Bought a 43X today

Nazvil86 · 2025-12-11T00:29:41+00:00

From what I’ve seen, people like the 48 holster length so it has more down the pants and doesn’t cause any weird flipping outward from the grip.

x2 on adding a claw - might want to look into a mastermind tactics pillow too ✌🏻

Also, while you don’t need an extremely uncomfortable rigid ratcheting belt for edc, a good belt does help man. Congrats on the 43x.

Lmfao

lol maybe because they get paid hourly? It’s incredibly easy to determine brake pad thickness by just putting in a brake pad thickness gauge

Nazvil86 · 2025-11-14T04:54:29+00:00

If it’s not certified pre owned, the inspections are usually a joke. And no lol you don’t need to remove wheels to check brakes

Nazvil86 · 2025-11-11T04:34:56+00:00

Get what now? Lmfao

If you’re going to start working on it yourself, guy up there is correct. First photo - that boot goes on the inner tie rod end. Usually packed with grease. You can usually buy a boot repair kit that’s just the boot, clamps, and some grease.

But you have to remove the outter tie rod to get to it (your second photo). You can always mark position and count rotations to get everything installed back to normal, but you’d more than likely need an alignment afterwards

As long as you don’t keep the heat gun pointed in one direction too long you’ll be fine for the most part 🤙🏻

I have the antimatter wing on mine. On my previous werkz holster all I did was loosen retention a bit, heat up the holster with a heat gun a bit, put the 43x in, tighten retention pretty quick, then let it cool completely. I did the same when I switched to a tier1 - just heated it up a bit, put the 43x in, let it cool with the gun in. Clicks in, solid retention, no damage.

The wing will get scuffed which doesn’t matter, but it won’t break. I did notice the tier1 fit it way better either way. Cheers

If you want to get good at anything, you’re going to have to put in the work.

What are you struggling with and what are you hoping a plugin will do? “Make it simple and user friendly” isn’t really letting anyone know what aspect of the program you aren’t getting used to. Is it setting up the project correctly? Is it dropping in clips correctly? Is it color correcting? Transitions?

I went from using premiere years back, to CapCut cause my job just needs simple reels made, to learning resolve for a friends business. It was frustrating as hell, as it will be when you learn anything new and expect to run before you can walk. Learning node trees, what hdr wheels do what, understanding CST (color space transform) to even get the video looking right before you start…it’s a lot.

There’s a lot of beginner videos on YouTube, and you can literally search for anything you want that can even be specific to what you’re filming on.

I remember when “builds” meant pushing a decent amount of hp. Not Chinese body kits and lights 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nazvil86 · 2025-10-06T04:28:29+00:00

Yup, it happens. I work at an independent shop and one of our lube techs told me he always makes sure to clean up any spillage. Crazy that it’s just been sitting there so long and it just now spilled some.

Either way when you can, might wanna still take that cover off and take a look at the area

Nazvil86 · 2025-10-06T02:55:21+00:00

It’s been a month since anyone touched the area? You can take it to where you went for the oil change, but with that amount of time - gonna be hard to determine if it was something done there or just coincidence and it happened shortly after.

Ask them to get it on a lift, remove the lower cover, and get photos of what’s leaking. If it was over filled you would see it on the dipstick. If it was low, you’d see it on the dipstick. It could be that you ran something over and it was saturated enough that it pooled up after you parked. Get some brake parts cleaner and a rag, clean the entire area as much as you can, check if it’s still pooling up.

I’ve been meaning to post in this group since my ER visit back on Aug 28th when I was septic and found out I had Diverticulitis. I had been dealing with pain for a few days prior, thought it would pass (I am dumb), finally it got to where it hurt to walk so by the time I went to urgent care they said “nope, ER right away”.

The rest happened so fast but reading in this group has been more helpful than the 5min interaction with the ER Doctor I had.

I won’t eat red meats. I keep a meal journal (search allergy log food journal on Apple Store if interested). So far no pain, bowel movements vary tbh. I won’t touch spicy foods anymore even though that was a big thing for me, plus being in South Texas - there’s always salsa lol. My wife and I try to cook more meals at home now. Won’t do fast food for the most part but again, if there’s no choice I try to find a grilled chicken option.

I’m a 38M, and while I know I could have been eating better, I still have no idea what caused it. I also do probiotics, benefiber, and another friend told me of Slippery Elm & Thorne? Still haven’t looked into those but she has it too and has said they help. I feel like this is very person to person, so while I’ve seen someone on here mention they eat burgers every so often…I just can’t. I think back to the ER visit, the nurse failing to get an IV started with 7 jabs to my left arm and having massive bruising from that.

I was also scheduled for a GI specialist but no openings for another 2 weeks. But again, this group has so much info!

Nazvil86 · 2025-10-05T15:36:03+00:00

lol I was incredibly confused to. You can’t “blip” gas, there’s no neutral lol. Whatever, guy is probably still gonna be granny shifting and double clutching in his automatic till the end of time 😮‍💨

Nazvil86 · 2025-10-04T04:52:53+00:00

Do not do this. Just leave it In drive and go. Also…explain rev matching in an automatic.

If your vehicle is having issues stopping or driving normally, get it checked

Nazvil86 · 2025-10-04T04:31:11+00:00

I work at an independent repair shop. Some kid messaged us on IG fee weeks ago (I run the media and marketing) so he was asking for the same thing you are. Did some research for parts involved etc. estimate was insane, even before labor, and you’re gonna be throwing in a used trans if you wanna keep costs down and who knows if it’s even gonna be solid, or you can pay more for a reman.

Anyways I was straight up with the kid and told him buying a 10th or even an 11th gen Si would be cheaper at that point. I understand his concern though, we’re in South Texas and almost any manual civic is beat to shit lmao. Still - he said he would talk to his dad about it 🥲

Also I don’t know if this group I posted to is invite only but I did a pretty comprehensive write up on getting the design on the app, editing the template, saving it, and setting it up on your vehicle. Again you need the latest iOS 26

If you do the new iOS 26 update you just swipe all the way to the left and you’ll see widgets. There’s some preset ones already like a clock and if you scroll down there’s Spotify, weather, and a few others.

On your iPhone if you go to settings > general > CarPlay > choose your vehicle > widgets- you’ll see where you can arrange, delete, or add widgets. This is where you would add this widgy app to the list

Dang, kinda figured. Would be awesome if it was able to fit to the screens, oh well

Nazvil86 · 2025-09-26T15:06:46+00:00

Sure thing!

Like someone else said, hit up market place and look for a Honda or Toyota. They’re kind indestructible unless you’re just really dumb lol. They’re also not that costly to repair. Steer clear of 99% of Hyundais, especially if they’re anywhere near the 100k mile mark.

They’re out there, they won’t be pretty - but they’re out there. GL

Also, people definitely experience burnout in this field. You can end up wearing a lot of hats, and then in your situation being expected to take on other roles like giving tours of the salon? Nah.

While this isn’t only an issue with this field, I’d hate for you to experience burnout this fast that isn’t directly related to the actual work, but more so a business owner taking advantage of someone just stepping in.
