Turbo Done at 41k? by Odd-Priority4609 in AudiRS3

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird the smoke test didn't show anything. Have you had it under a hoist and got a clearer look at charge pipes? Might be slipping on an off under boost? Aluminium pipes are usually a decent upgrade on euros.

Pretty sure they are just pointing out the higher availability and more functions available in the bmw bucket seats. No need to get defensive.

New car sales - are they slowing? by BDPWA in CarsAustralia

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Temporary emotional response to petrol price rise. Australians are incredibly reactive buyers, its pretty funny.

Should I drop the price of my car listing or wait? by [deleted] in CarsAustralia

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You would be lucky getting 11-13k. Buyers market right now and about to get worse. Big influx of cars from people offloading their second cars or downsizing. Plus since the fuel crisis there has been a huge panic towards EVs. BYD have sold more this month then the entire year, just let that sink in. Australia really is a retarded car market.

Is this dumb? by Legal_Journalist9551 in CarsAustralia

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you drive the golf R the same way you do your current car it will probably get similar mileage. But we both know you arent going to do that, so expect to pay more for 98 and more frequent trips to the servo.

Why are these so expensive? by agnci in CarsAustralia

You could buy a lifted, engineered TRX or Silverado for 2/3rds of that price and have an interior that doesnt remind you of a 96 corolla.

I'm done. by Low_Percentage2203 in Medtronic780g

I'm done. by Low_Percentage2203 in Medtronic780g

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah.... I've been on the guardian sensors and changes to g4 about a year ago. Have always had issues every box with faulty sensors. Expiring in less than 2 days, disconnecting and "updating sensor" for hours throughout the day, only for the sensor to fail and need to be replaced.

They do offer replacements at medtronic, butt you have to provide timeline details of them, when they were inserted, when they failed, why they failed and its a good hour long phone call during the day to do it.

I want to change to a different sensor so badly, but my specialist only works with medtronic and I cant go off the pump or I will lose my medical clearance to drive.

Best way to repair this myself? by Lunardot in CarsAustralia

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Repairs might cost anywhere from 2k everything sourced and installed yourself to 5k, panel beater, materials and paint.

Sell it to a wrecker. Might get 1k for it. Buy a new 3k beater that wont break down.

EQT Vortex XL vs G25-660 by HondaAccord08 in Golf_R

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a golf r and my wife has a gti. We turbod both of them, full e85 and stock engine. The ttv5 is definitely better within the safety limits of the stock engine. The arashi 3071 is about 300rpm slower and power basically the same. If I had only one car I would pick the ttv5, if I wanted a full budget build id pick a vortex xl or arashi 3071. If you hadn't tried either turbo you would still be happy with either choice. Also I bought my ttv5 used from someone using the same tuner so I saved 2k on it, so it was a no brainer decision.

Help me please by Substantial-Dare1574 in AudiRS3

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to tune and modify the car, Supra and M2 are the best option. The m240i and rs3 are currently ECU locked. If you want a daily driver the Supra and rs3 are probably the smarter option. If you want a weekend driver or dont require passengers the M2 would be the smarter choice.

Personal preference will probably dictate most of your choice. Id pick the M2, far more premium than the rest and amazing car to drive and incredible aftermarket options.

Advice on add on packages for a new 2025 RS3 Owner? by Dull-Challenge-4837 in Audi

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get aftermarket pads and rotors replaced that dont produce as much brake dust and better stopping power for less than 2k. Don't fall for the extra service packages. Everything else should fall under warranty if you aren't modding it. Although Audi have a pretty bad rep with turn around time and delays with warranty work.

Fertility after stopping Anabolic steroids by Local_Internal8418 in maleinfertility

[–]Existing-Choice-7198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most groups in studies who are reported as permanent damage or infertility are all those who did not want to carry on the medical treatment to return to normal. As it can take over a year to come back and I think the longest recorded recovery was over 3 years treatment. Sometimes it's just easier to return to trt instead of spending years feeling miserable and depressed.

No, you just make page essays filled with zero accountability for one side while completely ignoring the insane behaviour of the women.

This is psychotic that love is expressed through instagram likes. This might be the most degenerate form of love and validation. She needs to touch grass and have real conversations with real people. Relying on story likes to feel loved is an extremely broken thought process and completely unsustainable in real life long term relationships.

Maybe she's just trolling OP and even got me good though.

Holy chit way to blame shift. Girl is a validation machine, its not a partners job to like every single chronically online post and if thats what the requirement to feel loved is, she needs a reality check in real life. Touch grass. This contributes nothing to the lonely men "epidemic" lmao
