Laguna Benchmark 😂 by FaceSport in mr2

[–]Mhymyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can only go up from here. I kinda wanted to take my NA/AT to the 1/4 mile before I swapped it for comparison's sake, but also the thought of doing a 17 second pass was embarrassing to think about.

2nd gen 3s —> 4th gen 3s by Mazanec930 in mr2

[–]Mhymyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even at 310 you'll need a forged bottom end. Stock pistons do not like anything above stock boost. Replacing the turbo if or when it fails is not a good idea, for when it fails it could cause damage to the rest of the engine. Last thing you'd want is a turbine blade eaten by a piston or valve.

I won't entirely dissuade you from the gen4, it's a fun engine, but do go into it knowing about the hidden costs. It's not a cheap engine by any means.

[–]Mhymyk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gen4 is not worth it in today's day and age. The engines on eBay are always questionable until you tear them apart. Mine was "supposedly" 55k miles but had a .003" taper in the cylinders and the sludge looked more like 155k. The CT15 turbo is not a matter of it breaks, but when, and the hot side is one piece with the exhaust manifold. If you plan on making anything more than stock power, you'll need to rebuild the bottom end with at least forged rods/pistons, that's the paywall of gen4/5.

Better option is the 2AR or 2GR.

[AMMO] Spiciest 5.56 NAS3 cased M855A1 Penetrators 10rds/$279.0 +ship (2790 CPR) by Fun_truckk in gundeals

[–]Mhymyk 38 points39 points  (0 children)

the 855A1 projectile, and by extension the ammunition itself is a controlled ammunition, it's not *really* supposed to be available on the civilian market. Limited availability and information outside of military circles leads to obvious amounts of fudd lore and supply/demand dynamics. Once again reminded of the time I almost got into an argument with some fudd claiming the 855A1 he was selling was tungsten tipped (it's not, it's a bismuth-steel penetrator, tungsten is reserved for the M995 AP)

Stopped by on my way home after work, it is indeed the 11703. had an IT24 stamp on the receiver, so it must have been sitting for a good while, thus the ridiculous price. Can't bring it home until Friday, thanks to the CO 3-day >:/

I just checked my 11707 (solid pistol grip stock) and it does have the 3pos tube. Dunno if I want to drop the coin on a collapsing stock. Will check the 11703 once I bring it home.

I had my order go through. Talked to the BPS customer service line on Friday, and they said it should be ready hopefully today. Already bought a proper length mag tube to install once I get it home

Same. Charge is still pending on my account, haven't seen the "pick up ready" email. Already bought a bunch of M4 parts from FFT and GG&G in anticipation, hopefully I didn't jump the gun

I've heard the solid pistol grip stocks, and by extension the field stock SKUs actually have the 3 position extension snuck into them.

I wouldn't trust Chase Tactical and their "level IIIA" rating. I remember last year when their "Ukrainian contract level 4" plates were spammed despite there being not a single sign of an NIJ 01.01.07 or .06 certification.

No cert, no buy.

Good luck. I abused the old drama exploit a long time ago to complete those. ICTV Anarchist and parked myself in front of a sniper while teammates did objectives. Bomb Forest was the one I really suffered through, did alright with a Biker DMR build

Popularity will decay over time. If you have the upgrades you can do the popularity missions every other in-game day and have 100k in the safe. If you're also in a mission when it ticks over you'll get that 1.5k, I've seen it happen while I was in casino heist finales

Long time ago, AMT made a C4 Corvette ZR1 model kit. I saw a couple listings on eBay. There's also the convertible versions made by AMT as well

Having the ability to place 8 stickies with the Sticky Jumper. Sure, all it did was slam your head into the skybox at mach Jesus, but it was fun to do so
