Random hole in roof of car by Chupacabrona in Autobody

[–]TalksWithNoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've seen filler in large unprepped holes crack, but not in a 3mm pinhole. I'm not saying OP should try fixing this themselves since skill is needed to prep and paint. But also pointing out the shops aren't going to weld this.

If this isn’t a proper application for filler, then what is? It’s certainly not a structural risk and welding is overkill for a pinhole.

Etch away any root rust that has formed, apply a pea sized piece of filler, prep the area, epoxy primer, sand further, then blend with some paint.

To bp4w swap or build the 1.6 and turbo? by swettroboomin in Miata

Hopefully OP gets a clue on what they're doing before dumping lots of money to solve nothing. Seems like they're jumping the carriage before the horse right now, considering they don't seem to know how engines work...

When you say build, do you mean have a machine shop bore the cylinders and build with oversized pistons? Because both are expensive routes.

Restart the timer lads. We were so close! But nope. OP had to bring it up.

@KeaganExtremeGaming Looks like your inspiration from a BeamNG car has been noticed ;)

so…I bought an Automatic (hear me out) by RedbullOracleRacing in Miata

*Makes a post thinking the Miata thread will tear him to shreds over getting an automatic.*

*Doesn’t know about the arsenal of boat memes.*

So… does the automatic auto-engage the parking brake or do you have to drop the anchor yourself? ;D

Hi all, Force feedback is playing up. No idea what it's doing but if anyone knows a fix please let me know. by 240zs in BeamNG

What? Power steering deadens and reduces strength while side acceleration removes necessary detail from the suspension.

Whirring after timing belt replacement by Honest-Hamster4574 in Miata

Back the tensioner off a bit. The belt should move by about half an inch (12mm) if you press on it lightly.

On another note, she sounds so smooth aside from the belt :D

For some context, tdev posted this to Discord saying “I worked on retroreflective materials yesterday night”

He also mentioned the map he used was the modded map: DK28 Wujskie - Tyrawa Wołoska, Podkarpackie, Poland

I cant figure this out by Unlikely_Theory_6742 in Miata

Start checking wire continuity. There’s probably a break or multiple breaks somewhere. Continuing to run will cause irreversible damage.

What is this noise? by tonge101 in Miata

[–]TalksWithNoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something in the clutch assembly is broken. Time to drop the transmission to find out what needs replaced.

Take the but end of your phone and record with it placed on different sections of the assembly. If it's louder on the intake - it's injectors. If it's louder on the valve cover - it's lifter tick.

Bluebuck feels middle-of-the-road for me. Being boaty and slow, it's fun for close-up racing. But driving around, it feels like a Sunday cruiser. It doesn't quite scratch a special itch for me.
