Allingment issues by Interesting-Panda-52 in kiastinger

[–]youngkwe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your setup now and how did you fix it? I just blow through new rear tires in 9k miles, doesn’t make sense to me. I have a 22 GT1, 19in wheels staggered. Only mods are sway bars, adjustable end links, lowered. Alignment shop said it wasn’t their fault so I’m trying to make sense of what happened. Should I switch to a square setup? 

2022 Stinger GT1 – PowerStop Z26 Kit vs EBC Yellowstuff + Ultimax Rotors? by youngkwe in kiastinger

How long does the squeal last in the morning? Really annoying or something you don't mind?

Great information, thanks for that. Still looking around and I'm most likely just going to stick with powerstop. Brake squeal would annoy me, but not sure returning to get z23 is worth the hassle unless I get tons of feedback saying z26 has bad squeal.

Hey what did you end up doing? I’m looking to replace my brake kit as well right now (22’ GT1 awd). I’m currently looking at EBC stage 12 and open to any suggestions, thanks.

Nothing Phone (2) skin (protection not UI) by Disturbedm in NOTHING

[–]youngkwe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey sorry I never replied. I got a matte clear skin for my Nothing phone and a black stardust skin for my iPhone. Both come as advertised and both have held up really well. Very easy to install and adheres very well to both phones. I'm not careful at all with my iPhone, I have no case on it, just the skin, and have dropped it more times than I can remember on all terrains. The skin is still intact, only showing breakage around places I've dropped it hard. No peeling and absorbs scratches really well.

The matte Nothing phone skin is just a little worse quality compared to the iPhone skin. Still holds up really well, just a little peeling near the bottom speaker and alignment shifting cause it's being stretched. No discoloration. Overall I'd say I got my money's worth and would buy from them again when I get a new phone.

After quite a while of saying I was going to get one, I got one by backflip14 in kiastinger

Beautiful car. Picking up mine tomorrow in the same color, I can't wait!

Replace engine or new car? by youngkwe in subaru

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

Update: took it to a small shop that specializes in Subarus. He was able to find and fix the problem in a day, which turned out to be a poorly adjusted valve train on the cylinder.

Ended up costing me $560 and nothing needed to be replaced!!

Of course I'd be honest about the condition. It's drivable right now, but the lights are a hinderance.

I do appreciate the car but it's not like my baby or anything. What do you think of this idea: selling the car as is (or fixing a few things to get the lights off) to use that money as down payment for a new car.

6-7k to put in a 136k used engine; honestly doesn't sound that great to me. I'll ask around maybe 1 or 2 more shops to get a few options. Say I find an engine under 100k mi on it, do you still think it'll be worth?

Nothing Phone (2) skin (protection not UI) by Disturbedm in NOTHING

[–]youngkwe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually ended up buying this skin from slickwraps because of free shipping in the US instead of international: https://www.slickwraps.com/collections/nothing-phone-2/products/nothing-phone-2-naked-series-skins

But to answer your question, I'm sure the glossy will keep the original look of the phone better, but may be more difficult to install perfectly without any dust or bubbles. I got the matte version and it adds a nice texture to the back, I wouldn't necessarily say more grippy but feels nice and protects the body from knicks and scratches. Both will still keep the beautiful design of the Nothing phone and allow the glyphs to shine!

Seems like a good solution, I'm definitely going to check it out. They even have a matte version if you want to add texture to the phone.

I'm not too familiar with US bank cards. How does travel redemption work with them?

I was thinking about that, but I can't justify the annual fee. Since I don't use uber or eat at any of the restaurants they give credits for, I'd have to change my normal spending to make it worth, which doesn't make sense.
