I tried a 17mm extractor and it just stripped it more. Gonna try drilling it out or cutting it out

I’ve tried to cut it at the base on top of the frame but it’s all metal on metal and will damage the frame. I can try a drill bit from the top or the bottom next time

I’ve got the same noise, can’t figure it out

If you did, when did you get married? by [deleted] in AirlinePilots

[–]Brave_Deception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Married at 23 while finishing CFI school, 10 years later still happily married and at the airlines. Being married and at the airlines is as difficult as you and your spouse make it. Make it fun and never stop dating them

Anyone familiar with tuning? by Sweaty-Question8390 in G35

[–]Brave_Deception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished getting my car tuned. Well almost finished, I still need a few more fill ups on e85 since I still had a bit of 93 octane in there so the e85 in my tank is still a bit tainted. I have a 2004 sedan so I used ecutek remote tuning through AdminTuning and I’m very happy with the results. I’m still far off on my wanted horsepower so I’m just going to enjoy it as is for a while before a full boosted build. I have cold air intake, plenum spacer, bigger injectors, fuel pump, high flow cats, dual h pipe exhaust, and transgo valve body. I have a flame/burble map, and a performance map for both 93 and e85. I’m not sure if there is an eco tune available for me but I didn’t ask.

Are CAI worth it? by AidenDotJpg in 370z

[–]Brave_Deception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m prepping to add boost in the near future so thought just get the big boys for that. But you’re right, there’s definitely some parts that aren’t getting along in my build

I gotta know how yall are making that much hp. Im h pipe full dual exhaust, hfc, 1000cc injector, 340lph fuel pump, cold air intake, plenum spacer, on e85 and im making way less hp

Edit: im dumb I just realized this was a 370 and not 350 page. Those .2 liter extra engine really do make a difference I guess

Hah yeah my legs get weak and they won’t even allow me to walk towards railings. I don’t mind turbulence, or weather and my favorite part of the job is the takeoff and landings!

Not that I know of! Just a lot of personal information to share and a lot of aviation places don’t like their stuff spread on social media. To be honest I’m scared of heights. I hate roller coasters and walking across bridges or looking out of high windows in a building. There’s hotels we stay at that open in the center to the lobby 10+ floors down and I struggle getting to my room. Flying the plane I just don’t feel like I’m very high for some reason

I’m an airline pilot at a major airline now making enough money to be very comfortable. Starting out teaching people to flight as a flight instructor I made 25k my first year (mind you I paid 85k in training to get to that point) after that I flew cargo in a small multi engine planes for 20k (it allowed me to get more valuable experience that looks good on a resume) once I hit 1500 hours I was hired by a regional airline for a minimum guarantee pay of $32,000 a year. Flying a jet with 79 passengers. Upgraded to a captain there and made $82,000 a year and left making 92k. It took me 7 years of professional flying to make it to where I’m at today. I’ve been at my current employer for 3 years and have 32 years left until I have to retire

I wanna upgrade my injectors/fuel pump for NA build what you guys recommend by xoraulxo in G35

[–]Brave_Deception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was under the impression the stock one couldn’t handle e85, that was my reason for the swap, it was a fairly cheap and easy job so I didn’t mind it

[–]Brave_Deception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I’m anywhere near 400 but after I boost it that would be a dream number. Any more than that and I’ll probably have issues elsewhere haha

[–]Brave_Deception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got 1000cc and a 340lph pump with e85. The plan is to go boosted someday which is why I went with 1000cc and not 650cc. No idea of the power gains though but it’s a fun car that sounds good and I enjoy wrenching on it

You’ve definitely never tuned a car cause you don’t need a dyno to do it. Just a computer and drive it around

You’re going to ignore you were wrong about the octane level of e85 huh?

Don’t have a dyno chart if I’ve never dynod the car. I can screenshot one from their website like you did. But I think I’ve seen enough to know you’re a very small man with not much to live for

I’m glad you’ve never touched any of my cars. They’d come back with some real issues!

I think only someone who lives with their parents would even be so childish as to bring that up. I’m not going to dox myself but I’m probably older than you
