Last night, was in an empty parking lot in torrential rain and powerslid it twice. I guess the AWD is still working :tup: I need to reseal the angle gear coming up in the next few months.

Late to work this morning, drove in excess of 30mph to make it on time. I'm really starting to love driving it again after the suspension work, plugs, and wastegate adjustment.

This tune is fun :D

I know jack about the P2R's, but what makes the AWD kick the bucket? I thought powersliding it and messing around in snow and whatnot is what killed it?

The splines in the collar that transfers power from the tranny to the angle gear are very soft metal and get excess wear, causing loss of AWD

Inspection and emmisons done ugh $80 with tax

Stickers in pa are now $5 wtf

They tightened the hump union where the cat and cat back connect for me too as It started leaking and I haven't had time... The remus exhaust is nice now without the leak but I still get a squeal alongside the woooooooooo that the exhaust makes... Stumped

Where in obx? Have we talked about this before lol?

We got evacuated from Avon this year from the hurricane in early July :(

Kitty Hawk, right when you go over the bridge.

We left here at 5am, got down there at 11am (traffic) and then left the next day at 6am and got home at 11am.

That's one area MD has over PA

1 safety inspection after purchase $60, emissions every 2 years for $16....or no emissions for diesels. :tup:

When I was living in Saint Mary's County, that was money.... no emissions required!

CA has no inspections and Smog every 2 years.

But AZ is way more lax about Smog.

They don't mind if people breathe in all that pollution. I remember living there and being able to see the layer of smog lingering in the valley.

yeah but CA's smog is wayyyy more stringent than all other states' smog.
