Some guys know nothing about cars

Some guys are really clueless abt cars, and yet they insist they know everything..

 

Guy from work, up here in Japan, I really dont know how he works for Toyota,

 

He saw the engine bay of my Supra, pointing at the brake booster that was shining after my engine clean, he says " Hey, did you fit a new clutch?"

 

Yesterday, he insists that an LSD locks only one wheel on your diff.. I eventually gave up and just left it...

 

I was amazed he actually knew what an LSD is..

its nothing to be ashamed of if you dont understand something, if no one has explained it then how will you know. people that pretend to know stuff when they have no idea really bugs me!

i had a load of boy racers try and tell me i could lower my car even more and telling me what would improve my car. its like mate, seriously, you have a 1.2 polo on steels, why dont you go buy a supra then show me how its done.

they even told me that i should get the twin turbo manifold and put it on my NA, it would be easier than going single using the NA-T manifolds, like WHAT!!!

 

backhander, then walk away my friend, just walk away.... :)

there is 2 of them therefore it must be better. I have a friend that reads evo magazine every month sees himself as a car expert, he can quote figures for any car top speed and is obsessed with the 0-60 times of cars fanstatic on paper, but open the bonnet and he is lost could probably tell me where the battery is.
