Yaaaaas. Fresh podcast for my ride to work!! If I walk into a parts store in my work clothes, I feel judged everytime, but if I walk in in scum bag clothes covered in oil, I'm treated normally. But I worked at autozone in college so I get it. Lol
Bro, this. Every time I've shown up in clean clothes I get talked to like I'm stupid. I come in covered in road dirt and smelling like 15yr old diff fluid I get treated like god
For most of the public reps don’t matter if all you want is looks, even maybe half of enthusiasts don’t care unless you lie and brag about them. It’s much cooler to have more than a couple of set of wheels and switch it up regularly.
Another good podcast I also have some topics if you guys want to talk about: *Will your guys generation have an appropriate for classic cars from 1930’s-1970’s *What is considered a classic car *If you guys had all the money in the world what car would you buy and what racing event would you take it to *What makes a good car meet *What was the car scene like when you guys first started and how has it changed *Also not a topic but I think it’ll be cool if guys brought your significant other on the podcast and ask them how do they feel about your car hobby
As someone who worked at several dealerships as a detailer, the mechanics always use customer cars for everything. I seen them go to lunch, do to the grocery store, go buy cigarettes, even take them home after work. They are sketchy lol
Hey gang! Question for your next episode: what Honda/acura model would each of you pick that’s relatively affordable, and how would you modify it to be a fun street machine? And why that model?
The Festival Of Speed actually takes place on a driveway up to the Goodwood Estate started by Lord March. Its not a purpose built track interestingly enough. It was started in 1993
I own some Work, SSR, and Hayashi's and always try to buy brand new. Hayashi in particular because they're much smaller, sell direct, and being one of the OG Japanese wheels. I'm a wheel snob on my own cars and never run rep parts but I don't give anyone a hard time about it unless you're out here lying lol.
I have factory gmc wheels on my truck that look similar to TE37s once you declad the chrome off them. I had stickers made up that say "Chevy Racing" and "GM Engineering". Don't hate me lol
Would love to see Pontiac come back. More competition in performance cars would be awesome, but we all know they would just make 20 different models of crossover and name them Firebird and GTO.
I have been a lifelong bank career and everything you speak Alex is the damn truth. People don’t understand how crazy people’s requests are at banks. Also you are right that men want to sit down and discuss loans with other men but do not like to discuss their accounts with other men.
Martini has the same process i do, knowledge first, function second, design third. Id love some BBS or Enkei but id just be throwing money away with what i do with the car.
Is there any information on the Drag DR46 wheel? Like where its made its construction its weight (15x7 +42)...Ive seen conflicting information on the weight. Is there any information on Drag extreme alloys company information, their relationship to Discount Tire where thyre made where they're from etc. I know the wheel is not the best but I was just curious about it ....I bought a set in 2011 and still have them. Its what I could afford at the time and I was exposed to them from a full page add in Honda Tuning Magazine. This was before the term reps came up...I have in mind to get the originals which are Work Meister 15x7 4x100 plus whatever offset above 33-42. Black face, machined lip two piece. Thos will be later after I fix many things on the car and learn how to actually drive in auto x.
I've bought the $1000 tint for 2 of my cars. Is it worth it? Mildly. For a one time buy on a car that I'm keeping forever, most definitely. I also bought a daily driver with cheap tint already installed. Am I going to replace it? Hell no.
Man I love jnc’s and XXR wheels I had good experience with both brands over the last 10 years… I think your little bias on the JNC because your profit margin is small because there 160 each
I will say my car is on avid1s but I know they’re reps abs they’re not full on race wheels but they’re decent I’ve hit a whole lot of potholes lol but whole build is nice I swear lol
@@Hakiri27 I don't my truck sits all the time. Sometimes AutoZone doesn't know what they are talking about. I had a 2007 Honda Accord at one point and that sat for a month and it started right up when I drove it again
I just recently got married and both my wife and I are car people. How can I convince her to modify a car. Would love to hear an answer on the next podcast
@@KSwapTheWorld69 she bought her mustang already modified. She won't let me do anything to my 2000 f150 Harley Davidson edition because it is all original and has low miles. I keep telling her I want to do stuff to it because I always had a vehicle I could modify
@@swankrides825you gotta think: do you think the Harley f150 will bring in more than what it costs? Probably not, it's the same thing as a normal f150 with just a few bells and whistles... I say slam it on the ground, put on some 22 inch 3 Spokes and keep it just like that! 🤣
If it is safe to run and not a shyt company….run it, like Alex stated, “build the complete package”. $9000 wheels on a $500 bucket built pile, you lost the point.
God forbid I go to advanced and ask for anything for my s13 that's not oem. I just learned not to even tell them 240. I got that how do you know it's gona work alot.
So if. I get this right we don't want JNC because it's a rep, and cheap. I've followed all three of you for a while now, and even submitted my submission back when you did the viewer car comparison. I've owned JNC and I could care less about the names on these over 5k rims that I can get for less than half.from another brand. Remember that your opinion can push young enthusiasts, we live in a free country I get it but dang I did not expect that from you guys. Also, for the trolls. Yes I owned and own JNC rims, I roll on track with it, I drive on the street and I've had if for five years...

