Na they're good for some people, android are good for some people.

High end models android models are about the same price as entry model iphones, and are just as usable as iphones.

Specs aren't everything, so although iphone specs are a bit behind the 8ball due to their release cycle, the apps are designed for the specific specs... so the User Experience is the same. If you've got a low end android then you're going to have a bad time...

8 MegaPixel vs 16 MegaPixel.. who gives a crap... They both take great looking photos and handle low light really well. If you wanted a pro camera, you'd buy one, instead you're using a phone which is more than capable.

The Samsung S5 has a slightly sharper picture, the iPhone 5S has a slightly more accurate colour capture. Does anyone notice? No...

Personally, I'm an android guy, 100%... but the iPhone is still the best phone for some people, definately not for me though.

again. who?!

people who own iphones.

having swapped from an 5s to an s5, i wont be going back.

Reviewers for one. Most prefer the shots from the 5S. I use to work as a systems administrator and I currently do mobile app development, so I've worked with my fair share of phones from the different platforms.

Both iOS and Android are good platforms, I just can't stand the people who dismiss one or the other, it makes them look stupid and 99% of the time they have no idea what they are talking about.

This is true. The iPhone 5S processor is faster than the S5 though, even though on paper the specifications are lower.

Drip drip drip I wanna piss on youuu

sony z1/z2. waterproof yo.

Oh?

I know they're waterproof but are they beer-proof?

And do they take micro sim?

About rinsing, it could be a issue... Especially where I'm heading.

there another with a bunch of older alfa and such, avoid at all cost.

autoban I just hired a 3 series from avis did 220 no worries

Was looking at these sites just then, now to decide what car to use.

Should look around for lap tickets pricing. And decide what package should I go for.

Thanks Martin.

Also, whats the place where you go on a factory tour in Italy and you get to drive supercars or something?

Muchos Gracias Martin.

Gotta include Nurburgring, Oktoberfest, some of Italy, Greece, the sphincter of the universe and Russia, do wonder if I could fit Hungary and possibly someplace into the trip.

Off to do some planning.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
