That’s actually kind of mind blowing. I had no clue they were that rare

Yeah, most don't realize that. Only downside to the 95 & 96 R/T TT cars is they removed a few of the features that were nice to have. Things like digital climate control and all wheel steering (although, most aren't a fan of this). Here is the full breakdown of production numbers if you want to nerd out on them (95 Stealth TT numbers are a bit unknown; I don't know what database these were pulled from but the few 95s out there do exist as I have seen some):

Working on a new hurricane engine that's burning oil. It's not fun to work on. Have to take the high pressure fuel line off and it's more work than the valve cover is but it needs to come off to get the valve cover off.

Why the hell are they spending so much money at their workplace?

If I worked at Honda it might be similar though.

ISP sent me a new modem/router. I assume my old one wasn't meant for gigabit. I'm surprised they don't just give you the same one for the slower speeds.

at least you should get proper speeds with the new modem/router

Yeah had a feeling the old modem/router (gateway) couldn't handle the gig speeds.

I'd love to know why my speed has gone down since switching though. Ill just take it to my new house and have it installed there. Unfortunately the soonest I could get an appointment was the 26th. Plan on fully living in the new place this weekend.

I'd prob be up there to if I had 25 years of so being at a dealer.

Just think for Ford.....average $60k trucks(which can be on the cheap side ) times 5 vehicles(swap every 5 years)....that's $300k right there. I would def be swapping earlier than 5 years, lol.

So you switched from 250Mbps to 1Gbps and the speeds only went up to around 400Mbps right?
Have you power cycled the router/modem (gateway) since getting the upgrade to 1Gbps?

@AlmosN8kd - I found this guy randomly on YouTube where he took his R8 10k miles to Alaska's Arctic.

Well his video of his 3000GT VR4 that the mechanic supposedly took just popped up in my feed.

Early 1st gen cranks were cast, so not surprised the original was broke in half. Sometime in mid-92, they changed over to forged cranks.

I know the shop he's referring to. I also know the owner of the car that has been there for 6yrs (in fact, he's the one I got the super banana from). The shop owner has a history on the forums, not all of it good and a reputation for taking a long time to do work. When left to his own time-scale, he's great; when rushed . . . well, you've seen what happens. I've never done business with him (except for buying a part or two that was readily available) and he's not the one I'd refer to as the leading expert on the 3/S platform but that is what his shop specializes in (he definitely knows the cars well, I think he's been in the 3/S world a bit longer than me). It's a damn shame that this happened.
