  1. Changing the diverter valve (or bypass valve, or recirculation valve) is a good thing. The older ones were crappy diaphragm type valves that were pretty junky. You may even get more powerz yo! Double power bonus if it's chrome or has an R on it.
  2. Well I remember them having major issues with oil temps on the early autos I believe? Guy in my old neighborhood bought a 535 brand new and had serious motor problems. Then they went to a bigger single turbo which was supposed to help, right? It's kinda looking like the B8 might not have retarded issues, but we'll see. At least there haven't been problems with turbo failure, suspension wear, timing chain replacement, DI carbon, or fuel-pump cam failure yet.
  3. Yeah, I'd have to drive a real actual MANUAL S4 too:gabe:. But at least the autos have a nice dead pedal for you to rest your bored left foot on. I'd be a little concerned about the turbo issues on the earlier biturbo BMWs, might want to look into that if you serious abotu a 335/535.
  4. I'd be all over an S4 against those competitors. I wouldn't even put an S4 in the same class as a TL or 5-series honestly, it's just that much better.
  5. Let's hope so. Why do companies even bother with small engines again? BRB swapping in junkyard ls12 to double fuel economy and triple power.
  6. BTDT. Alaska is absolutely beautiful, I've been to most of the major cities at one time or another. FYI, I went on an Alaskan cruise on June, and the weather was very rough for one day. Everyone got seasick (except me) at one point, although there was never any danger. Many of the parts of the boat were closed (casino, pool, etc.) on my trip so check on that if it's important to you. Many of the guests are older, so expect to have much of the place to yourself late at night.
  7. There are a few Giant Eagle stations with diesel. I can't remember which ones have it off the top of my head, I don't use very much diesel fuel.
  8. Looks like it. i've heard a couple places so far. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/poop-tattoo-story-is-crap-8764319
  9. What next? 35 MPG vettes with 450 horsepower?
  10. So was this was fake right? The whole story?
  11. Seriously? Well at least nobody got hurt. Since he's so into tats, he should have something fitting scribed across his forehead. Of course, it must have been a long gun because 18 year olds can't buy pistols or SBRs. By law. Right?
  12. I only bother with Giant Eagle if I'm doing something expensive like buying electronics from Best Buy, or if I know I have a bunch of crap to get at Lowe's or something. Definitely worth it, but ultimately you have to spend money to (kinda) save money so be careful with that mindset.
  13. Are you sure she didn't want that tatt-poo on her back? I mean, she did sign a release.
  14. Ouch. I can do a syntec/pureone oil-change for about $35 in 10 minutes. Ouch.
  15. Do you mean FFL license, or do the Future Farmers of America give licenses now?
  16. Good old friction always gets it done.
  17. As far as I know it's just to scuff or break any glaze or coating that might be on the surface of the pads. Any physical abrasions would be worn away quickly but I've never done it and never had any problems.
  18. Yep, repost. http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98150&highlight=smallest+v12
  19. What kind of price range are you looking in? $1k+, or <$1k?
  20. Park down the street from Federal buildings.
  21. I think it says TIMEBMB? He should have spent more money on preventative maintenance and less money on a vanity plate that pokes fun at his mechanical negligence (or his vehicle's engineering failing to make up for his ignorance).
  22. Roaddevils is a more old-skool Kustom kar klub type. They seem to use a lot of Ks in their descriptions, but strangely never three in a row.
  23. People just seal themselves in their tents? That's retarded. Someone should super-glue their zipper and watch them try to get out of there... while their tent goes up in flames, haha!

    MPG fun

    This may be, but you can also run many diesels on WVO, or various other things, if you're feeling creative. Fun for the tinkerer... If you've ever looked at used VW prices, you'd know it's moronic NOT to buy a diesel.
