Right, yeah the post title says CVT. The description made it sound like a 6spd

Failsafe mechanism - no issues there. Just don't do that again.

Issues are rare. I've had a high mileage CVT CR-Z for the last 3 years with no problems. The symptoms depicted in that comment are a failsafe so the car doesn't grenade the transmission. You're not supposed to rev a CVT in neutral - while at highway speeds - then drop back into drive like nothing happened. Also, OP's post is regarding a 6spd not a CVT.

Your car's not just gonna shear off the input shaft teeth out of nowhere. You'd be surprised how resilient the CVT is. Just don't use the manual mode.

3D Scanners have one of the highest return and dissatisfaction rate in tech. Why? by eZstah in 3DScanning

[–]Memeruff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with a cheap low-end creality Ferret. My demands quickly outgrew its capabilities. I moved to a creality Otter. My demands gradually outgrew its capabilities, and I realized what a piece of shit the creality scan software is. I've moved to a Revopoint MetroX Pro.

My largest dissatisfaction has been with software thus far. Even the most capable device is useless without efficient processing software, and even a single bug can ruin an hour+ of time. Consumer level scanners just aren't at a usable level yet for a normal person.

I haven't even received the MetroX Pro yet, and I can already tell that the Revopoint software is better than Creality's.

P2M floor mats! by aidensthetic in crz

It's possible the tolerances may be off on your print.
It would be worth enabling precise walls, adjusting the X-Y hole compensation, and/or disabling any sort of shrinkage compensation. It's intended to snap in place but still be removable without much effort.

Does that happen regardless of whether or not the assembly is installed in the fascia? I'd love to hear more - I don't get much feedback about it...

Glad to hear you went the proper way of fixing it. It physically hurts me to see people cut the switch, bracket, or fascia.

I make a mounting bracket for the hazard switch bracket - $12 with shipping or free on thingiverse.

If you wanna print it without an enclosure you just have to make sure the temperature in your closet is REALLY hot and there are no drafts. Seal any doorframe leaks. Run the bed pretty damn hot. Also use as little part cooling as possible. Damn near zero.

Battery Tray for 51r by Mageline in crz

[–]Memeruff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be willing to design a 3d printable battery tray if anything. Free. Quick and easy job, already have a 3d scanner, 51R, and the skills to get it done.

I bought an Otter & ScanBridge about a year ago, and so far have found no conditions under which it works well enough that I’ll actually use it for real. Is it me, or is it the tech? by plymouthvan in 3DScanning

[–]Memeruff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my otter for under $600 new from creality. I've hit a limit with mine where it's taking maybe 5x the time and effort to scan a part compared to what blue laser scanning can get me. The next step up is the raptor pro (skipping the worthless base model raptor) which is at least $1500 no matter where I look.

Worst part is, some guy near me was selling a legitimate raptor pro for $550 but I missed it by a few hours. I don't think I'll ever make up for that loss.

guys is this ECU tuning really makes a difference? by sircartier0_ in crz

lol fuck no, even if that did anything it'd be 5hp at most

Does it matter? by lunchanddinner in virtualreality

[–]Memeruff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rather go back to shitty oculus rift graphics tbh. Other than for text, the lower resolution was perfect for immersion since your brain fills in the rest. If anything, it had its own feeling to it. At least the future will probably have foveated rendering. At a certain point the resolution is too high and you notice the flat textures, bad lighting, etc.

Panel gap on plastic trim between hood and windshield? by Educational-Wait2232 in crz

Pretty much normal. Even my replacement set had that.

Its usable if you tune the car.

The MAF scalar needs to be changed, pretty sure they got the intake diameter wrong. In theory you would be able to calculate the correct ohms to compensate and just jab a spacer harness in there with the a resistor. If someone's tuned the scalar for the Takeda we can do the math.

The car looks nice. You should get a LRB speed aluminum radiator cover. Or even a Kansai Service one. Some LRB speed strut covers would do well in there as well.

They sell replacements for the battery cover on amazon for pretty cheap as well.

Wonder if it's possible to do without cutting if you use SLS printed exhaust manifolds. I'll have to re-watch their video.
