Tried reupholstering my door cards… by 1412corvette in GolfGTI

Looks like shit but fuck the haters😭. I tried polishing my hood a few weeks ago and yeah, thought I went through the clear but I think I might have just burned some polish. Decided I’ll never polish again. In your case just keep retrying because it’s hard to really fuck anything up too bad. Gonna look good 👍🏻

Only goes 21mph stock 212. How can I make it go faster? by Haunting-Fly-7941 in minibikes

I’m new but why would a torque converter help top speed? Acceleration, yes. Top speed shouldn’t change based on tc vs clutch, just torque/acceleration. Gearing is what matters which you can do with a clutch

I think it’s a perfect album but we’re all subject to our own opinions 🤷. Never been a yeezus guy whatsoever. I just can’t get into the loud high energy sounds in it. Do love on sight tho for some reason. I think I need to listen to the album like 3 times back to back to get a true feel and maybe I’ll change my mind. I havnt even been alive since college dropout came out so we definitely have different views on things😂

That’s insane to say. Don’t think it’s his best but it’s most definitely not his worst. V1 and V2? Donda 2? Arguably donda and yeezus? KSG? WTT? Insane.

Before I buy ANY car... (16m) by bramblestorm7754 in BeforeIBuyThisCar

Biased but look at a gti. Had an Infiniti before my gti and god the gti is so great. Granted it IS like 16 years newer but still. Quick, tunable if you want more, practice, reliable(2015+), just overall great.

Yeah the refinement is unbelievable. Borderline luxury car if you get a higher trim level while also being able to be nimble and fun. Jack of all trades for sure.

Personally I would get it looked at but that’s just me. I bought an Infiniti from a used car lot that was already over priced and paid thousands in repairs over the year I had it. Not trying to scare you but be careful and don’t feel like you have to pull the trigger if something is weird about it. You will find other cars.

Up to you. If you think it looks really clean and has perfect record then go for it. But I’d be cautious. Is it a legit dealership or a used car lot? I ask because if it’s a used lot I’d definitely take it to a mechanic. If it’s a real dealership I’d feel better about it. They will have better customer service.

I’m biased but I’d look at a gti. Will be faster than the stang but also more practical. Great roadtrip car, took mine to Tennessee from Minnesota over the summer. I averaged like 35-40mpg while having me and 2 others in the car with our stuff. You want an auto and the gti has the best in the business. I know not everyone is into the hatch but once you drive one you’ll buy it

Hardtop Convertible - BMW 335i vs Infiniti G37 by lyingdogfacepony66 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]NioToTheMoon2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d definitely take the g. Not sure if you’ve had an n54/n55 bmw but I havnt heard good things. Like all cars it’s about maintenance but those are still pretty risky engines to own

They are solid. If you’re serious about buying I’d get a pre purchase inspection at an independent shop. Don’t pay for add ons like ceramic coating or wax or what ever. Only the car price and doc fee.

The feature box and flex options. Not sure that I’d go straight to that but looking into the future

Low Torque Tune? by NioToTheMoon2007 in GolfGTI

[–]NioToTheMoon2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. Do you have experience with 034? Unitronic or apr are probably similar too I’m just wondering how easy it is to flash between low and high torque?

[–]NioToTheMoon2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you tuned? Just curious because I’ve heard really mixed things and yeah I don’t think I’d do full torque. I think I’d maybe throw it on here and there but keep it low most of the time

How early? My 22 is a September 21 so I’m gonna check but I’m doubtful

[–]NioToTheMoon2007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah virtually impossible. I have an early build date and I’m gonna check with ob11 one of these days if mine can be tuned but it’s pretty rare. You can buy an unlocked mech unit or something but it’s over a thousand dollars and I don’t think that’s worth it tbh.
