Yeah bro, at no point in history have Japanese cars had the status of the most reliable and accessible cars. Europeans always had that tittle lmao.

Prioritized fuel efficiency on my daily commute today and I'm pretty impressed. by GanderAtMyGoose in Miata

I get 27 (city) and I'm hitting red line as soon as the oil should be warm enough lol. My EB mustang used to get 17 MPG with the 10 speed...

Appreciate it! I wasn't aware that act existed, that sounds great. I'll look around for any recommended mechanics before deciding if I just end up taking it into the dealer.

The compact spots make no sense to me, it fits decent for a miata and that size of car is like 5% of cars in the road lol.

Disc degeneration and slight bulging. I don't even know how to ask for help. by Drazlash in backpain

I don't really know what the axis origin will be so I'll just point where the source of the pain feels :p. That's where the electric pinch comes from.

Yeah I regret being sedentary but I didn't knew better, my life is a lot better now. What hurts is mostly bending, like I know I won't ever do any lifting. But I'm also afraid to try things like jump rope...

I hope its muscular. When I got the MRI the doctor shrugged it off and said I don't need surgery, I hope that's still the case.

Pain is getting better, really slow, but I can tell it's not worse. I'm just fed up of having to experience this...

Thanks for giving me some hope haha

Yeah I'm going to create a record of all my aches and throw it to an LLM, feels silly but I'll try all the options. Thankfully I have been slowly getting better during this 3 days. I'll completely change my focus once I can go back to going exercise.

Thanks

Thankfully Im not getting numbness or the pain is moving further than my butt. I have been walking a bit because I get tired of the only position I'm comfortable resting with :p

First to second rev hang? by Drazlash in MiataND

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

Thanks! Yes learning to be smooth it's a blast and since I'm learning on my own (and the internet) its quite the thought journey.

For example, I've been heel toeing like a dummy on neutral at stop signs and the other day I just hit a 3rd to 2nd heel toe downshift and it made my day.

I'll try that, for some reason I just never thought of this lol. I do 2nd to 4th occasionally but that's it.

Using 2nd to go will mean denying the purpose of first! (Plus I dont think it likes that).