Mann autozone is the lifesaver here in Vegas, we have one on Decatur that stays open 24hrs if your ever in town

Hate going to autozone, it’s always like they don’t know anything, or don’t care to really help you
Not to mention they are raping you with their prices.
O'Reilly or Advance are the best imo. Maybe NAPA too? I can't say because I've never been.
Mornin’ boys 🤠 ☕️

Valino tires is Drift specific tires in their Ebisu and Pregea tires. Accelera also put out the 351 GR drift tire.
The Festival Of Speed actually takes place on a driveway up to the Goodwood Estate started by Lord March. Its not a purpose built track interestingly enough. It was started in 1993

'Morning Y'all! 😄 I'm here with my Infused Gatorade, I'm so glad I ask off for this day! 😄

Hate dealerships, they up sell on stuff so much. Quoted me $600 for a evo x transmission fluid
ahhh hell nah ! they scamming like shit
I own some Work, SSR, and Hayashi's and always try to buy brand new. Hayashi in particular because they're much smaller, sell direct, and being one of the OG Japanese wheels.

Hey also, how come I can't add my car to the build threads? I don't see any option to on the website. Thanks guys. Keep up the good stuff!
First, Happy Friday everyone 🎉
As for drift tires accelera is designing drift specific tires. The new 351 sport gd is a good Example
I have factory gmc wheels on my truck that look similar to TE37s once you declad the chrome off them. I had stickers made up that say "Chevy Racing" and "GM Engineering". Don't hate me lol

The first enkeis I bought were cast and I didn't know for like 2 years.
I just bought Vors TR4s for my tC, and I didn't even know they were reps, now I don't know if I made a bad choice 😭
The new NSX was a worthy successor imo
Martini has the same process i do, knowledge first, function second, design third. Id love some BBS or Enkei but id just be throwing money away with what i do with the car.
Its not summer jobs, its service jobs in general. All service jobs since covid have divebombed
Is there any information on the Drag DR46 wheel? Like where its made its construction its weight (15x7 +42)...Ive seen conflicting information on the weight.

Cheap tint won’t protect your interior like we thought 15 years ago
How do you feel about Motegi?
I will say my car is on avid1s but I know they’re reps abs they’re not full on race wheels but they’re decent I’ve hit a whole lot of potholes lol but whole build is nice I swear lol
I think my 86 needs some ecsO2.
autozone told me you need to hookup a battery to a battery tender if your car sits for more then 2 days, that pissed me off
@@Hakiri27 I don't my truck sits all the time. Sometimes AutoZone doesn't know what they are talking about. I had a 2007 Honda Accord at one point and that sat for a month and it started right up when I drove it again

Don't convince her, modify yours and ask her "for help."
@swanrides825 ^^^ this if she's a car girl she will help you because SHE wants to.
@@KSwapTheWorld69 she bought her mustang already modified. She won't let me do anything to my 2000 f150 Harley Davidson edition because it is all original and has low miles. I keep telling her I want to do stuff to it because I always had a vehicle I could modify

@@swankrides825it sounds like you need a new girl 🤣

Oriellys......auto parts ....for th W
So if. I get this right we don't want JNC because it's a rep, and cheap.
I've followed all three of you for a while now, and even submitted my submission back when you did the viewer car comparison.
I've owned JNC and I could care less about the names on these over 5k rims that I can get for less than half.from another brand. Remember that your opinion can push young enthusiasts, we live in a free country I get it but dang I did not expect that from you guys.
Also, for the trolls. Yes I owned and own JNC rims, I roll on track with it, I drive on the street and I've had if for five years...
21:00 this hits too close 😭
Things you don't hear at the track....anything about "reps".
Pontiac 100%
🚔🚔
Revive Saturn bruh
goodwood is a dude's driveway
I love the Motegi Tracklites even though a lot of people shit on them for being “rep”
I got a 2017 Nissan Sentra…. They just keep bullying me to sell it 🫠
Absolutely deserved 😂
