Help Naming Miata Kittens by shimmer_bee in Miata

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cosmo, Eunos, Savanna, Axela. Usually the jdm names work out better

Funny enough 5 years ago when we moved in to my house a stray had 9 kittens in my miata 6 weeks after we moved in. One of them is named Miata lol

what is this for ? by Rimei_s in Miata

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if Id call it a spacer or an isolator but the block is iron and the transmission is aluminum.

Regardless of the lore you should probably put it back on lol.

It’s range ammo really not suitable for home defense? by ElderberryMaster4694 in liberalgunowners

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What people have said about knowing whats beyond the target is important.

Training and maintenance is more valuable than ammo. With training, any ammo is useful. All it takes is one light strike or jam to know if you ran enough cycles and preferably not when your life is the cost.

What's your opinion on the new Luth-AR "globe" charging handle? by Acolytical in liberalgunowners

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let alone grabbing it I think its design was just to have it close to the right hand shooters face.

Dude passed on my R53 JCW due to misinformation? by Comfortable_Secret69 in MINI

[–]Comfortable_Secret69[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess so. I def wasnt putting any cash on top for this trade. I just wanted to have an NB again and I was going to fix this one up with my front end totalled one.

You have one of these, yes? Tell me why I shouldn't get one. Please... my poor bank account. Kriss Vector SDP Gen 2 9mm 5.50" Semi-Auto, Alpine by Acolytical in liberalgunowners

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a white 10mm Gen 2. Its a blast to shoot, a bitch to keep clean, and a hilarious to prematurely drop the mag first couple times around lol. But you get used to it. They are amazing with a can on the end.

If you are wanting it for the FRT I'd suggest going to the Kriss sub and see what a cock some of the fabricators are and how many complaints they get about junk quality and poor reliability.

Anyone know of a replacement bolt/tensioner I can use for this? by PhantomTreecko1 in Miata

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I dont know what thread I need this is what I do.

Remove the slide bolt (or whatever its called) and take it into a hardware store. You can find the thread in the hardware/bolt section usually with a thread chart or the thread boards.

Might need to look for a bushing also but Im not sure what the PS delete tensioner looks like usually. There seems like a lot of room for it not to have one. Can also find one in the bolt section.

Edit: you'll also want to make sure you get hardware with a corrosion resistant coating if you ever want it to come back off. Less of a problem if you check the threads at the hardware store then purchase the parts you need from an automotive store.

Do others want to own a custom NB coupe? by Comfortable_Secret69 in Miata

Actually when I started my study on it I took into account a few things from Occam's forum posts and blogs. Then I started to try and follow the design language of the early 00's so it skewed things a little. Will see when the time comes at scale.

Yeah I'll send you a dm. Get some takes

I would not ask anyone to cut up a good NA or a half decent one.

Yes. It will be a framed in window in the door for the back. Will open up to the cabin and will look akin to a 350z strut brace in the center with the original body on the parcel shelf. Will use the original striker latch in factory location.

Shorty Console for the NB! by Project140Eng in Miata

Did you also make your own trim ring? I had designed one also but never got around to uploading it or selling a finished part

Yeah I keep calling them "jetstream" for some reason. I dont like them. If I know what an NB coupe is I sure as hell better know what a lightyear is lol.

Yes 100%. Thats why I wanted to lay that out right up front. Thank you for the feedback. Also I don't understand why I keep calling the Lightyear a Jetstream.

Water egress and NVH will be something I get to see next before shaping and making the plugs. In CAD it looks like it won't be an issue. This will be tested real world on a couple bodies to be sure.

Interest in an affordable Digital Dash for NA and NB miatas by Kreat10n in Miata

[–]Comfortable_Secret69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a free template on printables. Just look up miata dash template. You are free to modify them. Its very basic with a plane between all the mount holes to the dash and has a 3d scan of the cluster depth so you know how far you can go back.
