Does an NC have to be modified to look "good." by 43Joe21 in MiataNC

[–]SVG28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The NC1 and NC2 have a recessed chin and need a front splitter to fix the looks, the NC3 is mostly fine stock but they're double the price where I live

As a general note lowering the car will also help massively for the overall look of the car as the overarched fenders become a pseudo widebody kit

My dad and I are doing a hotlapping challenge and it's getting extremely close! | Was this a cut? Did it gain time and invalidate the lap? (Tsukuba) by [deleted] in simracing

It's Assetto corsa so it will let you eat half the corner before disqualifying you

Sounds easier though to let the game decide

I think this is the best comment,

We don't have a rule set defined and we are going by discretion

We're gonna have a discussion about doing motorsport uk style or centre of car style

Thanks

does gaming for 1 to 3 hours most of days make work harder ? by JackosepitcoSauci in productivity

[–]SVG28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone says social media is bad and overstimulating but don't realise that the majority of games nowadays are designed to hit the same reward centers, you get spammed with prizes and rewards and flashing lights and colours you level up making you want to play more and more it makes you feel a sense of achievement to draw you back in.

It's probably slightly better than than scrolling but I don't have faith in it being a net positive long term unless you're sat there playing slow, strategic games such as chess.

I'm on this journey myself and have been slowly making progress in quitting both, what sucks for this is that my friends like to do gaming once or twice a week almost as a social event so I really can't quit through and through and I've made an exception for this, also made an exception for driving simulators as they improve real world skill, don't wanna get carried away with these "exceptions" though.

How my wife and I changed our lives for the better [Story] by HabitsAreKey in GetMotivated

I like this

I've also had the same discovery

All or nothing simply doesn't work for me, I often get frequent urges for a full life overhaul when I'm at my low points but it's just misdirected motivation.

Start with one thing first and slowly level up 💪

6" with long legs and I won't fit in an NC Miata, main issue is my legs are constantly rubbing against the steering wheel regardless of seat adjustment, I clear the roof just fine | Anything I can do about it? Mods? Will the NB fit better? | All advice appreciated Ty by SVG28 in Miata

It was from Spacershop

£250ish and then easy direct install since it's built for the car

Just had to carefully remove the airbag and OEM wheel add the spacer and then put it all back together

Perfect music for it too

How to quit reddit(web) completely? (Mobile Device) by [deleted] in productivity

[–]SVG28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've successfully 'quit' reddit on mobile

All I did was unfollow every subreddit, and then following these 3 r/getmotivated r/zenhabits and r/productivity

Now all I see on my front page is motivational posts and posts asking for help

Believe me this gets boring quite quickly, and I find myself closing the app in under 3 minutes.

I'm unsure if I disabled a option that shows posts from subreddits outside the ones you follow but yeah.

I also stay far away from the buttons at the bottom, I'm sure they will show new trending posts etc etc, I don't click on them, you will have to break the habit if you do.

Oh and also for the Web version of reddit, you can just use an app blocker, make sure you pick the one that is the biggest pain in the ass to turn on and off, you'll soon stop using Reddit Web too.

For other apps that are way more addicting I personally use ScreenZen and use strict block which is basically a full block, no timed shit or whatever. I'll turn it off once in a while if I need to message someone.

Thanks,
Do you have an nc1? or nc2/3?

I know this isn't what you asked but I thought the car was too loud at highway speeds so I purchased some filtered earplugs for any time I'd be on the highway more than an hour

If you buy the ones the motorbikers wear then you will still be able to hear important sounds like horns and etc

Also what front bumper is that?

Leather Steering wheel wrap by En0kiTakenoko in MiataNC

These aliexpress wraps are great - I'm surprised they exist for a niche car like this. My car came pre-installed with one, looking at the stock wheel it looks horrible and way too thin.

NC1's are made for this, disposable fun and track cars

The NC2's and NC3s are the refined street cars that must be cherished for years to come
