No reason to explain. But I’d like to think your girlfriend was trying to fit in there with ya (make it work) with something sharp in her back pocket ?
You ever see the salvage thread/page? Tons of Supras on there without airbags deployed, you’d think they just part them cheap ?
Would that...
I gotta work 12 hours, come home & cram it in, rinse, repeat & back to work tomorrow… It’ll still be worth loosing a bit of sleep to watch ?
You ain’t kidding! What a one man team. I’d hate to see Max go elsewhere with 2026 around the corner and everything changing. You’d think he’d give them a...
1st time I watched it. Dude…. all it takes is one object, animal or heaven forbid kid to jump out and you got a really bad situation. Definitely agree with Chuck & Bryan, take it to the track man! Those 30 mph residential streets are a recipe for disaster.
Yeah it’ll be a while b4 my wife will...
It’s worth watching for sure. Many BMWs have a boot kits available. Unfortunately just not for ours, yet…. It’ll be nice when they do. Using a high temp grease might also be an option if it continues to happen.
I agree. If it’s only cosmetic, just scratched, I would think it could be touched up. That’s something I’d do and my wife would want the whole damn thing replaced ?
Yeah they can vary quite a bit. Why I put it up on the top which model I was using. Not hiding anything. They definitely can be all over the place. I was trying Anthropic’s advanced AI model. When using ones at my work, they only reference medical journals and even then the findings vary...
I seem to get all kinds of errors or codes when I do things to my car. Sorry to use your post as a guinea pig but I wanted to see if this multi AI model would work in a single link, instead of a massive copy & past. Hope it helps ya...
I’m actually surprised how well it works. I only use it when going from S. Ft. Myers/Estero to Homestead, FL (track) and every time it’s been flawless. I’ll want it in any car we get in the future for sure. Bottom line: it’s been great, even in Miami traffic. Other than me recently mucking it up...
And it’s take on 2 port vs 6 port ?, both lengthy but interesting:
“The 6-port B58 engine offers significant performance advantages over the 2-port version, primarily in airflow efficiency and power output. The 6-port head provides approximately 30 more horsepower than the 2020 2-port models...
Interestingly there are various AI ? takes on it. Which supports why an upgraded manifold is advantageous and now used in Gen 3 B58 engines. One of the better summaries I found was from Claude 4.0 Sonnet (below):
Difference Between Gen 2 and Gen 3 B58 Engines
“Key Technical Differences:
•...
I’ve almost given up on the stock tires. They loose traction so easily in lower gears, it’s just slip n slide ? even in the dry. At least when it’s wet, it’s not like you’re going to accelerate hard or corner fast. So any of those 200tw tires that are priced well would be really tempting to buy...
Odd day before work. Not getting my daily host error the server is hogging resources.
Drove her twice this past week. Seriously thinking about getting another seat (Bryan and Gabe’s same one) and moving mine over to the passenger side, while waiting for the coilovers to get serviced (rebuilt)...
