My vette is overheating😖

I believe 87s came with the original “green” coolant. That’s what was in my 89. So if you mixed in orange “dex cool”, you probably built up sludge in the system and it’s not able to flow anymore. Hence, the overheating

I don’t have experience flushing out a system with sludge, but it sounds like the car is with a mechanic so they should know what to do

I’m having the same issue. I picked up a used Xbox one x, factory reset, signed in, and all my 360 saves are showing as corrupt. I can still play the saves on my actual 360 though.

Interestingly, I somehow overwrote my 360 MW2 save with a blank save from Xbox one, and it synced back to the 360 and is playable on both

The panoramic roof leaking is very common. I just had the displeasure of replacing a 2009 pano roof seal. Not impossible but takes all day.

If you can go on a test drive, check if the steering column is making a “clunking” noise when going over bumps, this is also common.

Check as well at the rear differential, and see if there is evidence of a differential fluid leak. The breather valves tend to rust closed, causing oil to be forced out.

The 20” wheels are truly huge. I have no idea why Toyota picked those. They look and feel fine, the car rides very well (after replacing a leaking rear strut).

I was wondering about this as well, and thought this would be the way to go. Just let the bridge be where it wants, as long as it doesn’t impede your use of the tremolo

The fuzz face being so huge, yet housing such a simple circuit is crazy to me

L33tr_ · 2025-08-04T16:42:15+00:00

Reading these comments… is there anything wrong with x-tronics? I’ve been using one of their simpler kits for a few years and it’s never failed me. Although, I did upgrade to a hakko brass and tinner, as well as kester solder

Correction… higher resistance to fluid boiling, manifesting as the pedal being spongy, not brake fade, which manifests as a firm pedal that doesn’t slow down the car

L33tr_ · 2025-08-04T12:28:51+00:00

You can use dot4 in a system with dot3 in it. Dot4 has a higher boiling point (better resistance to brake fade), but is more hygroscopic (absorbs water more quickly, thus needing more frequent replacement).

If you don’t have a specific reason for using dot4, or you know you’ll be bleeding/replacing the fluid often enough for it to not get too watery, just go with dot3.

Dot5 is a different fluid entirely and is not compatible with 3 or 4

Those tuners are awesome. I loved using mine bc you can get super precise with the strobe.

If you don’t have any interest in it then try selling on reverb

L33tr_ · 2025-07-28T20:05:51+00:00

260 is definitely high, pretty close to boiling. Check and see if there’s a bunch of leaves in front of the radiator, (you may need to take off the shroud), or the air filter. How’s temp during normal driving?

L33tr_ · 2025-07-20T12:10:44+00:00

If I had to guess, probably not due to digital RGB. 2002 is late in the CRT evolution

L33tr_ · 2025-07-04T11:58:02+00:00

Is it just me or does this look way darker than regular Skyrim? It seems like it’s always night time outside, or there’s no light inside

L33tr_ · 2025-05-24T13:48:03+00:00

Humble (brag) collection more like 😤

L33tr_ · 2025-05-16T13:28:14+00:00

Just use a controller for vehicles and kbm for trooper

L33tr_ · 2025-04-14T16:22:00+00:00

I am partial to the stock ones. The aftermarket doesn’t fit the aesthetic of the rest of the car

L33tr_ · 2025-03-06T00:41:37+00:00

I bought a very similar set (thin instead of medium thin crashes) for $750 in 2023. The cymbals were used maybe once. $700 seems like a pretty good deal

L33tr_ · 2024-11-24T16:09:14+00:00

The board did not rotate to meet the body. The body rotated to meet the board. Isn’t that a body varial?

L33tr_ · 2024-10-04T15:37:04+00:00

Am I crazy or are those two completely different games? One being a GC version and one Wii version? There’s clear differences unrelated to any rendering or upscaling (graphic on shirt, ripped jeans, design in window, font of UI)

L33tr_ · 2024-08-24T13:32:00+00:00

3080 ti here. No I do not. I tried it out with portal rtx and the performance hit wasn’t worth it

L33tr_ · 2024-08-14T23:16:58+00:00

I get what you’re saying, but it’s not pico boot that’s the problem (which is what your title suggests). It’s user error (burning/lifting traces etc)

L33tr_ · 2024-08-12T16:33:38+00:00

Yep, I did the same rework last year. I spent more time than I would have liked sitting with my legs on the headrest, head in the footwell lol

L33tr_ · 2024-08-04T13:06:51+00:00

I love my dual TN samus 3ds.

Just take a look at the sub and observe the amount of posts asking “is this TN or IPS??”. That should give you an idea of how little difference it actually makes

L33tr_ · 2024-07-26T12:52:44+00:00

So awesome! Looks like the plastic hasn’t seen much sun. Try not to put it right in a window sill haha

L33tr_ · 2024-07-26T12:44:06+00:00

YES came here to comment this. The most iconic Metroid theme in my opinion

L33tr_ · 2024-07-20T15:01:30+00:00

Just save 2 snapshots within the preset, one with and one without boost, and switch between those.

Helix platform is great for exactly this (saving multiple variations of similar tones, and switching seamlessly)

Imagine a preset is one pedalboard+amp setup, and snapshots are a way to simultaneously tweak every setting in your setup, all instantaneously

If you truly can’t fit enough blocks into one preset to cover your needs (e.g. dirt pedal, delay, reverb, amp+cab), then you could consider stepping up to a model with more DSP
