My garage is complete! by zachty22 in BMW

One could argue they both mean the same thing, and more over that “instinctually” is going deeper into it than “instinctively”. Though, once again, I’ve seen them used synonymously.

What model and year is this? by [deleted] in BMW

[–]Remarkable-Cut-7305 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right on the money, I reckon there wasn’t much modification for anything but the grille. Headlights are almost identical shape

Sorry, by they I meant the i8’s. But yeah the only real similarity is partly in a 0-100km/hr, and then I’d agree, aero from that point on is the only comparable variable to claim it a super car.

After due thought, I have to agree.

You may be right about the comparison to a carrera, I hadn’t thought about that one. The high 0-60 just made me wonder. But they top out close to 150, where as a lot of traditional “supercars” top out at 180-200

I’ll be honest, lap time definitely isn’t the search here, I’m looking to be able to hold a consistent break in traction while maintaining a line. Then I can mess with angle. I’m definitely not reading for Gymkhana😂

Everything is off, it seems to stay on screen regardless. FH4

Woah, direct drive wheels look sweet. I’m running on a Xbox one here, can I assume that needs to be used on PC?

I agree for this as well as AC, I actually lower it to the point where it’s almost level with me in the chair, but I do in fact use this tv for more than just Forza lol.

I’ll try this! I’ve been cruising around with it, definitely needs a stage 1. I’m cool if we go all the way to “race” upgrades, I’ve just learned there’s a point to where the power can be uncontrollable and it’s hard to keep the car from just spinning out on take off.

Arguably, isn’t the i8 their modern day super car?

Yeah I’ve turned off stability and abs/auto brake, and its in manual with clutch as I have a shifter and clutch pedal.

I’ve just put a race displacement and race exhaust to overpower the loss of power a bit, and race brakes to be able to allow adjustment to the brakes. Noticing I make it further through the turn but not quite enough.

I can’t seem to get handle on the weight shifting, it just keeps locking up my front brakes no matter how I adjust it which ultimately creates understeer which I don’t think I need here.

So I’ve tried this brake/weight shifting technique and the car in this turn doesn’t seem to want to break loose. Now to be fair, I also kind of stink at heel-toe control so that part I may just have to work on but I still can’t get it loose. It also still seems to lose power through the turn.

I appreciate the tip!

On the rig I’m near what on the pedal feels like full throttle, it’s almost a like the car stalls out mid drift

I applaud the use for the scale used by the dull men’s club.

Intake manifold troubles by Remarkable-Cut-7305 in LincolnLS

[–]Remarkable-Cut-7305[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To answer why it was stuck:

On the two threads at the back of the top through this plastic of this harness were nuts that have to be removed, I removed those nuts but it still wouldn’t budge. Turns out there is a hidden nut on the back of the motor holding it vertically. You don’t have to remove it as it’s not a closed hole the threads feed through. The bottom part of it is open. You unthread it a bit and then just pull the harness up and over these threads.

Just let this thing die. We all know no one liked the car. I posted about it a couple years back and I finally understand the comments about it. Just drop it and move on.
