I attempted similar stuff on my IS300 but if the input doesn’t match what the ECU expects it freaks out. You say you don’t like the DBW in the Twins, you should see how bad it is in the IS300 or the...

Printing the recall instructions is even better. The original manual is a lot less detailed on the packing seal application. The recall instructions are dummy proof.

I felt this car blipped inconsistently until I switched to E85. Before E85 it would randomly give me the middle finger when doing a quick stab.

When finding my seat position in any car I rotate my foot like I’m heel toeing and then move the seat back until my knee isn’t on the wheel and gives my hands enough room to turn the wheel. You...

I was trying to find other footage of this incident and found another Miata just casually looping another car off track. It does seem there isn’t much concern for punting.

You know what makes it look so good in that render is that that Porsche Panamera wheel well arch is extended into the door a little rather than abruptly ending at the door like it does in reality.

I wouldn’t bother. Even if it’s a tinny fraction of people that have failures I don’t think it’s worth the risk. When you go to sell it you can tell people it doesn’t have the recall and then they...

Did the new rack include the EPS unit? If so, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was only the coupler that was bad.

When they replaced the column did they also replace the EPS? If so then it was probably just the rubber coupler that was bad. It’s crazy they are doing such an expensive repair to replace a $5 rubber...
