My Awards

  1. My '98 Prelude with the H22A was such a great car, except you had to near redline to have any usable power. I do miss it at times.. The VQ37VHR in my G37 is also high rpm power (redline is at 7500 w/ peak 330hp at 7000, peak torque of 276ftlbs around 5200) but the torque curve is fairly decent so it's much more usable day to day. That said, I need new rear tires.. have a chunk/flat spot on the General G-MAX AS-05's already... Which is funny because when I bought these over the prior AS-05's I had I could tell right away they changed the tire or maybe I just got a bad batch. They now discontinued the AS-05's and are offering the AS-07's but I think and from what I've read spending the extra $20 per tire and getting some Continental Extreme Contact DWS-06 Plus' is probably worth it. Being I live in FL I should just go with summer tires but I already spend enough on replacements as is with this boat of a car.
  2. Will remember to actually fire up the 6900XT next time, ah well.
  3. To be fair to them, it never broke initially and they did last a good 6 months or so on average. Some are still fine after near a year. Perhaps when I put the orings on I damaged them but unless the plastic had hairline cracks in it I missed I just don't see how. Either way, link to them is below if you wanted to avoid it. Brand was "Max Keyboard" 503 - Service Unavailable Error WWW.AMAZON.COM
  4. Thanks, these are the style I'm looking for. All my prior ones from different brands seem to break the plastic on the part that goes onto the switch itself (a corner of it will chip off for example and then the key cap wobbles/falls off easily).

  5. I just realized I've had my first mechanical keyboard since 2019... Don't laugh but it's been rock solid and I don't treat my boards nicely. Redragon K551 MITRA - Full size, RED LED only (no rgb) - Outemu Blue switches, changed some keycaps over the years and did the o-ring mod on the keys to quiet it slightly. Finally retired it and picked up a Redragon K556 RGB which is basically a much heavier duty version (completely metal) of it with Outemu Brown switches instead. Also no lip around the board so the switches are exposed and much easier to clean. Yea, I know I'm the poor man's entry but after gaming on membrane boards these feel like luxury. The brown switches are much nicer than the blues, and I've yet to find a red switch that I like. Also picked up a Magee 96% size keyboard for the GF to finally replace her MS membrane board. Red switches but they are perfect for her use for typing / school work. Ironically the RED switches they use feel heavy for reds but are just right as they are not overly sensitive. Side note, big fan of changing some keys to translucent / smoked but the problem I've found is they never seem to last. Can anybody recommend a remotely budget friendly but reliable brand? Realistically only replacing the WASD and Arrows. Thanks.
  6. I used to be a wired mouse snob until I bought a 'cheap' Logitech G305 for $30. I've bought multiple since as they seem to fit whatever the hell my grip would be called (changes depending on game). Use these for my main pc's and my laptop. That said, I've also got multiple M510's as they are a great basic wireless mouse that gets the job done. Not gonna lie, I do miss my wired G400 at times but the G305 is a better mouse overall. These are still in use in my HTPC and GF's desktop. I'm not one to stick to brand's but logitech mice have really been reliable for me overall.
  7. Looks great - I still need to replace my cat converters as they sound like marble being shaken in a tin can.
  8. Look look, I know I beat him by less than 200 points but you don't have to do bogmali like this... Anyways, I'll take my crown for 7 figure King whenever you are handing it out.
  9. How much weight saved going with those seats? Still tempted to replace the driver seat only in my G37 with one as the "non-sport" edition seats I have in mine have me relying on the steering wheel and door (with my knee) for stability during remotely fast turns. Really not wanting to give up too much cruising comfort though.
  10. Fianlly got around to properly fixing my sunroof leak (rerouted the drain tubes to the AC drain line). It was a real PITA but this is an actual permanent fix vs just replacing the crappy plastic end tube that goes into the firewall (which will fail in time as it's a horrible factory design Nissan never fixed). It's been raining since last night and won't stop till Monday so if it's completely leak free I'll button it up. As much as I enjoy the race car look of tons of missing interior panels and exposed floor pans I need to get it back to looking normal.
  11. All good, was just busting balls with that post. Thanks for the explanation either way.
  12. Alright people, less power limiting to save a buck next time, this was too close;
