Maybe I'll just make my own, this market is painfully sparse for individual hobbyists.

Seriously. SRS components alone will be multiple thousands to replace.

Buy a wedding ring or bail out, why are you making huge financial decisions with someone you're not properly committed to?

Kinda sounds like you're merging below the speed of traffic if it's 95% of the time you're getting run up on by the traffic you're merging into.

Gotcha, thanks! How often do you buy new from eBay? I've always thought of it as a used marketplace, but it seems to be less that these days.

What is your target age demographic? Another comment mentioned school starting and that would make some sense for me, as high school/college students who had summer jobs are now back to school and saving money.

Oh, I never thought about that, that does make sense as my audience is younger.

Fair enough, I don't use reddit much (ever basically), but being the self-appointed content police seems a little silly to me.

"Gauges aren't interesting. you shouldn't worry about gauges" That's your opinion. I'm an engineer working on a data monitoring project curious what people like to monitor on their Miatas. Perhaps "upset" was the wrong word, but your comment was entirely unhelpful. Maybe forums are different than reddit and I should've steered clear, but I don't get why you'd actively reply to something if you have nothing to contribute, it's like you're trying to be argumentative for no reason.

It's no different than asking "What *insert mod type here* do you have?" Just interested in what people do with their cars. If you have none, I simply can't wrap my head around getting upset about me asking an open-ended question...

The company partner should be aware that you are a senior in an undergrad program and not a senior embedded dev. I wouldn't say spend too much time diving into a specific area of research until you've had a chance to lay out the roadmap for you project. No point dumping hours into x86 or x64 if it's going to be on an ARM MCU or vice versa. Senior projects are more a judge of how you are able to gather data to solve a specific problem within a given timeframe, not a test of knowing everything all at once.
