HeavenlyBang: I don't think there's anything wrong with asking what car to buy and giving your preferences. My main gripe is more with how tangential most of the post is.
Lost me at the paragraph when he started talking about his education. Completely irrelevant and, in my opinion, potentially a sign of an unfocused, wandering mind. Apt |

AutoElectNG: Gazzuzz has been good to me.
He made one very public display of affection/kindness towards me when someone wanted to bring me down on these streets.
He privately offered to do another that I resisted. Someday he will come to appreciate why I said no to the second offer.
But I deeply appreciated both offers. He really is a wonderful person. |

HeavenlyBang: I'm not a big fan of the GT63s, really. I'd much rather have the smaller, more fun AMG GT-C
Agree that Nissan needs to update its lineup. Thankfully, a new Z is coming next year. After 12 years, smh. I'm still looking to having an affair with the 05 or 06 350z. I hope the over a decade wait will be worth it. |
Car Talk › Re: 2020 C8 Corvette vs Nissan GT-R vs Mercedes-AMG GT63 S // Drag and Roll Race by oride: 3:33pm On Jul 22, 2020 |
HeavenlyBang: It's absolutely ridiculous, especially since that isn't even the Nismo. A Nismo probably wins the rolling race too. But yeah, we need an R36.
Current-gen AMGs are essentially muscle cars tbh. That GT63s is something else. No surprises here with the GTR but my eyes and heart are with the AMG. Also, Nissan seems to be on a downward slope. They have neither improved older models nor introduced newer ones. |

asamwababy: No offence sir.
You fail to realise that some naija used re better than toks.
You clearly bought a faulty vehicle simple.
As you mentioned water rushing behind your dash,your gasket made up of two layers has separated and allowed water into your engine block.
If you like change everything and leave the gasket you re just buying time for the katakata that will eventually happen. I mentioned earlier that the gaskets be replaced but.... |

Samtobh: Car never overheated.
Just that coolant disappears quickly after refill
2 gallons bought within 3 weeks.
That was a pointer something is wrong somewhere.
Ran some diagnostic scans, no fault codes at all. Samtobh: First time it overheated, it didn't last up to 10 minutes nor did they temperature gauge reach the bold red mark. Cooled for an hour and took me home, drove almost 45 minutes.
No water droplets when you crank the engine.
Car runs smooth.
Only issue is water in the radiator flows back to the coolant container, makes the radiator go out of water and then engine overheats Which is it? |
Car Talk › Re: Club-Lexus by oride: 5:51pm On Jul 06, 2020 |
Samtobh: I posted this earlier and no response helped.
Car overheated.
Radiator leaked at the top
A good mechanic worked on it and sealed the top
Problem persisted
Changed radiator cap
Still same issue
Today, just bought a brand new double cell radiator.
same issue still
After driving for about 10 minutes, temperature gauge stays at middle point and doesn't leave there but immediately you switch off the engine, the coolant reservoir is bubbling hot and full to the brim (meanwhile it contained little coolant before driving)
Men and brethren, the son of man is tired 
Car was bought at superb condition mid-May.
Also, dashboard heats up a lot and on cranking the engine, it's like a rush of water happens behind the dashboard.
What seest thou? Burnt gasket bruh. |

Gabapentin: lol
your problem is more than just plain ignorance
your problem is malicious and malignant ignorance and naivete
there is so much that you don't know, you're showing a screenshot about the Nissan Skyline and you think you're insulting heavenlybang's Infiniti because it's based on a car as legendary as the skyline
your ignorance runs deep . I'm still in shock over his assertions that a 2005 C class is better than a 2015 Corolla. |

Ikenna351: Then my videos and articles are not meant for you, if you think I have to change to a certain way you want for you to be pleased to read my articles or posts and watch my videos. My online activities (posts, articles & videos) reflect who I AM, the authentic me, the Ikenna351 Lion King Monk, my perspectives and life choices. I don't edit my videos or script them, for public acceptance. I don't produce presentable videos as the norm or majority would expect. I produce Ikenna351, Lion King - Monk videos the way I want them to be, even if millions or majority don't like them or find them uninteresting to watch. If pleasing and doing things the way the majority want everyone to do is my interest, I wouldn't be a Monk, non religious, non-conformist, driving Peugeot Vehicles and preach about them. Some people have ended up appreciating my boring posts, articles and videos, years after I published them, when it made sense to them and they started benefiting from them.
I didn't create that YouTube channel to gain millions of views, followers and subscribers. If I was interested in gaining millions of subscribers and views in my YouTube channel, I wouldn't be discussing Peugeot brand and other subjects I talk about in that channel.
I would suggest any man who finds my videos & articles boring to stop watching and reading them. There are thousands or millions of presentable videos on YouTube you can spend your time on. My videos are meant to reach 1 out of the many/millions. I have limited time to breath in this physical time. So I live it exactly how I want it.
Ikenna351, Lion King - Monk I understand that the fast decaying cartalk section has made you to be so defensive but you need to calm down and realise when criticisms may be constructive. The gentleman you quoted raised a very valid point. Your videos, however knowledge filled they are, can be quite repetitive and dreary. All the same, very insightful thread. |
