At a stop light (before it turned green) driving mine. Woman admiring how bold I was being - so close to the car in front of me! Y’all think she left enough space in front of her - semi truck or tractor trailer size? No blinker on or wanting to get over.

*(If I wasn’t turning left, it’s always fun pulling up into the space in front of them. No finger gestures, honking or being a dick about it. Just slide in and let them think ?…. if another car (3 in this case) can fit up there, maybe, just maybe, I could pull up further next time??? Doubtful, but still fun to do ?)*

Bet she leaves her grocery cart in the empty spot next to her.
How many grocery carts would fit in that gap up to the crosswalk? 15, 30, 90!?! What got me was all that real estate in front of her. Unfortunately she’s not the only one… ?

One of my pet peeves. WTF is wrong with people? Meanwhile some poor sap 300 yds away is hung out in traffic, trying to get into a turn lane because of this ignoramus.

Good catch! Could it be a warning sensor? Or maybe she changed her mind. Because no blinker was on prior to when I pulled up. And she was sitting still ?. So I went slowly and just sat there. Further back than I normally would have, to give her room to pull in ahead of me, if she wanted to do so. I assume everyone out there is out to hit ya. But it didn’t happen. So I had plenty of time to grab my phone and used it as a photo op instead ?

Also as I watched in my rear view mirror prior to turning. She was still sitting there. No one was behind me either ?‍♂

Just received some new traction arms from seems legit garage (they call them fork arms). I already have traction arms so these can sit on the back burner a bit, but i like the fact that these are non-adjustable - i think the only ones on the market like that. No sense in introducing an extra alignment DOF that doesnt need to exist. The fact that they are ultra thick with FK rod bearings is secondary.

yeah it seems they're heavily into the bmw drift community, especially with stuff like ford rear end swaps. One thing that seems interesting to me is they have a rear bump steer correction kit that treats the issue by having offset bushings for the inboard side of the toe link. Problem is I am not very well versed in suspension kinematics, so I can't say for sure if what they posted is correct

Today I've been busy. I installed my new rear GR badge with black letter G and black border to match my black "T" emblem and the black to-be Supra emblem I have on order arriving soon. Also, added new personalized license plate along with a new plate frame. Then I added new GR gloss black wheel center caps. Then I installed the GR emblem I removed from the rear of the car onto my steering wheel for a steering wheel emblem. It's temporary though. I'm trying to decide if looks too big on the steering wheel. Thoughts?? Is it too large for the steering wheel?
