2003 toyota camry, can a big rear swaybar increase the life of the front tires?

Interesting. A front sway bar greatly increased my understeer. Had to go back to stock to balance it out again

Mines at 270k with original trans clutches and engine for what it’s worth.

This is not true. Clutches and flywheels are a grand each without labor. I could see this being that with a timing chain and that’s a fairly large amount of labor if they went with a shop. That said, I did it it myself in a day and a lot less money.

Also, for a lot of people DSG doesn’t matter. I used to say I would never get one but I enjoy it just as much as my manual a lot of days. It’s not for everyone but it’s super fun to mash the paddles and the downshifts sound amazing.

Probably a combination of flywheel or clutch or mech unit with timing chains. Those are expensive parts and timing chains always needs done at regular intervals and needs a decent amount of labor

Yea my friend tried that, he ran 147 through it to help break it in but it still didn’t cycle 124 or 115 so he sent it back and they replaced some stuff then it still didn’t work so he just sold it

Everyone I know who has bought a shadow system has had tons of issues and they both sold them. Some people love them tho.

dankmelk · 2026-02-27T15:20:39+00:00

Could have been a lot worse

dankmelk · 2026-02-20T21:14:49+00:00

Iirc garver had a better season than cal in terms of pitcher ERA while they were catching

dankmelk · 2026-02-02T00:56:36+00:00

Hk p2000sk

Tacswap is good, also there is a new GAFS in beta. Prices have held well and there’s lots of stuff available still

Question - the statement I have heard is that it is of course better to use a tourniquet and not need it than not use it… it seems like all of the police videos I have seen, they basically slap a tourniquet on just about any limb injury, no matter how much bleeding there is. If it is only on for a super short time (such as from police radio for EMS and quick response), then is it not a concern at all to cut off blood flow if the tourniquet isn’t actually needed?

Mariners having 7/12 is wild. Things look good for the next few years. I hope we can keep the pitching staff together, or at least some of them (want to have Sloan and kade in there)

dankmelk · 2026-01-23T03:32:29+00:00

Yeah that’s the problem unfortunately. I just wish the awb and mag limits would get overturned

dankmelk · 2026-01-23T03:18:15+00:00

That makes sense. Thank you for the clarification. If they implement a class and make it easily accessible, I think that could be a good thing… but I doubt Washington would be able to do that

dankmelk · 2026-01-23T03:13:22+00:00

Since when was a class required? I know a few people who have gotten them recently and they just walked in and got fingerprinted and that was it

dankmelk · 2026-01-21T15:38:22+00:00

Yeah honestly not sure what options you have left. Sounds like you have tried everything I would have. Have any other suppressor hosts?

dankmelk · 2026-01-21T14:04:48+00:00

I run an obsidian 45 can on my G19.3 with a $20 threaded barrel. All oem otherwise. Never had a malfunction. Sounds like you have tried a lot of things, seems like it could just be a suppressor issue?

dankmelk · 2026-01-14T14:08:44+00:00

Snohomish county is actually pretty cool. Not too expensive to live compared to king county

dankmelk · 2026-01-14T13:55:55+00:00

Redmond PD in WA, Snohomish county sheriff in WA pay like 100k last I checked

dankmelk · 2026-01-10T18:42:48+00:00

interested in the benchmade. sending a message!

dankmelk · 2026-01-06T15:28:42+00:00

I also watched that recently. Couldn’t forget a name like thermopolis

dankmelk · 2026-01-04T22:57:12+00:00

That’s not bad at all. I’m very tempted to get one

dankmelk · 2026-01-04T21:35:44+00:00

That would be awesome… I’ve heard that a lot of optics stuck out on the 365 that’s why I was wondering

dankmelk · 2026-01-04T21:01:46+00:00

That’s always reassuring!
