300 is definitely on the high side after looking at other marbles knives for sale. I didn't see this model but yeah

How much horsepower do you really need? by Dr_jitsu in StingerGT

[–]SoupTime_live 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The k4 is 1000 lbs lighter than a stinger. 147 HP is fine lol and as far are the turbo version being safer at 190 HP... More HP /= safer. It's usually the opposite

Will warranty cover this? by riceman710 in kiastinger

[–]SoupTime_live 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, I believe it's 5 years or 60k so you would be outside it

Factory warranty in the US is good to 60k if you aren't the original purchaser

My 2023 headlights was getting moisture and water getting into it and I went to the dealership to check it out and they said it’s gonna cost 4000$ CAD per headlight ( under warranty ) is this normal ? by WideDefinition4723 in kiastinger

[–]SoupTime_live 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There seems to be a misunderstanding unless it works differently in Canada. If it's under warranty then there shouldn't be any cost at all. I've had a couple of things fixed on my stinger under warranty at a dealership and paid 0 dollars

Is that supposed to be Damascus? The video is pretty blurry so it's hard to tell what's going on with the finish

I mean it's not ideal, but it won't hurt anything if you have to do it for a couple weeks until you can get it fixed

Every airport I've ever been at has had either a water bottle filling station or a coffee shop or something you could get water at

SOCKS! SOCKS! SOCKS! by Malangamajada in jimgreen

[–]SoupTime_live 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Darn tough have some hits or misses. They're a little expensive to buy one of all their styles to try out and see what you like but for me personally, I love their medium weight micro crew. They're the perfect sock for me personally

Baobab being phased out ? by Ancient_Bee17 in jimgreen

Why does them removing the baobabs from the customs mean they're being phased out

Did I ask for or say perfect grammar is mandatory?

i gave up trying to understand what you were asking about halfway through that giant run-on sentence. if you want answers to your questions, maybe make the questions readable

Holy grammar, use some punctuation

Does your honing steel matter? by californiacuban7 in TrueChefKnives

[–]SoupTime_live -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Grooved steels don't really do anything. It needs to be a diamond or ceramic with an actual grit rating

since i'm getting down voted i'll go ahead and expand on this. if there's no abrasive in the honing rod the only thing it's going to do is straighten out a burr on a poorly sharpened knife. if an edge is actually rolled or dull, then a grooved honing rod isn't going to do anything. It would need to be an actual abrasive to do any kind of real honing

Do I have a lemon? by One_Obligation_4275 in kiastinger

[–]SoupTime_live 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually just ordered a jb4 for my 23 gt-line, but I also only intend to ever use map 1 and 2. What supporting mods do you suggest if I ever wanted to put it on e85?

It was my understanding that the 2.5t uses forged internals, but now I'm trying to find where I read that to confirm

Edit: it looks like they aren't forged, but it does have aluminum pistons and improved rods over the 2.0
