"What made you decide to give up daily driving a manual sports car?"

I haven't given up yet. I have a 2013 Scion FR-S and a 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser 4x4. Both are 6spd manual.

I'm a fan of Clive bags from early 2000s. Here are 2 day-packs that I alternate between.

I went with Bragi The Headphones which I got from eBay for about $125 new. They sound good, no audio-video sync issues, they fit snuggly, they look slick, and battery life is good. For the price, I...

I've never driven one but I imagine it being just as slow as the C-HR, HRV, CX-3, or any cars in that segment based on their specs.

if small cars are more your thing and want good highway stability, the crosstrek would be a good choice for being a small crossover with boxer engine for low center-of-gravity. although I would go...

Was in the market of trying out some truly wireless headphones and after going through some YouTube comparison reviews I decided to get the Bragi The Headphones headphones.
They are priced well at...

I'm not an expert but try oiling the garage door hinges and rollers and see if that helps. I'm guessing the upper hinges are causing a lot of resistance tripping the motor when the door reaches the...

i didn't have any of those add-ons.

if they come out with the same version they have in EU with AWD, 1.2L turbo, LED tail lights, and blue interior styling, i might consider one.

my bad. $688 for nitrogen. fuckin crooks.

i bought my car in 2013 from Stampede and they told me lies about financing insurance being mandatory and added hidden costs like $500 for nitrogen in the tires. the cost breakdown of the car and...

as i'm having more days off this winter, i picked up a skibig3 season pass during the fall sale.
it's supposed to snow 11-13cm tonight in banff so i'll be heading to sunshine tomorrow morning.

I was there last Monday Nov 7. There are barely any exposed rocks unlike how Louise usually is early in the year. It didn't snow for a few days so it was hard-packed. Banff avenue downhill of the...

on my drive from medicine hat to calgary on sunday afternoon, i saw a flock about 100-150 flying northbound. it was probably closer to medicine hat than calgary.

Managed to find a new, never used Burton Audex Link jacket that came out in 2006/2007.
I've hunted for this jacket for years on eBay.

Also picked up a bigger & wider board from The Source's...

just got a $310 fine yesterday. whoopee!
I wish they sent out one last piece of mail to inform people about this change.

my 65L PacSafe backpack has a flap that unrolls from a hidden pocket at the bottom and zips up the entire backside hiding the shoulder and waist straps inside. all other straps include elastic...

Winter is coming.

I have the Sony SBH70 and use mine on a daily basis at the office and home.

Bought an unlocked Z3+ off ebay and did not like it.
when i opened the camera app, i immediately got the message saying "phone will restart if phone contintues to overheat". turns out that after...

The magnetic charging port was the best thing Sony offered in their phones. Such a shame they decided to get rid of it in favor of a thinner phone. The phone charges significantly faster while...

when it hits me, it hits me hard. luckily it hasn't hit me yet this year.

but what i do is while getting into bed at night, take:
-claritin nasal spray
-claritin 24-hr tablet + glass of water...

it's very reliable but a bit heavy for my liking. might just be the 2jz and all the luxury features in the IS doing that though, haven't driven a 4 cyl. altezza to compare.

Inductive charging would probably take a really long time to charge. I don't think we can get 120 gigawatts of wireless charging anytime soon, but would be an interesting concept if it's made...

take into account the heater is electric... that means instant heat!

i also just found out about their battery swaps at tesla (supercharger) stations:http://www.teslamotors.com/batteryswap

I own an FRS too and I agree with the statements above.
It's a great platform to build off of for tracking like low COG, lightweight, and great chassis... and it leaves a lot of room for future...

no new technology here.. just a fancy way to show off some technology that many other manufacturers already have. reminds me of apple's marketing strategy..

hated how kitkat no longer supported adobe flash, so i went back to 4.3.

i did mine myself in the garage on jack stands with hand tools. it took maybe 4 hours to install H&R super sports on my FR-S.

just a heads up:

you'll need a pass-thru gear ratchet and a long...

i'll need to try wow chicken now..

my favorite is still Chicken Delight in Winnipeg.
Best chicken and gravy.

i got the chirping happen to me once and it was at around 17,000 kms when I filled with Petro somewhere on the hwy in Saskatchewan. i quickly went to the next available Shell and I never got the...

i haven't counted but i'm at about 3/13, but have only won coffees.

i believe the same 'tool' was featured in Dragons' Den. am i right? i didn't think the guy got the dragons' to invest in it.

haven't driven an STI, but rode in one (93-94 RHD). suspension parts for the ST205 is a bit pricey (yet still easily accessible) since no other Toyota shares the same superstrut suspension. not...

did anyone notice the rims are a lot easier to roll this year? or is it just me?

i followed the steps to the roll-on roll-off method on jdmvip.com and imported a 95 gt-four from japan myself. no importer, no broker. the car itself was $2300 but after all the fees, it came to...
