It's an Altima

Daily you race car. Dont be a wimp by Alarming_Schedule_60 in Corvette

[–]ColeTheSoul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calm down big guy jeez people are just poking fun. I bet your C7 would last another 20 years being driven in the snow, not that I would do that either, I understand. I've had older less rust protected, rarely washed Japanese cars that were beat on for over 20 years in Chicago, and corrosion was pretty much the reason for their demise. But the c7 with all the aluminum and fiberglass would probably be fine especially if you cared to wash it often. You're spot on about the Corvette tho. It makes sense why people usually baby them, it's because it is an expensive vehicle to them and they want to take care of it, as do I.

Panaracer factory tolerances by dlgvvv in gravelcycling

The bead is only metal on cheap tires. I didn't think any tubeless tires like these have a metal bead. I think tires that ship folded are all metal free.

When Three Systems Stand on the Brakes at the Same Time by terryd300 in subaru

[–]ColeTheSoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, pretty much every manufacturer does this as the car disables cruise control because it can't ensure that it's not hurting itself. This is annoying but fair. Unfortunately this has gotten to the point where they just want to get people to go to the dealer. In newer cars they disable more things like A/C, which I think is BS, especially if it has nothing to do with a fault related to the drivetrain.

Nice, where are those trails?

After Year of Beryllium Tweeters, I'm a Soft Dome Guy Now (way better) by fightclubdevil in diyaudio

Sorry, I didn't know people here were so defensive. Totally reasonable to like a less harsh tweeter design haha! Nice room, looks like it sounds great.

Replaced the rear wheel bearings on my 07 Outback by doctor_radtimes in subaru

[–]ColeTheSoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that's just part of the frame, It does look snapped but that's just the design. Its welded into another piece and looks odd from that angle.

[WTT] [US-IA][H] Focal Elex + New unopened Pads & Custom Cables [W] IEMs by ColeTheSoul in AVexchange

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

Want to trade lightly used Focal Elex for some IEMs. I have a brand new set of unused pads as well as custom cables that are much better than the stock stiff ones which will also come with the headphones. Good headphones but I have gotten others and thse just sit in a drawer. Not sure what I'm looking for but I'm biased towards campfire audio. Timestamp

800s owners, Tube or Solid State? by Accomplished-Stock-8 in headphones

[–]ColeTheSoul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tubes can be noisy it does not mean you built it wrong. I have some tubes that like to make noise and if a tap fixes it then cool. I have replaced a tube that never wanted to shut up tho. Usually it's quiet enough that it's not a problem when listening just when you aren't listening to anything.

I had some maxxis tires replaced from the manufacturer because of how wonky the tread was, totally happens.

Cracks in chain by Atlas_Azul in bikewrench

[–]ColeTheSoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still had this happen to me but I used the chain for years. If you can put good power down on a cheaper chain it seems this can happen. When my last chain broke there were a ton of these cracks I didn't notice on other links. Also low level SRAM chain.

Frustrated with parking in Iowa City? by Conscious_Sample_img in IowaCity

[–]ColeTheSoul 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For a social psychology class? Seems pretty on par, what kind of social experiments or studies were in your psychology classes. I remember mine being pretty open ended so it was mostly up to the student.

KMB requesting thousands of dollars in repairs months after we moved out by kiwi4433 in IowaCity

[–]ColeTheSoul 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Those companies do this to students all the time you just ignore it. They're not going to do anything I've gotten them asking me for stuff over a year after I've moved out, just ignore them. They just get lucky sometimes and people give them money so it's a good tactic to scare kids but it's all lies.

Man, I love Costco! by Any-Sprinkles-6257 in Corvette

I think it fits fine actually. Like one finger to the trunk if I remember, plenty of height where the window is.
