I still want a Russian roof/window spoiler.

ssjoeboe9

me too

Harper

Have there been any us based company's that reproduced it for cheap? Or cheap knockoffs on eBay?

opboarding

Did we ever figure out how much it would cost per spoiler shipped?

all my exled posted in black market



and for the spoiler if you can get 10 commited I know a carbon fiber guy will make it to your specs. but 10 with cash up front win or lose after design is approved.
tell me that 10 can usually cover the design and mold cost. of course not everything meets that/

musty hustla

Yes. He was quite decrepit; I suppose it is to be expected.

cu2wagon

Yeah, I bet. Dude must be pushing up on 90 by now. Mad balla back in the 60's though... Capitalizing on those science groupies like, "yo, I got your sequence already girl, so why don't you just gimme your number..."

ssjoeboe9

I bought eyelids from that russian website, I think they go for like $30 USD when you convert, and I paid $90 total to get them shipped here.So basically I paid like $60 in shipping/duty/foreign transaction whatever you wanna call it.

I would commit to buy one up front, but I know the cost to make one of those and how much CF and resin cost too. It would easily be $200 a spoiler which means no one would buy it haha

Harper

Mr killerg bought one, said it was less than $200 shipped but was bent during shipping. I believe atstuning.ru is where he purchased from, site isn't loading for me.

Edit: http://www.ats-tuning.ru/catalog/198/?SHOWALL_1=1
doesn't look like they have it listed.

iCrap

lol dat wing...

2011 135i for 19.4K...tempting.

Was driving my TSX pretty hard today because I was running late. Something odd happened. I kind of gased it a bit and then took my foot of the accelerator and the car was stuck in 3-4k rpm's for 2-3 seconds and then changed gears. It's never done that before, I was thinking I might need a ATF flush?

urbanstereo

i experience that sometimes

Harper

Happens sometimes to me too

Harper

Found it:

Roof spoiler yo

MC MiYoung3269

I always drive with VSA off
Maybe it's just me, but I can't stand it... It makes driving so unpredictable... Tire pressure dropped low enough to trigger the warning the other day and I couldn't turn it off, worst drive to school ever lol Everything felt so sluggish

opboarding

Looks like it's $85 converted to USD. I will assume this will be a few dollars more to ship since its a much bigger box. Probably around $150 shipped which isn't terrible.

ssjoeboe9

^^ bro I told you my eyelids were like $60 to ship (8"x4"x3" box). I think itll be a lot more than $150 for the roof spoiler

rawger

Probably just our icraptastic 5 gears. Either one of you had ATF flushed? Or if anyone know where I can purchase it for cheap, gonna have it changed.

Wait, so you don't like driving with it off and still do? Why? I really don't mess with it, but the day before I had it off and was driving around. Then the next morning the roads were a little wet and I didn't think it would make that big of a difference, but I was wrong. Had I been making a turn while having to slow down I probably would have spin out of control. I guess it's also because I have the poopy OEM's with not much grip left.

rawger

At least it's a V6.

rawger

askvg, do you know if it's possible to get rid of some burn-in on a S3?

iCrap

Get the ATF from the dealer and do it yourself. It was really cheap and it's not that hard.

and the OEM tires suck some ass lol, get some better ones.

rawger

Is it DW-1 for our cars? And alright I'll look into it.

Lol, yeah I gave it a shot already, I can't tell if it really did anything.

xtcnrice

don't think it's related to ATF flush. I've experienced this before, I have 15k KMs.

When you push the car hard in D (lul), it'll tend to stay in the lower gears for a little bit before it decides to gear up, thinking you might continue to hoon it. Kinda like being in S mode temporarily. I think it's just the ECU being like, "you done hooning yet fool? naw? aight."

iCrap

I think DW-1 is the correct one, but the guy at the service couter will give you the right one anyways.

You gotta let it go for like several hours. you can try running a stuck pixel fixer also (flashes colors over and over)

Lol I always push the D in hard.

rawger

Alright, well I guess it's normal then. I probably still do the flush since I'm at 46k (74km for the Canadian folk).

Harper

Just noticed it has both decklid and fast and furious wing.

xtcnrice

He don't like the VSA on because it'll drop your RPMs unexpectedly. It's exactly what the VSA should do to prevent you from sliding and slipping, but if you can control this naturally yourself, then VSA becomes a nuissance.

rawger

That's what she said.

I gave it like two hours, I'm impatient. I'm selling it so it's fine if it can't be fixed, I already mentioned it in the posting.

Harper

Killerg said it was less than $200 shipped.


Rawger what phone you getting next?

iCrap

VSA helps in the corners. I have gotten it to spin the inside wheel at 60mph with VSA off causing catastrophic understeer while cornering, vsa helps with that.

Harper

xtcnrice

So you're saying our VSA acts as an LSD or torque vectoring device too? I didn't think it was possible for our TSX to choose which wheels to spin more than the other.

I'm thinking the VSA throttled both inside and outside wheels, not just one.

rawger

I bought a iPhone 5 off someone for $100 and I've been using that. Then I got this S3 unlocked off someone for $50 and I'm gonna flip it on eBay like a boss.

If I can find an 5s, I may just get that.

EDIT: I was going to buy the OnePlus One, but looks like you either have a good or bad experience and I didn't want to end up with a bad one. So I just planned on waiting for the OnePlus Two for now. If not I would get a Nexus 6, Z3 or something, but don't want to spend 500-600 on a phone.

It brakes the spinning wheel as far as i can tell.

Harper

If you want a super cheap but surprisingly decent phone the LG Optimus L90 is not a bad choice. I bought one as a backup phone for $54 including taxes.

rawger

I do like iMessage a lot. Read an article saying that was the turning point for a guy who had been using Android for the longest time. All his friends were using iPhones and obviously he couldn't be in the group chat. iPhone OS is also clean and simple, but I do feel like a conformist using one now, lol. Basically it's fast and does the job well so I'm alright with it. I'm definitely less of a hater on iPhones after using it.
