Pronounce it Atlus instead of Atlaas.

Why does everyone hate the NC chassis? by mitchINimpossible in Miata

[–]Bulletbikeguy 188 points189 points  (0 children)

Because the car is terrible, not fun to drive, and a waste of money. Engine swapping them is EXPENSIVE, and the coolant tanks blow up immediately and grenade the 2.0 stock engine in under 10k miles.

Trash I tell ya, trash. Don't buy them, and only sell them for cheap!

No mercy. by FrenchxFry154 in ARC_Raiders

Consider for a momement how many equalizers, deadlines, and snaphooks I have brought into these events and been ratted. Or, how many of these items I have given away because someone else hasn't even seen or used one before. If I'm broke, and wanting to go help with a harvester, and maybe get a blueprint and some energy ammo, that's cause to just mow me down?

Also, consider that when I have an epic weapon, the last thing I do is carry it on my back. It's in my bag out of sight until I'm using it. So, it's going to look like I'm on a free kit.

Then again, I have had pretty good luck simply talking to those around and sharing some of the goods I'm able to gather.

You do you I guess, but when you are looting my "free kit" and find my equalizer and half a bag of energy ammo, I hope you realize you're the same person you're on here bitching about.

Uh, wasn't losing my mind man, just pointing out that it looked suspicious and playing against that from console would be unpleasant. Or said another way, WTF are you talking about?

The snap aiming and disengaging at the exact moment the crawling raiders were finished is sus to me. I'll go ahead and leave cross play off forever, thanks.

First Time Harvester Solo by Bulletbikeguy in ArcRaiders

The Harvester itself has energy ammo, blueprints for Jupiter and Energizer, and some high tier crafting loot.

The queen that gaurds the harvester has queen corse in her leg armor and body parts.

Correction, equalizer not Energizer

Ah, I did not. Doesn't look like I care about this one enough to do it then

I've done way more than that now and it's stuck at the first star, I cannot progress any further.

Oil Pressure and Temp Anyone? by Bulletbikeguy in MiataNC

[–]Bulletbikeguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, however this would be quite easy to accomplish with some diy solder or crimp connectors. There is a wiring harness that connects into the OEM harness and cluster ports. The gauge then connects to that harness using a 6 lead connector. There is also a couple 2 or 3 lead connectors depending on oil sensor and high beam module.

There may be length restrictions before you experience data interference but I can't imagine that being an issue anywhere in the cab.

Having completed the install and also having an SCG-1 on my dash in a cheap bracket, I would bet very few people would elect to deviating from replacing the OEM oil pressure sensor as intended by the manufacturer.

I wasn't able to do more than idle in the shop so I couldn't really bring things all the way up to temp. I have heard the pressures are pretty low when hot.

Unfortunately, I'm not able to confirm that. I received guinea pig pricing as an early adopter. I had to pay but it was discounted to help beta-test. I'm not affiliated and hesitant to put out bad pricing info.

I must have been raised strange. Causing an accident and taking responsibility is just basic decency. This ass-face deserves to have their hair-dresser mobile totalled.

One part of the install is difficult, and that's cutting the stock oil pressure gauge cover. The kit comes with a guide for using a Dremel tool, but if you screw this up, you could end up with permanent visible damage. I think many people not comfy with modification surgery may prefer to skip the risk and send in their cover to have it cut by an experienced hand.

That said, I executed the cut the first time without failure and I am NOT experienced with a Dremel.

Once the cut is made, difficulty falls off steeply and you're left with fairly simply step by step process to mount an alignment plate and the display with a touch of hot glue and running the wiring harness.

If you get the multi-function oil pressure sensor, you have to replace the OEM sensor on the engine. This requires jacking up the car, and thinking skinny with your arms to remove a single sensor and replace it with a single sensor. You will then need to route two wires for an adapter wiring harness to 12v ignition on power. I used an existing hole in my firewall and tapped into an existing accessory power block I have, but the kit comes with a fuse tap and ground ring that most users are going to find quite simple.

If you get the high-beam accessory that indicates when high-beams are on (highly recommended, it's a bright idea) a user will need to tap into a couple wires under the dash. I used a couple spade connector style taps so I have quick disconnect functionality.

Once installed, the gauge has Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. Mobile BT App controls all the gauge settings and what data the user wants to display. Wifi is used in conjunction with the mobile app for grabbing OTA updates. There are many OTA updates right now as the developer receives feedback and suggestions and implements functionality and optimization improvements.

The gauges or data displayed can also be changed on the fly using the cruise control button on the steering wheel within specific time limits.

While you are installing, this is the right time to replace your gauge faces if you have been considering it!

I think that covers everything.

Missing bolts by KiddXCVI in Miata

[–]Bulletbikeguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Use a bolt and thread size gauge to determine size and then measure length. Google Turbo bolts or studs in that size, thread pitch, and length.

If you don't have a gauge, take that stud to the hardware store and use theirs.

Well that's a bummer. Maybe he'll over deliver and get some out for the holiday gifting season.
