Next logical step... especially coming from an open diff!

Dude when i put in my Quaife it was a night and day difference in driving. Any LSD is the most bang for your buck aside from tires. Just make sure to get the upgraded diff bushing as I popped mine in the first two weeks of doing my LSD.

The concrete roads are killing me. I may have to get softer springs and raise my car up. Every time i got on the freeway it feels like i am on a mechanical bull.

It took me a couple weeks when I moved out west. I'd call back home and I'd be confused as to why people were all sleepy when answering the phone :icon17:

Good to know, thanks.

How do you like the Quaife? I've been considering the Wavetrac, but leaning towards OSG. Figured it's probably worth taking the $400 hit to upgrade to it since I'm doing it anyways and not something I'd want to change again down the road.

Then again $400 would basically pay for the new gears.

No matter what any LSD is going to be light years better than running an open diff lol

Did you get anything from Newegg about the nvidia lawsuit and getting $ back? I received an email about it this morning, I didnt think the 980s were part of the Vram debacle that the 970s had.

I haven't yet. I need to go through and check both newegg and Amazon. Can't remember which I ordered my card from.

Leingod 08-01-2016 01:46 PM

Amazon. Ordered in December of 2014. $349.99

Get the wavetrac. Hands down. Just don't buy it from Nurse Necktat (synolimit).

Global golf sent me an email saying the hybrid taylormade I ordered was out of stock so they comped it and are sending me a burner 2.0 instead. Better club for free.

Pardon my ignorance, but what's the deal with synolimit? Was considering his group buy.. Maybe..

If full pop on Wavetrac is $1300 and OSG is $1600, the spread is getting less and less

He is considered a douche canoe by many people and not someone you want to do business with.

Also when budgeting out the rear diff, you have to factor in all the other stuff like the software and install. Take a look at the sticky thread in the engine and drivetrain section. My install was $850ish before all the other stuff.

Yeah I'm figuring install be somewhere around there, especially as I'm doing R&P at the same time. Nothing cheap about this upgrade unfortunately.

Stupid patient care. :icon17: I need to be on hand in case I need to press the armageddon button or swap out a patient phone cause someone dropped it in the toilet or other disgusting bodily fluid.

IT. We actually treat TV and patient phones as a rush job, it is included in our patient care evaluations. :tup: If it breaks down, we will have a replacement or fix it within an hour. We figure there isnt **** else to do when laying in a hospital bed, we can at least give you movies and tv :icon17:

madwi 08-01-2016 03:47 PM

Sucks when I have to lift big *** 49" tvs onto the wall mounts by myself at 3 am though

Hell, I can't even get a sink unclogged in my daughters room at 3am lol

And even though the children's hospital is only something like 8-10 years old all the rooms have 24" CRT's :rofl2:

Actually maybe they are smaller than that! I don't really watch tv anyhow, but it's still funny seeing something so old school in an otherwise state of the art facility.

When I visited my father at the other "big" hospital in town, it was the same way. 20" CRT tvs on gigantic corner mounts :icon17: Our place frequently wins or is near the top for the "most Wired hospital" award. :tup:

Bout the same here. These CRT's have monster slide out, articulating mouth that come out of a wall unit. My only guess is they got the CRT's for free. I know a buddy that had a whole pile given to his store at Habitat for Humanity couldn't give them away.

The free wi-if at the hospital sucks balls too. If you can connect in the first place, don't dare let your computer/phone/whatever go to sleep or you'll never get back on. I quit trying years ago.. even in the rooms that actually have the router mounted to the ceiling directly above you!

What baffles me is that here we are in the 21st Century, hell, we are almost 20 years in, and hospitals STILL have CRT TVs....... WTF? :rofl2:





Then again, the device I install uses a full size iMac..... :wtf2:

We have 47-49" flat screens as standard through out the hospital. Surgeons lounge get the best topping out at 65" in the break room. I have a 47" in the office, cause you know, I have to make sure the movies and tv channels are working properly :rofl2:
