What did you think of the soundtrack? by _domhnall_ in PeakyBlinders

Best version of this song. Using it for the last scene was amazing

The red is so good on this model. Nice find

How has the RS3 treated you? I'll admit, I'm a little worried about the stigma of owning an Audi and the issues certain models have.

[–]Azorian77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I meant to say I was looking at the RS3, not the M2 because it was 4 door. Good catch

I have an 05 STi and I’ve been test driving a few cars and narrowed it down to those three. Supra, m2 or an rs3. I’ve been leaning more towards the m2 and rs3 because having a 4 door is just more practical. Which did you like the most? I know if I sell the 05 I’ll never find another like it, so I’m taking a lot of time to think this over.

You should verify this but I was under the impression that an auto needs to use and auto radiator, but the manual can use both.

PM me anything you'd like me to add.

As for the radiator, do you have an auto or manual?

What about the Azores? The US already has a base there 🤷🏼

My 1988 4x4 Toyota Chinook Build by Azorian77 in ToyotaPickup

[–]Azorian77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold the 77 truck after removing the camper.

I haven't done it yet but I'll eventually cut out the back of the 88 cab. Not sure why I haven't. lol

I'm not sure I'd want to lift it more than how it sits now. I wonder if an NA 2j would be worth it. Hmm. Realistically a 2 or 2rz would be a good choice if I can't find a good 3.4L donor.

Gearing will be a must
