There you go. If he put speed bleeders on them, those have a thread sealant on them that wears out after a few uses as well.
You can get M10x1.0 bleeders for Brembo brakes for fairly cheap. Even the GM OE part is like $10.50 a pair on RockAuto, including new dust caps even. Nissan charges like $150 a pair for the GTR For the same thing
Tried to order a new center console today. All the used ones on eBay are over priced or beat to shit.
I emailed the online dealer yesterday, before I put in the order, and asked what the ETA was. They said it was available at the warehouse.
Today I actually placed it. Now it's on backorder, with no ETA.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Tentatively have a piece coming from a parted out 2019 Z06. It's not flawless, but it's good enough, and it's slightly cheaper than a brand new one would have been.

The ones on eBay are out of wrecked cars. So they're dirty and scraped up. The really nice ones are over $300.
Mine has the terrible hydrocarbon finish, a big splotch missing from the finish on the cupholder door, and the chrome on the parking brake button is peeling off.
The one I just got was $200 shipped. He originally wanted to sell the entire console assembly with the frame, storage cubby, a black arm rest, and an auto shift knob. I don't need any of that, and he was willing to split it up and lower the price.

Mine was pretty solid for the time I had it. Had one bad spark plug early on covered under warranty, and had to do the transmission fluid flush for the A8 shuddering issue. No interior problems at all, no exterior issues. Got good money for it when I traded up.

Yeah generally I feel like most new cars are decent for quality these days. Seems like there are always nit picky issues.
It's probably a good thing for my bank account that nobody makes an intake like this for my car. This is painfully nice. Peak gains of 40hp and near drastically improved throttle response on a C6Z. €5,400.00

Yep. It's based around a Harrop Hurricane ITB system.
Found this regarding the MAF.
It can run on either speed density or MAF with HP Tuners for instance. We have it set up to work on either. The MAF actually sits in the filter box ahead of the silicon coupler on the passenger side on the outside. You can somewhat see it sticking out on one of the images.
I think you can see the wire going into the airbox, right near the black and yellow label on the inner fender.

That's an option on the older engines. I'm not sure if SD is even possible on the direct injection engines.

I haven't looked at HP Tuners in a while, but when I was thinking of doing E85 I was following C7 tuning on there. I'm reasonably sure that they had a SD patch for the C7, and I think the LT4 uses SD when in boost natively.
Still waiting for C8 to be cracked, but that doesn't seem likely. Supposedly some shop was able to do it for just the engine ECU, but more likely they are full of shit.
The alleged Trifecta hack? I was following that pretty intently. They've provided precisely zero useful info though.
I don't think the C8 or any of the other new platform cars are going to be cracked. There's too much cryptographic authentication between multiple other modules in the car.
