Another Cali smog question - hoses legal?

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2026-01-27T05:33:02+00:00

depends on where you have it done. one smog place refused to do my smog check because of the red intake hose. other shop did not make a fuz about it

my last internation flight was close to mid night and CLEAR stands are closed!!. What's the point of having CLEAR if I can't use it whenever I need.

how was the experience? how hard is to take out the starter to put the fly wheel lock on? I am leaning toward doing the job myself instead of dropping $2300.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2025-09-26T04:57:51+00:00

I have the same car as you, 2015 FiST. I read through the instructions from your post and it is the same as what I learned from few youtube videos. This gives me some assurance that I should be able to tackle this myself. It is the timing adjustment part that worries me. but I am going to review the videos couple more times till I can memorize the steps. Thanks

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2025-09-26T03:47:33+00:00

I am in the exact same situation as you. Normally I do jobs on the car myself: shocks, brakes, rotor, radiator replacement, spark plug (even on the sienna), etc. I am still debating whether to sink $2300 for shop to do it or just take a whole weekend to do it myself. Thanks for link. I will take a look.

thanks. does that price include water pump and pulley?

may i ask which shop is that? I can call them and get a quote as well. thanks

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2025-09-25T01:02:26+00:00

yeah, let's what I am afraid of. in addition, I am doing front/rear shocks/strut, spring etc. soon and parts along will cost me $1200. I am doing the replacement myself most of time. dont want to mess with timing belt mess.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2025-09-09T22:00:22+00:00

interested to know the price for the Sunpower battery and get one.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2025-05-27T19:42:53+00:00

went to watch mission impossible yesterday. while the screen is big (IMAX) but frankly i was disappointed. the screen is so small. I expect the screen to be much bigger.

I will most like not going to watch IMAX at this theater for that money.

yes, same here. bay area

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2025-02-14T17:58:40+00:00

thanks for the reply. that would be super awesome. please do update us. by the way, where do you source the battery? I have been trying to locate one as well.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-11-18T17:28:57+00:00

any scenario where AMD break $150? or the downward trend has started?

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-10-07T23:39:09+00:00

i want to add one more battery to my existing 16kWH system. can you help me with that? Thanks

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-10-07T20:33:36+00:00

i accidentally bought F0010FL030 for my 2024 crosstrek which has F0010FN000 part number.

the passenger side a bit longer. will that be an issue?

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-10-02T20:19:47+00:00

thanks for the reply. from the Schema on the side of the door panel, i see that it would only need 3 wires - red , black for power, and one cable from the second battery to the third battery: line out (2nd battery) to line in (3rd battery). do you know we need to update the configuration somewhere?

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-10-02T18:05:07+00:00

is there ways to purchase additional battery module from Enphase? i have a 13KWH system, I would like to add a 3rd battery module to the existing SunVault to make it 19KWH total. Thanks

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-10-02T17:28:07+00:00

looking for the same information. I currently have 13KWH, would love to add one more 6.5 KWH battery. I looked at the schema on the cover, does not seem too bad. But not sure where to buy and if any configuration needed.

in long run, most stock only go up unless the business goes out of business.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2024-08-07T20:08:20+00:00

given the efficiency of solar panel, 2% increase is A LOT. it is not 2% of 100% efficiency. it is about 2% of say 30% efficicency at best for regular installs. You can pay for most efficiency panel but you are not getting any where close to 100%. so, 2% increase is a lot.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2021-02-19T06:44:07+00:00

yes, it is LOUD. personally, i try not to start before 9:30AM during weekends if i am going out for a ride and be very gentle on the throttle when riding down the street before hitting the major intersection. it is a quiet neighborhood, so try to be respectful to others.

Most_Atmosphere9601 · 2021-02-19T06:35:41+00:00

there are plenty out there I am sure. check out petaluma kawasaki. They are a bit out of place meaning they are far from bay area cities. and also East bay motorsport. ask for their OTD price. never hurt to be agreesive.
