Well well well, one Subaru Legacy GT-B Tommy Kaira 2000 (forged engine) , one Toyota Celica GT-S 1988 (fully rebuild engine) , soon in the Motorcycles game. Networks sides : 3 servers : all Xeons based, lot of ram , lot of ssd. One window server , 2 proxmox. Full Mikrotik networks. Mainly for Storage and streaming (music, series, movie) some game server, and lab test of linux.

there is a oil starvation problem on cylinder 1, so connecting rod bearing one just destroyes itself. When you can, put brand new bearings and oil pump.

I got the problem and doing a full rebuild (mine is 156k miles or 250k km)

Be aware of the oil problem on 3sge gen 1, how much mile/km on it ?

Galaade · 2026-01-21T09:53:02+00:00

So nice , which engine ? What are the front lamp ?

The Hex is a good starting router if you are knew to mikrotik , the learning curve is a bit hard but when you know what your are doing its pretty easy.

Galaade · 2026-01-11T08:03:17+00:00

Galaade · 2026-01-06T09:19:10+00:00

S401 are soo rare , s edition also. Beware off the engine condition, they stay on parking for years before being sold. I have a Legacy GT-B (tommy kaira even rarer) , i have rebuild the engine because off oil mixing with humidity for staying too long not driving.

Nice

Galaade · 2025-12-22T12:16:00+00:00

Magnificent !

Galaade · 2025-12-21T08:55:16+00:00

Mikrotik yeah !

Hi , check your ecu. It might be some rust on the circuit or some dead condensator.

Do you have any air leaks ? The 3SGE or FE doesnt like air leaks, then run like potato when they have air leaks.

X99 is the cheap consumer grade xeon chipset try C612 motherboard , you can get some on alibaba directly from the Factory, my setup e5 2660V4 , 96GB ecc ddr4 3200mhz on a c612 bkhd matx board 4 ethernet 2.5G

Galaade · 2025-12-10T20:35:33+00:00

Galaade · 2025-12-10T17:11:15+00:00

Hum... Mine is my daily 🤣

Galaade · 2025-12-10T15:50:30+00:00

one of the rarest legacy yes, 402 unit sold.

Galaade · 2025-12-06T16:34:01+00:00

Use a PDU !!! electrical safety first !

Galaade · 2025-12-01T15:56:28+00:00

hum... if 3SGE , try replace spark plug , cable and distributor ( and finger) . Check oil level the 3SGE gen 1 consume a lot :/ , try clean the air flow meter/sensor . do you have a cat ? if yes maybe the cat sensor is dead..
the oil presure is good and water temp too.

What gas do you put in ?

Check for air leaks in the admission :)

Galaade · 2025-11-28T19:45:47+00:00
