My dodge charger daytona comes in Black to gray wheels… i thought of making a bit of contrast and paint wheels to smth between white and silver
What yall think?
My perosnal view that i liked the change… but afraid it looks so bad later.
Purchased this 2018 hellcat charger from an auction. I thought it would be cool to make a sleeper hellcat build. Next up I plan to add a GT/scatpack hood,paint the brakes black,and add fog lights. Let me know what yall think. I’m a big mopar guy have have owned several SRT’s over the years. Love the platform.
As you may know, listening to prolonged noise above 85dB will cause irreversible hearing damage and tinnitus (and as an audio engineer that's a no-no). I tested volumes using a decibel meter (honestly unsure if it's set to dBA or dBC, unfortunately), using mastered metal songs as my subjects, with my phone's Bluetooth setting set to full volume.
What I found was, with Spotify (set to normal volume on the in-app settings), 24 should be the highest volume you set your car system to. That averages out to 84dB, with some peaks up to 89dB, but those were brief. Being that both Spotify and YouTube Music normalize their music to -14LUFs, it's safe to say that 24 is a good max for YTM, as well. Apple Music, on the other hand, maxes out at -16LUFs, so you could probably safely push your system to 25 or 26.
The outlier here is if you listen to MP3s or WAVs directly off of your phone's music player. If the songs are mastered (IE brickwalled, with a limiter ceiling of -1dB), then these will be insanely loud. For you to achieve safe volumes with these you'll have to set your cars system to 18. That will, again, average out to 84dB.
All tests were done with my engine on, in idle (5.7 HEMI, no mods. Obviously cold air intake, or modding the muffler/exhaust system is going to affect over all dB). You also will want to turn off the Speed Adjusted Volume setting in the audio menu. That just cranks up the volume when you drive at higher speeds. Noise on top of noise...
So, assuming we all have the same radios/speakers:
Spotify and YouTube Music: 24
Apple Music: 26
Mastered music directly off of your device: 18
My car was broken into and my valuables in the center console are now gone including a hand gun. Im seeking advice on how I could prevent this from happening again. I’m getting some cameras to set up around my house. The rear passenger window was completely removed and the alarm didn’t go off a single time. Is there any good security systems I could install on my car? I have a lock that goes from the break pedal to the steering wheel so I don’t think anyone would be able to steal the car themself unless they try sawing at it for a while but yeah. If you have any advice on car security options that would be great
I know the hemi is the V8 engine in every performance dodge vehicle but I'll be confused by the badging because some Chargers will just have HEMI on the side while others have R/T. Is it the case of the LT1 vs SS? Or is it just a Badging thing?
- LT1 Camaro is just the Camaro with a V8 and none of the suspension tuning from factory that the SS has, just in case someone didn't know.
Was thinking of trading my GT for this 2018 Daytona 392. But I think it ain’t worth it what yall think? The 2018 has over 115k miles to my 53k. The 2018 does have some dings and some minor damage on the rear left side. But the purple is a neck breaker lol
I want to ask yall what do you think, I’m planing to trade my 2022 Gt premium with 30k miles to 80k miles challenger Rt 2018 .
Caught a rainbow peaking through the clouds…
The RT has 97k miles for 4.4k and the 300C have 130k for 5.5k. The 300C is nice and cleaner looking obviously and i still have to ask how many idle hours are on the charger. But what do yall think
While my car was in for service they pointed out my cracked tail light and I said I’d install it myself after the service if they sold me the part.
$809+tax for one tail light, I busted out laughing. “What the heck is this thing made of, gold?” I told the guy I’d just get the one off Amazon for under a quarter of the price
$158 with free shipping, slight difference in body gaps but un noticeable unless I told you to look at it.
How can dealerships sell parts at that much of an inflated price, this blew my mind. Especially since they already make a killing on shop rates and sales.
Why even stock the parts for (other than warranty work) if you’re priced out by literally every other seller
Hey guys, sorry for the repetitive post about engine noise but lately I've been quite paranoid about the infamous Hemi tick. Does anything sound off? This is a relatively cold start. What other symptoms should I look for besides the ticking if it's the hemi tick?
I was in a hit and run and my insurance had lapsed a couple of days before I could pay it and smack smh but thankfully my body shop was able to bring her back to life 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Just bought these brass monkey wheels that I want to eventually powder coat matte silver
Just got it back this morning, I wanted to get tint done. But apparently new tint laws were passed here, and they're trying to figure out what they can legally do.
