On my way back from Skopje, I'm gonna have a 16 hour layover before Frankfurt (arrive at 4:00 pm, leave at 7:00AM).
What could my mom and I do while in Vienna? Also how do we get around n when should we get back lol
I was thinking about buying a RX-8, but I was confused on how to go about getting a engine in a non-runner.
I unfortunately don't have space for a engine install nor rebuild so I called a rotary specialist - and he said used engines are a awful idea (i was thinking of buying used), remanufactured engines are less economical than a rebuild, and to get a RX-8 running its usually AT LEAST TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS
What the fuck? Is that realistic? I really hope not because I really wanted one of these cars but if it's gonna be that expensive, hell no
i was looking at crate motors and saw that a RX-8 engine with good compression and low miles + 6MT is only $2k. Near me a RX-8 with a bad motor is $1k or less.
I'd love to install the motor and transmission myself, but sadly I don't have the space in my garage for it lol.
I was wondering if anybody would have any idea how much it would cost to have a shop install the engine? All they need to do is just put the engine in - it's literally direct plug in.
Honest question. My field pays incredibly well and I'm gonna effectively be able to afford what I want short of a Ferrari or Lambo.
But now I'm stuck and I'm wondering. How the hell do car guys who get money choose what to buy?
You could buy your childhood dream car. Or a modern luxury car. Or a modern sports car. Or anything.
Obviously you dont have some giant 10 car garage. Nor infinite money. So how do you choose?
my whole llife ive honestly been fat. But I'm now at my absolute biggest and I'm tired of being fat. It's compounding on my chronic illnesses.
this year has been frankly awful. it started off with my family in severe dire straits and i was working my ass off as a dishwasher and going to school. well, since my parents werent working (one hospitalized, another fired) the food situation in our house got so bad that many days, all i ate was the shitty school lunch. If i wa lucky? A few scraps at work.
Well, once i finally got my first pay, I began to eat again. And it was good. I was dropping fat fast and gaining a tonna muscle.
Well. That lasted 3 months - boss was gonna fire me to cover his own ass for being a slob, so I stopped working and only went to school (4 hours a day) and couldnt find another job.
Well, unfortunately I've now ballooned to 270 pounds. My gut is ginormous. And I feel horribly insecure everytime I step out the house. Not to mention i sweat so easily.
Ontop of this, I have chronic illnesses and my weight is worsening them.
I really wanna start losing weight, but I'm unsure how to reliably track calories and what workouts to do so I don't just turn skinny as hell.
I should say, fat distribution kinda did me a favor. Hands are fine. Face is fine. Upper body is fine. All my fat is concentrated in my gut and ass. And thankfully, I can still see down there and I don't have giant fat folds. I do have ginormous ugly stretch marks all over and I also wanna figure out what to do about that.
Also, how do I prevent getting a buncha loose skin? I really don't want that.
thank you so much to my mom and dad for moving me tk the FUCKING SUBURBS WHERE THE NEAREST STORE IS A 40 MINUTE WALK AWAY ONE DIRECTION. AND ITS 89 DEGREES WITH 50% HUMIDITY IN MAY.
I don't know what to do. There's literally nothing here. Ive applied to over 20 jobs, called places, nothing.
There's no bus. No train. My bike got stolen and i cant afford a new one. No shuttle. Absolutely nothing. Literally my only choice is uber which keeps getting more and more expensive.
I don't know what the fuck to do. My family is completely and utterly useless. They refuse to help at all. They will not help me. Not one member of my family.
I've applied to so many places. I applied to over 20 walmarts at once. Zero calls. Nothing. Absolutely fucking nothing.
My parents hound me to get my license i begged them to pay for when i was 15. But what good does a license do me? I don't have a car to drive. I can't drive my moms car since she acts like her Nissan is a fucking Maybach and won't let anyone touch it.
I don't know what to do. I need to pay off my debt which has destroyed my credit score. But then im going to fucking europe in early july even though i told my mom not to book me a ticket.
I don't know what to do. I have job experience. Im an adult. Im a highschool grad.
If I don't have a car by August I can't even go to college.
I'm gonna buy a car soon, and I'm honestly considering whether to buy a BMW E92 335i (only 2011+) cash, OR use the money as a downpayment for a B9 Audi A5 (around $25k used).
I'm looking for a fun ass daily honestly lol.
I'm fine with maintence. I work on cars myself, and both these cars won't be bad maintence wise for me.
I like both. The E92 looks good as hell, isn't too old, has an amazing engine, and hydraulic steering. But the B9 A5 looks even better, is modern, one of the greatest inline fours ever made, and has that amazing dual clutch transmission.
Honestly, I'm unsure which to go with. I'd tune both and mod em a lil. Not like a serious project, but def some stuff - downpipe, intake, exhaust, seats, tune, etc.
i graduare tomorrow and got 7 people (me and my guests) and wanna go eat somewhere.
honestly just want good food.
any recommendations? we're in the northern DFW but dont mind going into dallas.
nothing SUPER expensive.
so far all we've considered is korean bbq in carrolton, but its $35 per person which might be too much.
im interested in getting into doing security - part time or full time i dont really care. preferably something overnight and where its not busy.
any advice? i dont wanna be armed at all and have no experience
I grew up in the white suburbs and honestly just felt a horrible disconnect to everyone around me.
Honestly, I'm tired of being here and wanna move out. All I'm really looking for is
1 bedroom 500 sq ft minimum
$1000 rent or cheaper
So long as I ain't gotta worry about being mugged or my car being broken into its fine (my cars a shitbox anyway)
Closer to Dallas
Good and cheap food and groceries
More Latino majority place
I (18) and my best friend (19) are looking to get an apartment together. I go to school at Collin College technical campus & he works in East McKinney.
Our only real requirements is 1000+ sq ft and 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Preference for equal size. Also cheap utilities and high speed internet.
Any suggestions? Max we'll pay combined is like $1800, not that we wanna hit that.
We're both fine with some commute. And we don't wanna live in McKinney or Frisco or Anna or Melissa. We'd honestly prefer to be nearer actual shit to do.
