The obvious answer is that performance vehicles be ranked by their compensatory ranking, as measure by 12(peak torque in pound-feet)/(curb weight in pounds).

This is my friend Lea's E30. It is minty as gently caress and it should be, he's a car detailer by trade.

Those wheels are loving great. They're so 80s my pants just ballooned out like an opening parachute.

Yeah I can dig the wheels, they're a unique look but not OMG RIMZZZZZ *blingee gif* type of unique. Though the lugs should be the same color front and back.

Wheels are rad though? The low look isn't my thing but I assume it can be undone easy enough, otherwise it wouldn't be very minty now would it

IOwnCalculus posted:Yup. I remember the tires on my dad's new 1994 Camaro seemed impossibly this at the time, and they were 245/50R16. poo poo, I remember the 50-series Gatobacks on 'mid-'80s Camaros and Corvettes being a revelation. Before that, only supercars had tires that low profile. Somehow, I actually have *3* 10mm 3/8" drive sockets. Because I found all the ones people lost at the wrecking yard. One of them's even a Snap-On. Brilliant.

For a second I was unsure if the M1 was AWD, but I guess that dude just did two separate burnouts leaving his garage. A good owner. Edit: oh duh, I didn't even notice the circuit of the Americas sign up there.

SquirrelGrip posted:guy who owns ebisu circuit uses the same s15 for rally/drift/time attack with different a suspension setup and wheels swapped in yeah pro drift cars are  big power is necessary at competition level because the tracks they go to its normal to be in/around 4th gear to even consider sliding through them which is nuts at a grassroots level there doesn't seem to be nearly as many V8 swaps compared to stock engines and stuff like the hydro handbrakes are more for ease of use and novelty sake than anything. like lol you can make those things extend to the steering wheel and feather them with 2 fingers for pinpoint tweaking. its considerably cheap too. phone postin' so here's an example in a local s13:   and thats about it other than your usual coilovers and minimum safety stuff in case they want to track it. running on stock ka24de iirc  suspension is first and foremost. i see people investing more in steering angle than horsepower while regularly sliding around in stock engines by relying on the clutch to break the wheels loose which is where the real beauty of low end drifting comes from.

WTF 7mm the only time I find a 7mm socket (which I've never consciously purchased) is when I need an 8, and I only find 6 and 9mm when I needed a 7 (gently caress you, Ford).

Falken posted:I would give my left nut for a good condition (rust free) E30. "Rust free" doesn't seem to be that hard. Mine has hardly any rust at all, but was in an accident before I got it (which I knew about, the driver's rocker panel is dented up under some bondo and the drivers door doesn't fit quite right), and I'm pretty sure the guy I bought it from subscribed to "PO Douchebaggery Weekly" newsletter. An example: leaky heater core, which he "fixed" by clamping a vice-grip to it and painting the whole assembly with some sort of rubber cement or RTV. I still have the vice-grip. They're fun cars, but I want to be rid of mine mostly because of the scene around them and how hard it is to get junkyard parts because of that.

I drove the regular rwd 2.0L Giulia today and it's almost as good as the QV but 2/3rds the price. Same amazing steering, same amazing shift paddles, and it's quite frisky in the rain. No one should buy a 3-series/A4/C Class over one. Also, the Stelvio is like a hot hatch, not an SUV, the NSX is spectacular (but softer than an Audi R8 V10 Plus), and the LC500 sounds so, so good.
