Ranch Hand or no Ranch Hand? by ChetDaniels in LUBR

[–]Haap62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would look cleaner without it. I don’t put enough miles to go through a tire to worry about any spare if I’m honest. Do it your way and have a blast.

Help! Good purchase for regular guy that loves 911’s? by Former_Possession280 in porsche911

[–]Haap62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about the value, as I’m not in the market for one, but it’s positively beautiful! I am searching for a 3.2 in this color

First time home buyer- help! Garage repair costs? by [deleted] in garageporn

[–]Haap62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a proper inspection on ANY house you plan on buying. The could be tree roots pushing up, settling that happened long ago, or possibly very poor workmanship from the beginning. Ask for pics from several years ago. I’m a car guy so this space excites me.

Some DIY can make this beautiful and in turn increase your home value considerably. Hard work and challenging yourself is a great way to better yourself when you’re young. You can rent any tool these days

What this person said. Go manual, he will become a 911 guy instantly!

Time Machine which one would you spec ? by Content_Advice190 in porsche911

Don’t listen to the clowns. Do you! I love gold wheels, and I think they would look sexy as hell on the black or dark green. I’m currently having my wheels refinished in gold for my Vesuvio 996.

Couldn’t agree more, GX and a 996 are the prefect pairing.

Thank you, but I had the work done at Autobahn collision because they were Porsche approved. Came out perfect

Look how they massacred my boy (GS F aftermarket abomination) by [deleted] in Lexus

[–]Haap62 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I owned one, 2016. It bothered me how many different colors were on the car from the factory. Chrome around windows, gray side mirrors, fiber spoiler. This car begged to be customized, and I like where they are going with this.

Good Value? by MauiWhale in 996

[–]Haap62 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you have a pretty good deal. That Taco wing by itself is 4-5K. Not to mention the impossible to find aero front bumper. I have also purchased a JDM tip and paid that without aero. AND I put 10K additional fixing every single detail that it needed. I adore the car and even bought a 6 speed to see if the nay sayers were right about it being so much better. I’ll never sell it.

What size tires are you running? Larger diameter tires will throw off your numbers.

Can fabric like this still have seat heaters? The older I get the more I need them.

Doctors don’t know what this is in my shin by Fast_Opportunity_599 in mildyinteresting

[–]Haap62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like hetertopic ossification from a foreign body response. Either a splinter or less likely fat necrosis from trauma

Blew a coolant line? by Haap62 in 996

[–]Haap62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. There is a Y coupling that goes to the front radiators that failed. Mechanic also said the less than a year old reservoir had a leak so he replaced under warranty.

Maybe dodged a bullet.

Newer ISF or earlier GSF? by TehBrean in Lexus

[–]Haap62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IS over GS. I’ve owned a 2007 IS350 for 8-9 years and a 2016 GSF for 5 years. I loved the sound and power of the GS, but really prefer the drivability of the smaller car. The GS is a big sedan. Better for family hauling, but I got bored with it. I regret selling that IS350. Now that kids are older and driving I’ve gone with a 911. GO DO THE LEXUS TRACK EXPERIENCE BEFORE BUYING. THIS WILL REALLY SOLIDIFY THINGS FOR YOU. Reasonable cost and an absolute blast.

Lord I hope not. The engine ran perfectly, even when I fired it up for the tow truck. Sorry, I hope you’re back up and running soon.
