yeah i had a meeting with the bobs today and they said they like to lay people off on fridays to make things easier and avoid conflict. They also fired Samir and Michael and are giving me more money.

If anyone is interested in a carbon fiber APR rear diffuser for an 8/9, let me know. A freind in Carlisle is selling one off his racecar, and I can pick it up for you since I'll be working out there the next few weeks. PM me for price, as this is not a f/s thread!

Does anyone need a Tactrix cable 1.3?

I bought it while back, and then misplaced it. I bought another one after I couldn't find it. I just found the original cable, so I now have two of them. I'm sure that I could sell in within a few hours, but I thought that I would see if any of you guys want it before I make it available to everyone.

To conform with forum rules, I did make an official F/S thread.

Such a handy tool. I passed it onto one of my friends who was thinking about buying the 2.0

anyone know which is better the 2.0 or the 1.3? I know with the 2.0 you can log indepent of any CPU by using a microSD card, which is really cool for drive on track. I have the 1.3 and for some reason though I remember reading that its more 'user friendly' and will log faster than the 2.0, or something like that... but I could be way off on that last part.

I hope Pete wasn't killing time before his flight departed.

From what I know, the only reason to get the 2.0 is if you have an eX, otherwise, the 1.3 is perfect as it is.

Don't care for the shape as it's not something I want to see after the Italia.
But, that 4RM sounds interesting. 50% weight savings versus convention AWD setups? How's that everything's some carbo-titanium wonder alloy?

I don't care what it looks like, Pagani ****s gold.

so I am having this debate with a friend of mine on different oils. hoping some of you guys can share some insight into the differences in oil.

friend said that all M1, royal purple, penn etc are technically synthetic blends. They are sometime marketed as blends and other times as full synthetic but are essentially the same thing.

I had always thought that full synthetics are better than any blends for obvious reasons. my main concern is my dad using Eneos 5w30 where on the bottle it says synthetic blend. Does anyone know anything about Eneos blends vs other claimed full synthetics like mobile 1 and amsoil?

what is everyone else running as far as motor oil? I have always used some variation of M1 depending on conditions with a OEM filter. what are you guys running? Thoughts on Eneos synthetic blends?

i've been running regular petroleum based autozone brand oil. mainly because it's a lot less expensive. no problems so far.

sorry man, all that oil stuff is lost on me. I just follow what people like Ted B. say and use oils that are classified as SL only and not SM/SL. LIke Mobil1 High Mileage 5w-30, which is what I've got in my car right now.

I have over half a dozen blackstone lab oil analysis done on various oils from RP to Redline to Mobil to AMSOil to Motul and all of them came back as being fine for what I do with my car. IMO, there probably isn't a bad oil out there. you just have to use the correct weight for your application and change it often.
