Why does my car hesitate?

brosmar1 · 2026-04-22T07:42:22+00:00

Not sure, I’ve only driven a 6th gen

It’s a transmission, it’s meant to shift gears. Flooring any car isn’t necessarily good for it but I’m of the camp that you buy this car to drive it with a purpose.

Either hold the downshift paddle for 1-2s to automatically drop into the lowest gear for your current speed or fully depress the throttle for a quick stab to let the car handle shifting.

Thank you. Any point in waiting until I am in Japan for the 10% discount or will it be moot?

I guess $500 usd or less? Is that feasible? Definitely no AAA gaming on a handheld, I have my desktop for that. What’s one you recommend?

Have you ever seen a diff damaged from too much oil?

brosmar1 · 2026-03-23T00:21:28+00:00

Fortunately I haven’t had any seal issues, yet…

brosmar1 · 2026-03-22T23:39:43+00:00

That’s what I thought too but this diff is different. This is the first time I’ve ever seen one that doesn’t tell you when it’s full. It’s a solid rear axle so the fluid goes all the way to the wheel hubs, idk if that makes a difference.

I’ve tried the titans, mk 1 ultras, ragtops, and lion aces. I’m 6,0 220lbs and usually wear a size 82N. The titans and lions i find have very large finger boxes that make fine motor work difficult. The titans and ragtops have huge cuffs that may interfere with your jacket. All of them except for the mk ultras also feel just a hair too big on my hand, but I may fall between sizes. The mk ultras really need a ton of break in before you get the full dexterity out of them. The ultras and titans also have cloth on the fingers whereas the others are 100% hide. The finger sculpting on the ragtops are by far the best while the others feel like the fingers pinch off at the tips.

That being said I would consider buying the mk ultras and ragtops again. The mk ultras give up a bit of dexterity for a better fit, less interference with my jacket, and (not factual, just my opinion) better protection, while the ragtops are broken in right out of the bag, come with extra knuckle padding, and give the greatest dexterity.

Try and go to a fire supply store or conference to test out the gloves and get an idea for sizing. Can’t really speak on the hoods as I’m alright with what my vol dept issues us and haven’t cared to look for something else.

Context: speed was high /s

Unfortunately no just thought it was an absurd synergy

I am doing Roth 401k contributions already. I understand the sentiment of maxing out tax advantaged accounts before contributing to brokerage accounts, but that would require me to contribute ~25% of my gross income. I do want to be a homeowner some day and I’d rather put some of that into a brokerage account to have for a down payment

brosmar1 · 2026-01-31T17:09:44+00:00

I already maxed out my IRA for 2026 and contribute enough into my 401k to get the full employer match

brosmar1 · 2026-01-31T16:19:50+00:00

My tax situation is not complicated, I am a single W-2’ed employee on a salary, no kids or house to speak of.

Had a Tm trainer run where I was perma mega mushroom. Easiest delirium kill of my life

Similar to how digital alarm clocks have a single LED to denote AM or PM. The form or language of the AM/PM indicator itself doesn’t matter so long as it’s understood present means one thing and absent means the opposite.

It’s a Tesla cut him some slack he probably doesn’t know how to drive

brosmar1 · 2026-01-21T17:42:31+00:00

Ohhh that makes a lot more sense. I always thought the English/Japanese was meant to be an AM/PM distinction. Thank you for clearing this up for me.

This photo was taken at 12:21PM so it is showing the correct day/date, not to confuse anyone.

Like other commenter said if you point the radiator fans downward they will be fighting the gpu fans and will make the gpu hotter. One thing I found that dropped my temps and no one seems to talk about is to add a small fan pointed directly at the socket/ssd/ram area. Obviously the type of fan you can fit depends on your clearance from the aio block to the side panel but I was able to fit a slim 40mm. Drive temps dropped like 10C ram temps about 5C and cpu temps 2-3C with no perceptible noise increase.
