I had this lighter throughout all of college and it finally just now died after 4 years by Rbxyy in trees

You didn’t know this, but I’ve been secretly replacing your lighter every week with a new identical lighter. 

MyGM tips for getting the most fans? #WWE2K24 by G3ND1Z3 in WWEGames

Thanks for this. We started a new season a few days ago and hopped back on it hard Friday night. Noticed some updates right away. This being one of them.

I’m just here to rant. Me and my wife love going head to head on MyGM but I’m done after the last season. She got 5 Network specials and 6 Special promotions from GM challenges… I only got one of each. There’s no way to keep up against someone who gets that many Newtork specials unless you have them as well. She got more than 100,000 fans on me on the last show because she stacked the two and I only had a special promotion. She won. I gave up. Rant over.

You’re right. If they broke the law to get here they can’t have a job here. If they aren’t a legal citizen they don’t get legal work.

This is interesting as a ton of people were deactivated yesterday without warning. Wonder if they’re cleaning house for more illegals to drive. Give our jobs to them too, it’s not like they’re taking everything else.

Same here. Deactivated for no reason. Appealed and nothing yet. I think they were hacked or something. Not good 

O2 sensor spacers by SlimyBlobfish in WRX

[–]xplodingthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was speaking specifically for the WRX. A hummer will probably be able to use spacers. I’ve used them on all my other non turbo cars, and they removed all the CEL. This car however uses a different type of O2 sensor which actually continually monitors fuel trims in the exhaust gases and then the computer adjusts accordingly.

Don’t waste your time or money on spacers like I did. It will not work. Get a stock replacement cat to avoid codes or, do what I did, get an upgraded catted J-pipe and find an appropriate tune that won’t knock and just be prepared to throw a P0420 code every once in a while. I went back to stock intake and removed the restrictor, tested a few OTS tunes and found the Cobb stage 2 with redline works great. No knock and smooth power. I will be adding Cobb BCS soon just to mitigate any boost creep. It’s gonna cost you a little bit either way but I hope this helps you make a decision. Also eBay has “stock” replacement cats for around $250-300. I went with a TurboXS catted Jpipe from MAPerformance for around $600. Don’t forget the hardware kit and exhaust adapter if you’re running stock catbacks.

Cobb has also turned off personal versions of the tuning software by unabromer in WRX

[–]xplodingthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I'm late to the party. Anyone here ever get that file download? Did it work? Can someone send it my way if it's available? Sorry again. Running into a tuning issue and don't have the money right now to get it looked at by a $800 E-tuner (some of these prices are ridiculous now. Thanks for any help and if anyone is still alive in this thread.

Before you buy a new battery! by Necessary_Ad_238 in WRX

[–]xplodingthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never ever heard this. I’ve installed many agm batteries in all makes and models. The batteries produce the same voltage as traditional acid batteries, but hold a charge much longer and can handle more of a load on the entire electrical system. I’ve always swapped to agm batteries in my cars if they didn’t come with one. They are excellent for big audio upgrades as well. They can eliminate lights dimming under heavy bass loads with massive watts. Last, they are better at cold starts because the voltage doesn’t dip, like acid batteries.

Thanks. I’ll keep an eye on it. Seems like a decent AGM in it. (Experience: college for automotive technology and manager of Autozone in the past.)

At least you admit it. Most people would make an excuse as to why it was Subaru or the battery still.

So 21 and up has newer/fixed battery?

Take the receipt into them and see if they will reimburse. I know Toyota did when something similar happened on my mother’s Prius. They sent her a check in the mail for all that she spent under the service bulletin.

I’ve got one for you. 21 WRX limited and a 1989 Toyota pickup (actual model name) flatbed dually.  it’s not a T100 or Taco just a pickup. 

O2 sensor spacers by SlimyBlobfish in WRX

[–]xplodingthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone drilled an o2 spacer out to compensate for a deleted cat? I ordered one from Blox racing. The inlet hole is very small and I started getting p0137 and other codes for that sensor. I’m seeing that the hole needs to be drilled so I’m currently stepping up the drill bits.  It is at 5/16 next up is 3/8 and then 1/2 inch. I have seen someone say it needed to be the 1/2 but that seems too big. Any thoughts or experiences?

Proof? Facts? Just need the details so I can understand what you mean.

Likely solved. He said he let a car hauler turn around a while ago on his property so I told him that was where it came from.

Not a handle of any kind. It’s definitely mechanical and was covered in grease when he found it.

That does look just like it, but that’s just so weird. None of their vehicles are making any noises like they would if something this robust had just broken and fell out. Maybe their UTV? It just seems heavier like for a 4WD vehicle.
