  1. I wish I had a Subaru worth owning your Audi in.
  2. IIRC "T" also had the LSD package. I could be wrong, but I think that's right.
  3. How does this happen? You got banned from the oven? lol
  4. They are saying that snow will be light, but cold will own us this year.
  5. That Remington will do you right and so will the ATI. You do have a lot of choices. Get what feels best to you.
  6. It's a CCW gun, designed for 15 feet or less. NO SNAG = milled sights down the slide. Plus, when you put it in someone's mouth you don't get it stuck in their teef. I should have just quoted everyone at once.
  7. You've never asked me. I have seen 10x more issues with their semi auto's than with their revolvers. Neither are great, but the semi's just plain suck dirty hole.
  8. Rock Island Armory if you're into the base model pricing. Trust me, they're world's ahead of Springy. Do not get yourself a modern GI model. They suck pretty bad if you don't know what you're doing and want to mod it. If you can find a Colt for $599 that would be my first choice. Keep the cash, add to it, be patient and you will find what you want. Do not rush!
  9. Well, I might just be fixing the S4. If that's the case, it's on! Although I bet a Subaru would hook better, but not be as fast.
  10. I'll respect that. I feel the same way about Subaru for the most part.
  11. I have owned one VW and it wasn't super reliable, either. Definitely no B5 S4, though. I knew going in there were potential problems with the S4. However, make no mistake the car failed because of Audi's inherent design flaw, not because it was highly modified. At first I blamed the modifications, but in the end it was Audi's infinite wisdom that caused the issues that made the car FAIL. I have friends who own or have owned Audi's and had issues as well. Not nearly modified enough to get out of their own way, though. Read: very near stock, stage 1 or less. There is no doubt that if I wanted to get into a wreck with a large, heavy object and live, there is no doubt in my mind that I would want to be in a b5 or big body benz. I survived a severe wreck in a Subaru vs a pcp'd fool on a crotch rocket and it held up like a champ, too. Every time I look around I see someone with an Audi having problems. I have been a member of vortex for years and have scanned through those threads on occasion and have seen nothing but issues for anything other than stock VAGs. I also see daily issues every time I logged into Audizine. I'm not knocking the people owning the cars, I'm knocking the cars. Their not for me and I am certainly not for them and I'm more than ok with that.
  12. Paul, Audi's are fail, super design fail. Just look at my POS.
  13. White, or paint it all white.
  14. Man if all this interest, I should teach classes.
  15. Here's a vouch for Terron. Picked up my P90 from him. Great guy, showed me what to expect and all. Highly recommended. I'll post a thread eventually with results, etc.
  16. I am proud of you and I hope I can make a similar thread very soon. You can spray that motor pretty well and there are some great swaps for it if you decide to keep it. I'll swear off VAG for life. My German car fascination is Porsche, and that is all. I respect the Audi cars, but never again to I ever want another car I cannot figure out/work on myself. I kick myself every day for not sticking with URABUS. If it doesn't have a warranty I wouldn't consider it. Even then, it will most likely have problems so you better have a backup. I tried VAG, paid my dues, said fuck a Kraut-mobile and will soon be moving on.
  17. No sir. Commencing part out/selling whole car very soon. The fool that sent me the ECU confirmed with me it was for an S4 multiple times before I bought it and it was not. I am waiting to see what he is going to do about it. Depending on his answer, the car will be sold/traded/parted as-is. It is indeed an ECU. Here's a video: Here's another:
  18. Got myself an M box. Need to recode it to H and then we'll see what happens. The right way to do it from there is take it to a GIAC dealer and let them put the updated tune on it. Apparently there have been four updates since mine was incepted. According to a guy who has a time slip and an identically modded car (except he has drag slicks) went from an 11.4 time slip to 10.7 just off a re-tune and new clutch, and of course the tires. I might just toss the chip on the board and not re-tune it. I am beyond done dealing with it and have some great trades lined up.
  19. This reminds me that I need to get a new receiver since my gf spilled liquid in my old HK AVR.
  20. I'll agree with this and usually quite paranoid. :bangbang:
  21. As long as you don't have any wind, it's amazing.
  22. We have completely different perspectives on this. And that's fine, I just know what I know from what I've actually seen. I have real world experience and you have classroom experience. I've been hit in the head multiple times with a lead pipe and I'm still here. Yes, I probably could have been hurt or died, but that didn't happen. I'm not saying I can't be wrong, but I have been in a lot of different situations with knives, guns, bats, machine guns, etc pointed at me and I'm still here. If you want to just pull guns on people that's fine, but realize it can be the wrong move and realize there is always someone who can pull that trigger faster and more accurately than you can. Pulling a gun out doesn't necessarily mean you have the advantage in the situation at all. I've seen plenty of people proven wrong by this and a lot of them are cops.
  23. You know the answer to that. I wouldn't have pulled out my gun. There are plenty of other ways to deal with a situation like that than pull a gun. I'm not afraid to take a hit from a baseball bat, I've taken much worse than that before. Once they introduce a gun into the situation, then I'll pull mine unless I feel like carving a fool up. I'm not saying I am billy bad ass, but I have seen enough and personally been a part of enough to know how to resolve serious situations without the use of a firearm.
  24. I don't mind the keyboard, especially after having probably the worst "swype" phone ever, the Cliq XT. I don't have huge fingers and I cannot use it properly, but can on other phones. The screen is ridiculously small for a touchscreen only phone. I am jealous, I am still on 1.5 OS on this blur. I miss Nav so much!
