I don't think they've ever really tried to support the forum embedding use case with gPhotos. Too bad.

I found a Google help topic that gave instructions... Just don't work very reliably I guess

So I just recently found this out... Apparently Alfa raised the 2018s by 3/4" due to complaints in Europe over scraping and at some point lowered them again in 2019 over complaints in the US they were too high

Still not sure how I feel about lowering my 2018.  I still have mixed opinions on the RX8 after lowering and then having to be careful everywhere I took it.  Too much stress for my older age.

NE roads are shit and I am on a coilover sabbatical so I can't blame you

Plus Giulias look lower and better in person than pictures

Sabbatical, eh? I'm sure there are some options for your fancy Honda.

Well... It finally happened after almost 3 year - check engine light

Looks like the culprit is an overly complicated variable pitch oil pump

I just got a CEL on my 159 as well. I was afraid it was the dreaded chain stretch (it's the GM high feature V6), but turned out to be a faulty oil pressure sensoer.
