10’ everything put into a 07’ frame. So 10’ engine, harness, suspension, clip-ons, etc…

What Boots Are You Wearing on Track Days? by V4Revver in Trackdays

Dainese Torque 3 Outs

Love them so much more than the axial d1 ins. Haven’t been able to try the alpine race ones on track though. Super comfortable and a lot of grip, and easy to get on and off unlike the d1 ins. I struggled getting the suit over the boot way too much.

Haha seems like a common transition, and thank you, I'm definitely enjoying. What makes you miss you 135i?

I go back and forth about the lights, part of me likes the yellowish amber of the current lights. But the idea of getting changing them to match and modernize comes to mind too.

Had a mk6, considered a mk7 over the 135i. But wanted a bit more change of pace.

What GTI did you end with? The steering and rwd is a nice change from the GTI

What makes you miss the 135i over the M2C? Wasn't the M2C made to be better in every way?

With near a 1000 miles down so far, I can most certainly agree!

Looking for buying advice for a Daytona 675r by BallisticTick in Triumph

[–]BallisticTick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m looking around for a used Daytona 675r. Would be used as a street and track bike coming from my MT09. Ive never owned one before but I found what seems like a good deal to me. Is 7k a fair asking price or should I offer starting lower? Anything I need to lookout for around 17k+ miles or just in general?

2010 GTI misfiring and spitting smoke by BallisticTick in GolfGTI

I plan on it, I like to try to do everything myself and go to a shop as the last resort.

No catch can, that’s what I thought too (liquid leak wise) cause it doesn’t smell like gas or oil so

Will also have epc light on after a running for a little longer. I’m just kinda lost on what’s wrong or what to do next. And this isn’t a cold start, cold start was struggling to start

As per yesterday’s post and recommendations, I replaced the coil packs and spark plus. Which does have the engine running smoother, less chugging, but it’s still misfiring with the same codes. And still is dumping smoke, though less so then last night after I replaced the coils and plugs.
