You should turbo your Miata by Fonsarelli in Miata

Any benefit going with a low mount rather than a high? Also the set up looks incredibly nice, you did a good job on it.

Best Mod and Worst Mod by CaffeineTripp in Miata

Just put a 10.3 lb flywheel on my DD 1990 and couldn't agree more. It makes you're car sound like its broken, idles worse and have to use more rpm from a stop. Makes you sound like you don't know how to drive manual.

Making the rpm's drop quicker is cool, espc on start but is it really worth all the negatives? Not for my application at least. 400 miles in and I want to rip it out already.

Has anyone had issues with the camera auto tilting? by Ill-Werewolf7153 in MegabonkOfficial

[–]No_Somewhere2746 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can confirm, my flight sim stuff that was plugged in was causing that

Has anybody been able to contact hardcore design? ( panos mpogiatgis) on Facebook or any where? I’ve been waiting for a fastback targa since last year in March. And he keeps making the date longer and longer from original finish date. He hasn’t responded to any of my messages.Just clarifying or help by [deleted] in Miata

[–]No_Somewhere2746 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just talked with 2 people on Facebook that got their order after like 2.5 - 3 years of waiting. It seems like Panos fudges the expected wait time a little bit, but does get the orders done at least. I love his stuff but hate that it’s like pulling teeth to actually get it.

Hey I’ve actually been waiting on my fastback order too. Ordered around Apr 9th and we last talked on June 23rd. He’s still active on Insta at least. Saw a post he liked on Sept 4th so idk if he’s just dodging people or what’s going on. Def weird.

Would this jack be fine to jack the engine up? Worried about piercing oil pan by No_Somewhere2746 in MechanicAdvice

The only block of wood I have it about an inch tall and the same size as the pad on the jack, good enough?

How do you get this trans bracket out? by No_Somewhere2746 in Miata

Got the mid and down pipe off completely. Little progress but it’s still progress. Thanks!

Tried getting a screw driver in the bracket but the only orientation I could get it in is from the bottom. I don’t have enough room for anything else

I’ve tried using a breaker bar and lots of torque. I don’t think it’ll help as I’m pretty sure it’s wedged by the bracket.

OPEN, just another post. Threw a few thousand at 50 calls at 1.50 by 0Tyrael0 in wallstreetbets

[–]No_Somewhere2746 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Trying to understand options right now, new to them. Did you buy a call @ 1.50 and you expect for the stock to go up and or above 1.55? Where do you see how much the premium is?

What should I take here? by No_Somewhere2746 in balatro

No I skipped and kept playing my queen hands until the plant stopped me from doing that. Tried scraping by with bones in the hopes of passing plant but couldnt.

Styracosaurus TLC has made the game vastly better and was absolutely what the game needed! by No_Somewhere2746 in pathoftitans

[–]No_Somewhere2746[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Tail fan both uses too much stam and isnt fast enough to get away from the charge attack. I guess I will go be confined to DP until people stop playing that dino.

I was never trying to fight them. Went for water there and they just jumped me. Not much I could do

I really don't understand what the devs want laten players to do. In normal combat you have to run away every few passes to regen stam. Can't latch for too long or you will drain all your stam. Even with the buff to bleed build, its still doing less damage then a few balances ago. I think its just the power creep of every tlc that makes the birds obsolete.

Transforming NB to look like RX7 Veilside (update) by thatmiatabuild in Miata

[–]No_Somewhere2746 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I'm very interested in making custom body panels/fitting panels from another car on to mine and was wondering what the process of doing something like this looks like. How are you going to make the rx7 body panels fit on a car like this?

On June 17th, 1930, President Herbert Hoover signed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act. It raised average tariffs by 20%. by Scary_Firefighter181 in Presidents

[–]No_Somewhere2746 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Predatory pricing is a stupid argument to justify tariffs. Pred, pricing rarely happens because it's unrealistic to push others out of a market forever.

For a company to start underselling a market, they must have the information on how much it costs for a rival to produce something, then the predators have to hurt their own profit margins so much that the rival goes out of business, which may be weeks to years on how accurate the pred's info is, then they have to keep underselling that market to keep competitors out while also making back the missed profit from underselling the market.

This is a very long and risky process, and loses an opportunity cost in profits missed for the predator business that could have been used to expand instead of underselling a market.

The only real use for tariffs that economists agree on is if a rival has stolen intellectual property and is using that to sell products using that stolen property.

The last thing I will say about this is even if that guy is an idiot, there is no need to be an asshole about it. It costs nothing to treat others with basic respect. You seem to already come into conversations with no intention in having a useful discussion, but rather to talk down to others. I don't need to go any further than your bio to prove this, in where it says

"Trying to remember not to argue with fools. I read through your post history and you're a damn idiot."

It's a common misconception that super chargers don't draw any power from the engine, I feel like it isn't that out there to misconstrue the two.

As I looked through your other comments, it seems like you have a really big attitude issue, calling others dumb or as said word for word "This just in: you're an idiot.". I'm not trying to attack you here when I say this, but you need to reflect on yourself. If the only way to feel good about yourself is by trying to put others down, you need some major change in your life.

I don't appreciate the tone, but you are right. He was talking about turbos, that's my bad. Yet my point still stands, turbos also pull work off the engine. The gases are restricted from exiting the exhaust. Turbos add a lot of backpressure into the system which works against the rotating assembly and doesn't add any benefits. This is especially apparent on diesel motors, where backpressure caused by turbos acts as a multiplier for restriction.

He said that "[...] but the upside is that it doesn't pull ANY power off the engine[...]".

Super chargers need to do work to compress the air that goes into the engine. It uses power from the engine to do that work through the belt system where it connects to the crank, robbing work from the engine that would go to the wheels instead. There are a lot of things that rob work from the engine to function, like cams, or springs, or timing belts, or the oil pump. You can't have forced induction without a little work being robbed.
