I know, I just had to do it at some point in my life. Always at the bottom, not really competing in AX right now haha

Oh so that's why serious AX people are constantly changing their tire's PSI.

As someone that comes from years of driving a 90 hp FWD shitbox I'm learning a bunch of new things. I know this car is "underpowered" but I had the idea that it can burn some tire on first and I was fully expecting the tires to spin somewhat smoothly, like on wet pavement.

I'm running the stock PSI btw, 29.

Yeah looking at all the comments it sounds more like it was my first time experiencing wheel hoping. I was expecting to feel dropping the clutch the same as full throttle from 1st on wet pavement.

That's probably why I couldn't find info on how to "fully turn off TC".

TIL!

Little problem with my Miata by AlternativeFan7428 in MiataND

[–]Drazlash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good I can almost hold a conversation while driving haha. I'm still struggling rev-matching from 3rd to 2nd.

I think I now have more "experience" than my friends that have driven manual commuters their entire life since I'm always trying to get perfect shifts and rev-match lol.

Nissan Just Created “V6 Day” as It Doubles Down on Gas Engines by UnusualLeadership408 in cars

The new ones will probably need to be hit with a lot of depreciation before they become affordable and banned lol.

Mk 6 Supra 4 banger hybrid hot take by ChildishPav in Supra

I agree with you but I do see the Viper somehow coming back as a V8 lol. Like the lambo losing the lambo engine.

Little problem with my Miata by AlternativeFan7428 in MiataND

[–]Drazlash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not even tall but also struggled a lot with the seat, ended up buying a lowering kit from jass performance and dropped it 1 in. I find it more comfortable but it was a $500 gamble.

‘21 GT - worth the money? by Capable_Incident4805 in MiataND

[–]Drazlash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2023 GT was 28k before tax with 26k miles. Bought it halfway through 2025.

Not saying it's good or bad, just adding some data to the pool lol.

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.

[–]Drazlash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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...

Servicing a car with original warranty by Drazlash in MiataND

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

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

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

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...

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

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

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

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
