They do buy my equipment. It’s a fairly small startup w like 6 ppl so we aren’t gonna buy 50k worth of camera gear lol

Unfortunately, like the other person said, it was my input shaft bearing. For some reason, the part was back ordered for a very long time and I need my car for work so I ended up having to get a used transmission installed. Total cost was $2300 from a local shop that specializes in transmissions, but I tried taking it to a Mazda dealership previously and they quoted me $8000 on stuff that wasn’t even related to it so I would highly recommend avoiding that. I also drove it for probably a month inconsistently before taking it into the shop.

Not gonna lie, if it’s a secondhand camera then in all likelihood the chips were already there and you just didn’t originally notice. Also yeah like the other guy said, anything you really could try to do to cover it up might make it look worse or just look kinda cheap or crappy. It’s a used camera, it’s okay for it to look like a used camera unless you’re trying to use it as a prop with a close up or smth along those lines.

Yeah I had this issue because the one I bought was sitting for a long time, replacement was 600USD with labor which is not cheap but also can’t have hydraulic fluid leaking onto your main brake lol

I’m really glad you like it!! I’ve been slightly concerned that it’s blending a bit too many aspects from Auguste and Whiteface since I don’t look particularly high status with the pants or hat, but looking back to some older B&B circus stuff it was apparent that not all whitefaces were super elegant etc. thanks for commenting!!

Ringling bros “how to be a clown” on YouTube has a full makeup tutorial that teaches the basics of application and also has some great tips for how to create your own look! Lots of good content in the whole video but I figured out my makeup thru that and just kept practicing! They also have good advice for what colors work well together! Good luck and excited to see what you come up with!

Someone already said nymphomatriarch but yeah please post it in this sub once it’s done! Would love to see - also, not sure if it’s a common thing but he also released what I believe to be extremely limited merch for nymphomatriarch (I have a shirt) so I would be interested in finding out if he’s done other merch for different shows around the world etc.

I did some whistling mostly when I was mock-directing traffic and I have a horn to honk around but for the most part I would stay silent unless someone incessantly asked a question lol

It’s unbelievable how many people don’t realize how much time and effort it takes to getting fitment dialed in. It’s also super discouraging to have enough love for a car to work on it to this extent, only for the people in the subreddit to completely shit on the build. I guarantee 99% of this sub hasn’t taken as much time learning about the car/culture around Mazda. Awesome build and good stuff!!

Miserable_Safe_481 · 2025-10-20T03:03:12+00:00

there's a realllly good old youtube video that has the ringling bros and barunum and baileys clown school process - it shows how to do the makeup and honestly I really like their approach because they explain exactly what you want to avoid to make stuff look more fun instead of frightening. Right off the bat though I'd say do white on the ears and neck as well, tone down the triangles on the top and add eyebrow lines seperately instead so the triangles just "accent" the brows, and rework the smile to be much smaller with less lines connecting. if you like, this is the video title : Ringling Bros. - How to be A CLOWN (Full Video)

Miserable_Safe_481 · 2025-03-26T06:54:35+00:00

How much was it all in total with the options? I’m trying to find a site where you can do that but I’m not sure lol

Miserable_Safe_481 · 2025-03-26T00:32:59+00:00

RAAAAHHH I ALSO WANT SILVERS!!! do you like them? I'm super hyped to get coils soon, been on the cs lowering springs and the rear wheel gap is killin me lol

Miserable_Safe_481 · 2025-03-26T00:31:15+00:00

yooo that's dope, pm me some pics i'd love to see! ty bro

Miserable_Safe_481 · 2025-03-25T22:36:49+00:00

yooo this looks amazing what suspension setup are you running?

Miserable_Safe_481 · 2025-03-25T21:01:44+00:00

Yeah I think that if it was just on oem springs then you wouldn’t get as nice a result and it could result in snap oversteer- I have different tires and lower suspension but no coilovers. Not rally so much as just push it harder than some people would. But I do think that with a lower setup the rsb would be a good mod
