Out of curiosity...
Is anyone here interested in my K04, FMIC, APR TIP, and a few other things? I'm not sure that I'm selling the stuff yet but am starting to consider maybe getting rid of the power parts and jsut going to like Stage 1+ or something. Besides, it don't have the roads around here to give it justice. Just a feeler, I will decide after I see if there is any interest. TIA

I know, but my current rationale is that while it is nice...
if somehting else goes wrong and they find this I am fvcked. Besides, like everyone keeps saying, eventually my tip trans is going to go. SO i figure I should get out now before anything breaks again. I love it, and would do it again, but only if I had a manual. Plus, I don't have the money to make the tip accomidate the power.

There's always a chance that a TIP tranny will blow even on stock software.
If you go back to stage 1+, you're already over the limit for the tip tranny.
Hell, even manual transmissions experience problems every now and then. Unfortunately it's all part of the game.
The way I look at it is that our cars aren't the most reliable even in their stock form so we might as well have some fun and mod. Either way I'm not expecting Toyota reliability.

But if it blows on stock software it will be a warranty item.
if not then i ahve to pay for it..I ahve to think it over. Stage 1+ seems like it would be a tad safer.

That fact applies to manual transmissions also. Actually, anything mechanical/electrical.
Generally, if a component or assembly survives the first few hundred hours operation, then statistically, it can be considered reliable. Most failures from defects occur soon after the device enters service as new or rebuilt.
