If you used the correct terms in some of those situations, half the people reading your post or listening to you in person would be lost.
This was great!!!
"Why a damper is called a "shock absorber" is as mysterious to us as why Brian O'Conner spun out his Eclipse while driving in a straight line in the parking lot of the Rose Bowl in The Fast and the Furious."

"Darwin didn't account for welfare" - Shane916
those are nice definitions to make you sound smart.I think you gotta more know what they are and do,then what it's called.And just to clear thigs up,brian spun out because of the manifold pressure,and when he fried the pistons because of to much NAWWZ(he was running to bottles,and the big one)the NAWWWZ leaked out of piston NO.1 and the impulse from the NAWWZ made him spin out.
hi, I'm the idiot behind the wrench.
I'm pretty sure that spin out was in the parking lot of Dodger Stadium...Not that I've seen the movie or anything.Originally Posted by 98spydert

Where was this article prior to the The Fast and the Feeble
If you and I do it, it's called racketeering and extortion... when cops do it, it's called law enforcement.

am i the only one that realized brian spun out cause he ran out of room? im pretty sure no stadium is long enough to get up to 160 and have enough distance to stop. i think it was just a dramatic way for him to stop, he said shit cause he couldnt get faster than that before he had to slam on the brakes.
ill still call them shocks or struts. damper just doesnt fit in right in a conversation, it puts a whole damper on things. but i stopped saying nos after F&F, i usually correct people when they say "i need to get nos" im like "you mean nitrous". and intercooler sounds better than aftercooler anyways, but i always remember you intercool a turbo, aftercool a supercharger(centrifugal type at least). even though its the same thing, different setups call it differently.
