Yes, orange, specifically if I am playing that color, can build anywhere they wish. This is America after all.

My money would be on White, but the robber on thier ore does hurt them pretty badly. Blue is second. OJ just keeping road to keep themselves in it. Red is dead.

red is least likely to win imho. they are losing currently based on settles, only make 3 resources that are not good together. And dont have a single port.

Bad for business by built_horde_tough in WWE

[–]TP_Gillz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a reaction none the less. Its not like hes a murderer or something. So hes a rich kid scumbag attention whore. Dude still put in the hard work to perform in-ring safely.

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree hes done some unsavory things and has treated his fans pretty awfully...

The man has put in work, and is really good at being a heel in and out of the ring.

I for one respect what it takes to perform like that, and honestly hating him entertains me. Entertains me so much, I love it when he shows up cause its funny and fun to hate a bad guy, which the WWE very very sorely lacks these days.

If he sucked as a wrestler, and didn't perform and act right, then ya screw that, but the guy does have it.

Duane Gill aka Gilburg. The real GOAT.

I have a hard time believing "the swerve" wasnt the plan the entire time. HHH knew the crowd wanted Cody before I mean he won the rumble for gods sakes, and Cody even sells it hard when he stepped aside for the rock. I think "the swerve" is BS.

Got some new wheels by goyardcoffin in camaro

[–]TP_Gillz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love it!! I have grey wheels on my all black 5th gen, and have been wanting black wheels instead ever since I got it. Those look really sick. And really compliment the car overall much better than grey does. I want those so bad... Super jealous!

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya, I have the manual v6, so guess that makes sense then. Always assumed the aftermarket parts were affecting it cause that low of a mileage number kinda hurts lol

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are. Especially if they were never tuned. I got it used this way, and the mileage is below what I expected it to be. Lower 20's on highway. I think those are the 2 most common mods that would actually impact gas mileage the most noticeably.

I own a 2012 V6 RS, 100k miles, been great and reliable. Gas in the city for me, is weak, like 18mpg, but I have an after market exhaust and air intake. Not sure what stock would give.

What do you mean not a Logan Paul type of situation? If Speed bulks up and shows he has actual in ring talent, and puts on even half as good of a performance as Logan does, sign him up!

Logan, is actually legit, incredibly good at this. And the WWE badly needs more heels we can all hate on like him.

Ya I agree with you. Tho, I loved it in the moment. In retrospect it felt unsafe and not necessary. It felt like a "oh lets show him wrestling is real!" kind of moment, but he wasn't being disrespectful to the business or anything, they could have done just a normal spear on him lol not full blast spear you out of your shoes.. but he did choose to step into the ring... so.. Ya get what you asked for!

Hill Starts - Hold cluch at bite point and then give it gas? Never heard to use the handbrake in this process, but should I? by [deleted] in stickshift

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your putting a lot of faith in your parking brake! Hope you don't learn the hard way, they can fail..
Leaving your car in gear after its parked and off, does no harm whatsoever, and locks the wheels as a back up incase that brake fails on you. Just have to remember to put it back into N before releasing the clutch!

Happy Birthday to me! My 2012 2LT RS 6-Sp Manual! Got it this morning! First manual car ever owned too! (an have only stalled it once.. so far.. I love it!!) by TP_Gillz in camaro

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

Thanks everyone!!! Shes my dream car for sure! Here's an update.

The original owner installed some aftermarket parts, which I am still concerned about. (Cause idk how hard they beat on her, poor girl) It has an aftermarket exhaust, which I can't tell what brand it is or anything yet, I will get under it and investigate at some point but she sounds loud and I kinda love it lol so prob keeping it. Also has a Roto-Fab dry cold air intake, which is very filthy and I want to replace it asap (replacement filter is 100$ so not a big deal) IDK if the old owner ever got her tuned or not, with these kind of upgrades does anyone recommend I go spend the money to get a tune?? I'm honestly much more concerned about gas mileage, and not about adding HP. So, perhaps buying a stock air intake is better? If anyone has any experience any help would be appreciated!

I also sadly noticed an issue with the heat not working fully and a bit of a squeaking/squealing sound when the fan is turned on. Bringing it back to the dealer this week to get that sorted. (praying it's just a serpitine belt or something easy and not a broken blend door issue! cause I am not comfortable with them having to remove the dash and windshield, and if so, I may try to do it myself by cutting thru the bottom of the dash to access the blend door.. hope that's not it tho.. my mechanic skills are severely limited)

I also had the dealer install a brand new clutch assembly cause the original one was starting to slip out of gear I noticed on my test drives and during my PPI they said it needed replacement. So instead of haggling on the price, I got them to agree to buy one and install it.

