I want straight for a mhi 20g I was trying to avoid the inevitable upgrade after getting a 16g. I was initially disappointed by the "slower spool", but the top end was the tatas. Then I went FP red (hta76). Again, the spool delay was a small shock, but that top end!! Then I went over to a...
Im over the magic 25 years insurance dip. I still split the bill with my family, but according to Geico, my laser is ~$260/half year of the total bill. Maybe its the 2g Fast and Furious tax?
To him. How many of "him" are out there buying these things. If anything, the DSM market is dying off. It is dying off with the vendors that produce quality parts for us. I guess as long as china puts cheap copies on ebay, someone might pay for the short term thrill.I am mad enough that...
a) Totally agree. Rarely do people actually use it to barter.
b) Totally not true. If you want a deal, that's how its done. Only noobs bid things up so they can pay more.And people who cant write a damn sentence.
how long was the evaporust originally on? I usually leave it on over night. I sand/wire wheel the rust as far back as possible, then I use evaporust or similar. Then I let it sit over night. Then I wire wheel the evapo rust stuff off. then use acetone. Soapy water is not good enough imo.
Anyone have access to one for the 4.6 liter gas engine? My brothers f150 has a bad injector circuit and it is not throwing a code. Injector fires once every few seconds. Put a spare and verified that it is not a problem with an injector itself. Either the PCM is bad or the wire is bad. I...
Post your prices on the "myGasBuddy" app. Hopefully you beat local competitors. People DO use that app. What "brand" station are you? I myself personally try to stay away from anything except shell and sunocco. You would have to go to a significant effort to convince me as an arrogant...
I hope you are patient. That is the number one strategy for buying these things. Unless you are capable of doing a complete tear-down and rebuild (painting the frame etc...). They are fun no doubt, and upgrades are cheaper than the newer evo upgrades.
There are very few cars I would rather DD... FP red whistling/spooling everywhere, 35psi dumped after WOT, Sweet smell of E85 exhaust... I often find myself turning down/off the radio, even when my favorite songs are on.
Compelling as your argument may be, you lost me at (the first of many):Which is unfortunate because I was ready to crack my own "simple-cop" jokes sympathizing with the position that you and the OP share. Unfortunately when I go to call the kettle black, I will be siding with a pot. :D
Glad to hear you caught them before anything happened. I was not so fortunate. But I have made efforts to increase my odds in stopping a thief dead in his tracks.Probably 1 mile is a straight line on a clear day with no interference lol. How far have you tested that to? I have always had...
It literally prints it a thin layer at a time (google 3D printer), a milling machine machine produces much better results, but takes a lot more effort. I was able to get my community college to print anything I wanted for free as long as I designed it could be uploaded as is ready to print...
I have a friend of a friend who wants me to install his (sub+amp+power wire)/(radio+adapter+dash kit)/(door speakers)x2 in a 2000 monte carlo. I looked at a few youtube videos to decide that it wont be too annoying.I have done many cars before by they were also good friends that I did not...
what you should do with that file is send it to an engineering program to do some aero calculation for the drag coefficient of our cars =] So we can reinvent the HP calculator.
I only made it to java in intro HTML so my input is probably useless. If x^4 + 1 array looks like [1,0,0,0,1] as in you do all coefficients even if they are zero then I think you may have it easy. Isn't there a function expressly for that purpose?array.getLength(***name of array here***)...
16g on a stock tune, probably not much more than the factory car. Why do you even care about such a number anyway? Its just a number. If you wanna brag to your friends just say you have 500hp @ 50psi and be done with it. Or pony up $70 to $100 and get on a dyno. Do choose a dynojet and not a...
Lesson(s) learned:
1) If hit and run and in your car, and it drives, chase that mofo down (I am guessing this was a parked hit and run though).
2) Call police? yes ASAP. Call Insurance? Ummm hold off on that. ONLY call insurance devils if you need a lifeline. They will profit off of your...
Swapped rubber/nylon braid fuel lines for SS/Teflon fuel lines with heat-shrink cloth sleeve. Installed a leak proof sight gauge on custom coolant overflow. Re-wrote code for the cell phone alarm thingy and installed it in the car.
In car demo. The phone I was using to record had no more memory so I only got the lock/unlock part. Clearly everything else will work, its just relays... Also I rushed, I should have waited for the confirmation before sending the next command but whatever... The confirmation came up anyway.
Lock/unlock is more of a backup feature for me. The alarm is key so I can actually do something if my car is getting broken into. I live in an area that always has service. Viper key fobs aren't lout enough on the alarm 2 way. I will sleep through it. I have an app on my phone where if...
VIDEO DEMO:I would rather this link not be re-posted elsewhere due to the nature of the content. Its not all that revealing, but it is a security system after all.This is what I am trying to mimic for less $$$ and more functionality...
lol whats legal? Theiving? whooping ass? stand your ground? calling cops? OOOHHHH, Reefer madness is legal. Washington is seeming like more and more of a bad ass place to live. Awesome food scene, legalization (not that I really have time for that)Hows the cost of living vs quality...
If you have any hard proof go and whoop his ass. If you have receipts or serial numbers, call the cops. Either way you win... Don't want him and his buddies thinking you are sweet.
Yup they took the stereo. Its an JVC KW AVX 840 in case any of you guys run into it (doubtful). I have been stalking ebaw and Clist, but I think its gonna end up at a pawn shop. I wish I took the serial number when I had it. I will in the future. Its not even worth that f***ing much...
Whoever it is, obviously didn't know what else was in the car. Skipped right over a pair of Gucci shades, and some other goodies. Its this type of shit that makes me want to stay up all night and get some target practice with the good ole Saiga 12. Don't even care if I hit the car, as long as...
I stopped checking this when I got the reply from Phil. Thanks for the effort. It worked just perfectly (after I figured out that I cannot type worth a crap on my mini keyboard after not using it for a month). I originally thought of using a linux emulator (environment whatever) but I felt...
I need you to download the latest version of ECMlink and then update it to the latest version which supports ethanol. It will install into a folder called ecmlink. Copy the folder and its contents and then email it to me. This has to be done on a Linux based pc. I need this for my raspberry...
I have a quick one...I have a court date scheduled today (minor traffic violation), but ALL Maryland district courts are closed due to poor weather conditions.I tried calling my district and the phone has an automated message saying they are closed and rings endlessly beyond that.I...
I used to own an 85 Auto. The sounds and torque that thing made were fun as hell, but I wasn't ready for (installing) go fast mods on it. Overall I must admit, 1g dsm>c4 vette. They really are not all that powerful and the vette chokes hard up top.
X2 Dont buy that mig welder. Its a POS. It makes terrible welds, and is a PITA to use. Welds are very sloppy and inaccurate. Sure it "works" fine. But I wouldn't weld anything with it that absolutely has to be reliable.Its fine for post-O2 housing exhaust making. It will be very...
I have a friend who turbo'ed a miata and he's jealous of the dsmLink GUI.Anyone familiar with running dsmlink on a miata or any 'other' engine?what can he do about the CAS, knock sensor, injectors, etc...He is currently 'running' megasquirt and frankly has no idea what is going on and...
I have an endless supply of old clothes that I will never wear in public again.Instead of donating them or trashing them, I wear them when I work on cars. I launder them separately from my 'good' clothes.I wear layers. If I am working from the top of my car then shorts and short...
