Thats good to hear. If they offer you a tune will you go for it or still get your refund?

refund.

i only went to that company because Doug was prolific on the GTR forum/community for tunes.

he legit would see someone post about a tune issue and would look at their logs and help sort them out free to diagnose then his prices werent bad to do more if needed.

he would charge $1 per HP gained on adjustments and i paid $600 for full remote tune with adjustments to clean it up if anything was off.

Hope they resolve it sooner than later!
Im not getting the FI because I really like the invidia and doesnt make sense to go with something else I may not like.

FI is a better product and sounds better but sound is a personal preference so whatever you like i'd say go for it.

not gonna lie i was bored looking at the parts market for R8's yesterday after seeing that the car itself is down so much in price even 2-3 year old models

Not soon. The price you see is futures. Most of the oil in pipelines and production is already ina locked contract rate.

No honking horns, loud music, crowd noises or any of the normal stuff. I was really funny as there were only small groups of cars cruising the strip all doing the same thing. I our covey of four cars we all were driving at about 5 mph just taking in the sites and taking pictures. I will post a couple in a bit.


Dude dont wanna here those stuff...I wanna hear about where are the hoochies hiding and who are their pimp my ride!!!

I was right all along!!!

I didn’t know you sleep with your mouth gapping wide open and bundles of bacon hanging on your ceiling fan room.

Like your just waiting for it to drop straight to your mouth!

I have plenty of storage room for your hood. What I don't have is a vehicle that can transport a hood. I had to rent a truck to pick up the one I bought in Houston.

Now your talking McLaren.

Btw saw an article but couldn’t find it, it say the company is about bankrupt and looking for someone yo buy it.

Honestly Its cheaper to just find and Hire Ron Dennis .

Darn. I'd probably have to rent a vehicle also, I don't think it would fit in the back of my fiancee's Escape. Oh well, I'll just keep plugging along. It would have been nice to pick up, it's on my list of things.

FPenvy, yellow calipers seems to be on the rise these days. I would only want them on a silver or black car. The only way it would look good on a white car is if it had other yellow ascents, inside or out. Do like the orange one though. :tup:

the white is just white/black/carbon. interior is black with white accents looks amazing. yellow caliper is just odd.

I’ve already hit the Shiraz but those look tasty.

How long do you Sous Vide them for? I normally do a decent sized ribeye 2 inch thick) for 2 hours for a nice medium rare and then seat them over hot charcoal ( minute each side)

Yesterday I got 2 lawn mowers running ( that hasn’t run for a year or so) and cut 2.5 acres of lawn grass

Today I made a planter out of 2 old pallets

Tomorrow I’m going to detail the crap out of the interior on the Z32 and may fit the CarPlay hifi

In the evening going to start transferring my vinyl collection to digital

But in the meantime, marathon of “ Person of Interest” can’t beat Shaw and Root with guns

129F for 2 hours @ 1.5-2" thick. Then I either sear in a blazing hot cast iron pan spooning butter over or on the hottest part of my grill for a minute each side.
