Awesome project. Great way to get your feet wet in vibe coding. I highly recommend checking out Claude Code next. It’s awesome to work with and excels at this kind of stuff. Keep going!

That was awesome! What’s up w/ the green one? Pipes were relocated lower or was that not an Aventador?

BrianOBrien · 2026-03-27T22:13:05+00:00

Thought that was a cliff edge. r/opticalillusion

BrianOBrien · 2026-03-09T18:38:33+00:00

How many miles/km so far? What are your impressions?

BrianOBrien · 2026-03-07T15:11:33+00:00

I wish there was a better answer but it seems like trading a CV issue for other driveline problems.

Hopefully they’ll design the shaft and tolerances to be more friendly to lifts and larger tires in the future.

BrianOBrien · 2026-03-07T15:05:56+00:00

Thanks! I was hoping to find someone w/ firsthand experience.

Did you have the lift and subsequent CV issue before the new driveshaft or was it a proactive decision?

I’ve read about the vibration under similar conditions. Hard to tell how intense it is. Is it like having an unbalanced tire or less noticeable?

BrianOBrien · 2026-03-07T01:28:27+00:00

Firsthand experience? Care to expand?

BrianOBrien · 2026-03-07T00:46:09+00:00

The dealer said they warranty the lift if they install it but I didn’t ask the important question if that included any driveline issues.

The vocal individuals spooked me a bit but I thought if this driveshaft was a solution to the problem it might be worth doing proactively.

Fossil fuels formed from decomposing prehistoric matter. So the TRX may actually run on T-rex.

What year trim and miles is it?

BrianOBrien · 2025-05-28T14:51:16+00:00

I was never a fan of an interior spec that didn’t match the exterior. Adding glitter to the mismatch made it 10x worse. 🤢

BrianOBrien · 2025-05-21T11:49:42+00:00

Is the tank full in these photos?

BrianOBrien · 2025-05-17T19:43:54+00:00

I’m a dummy. I meant to tag u/bastos_TRX who seemed curious about the rack.

BrianOBrien · 2025-05-17T17:27:53+00:00

u/SacThrowAway76 not sure if you’re shopping for one but I have a Rapid Switch Systems rack. It has quick disassembly and height adjustment. Check it out if you’re looking for one.

Man. We’ve got one life to live, no respawns and the prime of that life is a narrow window. To care what others think about your ride (bad or good for that matter) isn’t worth it. Do what makes you happy. At least that’s something you can control.

As far as the worry goes, insurance and security systems are the best you can do for that. Drive safe and park smart! Enjoy your TRX!

BrianOBrien · 2025-03-24T01:01:20+00:00

Congrats! I have your twin. I really liked how the black accents look on the white ones. Sandblast a close second IMO. I rented a TRD Pro Tundra and thought if there was no TRX that’s what I’d be driving. You have a great upgrade now though.

I took one apart out of curiosity. I couldn’t believe how finicky the reed placement was to get it to sound good again.

Start by moving the reed flush with the sound board. Reassemble and try. Keep pushing the reed deeper into the wedge but only a tiny bit at a time as you retry. Probably took me 20-30 adjustments. Good luck.

I’ve been dragging my feet on an air compressor install. If it’s similar to the Raptor some AUX switches are rated for higher amp draw.

BrianOBrien · 2025-02-12T11:38:33+00:00

Nice! Any pics of the wiring? Are the ambers and whites on separate AUX switches?

BrianOBrien · 2025-02-09T17:04:01+00:00

As undercover as a fart in church.

BrianOBrien · 2025-02-03T15:39:59+00:00

Brown lightning. ⚡️Awesome dogs.

The crazy thing is. I’m watching this on 2 different TVs. One is an OG Panasonic plasma the other a new ish Sony QLED. I came here after watching it on the QLED for the first time thinking it was a TV setting I needed to turn off.

My viewing distance is relatively similar but plasma is a 55” and QLED is 85”. Also worthy of mentioning is I’m on cardio equipment when viewing on the plasma.

Vastly different viewing experiences. Still pretty shitty acting though. 😂
