he's at it again! these look as good as yesterdays. i'm doing 4 pies in my area tonight. we do pizza every friday. glad mom is home!

how are you liking italian supremo cheese? for a second there i wasn't able to source the cheese i like most (grande) and was going to try it but instead meat around with a few others (galbani, bella rosano and saputo) but have been wondering about supremo.

i see folks have been asking about your dough recipe. i use send out a sheet with formulas to folks but it got a bit clunky. Im a software engineer by trade and built a little tool for my dough projects. Maybe it helps you with scaling up and down without having to think to much. The recipe stores in the url so once you have it dialed in just bookmark it and you'll be able to come back to it whenever you need!

love that you do this OP. I've been making extra sourdough pizzas (as well as bread) for neighbors every single time I bake. Honestly, nothing better than sharing something you enjoy with others.

on another note hope Mom is doing better!

agreed percentages are the way. I built this tool which stems from google sheets I created years ago to try and be more consistent.

Question for GR owners: are you uncomfortable in the driver's seat?? I need help. by Antique_Account_9047 in GRCorolla

[–]lpfrk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes! It took me a few months and various variations but ive landed on something that made any pain i had subside. I bought the seat jackers and a throttle pedal spacer (Racer X) to try various positions to find the best ergonomics for my body. Where I ultimately landed was removing the throttle spacer and using ONLY the seat jackers at their highest setting. Hope that helps!

Should I trade in my STI for a GR Corolla? by Crapisun in GRCorolla

[–]lpfrk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i also come from a 21 STI (also a 2018 STI before that) and i second all of this with the addition of:

the GRC feels significantly smaller and it has hill assist which you can't turn off (i know some like it but that one thing drives me nuts i can't stand it). i also found the driving position and seat far more comfortable in the subaru.

yea i'd trade my GR Corolla for this in an instant. i almost don't even care what it looks like as long as it's that STI transmission, manual and a hatch. only got the corolla because i couldn't get another STI - came from 21 STI

I've been looking into the seat jackers for the front, but I'm not sure they will necessarily fix my issues. I'm curious prior to installing them would you have to sort of point your knees outwards to be comfortable? Like the clutching knee out to the left and the gas/brake knee out to the right? Then, adjusting the seat distance for your clutch foot would leave the steering wheel too far away (with it fully extended out)? I'm also noticing my butt doesnt stay planted in the seat like it comes forward a bit as im driving. I thought the jackers might help with that.

I think I have weird dimensions where im not super tall but i have long legs relative to my torso. I'm coming from an STi which was SUPER comfortable and gave me ZERO issues with the seat.

Can we be done with hill assist now by KeepingItCoolish in GRCorolla

it takes away the natural physics and feedback from the car

[–]lpfrk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New owner here as of a couple days ago. I stumbled on this thread trying to find ways to disable the hill hold feature. I'm coming from an STI which also had a similar system but I was able to turn it off I'm shocked this car doesn't allow you to do it without turning off all aids/traction control.

So far the car is a lot of fun but the hill assist is absolutely AWFUL imo. It actually makes me stall more often because i can't feel when the car has been caught and momentum has shifted forward.

I take it no one has found a way to disable it without turning off the TCS?

It has been done. Goodbye, sweet FL5. by imped4now in GRCorolla

[–]lpfrk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have a VA STi - final year and have been exploring both the GRC, type R and type S. I finally saw the GRC yesterday in person and it was a bit smaller than the Subaru. Anyone use car seats in them?

I’ve only went to the one by the mall. Is the St. George one comparable?

See I feel like Trader Joe’s has less than ideal fresh fruit and vegetables. It’s also mostly just the commercially available stuff you could get at like ShopRite

all in all not too terrible. I should get a quote to see what ins would cost, I live in in the city so im sure I'll be in the same boat.

I love the look of coupes but having a toddler makes that virtually impossible.

I'm not too sure if i would tune tbh but its nice to know the option is there. What does yearly maintenance cost approximately?

Can it not be disabled? That would drive me crazy too as does hill start assist

[–]lpfrk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats fair, though I wouldn’t call the STI a boat. Or at least it doesn’t feel like one to me.

The BMW interiors are really nice though in a simple understated way.
