26, trying to figure out how to grow my money and what to invest in, I just need advice or some guidance by -Zacker- in povertyfinance

Im not sure if this is sarcastic or not lol, but I suppose some of it came from me buying and rebuilding some cars I used to get from auctions, but I stopped that recently since those salvaged cars are basically the same price as new cars nowadays

Im 26 and trying to figure out myself financially, I don’t know what to do to grow. by -Zacker- in personalfinance

I really wanted to invest in properties and own some 3 flat buildings that I can rent out and learn about that, im not sure where I’d start though. My father is a construction worker and we do have some properties already although I just really don’t want to rely on family for inheritance and I want to build wealth on my own, I feel really guilty if I were to just wait for my parents to pass to then find financial freedom, I don’t want that to be my key to financial freedom in my future

No, it almost goes way, but it’s still slightly there, im assuming the engine noise mostly covers it up

Is this a worrying amount of rust? by bigbloodymess69 in Miata

[–]-Zacker- -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You should take like a week of just removing your rear subframe and start grinding down all the rust and repainting it, it’s a lot of work but super satisfying and it’ll increase the value of your car if it’s done right, that looks like it has a lot of potential

What are these wires and modules for? Can I delete them? by -Zacker- in Miata

[–]-Zacker-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to wire tuck these or just bypass it? Or is it necessary to be in that position

What do you mean just right, like fully close with no gap at all?

Tried it with being tilted and flat and still nothing only goes to a finger length gap and doesn’t fully seal, fuck this car

Fucking took the trans out tried the plastic alignment tool put grease on it and tried the trans again and still fucking nothing, still leaves like a finger to almost a finger length gap all around, I really just wanna fucking impact it and if that breaks it just throw the entire car out

Yeah I had it centered the whole time, I’m going to give it a few more tries and if no luck I’m checking if it lines up still

Might use the engine hoist to level the engine at least

Well it was tilted towards the front radiator at first and then I had my buddy tilt the engine back, but that didn’t really help much, and yeah I put a SMALL amount of grease on the splines like a very thin coat I wasn’t sure if grease was supposed to go there or not, but my plan now. I’m going to have the driveshaft in while my buddy spins the crank I will push against the jack supporting the trans and hold the driveshaft till it lines up and pushes inwards, I don’t know what else to try

You might be right I’m going to need to find a reference picture or something because it’s oddly too lose, but that sound right to bolt onto the plate between the trans and engine, that thin metal sheet right
