    Honey, I know you wanted a 911, but I found you a Corolla instead!

    BigEURO MK8 GTI, done?

    The trick is to not lower the suspension so much that the LCA are parallel or at a negative angle. That’s generally only about 3/4” - 1.0” from stock on an R.

    Yeah, but up until last season, it had been nearly perfect. Nothing wrong with Ted, but FAM is more impressive to my peepers. Shrinking has also been excellent, same crew as Ted and seems like it may have taken some of their focus off of the older show. Apple TV is one of the better deals for...

    And For All Mankind is 832.16x better than Ted.

    Movie and TV Recommendations

    Thought the first two were good, casting seems really good, Tim Robbins as the IT wonk is perfect. Hugh Howey's blog seems to reflect that he's really happy with how the first season went, so I'm hoping it comes along well and gets picked up for all three seasons. Would suck to have it die...

    6-speed GTI Stage 1 experiences?

    I've got to move my dad out of Cochiti Lake down to your area soon. If I can free up a little time, I'd help you with it, it's not that hard if you have jack stands and a jack and somewhere clean to move your front bumper for a few hours. I could even throw jacks and jack stands in my car on...

    Beautifully sounding Subaru

    It would be hell to get it into a sideways motored Elise or MR2, but a Box/Cay would be fun. Looks like the Alfa 4C was transverse too. But you could fix an 8C with this.

    6-speed GTI Stage 1 experiences?

    Do an intercooler. Anything is better than stock. You can find stock location ones for around $600, even the do88 is "only" $826. Seeing you're in NM reminds of a funny turbo charged story, years ago, a friend of mine had a B5 S4 Avant (he still has it) when I had my M Coupe. It wasn't a...

    6-speed GTI Stage 1 experiences?

    The stock clutch can survive, for a while, if you don't do hard starts or rev from low rpm in high gears. I'm still waiting for Cobb to get the AP Tuner working on the Mk8 so I can use EQT, or for APR to get their at home option working. But plenty of folks have had good results with APR and...

    Heavy tailgate?

    I changed from a Mk7.5 GTI to a Mk8 R and the difference in the weight of the wing on the R makes it nearly close itself. The first few times I closed it, I accidentally slammed it.

    Trying to see if there's interest in MK8 Euro rear headrests?

    I’d happily pay E Acca prices if I didn’t have to wait E Acca times.

    Yeah, mine corrected back to the right time zone too.

    Time zone changin

    Sounds like a lot of Mk8s are doing this. Mine said it was changing to MST but still displays CST. I only recently changed from manual to being tied to my phone clock, but it sounds like its effecting either setting. EU clocks just changed, so it sounds like it's related to that, they just...

    MK8 Golf R Infotainment features have never worked since new

    Have you toggled between manual and tied to your phone?

    Yeah, the mountain biking is great around Durango. We took both bikes last year. May spend some time up there this summer.

    Trailer hitch?

    Are you sure? Ultimately it doesn't matter as that style of hitch is useless for my needs.

    Trailer hitch?

    It's still going to require a cutout in the diffuser. Same was true of all of the hitches for the Mk7 R.

    Trailer hitch?

    On the R? Got pics? We're talking about the one that looks like an elephant phallus? Unfortunately, that design doesn't work for me and it looks like there isn't an option to use a 2.0" or 1.25" receiver.

    Funny, I have a fifteen year old ti road bike with rim brakes. I did the Iron Horse last year from Durango to Silverton and the descent into Silverton really caused me to consider discs. I figure if I'm going to to make a change, I might as well get a gravel bike. Looking at the Revel Rover...
