  1. Who the fuck actually types out y'all? A tool, that's who.
  2. This is besides the "football facts" that show OSU as the best resume in football. Go look at the 2014 ratings, vs last year too The day the games were played had little to do with it, IMO.
  3. Yeah, probably more of a track car than I'd want to drive daily too. ALABAMA LOL.
  4. I've heard mini coopers are fun.
  5. 2002 trailblazer 150k miles, bought new but years of bedded in dirt. Similar to op. Impressive results Tim!
  6. They are capable cars, but as rymer said the owners usually can't drive. Some maintenance, attention to brakes and suspension, and some good tires would yield a pretty enjoyable car, I'd think. This is assuming you can deal with the fail of FWD. I'm guessing you're not lucky enough for yours to have the optional LSD of the early cars?
  7. Awesome work! Car looks beautiful. You are giving me just the motivation I need to put mine into "service mode" and spend a few weeks detailing it. What do you use to get the rubber smears off the paint? Any tips for post hpde care would be great.
  8. never heard of indoor basketball where you didn't have to pay, either membership to club or for the 2 hour time
  9. Grant, if you have a couple guys, we can rent a columbus/westerville gym for something like $50 for 2 hours. Best way I've found, or just luck into games at Westerville Community center like mentioned above. Most times I've gone it's just a bunch of 15 year olds that suck.
  10. I'm not sure how you could have watched the first half and say weather wasn't a large factor. EDIT: AND the 4th quarter You're not wrong, say the other 49% is execution, but still.
  11. This is a frustrating game to watch. I'm predicting the weather won't get the "credit" it deserves should we pull this out.
  12. This was my #1 disappointment. More of the same, while good, they have the potential to be even better if they drop all the schtick, IMO. Made me laugh each time. He was mildly entertaining at best. Suit was great.

  14. Has a tq converted trans. I agree it's probably done for. But basic trouble shooting is a good idea. North End Wrench (Crossle on here) might be a place to start.
  15. Gotta love the conflict resolution tactics used by modern society.
  16. The Golf R is a great car, and the MK7 can be tuned into the 11s with simple bolt ons (intake, tune, downpipe and DSG software). They handle on par with an STI, with a bit more tendency to understeer at the limit because haldex AWD. For the majority of people wanting a sporty car, they'd be absolutely SHOCKED at how fast a Golf R can be on back roads if they actually drove one. And if you mod the DSG ones, you can get well into the 11s if you wanted. Great do it all car. If I had enough money for a 40k daily, I'd have a MK7 R. The same, just aluminum. Assuming you're referencing the rear subframes. The TT has better suspension geometry, not subframe related. It's all in the LCA and Knuckle design due to wider front end of the TT allowing for more camber (adjustable) aluminum arms and knuckle vs steel, and a knuckle that has a much better design for proper geometry.
  17. The 1.8T and 2.0T in the A3 are shared with VW in their models (most of them). GTI for the 2.0T, Jetta/Golf/Passat for the 1.8T among others. The Jetta Sportwagen can be purchased with the 1.8T and AWD with DSG. NO 2.0T AWD DSG available from VW, except the Golf R, which is a 4 door hatch, and has a slightly different engine than the GTI (stronger internals, bigger turbo, etc). Golf R = S3.
  18. IMO, the sweet spot of the VWs are full bolt ons with a stock turbo, NOT a big turbo kit. As Taylor mentioned, they really move out under 100mph, or "around town." Once you start wanting a 2 liter to do too much, such as make 500+hp, you'll end up with a laggy big power car that is somewhat boring to drive daily. Intake, tune, downpipe is all I'd do to these cars engine wise. Brakes and suspension too, and you'll have a car that's a blast on back roads.
  19. :lolguy: The irony is too thick to even move. I'm stuck. Crazy.
  20. The AWD are 2.0T and DSG (dual clutch) not a tq converted auto.
  21. Apr for programming engine and dsg. Tc kline will handle it, kale on here works there. Their exhaust and intake parts way over priced. Look elsewhere for those. Let's hope it's an awd 2.0t.
