    Careful with the rain stick, it's an imprecise piece of equipment and you might wind up with mudslides somewhere nearby if you overdo it.

      What's with pop tunes getting so popular? I live about a third of a mile from a highway and being at home so much I'm hearing pop tuned cars a few times per week. I've seen a few of the culprits, a couple of GTIs, a ford hatchback and a 4 cylinder AMG mercedes, but there's what sounds like a 6 cylinder car running around with one too. All are extremely loud, like 2 step/antilag loud, not normal overrun crackle loud. I wonder how long their exhaust manifold gaskets and turbos will last.
      Yeah, EVERYONE and their fucking dog is getting one. I basically started the trend in my town with my Neon, but that was just stock. Shit sounded nice on mine, though I actually considered getting a WOT box, but for actual WOT shifting and the 2-step would've had legit use for the launch. Sold it before I could do that though. The Jeep gives me some pops sometimes, but not active shooter level.

        Yeah, this is the least amount of rain / monsoon season we've ever had.

        Like almost no rain in the Phoenix area. When it does it's barely a drizzle.

        Setting new record high temps every week. Dislike.

          Survived the hurricane.
          Only a yard full of debris, good amount of rain, but never lost power.

          Winds have died down, and the rain stopped, she's past us.

          Lake Charles got hit pretty hard though, lots of destruction. I wonder how the area closer to the coast looks today.
          I do things.

              Haha, I've heard those gas masks have asbestos in the filter.

                Someone brought that up, he said the mask in this kit is Israeli so no issues there and they are 5 years old.
                Edit: looks like in the post he is using an Israeli mask, but the ebay listing has the Russian. Sorry not familiar with the differences.

                  Makes sense. Genuine Soviet equipment would be 30 years old. I doubt any rubber would be looking that good at that age.

                    Been in an E92 M3 for a few days now.. such a great car..

                    You really feel the 295 ft lbs tho lol, but a v8 at 8.5k RPM is ALMOST as nice as a lowly M20 hehehe

                          You won't be disappointed

                          Maybe when it's time for rod bearings.

                          Some people do that service as routine maintenance, but who cares.. v8 3 series with a 6 speed.

                            V8 M3 is a dream, even if they are heavy compared to older car. Pretty hard to beat that engine in a modern car with air bags and multi link suspension. Am I crazy to consider the DCT as comparable to a stick in terms of fun.

                              I love driving a DCT car hard. So fun to bomb a turn, brake hard into ABS while quickly blipping down the gears like a rally car.
