviews. These were universally loved when new. I've been rewatching those reviews for the past 13 years.

Not sure if it's a forever car - i don't really have room for more of those, but it's special and I'm going to give it a good long chance to make it's case to stay in the garage.

Pretty sure it was limited run, not related to demand. It was built with leftover parts and basically an after hours project by BMW engineers when the people who held those jobs still liked cars.

Couldnt make it back... went home by skytrain all the way to Edmonds

Authentic China menz had a similar setup with a piece of wood. I recall my dad having me sit on that crossbar in Shanghai when I was 5 years old.

I think the pro makes it easier to adjust and take off to use between bikes. The basic is more of a set and forget type deal. There's not really much adjustability to it.

Seller had it posted a couple weeks ago and I went to check it out that weekend and made a good offer but got turned down with a sale date pending for later. Turns out his buddy was very interested but not in town so seller would hold the car as friends do. Luckily for me, buddy couldn't get the wife's seal of approval so I made my move after I was ready to let it go.

i think i saw it go by me yesterday on Boundary - maybe around 1pm?

Cool car - glad somebody went for it.

Sounds about right. Went out for the maiden voyage around that time. Interlagos blue quite eye catching in the sun.

[red kryptonite]

Waiting for the divorce papers any minute now.

Jokes aside, picked up the blue one yesterday. 05 Comp Pack SMG w/ KW Clubsports and Recaro PP's.

Seller had it posted a couple weeks ago and I went to check it out that weekend and made a good offer but got turned down with a sale date pending for later. Turns out his buddy was very interested but not in town so seller would hold the car as friends do. Luckily for me, buddy couldn't get the wife's seal of approval so I made my move after I was ready to let it go.
congrats! i had my eyes on that one too... but really wanted to get back into a manual

[westopher]

Cleaned up the car I have owned since I was 17 (I'm 28 now... jeez time flies) to list for sale. Sigh. Going to miss this thing.

I have a solution for you. Don't sell it.

[asian_XL]

Mini cruise yesterday. Fun to go out for a drive with the top down, also all the kids seemed to enjoy the noises that the S2K makes lol

[Badhobz]

what noise!? those things actually make noise!?

god those cars are almost 20 years old and they still look fresh. car design peaked in the 90s and 2000's. everything modern is so bleh..

[SkunkWorks]

Was technically mine for 5 days. Loved absolutely every single minute of it. The corolla we get here is nowhere near as good.

Moar!!

How did it compare to other stuff you've driven? Was anything unexpected?

[underscore]

I'm curious what makes it so much better than the Corolla.

[Badhobz]

yeh its the same engine. just the ratrolla's a tad bit bigger. I heard people complaining about the GR Yaris's seats (you sit kinda high)

[JDMDreams]

It's way lighter, like 300 pounds, and shorter wheelbase. That's like 3 Japanese girls :ifyouknow:

[Badhobz]

psssh.... 300lbs!? thats like 1 of me. i see no advantages here.

[trollface]

I'm curious what makes it so much better than the Corolla.

Just becasue we cant have it. The japanese crave USDM and we crave JDM.

[320icar]

That’s all modern hot hatches. They all have high seating positions

you need a V12 Ferrari to warm up. :fuckyea:

[68style]

Ferrari doesn't allow people with mere "carports" to purchase their vehicles. Enclosed garage only.

[Badhobz]

^hahahah!!! hilarious.

[JDMDreams]

Revving to redline will help it warm up faster :pokerface:

[dark0821]

why you gotta wait for it to warmup? its not a carb bike is it?

Interesting PRS has always said, always warm up the bike before riding off, apparently the magic number is like 40 to 50 degrees Celsius... having said that, the bike warms up pretty fast, by the time I fit my helmet and gloves, we are basically there.

In the summertime, the moment you crank the bike (from overnight parking), and its already like 27 degrees loool

you need a V12 Ferrari to warm up. :fuckyea:

If only my mortgage renewal isn't coming up in Oct where I will get royally ****** from my current 1.74% lol

Who am I kidding, I cant afford the things you post... yet... just needs to work harder!!

[bcrdukes]

Is that an awning on the roof?

[twitchyzero]

270 degree freestanding one
got some comments on how easy it looks to open and stow
very well built but my biggest gripe is being enticed into buying as walls with mesh windows were coming, just doors unfortunately

Yes, that's 275/40/17 all around. Rubs outside and on the inside :lol. But damn does it stick!

[roastpuff]

Jesus christ 275?!?!

[RabidRat]

Jesus christ 275?!?!

Yeah it was even better when I used to run this ungodly size on Nitto NT01. Unfathomable level of grip, surprisingly streetable, and especially progressive & predictable behavior when it lets go.

[Badhobz]

you sexy rat... thats real sexy mang

those are wider than my man tits.

[immorality]

This is my dream

[dark0821]

The moment I saw that SFASC on the wind deflector.... man you kept it... all these years?!

[hud 91gt]

Nice tundra, any reason why you wouldn’t go to a landscaping yard and fill that bed with bulk vs bagged? That hole looks 3x as expensive as an E46 lol.

[red kryptonite]

thanks!
it was on sale $1.80, normally $5-6/25L. saved myself the mess

[RabidRat]

The moment I saw that SFASC on the wind deflector.... man you kept it... all these years?!

Oh shieet, good eye!! Hell yeah man. :)

Speaking of which... how do we make more of them Revscene stickers?!

[roastpuff]

Do you have an offset bushing or aftermarket UCA/LCA, anything? You could probably get them to tuck a little better by adding more camber. I currently run -3 up front to get my 255/40R17 RT660s to sit a little nicer.

[Badhobz]

YES HOW!? ive been asking this for ages. I missed my opportunity to buy some last time when RS held an actual meat (twassasseessensesesen mills)

[bcrdukes]

Paging rb on how we can get more RS stickers.

That's a great tip. I hadn't even thought of that!

[dark0821]

You guys forgot where I used to work lolol, but then again I don't want to produce without permission.

But if enough people want them, and with permission from the RevScene gurus, I can produce some RevScene stickers for everyone~

[Badhobz]

yes !!!! Do it !

[EvoFire]

I made rice today. Hobz and Duke, tell me what color you see.

[EvoFire]

If you think I have the ability to put on overlays on that headlight, you've got one coming for ya.

[Badhobz]

Looks great !!!! Adds a hint of rally-rice to your whatever coloured car. I love it.

I see a dark purple chameleon. :suspicious:

There's lots of producers of the LED boards now. You basically remove the headlight cap on top, and there's 1 or 2 LED boards depending on your headlight design, cut the boards out and glue in the replacement boards. Voila you now have CSL yellow rings.