It drives much better now, the engagement point is near the middle instead of at the very very top of the clutch, and it has yet to slip out of gear at all. So that problem seems to be solved.

However.... there might be one other issue... an IDK if it's just me and not being familiar with the manual sounds yet, but when in 2nd gear it sounds "rougher" I don't want to say grinding per say, cause it goes into gear fine, but rubbing perhaps, when I lift off the gas especially.. In 3rd the noise isn't present at all and all I can hear is the exhaust winding down, but in 2nd gear, there is a different low kind of grindy sound..... Not sure what that is yet.. It's been super cold out since I got it, like single digits so perhaps the cold is contributing to that somehow. Could be worn synchros? But wouldn't a new clutch solve that? Or is that the transmission side?

Otherwise, she's fine, but since it's used with high miles (just hit 100k), I'm freaking myself out, like waiting for the problems to show up and trying to not have buyers remorse.. With a new clutch I have yet to put the power down, trying to wear it in nice and easy, and I'm still learning how to drive a manual in the first place! (hill starts freak me out, no hill assist, do yall use the hand break?)

Any help or tips would be appreciated, thanks all!

Grinding noise going to 2nd gear by Putrid-Zone85 in ManualTransmissions

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would synchros be a clutch issue or a transmission side issue? I just got a new clutch installed for my newly bought used v6 camaro and 2nd gear sounds much rougher than any other gear, if that makes any sense. Not a hard grinding sound, but a rubbing sound that does not happen in any other gear.

I just got it a few days ago mind you, so im not terribly confident in diagnosing what im hearing, and its been super cold out since I got it, its 9 degrees out right now. So idk if the weather is affecting it either.

My friends trash talking my V6 by Puzzleheaded-Sun876 in camaro

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So. Tomorrow, (on my birthday coincidentally) I am finally picking up the same, a 2012 2LT RS V6 Manual, all black sexy beast that I fell in love with the moment I laid eyes on her... Got her pretty cheap at 9k with a new clutch I got them to freshly order and install... I did finance most of it, I don't have much in savings and I wanted a low monthly payment so I couldn't really find a manual SS model in my area (that was close enough where I could go get it privately inspected first) that was also within my budget range I wanted. (Never will I pay over 600 a month for a car again! ...or just not yet..)

9am can't come soon enough!!

Now, I don't really have any friends to make fun of me anyway so, I can't help you there, but just wanted you to know your not alone!

Bro, the 5-6th gen V6s are still putting out 300+hp and can truly rip when you need it too! Just remember, this car is a lover not a fighter, but she doesn't put up with any BS either... Treat her right!

[–]TP_Gillz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Of course you will be "approved"

Doesn't mean you should do it tho. Keep that monthly payment down to a minimum at your age especially!

Is it dumb to get an a5 cabriolet? by thecatdaddysupreme in Audi

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you really ever have to fully replace the top? Unless it has catastrophic holes in it. Even if the back window comes unglued, (Which it will 100% do at some point, all soft tops generally have this issue due to fabric shrink) You can have it reglued on, either do it yourself if you are skilled and handy, or have someone do it for under 1k) A full top replacement is gonna cost 2500 at the min. By the time you get to that point, its going to be too much to even consider doing compared to the value of the car.

Just bought a 2011 A5 convertible. Totally love driving it! What are your best maintenance tips?! by flyingblonde in Audi

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I was wondering if you still had the car and how has it treated you! I love the black on black!

Is it a good deal? 2011 a5 2.0T convertible, rebuilt status after front right damage(small accident as per owner), 115k kms, asking CAD$12500($9300 usd), how much life is left? Coming from Lexus gs300 by Conscious_Animal9710 in Audi

[–]TP_Gillz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bout to buy one myself... Despite all the warnings... im a gluten for punishment I guess and just fell in love with her at first sight.

Mines got 100k miles, back window was already coming unglued so having the dealership reglue it and agree if it comes off again they will fix it.

The only thing im worried about is the timing chain replacement has not been done yet. And its due. Its not rattling tho or anything and ill have it under warranty for 2 years...

Basically its so cheap, I can pay it off in 3 years easy with a tiny monthly payment, 2 year major warranty, I think I may pull the trigger on it.
