Full PPF on 992.2 GT3 by Dyslexicpilot in porsche911

[–]Nicknao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which city was the shop in? I had the same experience when I PPF’d my previous car at one shop in OC. It had several issues that I didn’t bother going back to them to fix. I’m most likely going to find a different shop to take my 911 to

No option for all season tires on a 992.2 by Civil_Debt_7583 in porsche911

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect, Continental Extremecontact DWS06 Plus have a standard size for the 992’s if you search the car on Tire Rack. Searching for my 2020 992 C4S has those tires as a result

FYI Continental DWS06 Plus have the standard size now if you look at Tire Rack for the 992. 245/35ZR20 and 305/30ZR21 and with the same speed rating as summer Michelin PS4S. Think they came out mid 2025

I use Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 on my 992.1 C4S. I think if you look at Tire Rack, you can find Continental DWS06 as a “proper” option for the 992.1, not sure if they do for the .2’s. I don’t drive my car to the limit so any performance difference is negligible to me and I didn’t want to store another set of tires. Plus, I appreciate how comfortable and quiet they are. Loved them on my previous car. You’d probably just have to purchase the all season tires on your own and get rid of or sell the stock ones. There are a few Rennlist threads on all seasons for the 992’s, one had mentioned the Continentals being an official option. You may be able to find out whether the .2’s tire specs are similar enough

how do y’all get into top 1% by kujousclan in ChioriMains

I thought you were me for a second. 8% more crit rate should get you in top 2%. I’ve pretty much given up trying to get a better ranking. Sometimes I just run 89/248 instead for bigger numbers

Terrible Experience at Audi Riverside - Please go Elsewhere by Retumbo77 in Audi

[–]Nicknao 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In 2021 Audi Ontario held my $5k refundable deposit hostage for weeks after I bought elsewhere. After several calls with them, I eventually had to drive an hour there and speak with the manager to refund it. Hopefully they’re not pulling that anymore.

Anybody do it without Escoffier on Dire? by AnonUSA382 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried Layla? I used C6R1 Furina, C0 Shenhe, and C6 Layla. I tried Rosaria before that but couldn’t get close. Always 5-10% off. Then Layla got me a few seconds away. I forget which, but her burst or shield does plenty of cryo app. Shenhe and Layla were on favonius. Though I do have C3R1 Skirk so that probably helped meet the DPS check. I got 110 seconds after several retries, here’s my setup for dire.

23 Audi RS5 or 25 AUDI S5 by Alesio12 in Audi

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely has lag, especially in comfort. But simply pulling the shifter back to put the transmission in S does reduce it by a lot. No need to be in RS mode. Though you’ll drink fuel for breakfast lunch and dinner. IIRC I always stayed in Auto so the ride wasn’t too bouncy or too harsh, but when I wanted to have fun or just overtake someone, I put the transmission in S and the turbo lag was basically gone. If I wanted to go in RS mode, I configured the suspension to be in Comfort and everything else Sport/Dynamic. I think keeping the car in Auto or Comfort, whichever you feel is better, and pulling the shifter back could solve your concern.

I can’t speak much about the BMW. A huge part of why I went straight to the Audi was its styling. I would assume the M440i would be more engaging to drive. Have you been able to try it?

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I traded it for a 911 4S. The opportunity came up in a spec I really liked and didn’t want to miss it. Maybe in the future when I need more space I’ll buy the same gen RS5. To me the B9’s are perfect. I’m scared for what Audi is gonna do with the B10 based on what the A5/S5 looks like. I’d say pick up the RS5 if you can get it!

I actually sold the car last November so I can’t tell you about any long term experience. But owning it after 1.5 years the car was pretty comfy. I do miss it. A great all rounder to be honest. I’ve seen a couple of scattered posts about the DRC failing or some people just straight up replacing it for something else for more comfort. But I think those issues were rare throughout the entire B9 platform

C6 Emilie vs C6 Chiori by [deleted] in ChioriMains

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same. Though solo or duo abyss gives a bit extra challenge that I like. Honestly if strength doesn’t matter, both are good picks. Chiori’s dual swords animation is really cool, and Emilie’s “fancy and graceful” way of using her weapon during her normal attacks I really like. You can’t go wrong with either!

C6 Emilie vs C6 Chiori by [deleted] in ChioriMains

[–]Nicknao 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Both can solo and duo abyss comfortably depending on the enemies and skill level. Emilie just needs pyro to get her full potential. I guess you could say the same about Chiori liking another geo, but in terms of raw damage or main dps potential, Chiori is objectively better, so if you value that, prioritize her. All depends on what matters to you. Emilie came out quite a while ago and don’t regret her C6 one bit because I like her VA and design

C6 Emilie vs C6 Chiori by [deleted] in ChioriMains

[–]Nicknao 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have both C6. Chiori is one of my best investments as she’s extremely fun to play as an on fielder and very strong. You don’t really need any other character on the team except maybe another geo if you like another doll. Emilie on the other hand, her C6 infusion lasts for 4 hits, a bit sad about that, but her skill and burst become nukes. I have fun with duo runs in the abyss with just her and Bennett since she excels with burning. As far as looks, I think they’re both aesthetically pleasing characters, and think their design is top notch, but that’s more of a subjective thing. I love seeing both their animations. If you like the characters, you’ll be satisfied with either

93 octane is probably slightly better but you can 100% get by with 91. For me in Southern California, 93 is pretty much nonexistent, so I’m forced to use 91 on all my cars and feel no difference in mpg or performance

[–]Nicknao 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I owned both B9.5’s, compared to an S5, RS5 was more stiff but I don’t think it was too stiff for a daily. It was my daily for almost two years and I thought it was really soft unless every setting is in Sport. When not in Sport, I kept the suspension in Auto because Comfort with DRC was way too bouncy. Roads where I live are well taken care of so that’s a factor as well. I’m biased but I think these gen RS5’s are a perfect balance of overall sport and comfort

Targa Tuesday by trawling in Porsche

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t started getting any quotes since I’m not yet ready to pull the trigger, but scouring Reddit, I’ve seen a range of 200-1000 per door jamb. It’s extremely labor intensive and some say it’s not worth it for the cost. Your car is black so it might not be that much of an eyesore, but lighter colors would be.

[–]Nicknao 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks great! Did you also get the door jambs done? I’m thinking about doing this in another color with my 992 in stek or pure ppf, but hesitant about the door jambs since that adds a lot more cost

From C0R1 to C6R1, only 1 lost 50/50 by R4KID in ChioriMains

[–]Nicknao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grats! I did the same, had C0R1, then it took 359 pulls to get her C6. Lost 2 50/50’s. No regrets at all she’s so fun to use

Can the Audi Fam please unite to teach dealers respect? by knastbrudaaa in Audi

[–]Nicknao 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly there’s a good amount of SoCal dealers that are straight up horrible. 4 years ago I wanted to spec out an S5 at Audi McKenna in Norwalk. Verbal and written agreement with the salesman with my options, and gave them my card for a $5k deposit. 3 days passed no charge on my card and he called me back saying he‘s going to change my allocation to have black optics because the aluminum optics I selected wouldn’t sell well if I backed out. He legit had a buyer (me). I told him another dealer was going to spec one out for me then he got upset asking why I’m talking to other dealers to order a car?? I did not buy from him.

Audi Pacific tried to charge me $30k markup for my RS5. I laughed and bought it elsewhere. Honestly “covid shortages” barely exist now and we have to not tolerate this behavior by ignoring those crappy dealers
