I've done Auto to Manual swaps in 2 cars, a old ford probe GT that i bought on a mechanics lien for 600$ and rebuilt the head, then blew the trans and had a donor car so swapped right over and helping on a 16 mustang GT again with a donor car. both those cars had plates for the block offs where...

My boss ribs me all the time, Lives off the Hudson around Yonkers area. Guess they didn't have any of the bad weather Buffalo got though. My second winter in Illinois I'm like I can't believe people want to live in this stuff and that there are people farther north than this.. I'm heading my ass...

Ahhh the age old "you don't know what cold is" from the people up north. I lived in Illinois for 2 years, keep the snow and shoveling out your vehicles and the 4 months of everything being shades of grey. I'll keep my hoodie as the only thing needed here in the desert. Correct we may not know...

I've had issues flashing my own car twice, once when I was returning it back stock to go get some warranty work, and I didn't want anything to affect anything else, and then again when putting back the flash. both times it was like the phone, app, or dongle timed out after a while. I restarted...

You’ll be fine, it’s not something I’d do on a regular basis. But not everyone warms up their cars properly (and I don’t mean 10-15-20 mins idling) and rips them. If you ever get a chance to see dyno engine testing, you’d be shocked (maybe) at what they do to these engines. There was a video...

Tech support for a key programmer locksmiths use to program keys and key fobs in cars. Still do some install work for a shop, was a ASE tech for decades then electronics tech with Raytheon.

My son got a MK6 GTI last year for 11k a 2012 im pretty sure with a DSG. all serviced at the dealer from the PO. has been a great car and ive seriously thought about getting one. i enjoy hooning around in his. I had a 15 Focus ST (st3 model) and it was a fantastic car. if you can find one not...

My 2020 doesn't shift until I move the paddle or shifter. That said I've never bounced it off the fuel cut for more than a second or so if that. you def feel it happening but it's very smooth.

I have installed a few of them, pretty easy. Get everything lined up as tight as possible, bend the tab over tightly. I then use some pliers to curly the end of the tab about 3/8”-1/2” from the end all the way over. Like 180* so I have a nice “pocket” put a small prybar in it and tap with a...

I am not a BMW fan, and really not a Toyota fan either. I've never been a fan of the Supra, In the 90's i loved the FD RX7. I like whatever car I like at the time. I was shopping for a Camaro when I bought my Mustang, a Mercedes when I bought my ST. I sold my Mustang and ordered a C8. Back when...

I see people keep talking about Monaco the reason why. I don’t really recall the race I remember Jos being upset they “showed favoritism“ to Perez? watching Lec beg for a podium :rofl: as for the Lewis Max incident, I think more racing incident then anything. Max had position turn 1, Lewis...

My best is 8.35 with 5200da. Idk if I could dip into a 7 with good air but im sure very low 8. E50, basic bolt ons, running 305/35/19 Nitto NT05R’s. On a ”prepped” street got a 60ft of 1.66, 11.05@127 same day. not bad for a “show car” as it was called.

Last 7 cars we have bought all have been with out test drives. When I want a car I’ve done so much research that I already know what I’m expecting :dunno: the Supra is the exception as far as research. I had sold my Mustang GT and ordered a C8 that was at the time over a year out, saw the Supra...

I love the burbbles, i hate the pop pop pop crap. the gurgling and burbling though i dont mind at all. One thing i love about my Payn tune over my Visconti tune. the Payn tune just has burbles the Visconti tune just does this pop pop pop then the burbles.

I voted BMW, but really don't care. To me it's a BMW built car. Toyota designed the body and chassis dynamics, but it's built by BMW. Same as my FRS was a Subaru, built by Subaru. No matter how many Toyota badges and GT86 badges I put on it, it was still a Subaru, and I was ok with that. As I...

Zero issues with my 57CRs and TPMS.

George praising himself :rofl:

Pathetic is you making any excuse. I don’t want to gift him a title. I just know now any team can go over out to 7.5 million and it’s ok, because RedBull did it and nothings going to happen. It’s sad you haters just make excuse after excuse after excuse. And anyone that says different is a...

Probably as long as you Max/RedBull fans keep making excuses for them. Let me guess you’d be fine if Mercedes went over on a budget cap now?

I read Ferrari is stating a “minor” infraction 5% or less can give up to .5 seconds a lap. No matter how it goes down, IF RB over spent then all the RB haters will want their heads, RB fanbois will come up with 99 excuses. (If Merc was the ones that over spent then it would be the same there...
