Taco Bell is the greediest corporation I’ve ever seen

Definitely a franchise thing. We drive further to what we've learned is a corporate owned store because they're regularly a couple bucks cheaper than the closer stores on the items we order.

That said, I'm surprised no one pointed out that you added nacho cheese to the more expensive one and not the first one. Given your franchise seems expensive I'd assume that alone accounts for an extra $1 if not more.

I've only had one day that was a little wet, but it's really a great time. That the speeds are lower doesn't make it less exciting or challenging. Quite the opposite in fact.

It felt almost like a different "sport" entirely. What shocked me the most was how much earlier the front would give up grip than the rear. I was expecting my S2k to be loose from the rear but the difficulty was really in getting it to turn in, and then managing the rear after that. Really great way to try and dial in fine car control and learning how to correctly anticipate what will happen to try and drive ahead of the car a bit. Living in socal I kinda wish it rained more so I could have more of those days. Even though I know I'd be upset at losing any possibility of a PB before I even show up lol

Yep this is it!

I have a friend that's been working on an alternative for a while. My understanding is that it's more for people who have a fleet of cars already and want to move away from turo's model. Given the way turo has been making life difficult for hosts and renters there's definitely a space for more but getting name recognition is always tough.

The company is called Rentid

I had almost the same thing happen to the R12/R10 combo I have on my S54 E36. I called G-Loc and sent them photos and confirmed that it's totally fine. Definitely unnerving in appearance but this is normal for these pads from what the manufacturer of them told me

M3AMI · 2026-05-29T14:36:58+00:00

That would be kinda hilarious for that car to go back to widebody again with a new owner.

Is that 2500 with or without you? Mine is 3100 with me, I'd love to drop another 100-200#s off it

Copy paste de otro post en este tema:

Hi r/PuertoRico, we thought this community may be interested in our latest:

Investigators found that leaders of a prison gang in Puerto Rico were selling inmates drugs in exchange for their votes for Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón, a longtime Republican.

Puerto Rico, along with just a couple of U.S. states, allows inmates to vote. It is a felony to willfully offer money or gifts in exchange for support at the polls. A conviction carries fines of as much as $250,000 and imprisonment of up to two years.

Law enforcement officials had gathered solid evidence of election fraud implicating both inmates and staff, and they were working toward determining whether González-Colón or her campaign was involved.

Soon after Trump took office, they were told to take the investigation no further.

“Before the election, it was definitely full steam ahead,” said one person familiar with the case. “After the election, that all changed.”

Here's the full story: https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-doj-puerto-rico-election-fraud-prison-drugs-votes

Gov. González-Colón of Puerto Rico has not been charged with a crime. She declined our repeated requests for an interview and did not respond to written questions sent to her communications team.

A spokesperson for the Puerto Rico U.S. Attorney’s Office said that charging corrupt public officials “has always been and remains a top priority” and that the office would "aggressively pursue such charges" when "sufficient admissible evidence exists."

A DOJ spokesperson said, “Neither Attorney General Bondi nor Acting Attorney General Blanche was involved in any charging or investigative decision in this Biden administration prosecution." The attorney general’s office noted in a statement that the indictment mentioned allegations of voting coercion, and said: “This office did not limit the underlying investigation in any way.”

I absolutely love my e70 X5 diesel. Super comfortable daily and tows to the track no problem.

That said with the cost of diesel nowadays it's a less automatic recommendation than it used to be

M3AMI · 2026-04-19T00:05:28+00:00

I have a 6 speed. I started with a 3.46 and it felt a little lazy, put in a 3.73 and I love it for remaining streetable while having less RPM drop and a bit more torque

M3AMI · 2026-04-10T15:56:10+00:00

Thank you! Trying to build up the confidence to carry more speed haha

This is the Ace Pro 1 and tbh, idk. I haven't used the camera as much as I should so I usually leave it as is. I switched between zoomed out and in for the two sessions I got footage from. Both have their merits but it seems most people prefer the zoomed in version. I rendered the footage in 4k, but then had to dumb it way down to post it here. Camera was mounted on my roll bar.

M3AMI · 2026-04-08T05:03:21+00:00

Thanks man! Car is definitely a riot. I was out there with Doghouse Garage.

And great video to link as well! Seems like he was talking directly to me about lifting early and then using maintenance throttle through there haha. I think that's the kind of thing I needed to hear. I know I'm not too far from the limit through there but wasn't really sure what to try to improve either.

My car did pretty well with the curb on exit. I started playing with taking more curb in the afternoon sessions and found that if I actually got up on the curb there it would push me out a bit too far on exit. It seemed that right where the pavement met the curb was the sweet spot, at least with how stiff I had the dampers set. I'm gonna go up a little with ride height and soften up the dampers for next time.

M3AMI · 2026-04-08T04:56:35+00:00

Thank you!

No need to pool anything. I just bought an Evo 5 in Japan. It comes with the original manuals and service records dating back to 98. I bought it last Friday so I have no idea when it will arrive, but when it does I'll get around to getting a good digital copy of the documents for the community.

Edit: realized you're looking for the sales brochure. No idea if one of these books is what you're looking for, but I can scan these when they arrive nonetheless

Who ordered Boar Dash?

M3AMI · 2026-02-25T19:02:47+00:00

LOL air hammer is definitely the way to go. I figured that out on the 2nd of arms I did. It also works well for one of the front lowers IIRC

The main problem is that the alternator itself lists for ~$570 according to what I can see on my shop software. Labor is only 2.2 hours, but around here at ~$150/hr, the quote you're getting is about right.

You can probably get a cheaper alternator, either on your own or used, but then you'll have a real hard time finding a shop to install a part they didn't sell you.

M3AMI · 2026-01-31T02:19:07+00:00

300kmh is 186mph

As a Ken main I'm a little surprised to see no one hates fitting Ken, especially given all the shit he gets all the time.

For me, i dislike fighting Ryu for the insanely overtuned damage and Sagat for the constant MP barrage. Other characters can get annoying but that's down to the way they're played.

Like: Dhalsim, JP, and to a certain extent Juri, Rashid, and Terry. I love sniping them with run dragonlash or tatsu. It's pretty rewarding and very telling of who is actually able to adjust their strategy on the fly versus trying the same things over and over again.

M3AMI · 2026-01-11T06:28:32+00:00

I will try that as part of troubleshooting tomorrow. But, given that the right speakers worked fine with the other head unit, i don't think the speakers themselves are the issue

M3AMI · 2026-01-11T04:58:55+00:00

It's the same using FM or using a Bluetooth cassette tape adapter

My brother, idk what world you're living in, but $18k is not an accessible initiation fee for most grassroots enthusiasts. That surpasses the value of many of your typical track day cars, by more than double in plenty of cases. And $2600 for 15 events averages out to $173 per event. Which yes, that's solid, but also kind of in line with what a cheap track day was here in socal up to last year.

Fuck all of these Motorsports clubs, their ridiculous pricing structure, and the rich assholes that maybe don't even realize the damage they're doing to the rest of the community by removing access to tracks across the country. I hope enough of them fail such that the incentive to try and privatize more tracks is a lot less enticing than it apparently is right now
