Congrats, a Gallardo is probably my 2nd choice if I can't get a gen 2 R8 for a good deal whenever I'm ready to jump to something of that nature. Color is great too!
You know, I didn't really think about it before, but I don't think I've ever seen something as ridiculous in the automotive industry as a manufacturer acknowledging an annoying issue their cars have and proceeding to charge for a special package to fix it when said fix is a couple of plastic...
The transmission / driveshaft / diff can handle it no problem.
Stock axles have a history of snapping on ethanol tuned stock turbos. It isn't a guarantee and many users never have an issue, but if you plan to hit the drag strip often / launch the car a lot, especially with semi-slicks or...
Sad to see you go but completely understand, won't be the same without you here that's for sure! Your threads have helped me a lot over the past couple years.
Also make sure you have the suspension/dampers set to comfort/normal mode, you want the extra squatting from the softer setting to transfer more weight to the rear tires.
I just saw that, didn't realized they made a V2 of the kit yet, that's pretty crazy for 93 considering the other stock mount turbos can't seem to get past 550ish without a "kill" map.
Guess RP65 V2 will be the way to go then when the time is right unless something changes. Ty!
Don't feel like I could get a real concrete answer from the previous replies for this / researching elsewhere so sorry if this has already been discussed 100 times;
Realistically what can I expect if I went RP65/Pure900 + HPFP + Injectors on 93 octane? I want to be in the mid to upper 500's on...
Not sure what catless would be best for CEL-less at this point. Heard both good and bad about Kenji, same with the Armytrix.
I run the FI Exhaust DP and it throws a CEL every so often if I give the car too much gas before it's warmed up (before the water temp gauge hits 4 bars). Has never once...
I pour ice water on my tires before each run so they're cooler cuz it's better for the tire's lifespan!
In seriousness, unless you're running the $400/set econobox tires mom and dad put on their Honda Accord, burnouts to get tires to a higher temp before runs absolutely can and will make a...
Welcome aboard!
Remember to use the forum search function before making any threads to ask about common things like "what oil should I use" or "what's the best route to my power goals".
Let us know how it is with spirited driving / if it holds up! As a Samsung Fold user there's so few phone mounts that work for me even years after the fold came out.
Doesn't make any meaningful difference. Maybe it'll make the engine or transmission give out at 200k miles instead of 210k.
All that sport mode does to the powertrain is make throttle response and transmission shifts a little bit snappier, it's far less "harmful" than XHP transmission tunes or...
I'll make sure to keep an eye on the BMW forums in a couple years when you move up to a 911 or something and go through this whole shindig all over again with those guys.
I love forums so much :popcorn:
Are people really that heated over a logo on a diff part?
Unless you're some stance boy nobody's laying on the pavement to look under your car, and if you refuse to do your own oil changes I don't think the young kids making minimum wage at Jiffy Lube are gonna laugh at what you put on a $50K+...
I have long said that the decision to go from 370z to supra was one that I should have made way sooner, the 370z is just so horribly outdated and cheap feeling, and every little mod I did to the 370z was just me chasing what the Supra was bone stock. The new Z, as much as I have a weird love for...
