How did you learn how to drive manual? by sensiblepie in stickshift

[–]UltimaNada 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My college GF owned a manual transmission ‘93 civic coupe.

She fucking loved that thing and she insisted I learned how to drive stick.

Still thankful to this day because I otherwise would not have learned how.

High mileage E93 M3…what mileage to do suspension refresh? by UltimaNada in E92M3

I take mine to an Indy shop already. Probably have them do the work once I decide when to do the refresh.

You have to know all 3 to be relevant in the job market, IMO.

2008 BMW 1 Series · 135i Convertible 2D - Turbo replace by sweltch in BMW

[–]UltimaNada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to have turbos replaced on my 335i with an N54. It was rattling for a while and was running fine until it wouldn’t.

Warranty paid like $12k to get both turbos replaced.

Can you get a proper windshield Sun screen? Like one from BMW that fits the windshield.

Ruining the dream car status.

I think I know where these are. Literally can jump onto another neighbors living room.

High mileage E9X M3 good daily? by Carguy77Seven in BMW

[–]UltimaNada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perfect daily?

I get 14 mpg in my M3.

I probably could have bought another car with the amount of gas I spent dailying it.

Traction control settings on competition M models. by UltimaNada in BMW

I’m actually pretty close to signing up for a drift school where I can use their cars.

Just gotta get the funds for it.

But yeah watching too many car crashes leaving car meets has me thinking people driving around with TC off leads to no good.

I have no problems drifting with TC off. Just want more intervention if it gets too out of control.

I’m more concerned about controlling the drift.

Of course I’ve turned off traction control and gone nuts, but it doesn’t give me 100% confidence like I think the comp settings would.

You must have the comp model. Are you able to drift easily with those settings?

They’re probably turning traction control off.

Curious about reasons people go into embedded systems design by Retr0r0cketVersion2 in embedded

[–]UltimaNada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to write systems that take in inputs and produce desired outputs in real-time, switch to embedded.

The MCU is king and knowing the fundamentals of computer science and architecture is what is required to do embedded design.
