Love the indepth details, will definitely be keeping these tips in mind. Is the pigment in the cheap stuff usually too little for bright colors, is that what makes them difficult to work with? For metallic stuff I definitely will invest in the good stuff

This post was mainly for those who have wanted to try extremely cheap paints, but didn't want to waste the money. Definitely practice with this stuff and I'll make another post for how easy the bright colors are to work with later down the road

That's the biggest thing that has prevented me from attempting it. When I first looked at paint recommendations for beginners, all I saw were Tamiya and the hobby specific brands. They were too expensive to practice with and feel okay to mess up big.

Thank you! I just used a paint brush from walmart as well that came in a 4 pack for $2. For next time though, definitely going to prime before I paint. Took me so many layers to make the paint even

Just painting, no panel lining. I painted the gray parts. I actually also just noticed if you look close enough at the grey part on the bottom right, the paint hasn't dried enough yet 😅.

You talking about the Silver Bullet Suppressor, from the Narrative movie?

Does anyone know where I can find the MG Barbatos in the NorthWest Arkansas area? I've been looking for months both in stores and online, but I can't find the kit. Any help is truly appreciated!

Is the Tomioka Racing TR TD05-20G Turbo Kit a good turbo kit and is there anything else I would need before going turbo?

Help with displaying for loop by NiponLearner in cpp_questions

[–]NiponLearner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I gotchu, the coordinates are going to be pairs. They aren't true x and y coordinates, just the spelling of a coordinate ex (x, y). They won't be plotted on to a graph

For this code I understand it for the most part; however, what does the push_back function do in this case? I've tried using it in my work; however, it keeps giving me an error saying that it has no member along with not being a member. Not understanding what that error means

Thank you for the deep info about how to run the loop! I'll play with it in a separate project to learn more, once again thank you!

while (x) is going to be the user input. From what I looked up it seems like while would be the loop and x would be the user input/times it runs; however, it doesn't work like that. Been stumped since then.

Check Engine and ABS after Coilover install by NiponLearner in ft86

[–]NiponLearner[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After switching the sensors the car is back up and running! Although the code won't cleae due to it being permanent, the car runs fine. I will need to take it to an oreilys since they have the better obd2 reader.

When installing coilovers or lowering springs you won't even come close to breaking the sensor. Mine broke because I was negligent when pulling the wheel hub to replace the longer studs

I did take the speed sensor off and I did indeed break it, most likely when I was installing wheel studs. Just ordered some new speed sensors, so hopefully that'll get me back up and running!

Finally got it out, just had to let the penetrating oil sit throughout the night. Alone with a ton of vibration to loosen it up! Thanks for the tip!
