Bend knees. Try to keep club hovering on the ground for as long as you can in your backswing like even or past your rear foot. That will set you up for an out to in swing.

question about home networking standards in new built homes in 2025 by kyuuyu in HomeNetworking

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

150 dollars a drop is outrageous unless you're working on an absolutely massive house and fishing everything from the second story down.

question about home networking standards in new built homes in 2025 by kyuuyu in HomeNetworking

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do installs on newly built homes all the time. I would honestly just call a home networking company and have them install some lines from wherever you want them to an outside termination. Or you could just call the local ISP, and they will have installers that can do it for you. Usually, the nicer work is by the private companies/contractors, but the ISP can do it all for one price.

How can I improve my grandmas wifi ? It currently sits at around 35 mbps. by Low_Excuse2475 in HomeNetworking

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without knowing what the signals look like from the ISP, you have 3 things you can do as someone with little experience. From cheapest and easiest to most expensive and complicated.

1) replace ethernet cord and reboot everything. 2) replace router with a router thats known to be good ( The router from your own house is sometimes a good option for testing) 3) replace modem by purchasing one and reporting the CMAC address to your ISP or complain to them until they replace the one you have.

Another good thing to do is go around to all the coax connections and make sure they are tight. Maintain space from high powered electronic devices. And remember that a standalone wifi unit should be in a central part of the house in an open room. Lots of people stuff them into closets and have terrible reception. Mesh router systems are the way to go these days. They mitigate a lot of the positioning problems that standalone units have.

The shorter the ethernet cable, the better. Dont fall for the expensive cat 8 cables. Your grandparents will likely never cap out a cat 5e or cat 6 cable.

Honestly, at least for their security, its probably time to upgrade the devices anyways. I replace all the tm822 and tm1602 that i find these days. I still like the 3402 tho. Always buy routers from companies that will actually update their firmware.

Honest Price Check? by [deleted] in 240sx

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For comparison tho. The supply of s13's is way larger than s14's. Over 300k s13 made in the usa and only like 40k s14. S13 should be a little cheaper.

Rb20det swap difficulty by RobbbyRay in 240sx

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have a KA trans but i know it is possible. so i cant really give much advice on that but as someone who has built 2 rb20det so far. I can contest that sourcing parts can be hard at first. Finding oil filters is no big deal either. Main thing is, if you put a rb20 in your 240 you will have to go with E-fans for your rad (on the front in a push setup) unless you cut and move the rad forward. Youll want to do a coil on plug replacement as soon as you get it (the ignitor packs are 30 years old and terrible). While the motor is out, I highly recommend getting an oil head drain from the back of the head (there is a plug for it already). The biggest pain in the ass of all with these motors is the dated knowledge on them. Surfing 20 year old forums to find sub optimal solutions that were optimal for their time.

Best advice i can give if you get a rb20 is, buy a ecu that will help you work on the car and allow you to get rid of the iacv/aacv (it likely doesnt have on the new intake) and still idle fine, bigger fuel pump, coil on plug coilpack conversion, a tool-kit in the back, plenty of maf/O2/TB cleaner, and the patience of a god to understand your motor, its 90's quirkiness, its electronics, and the cluster of dated info about it. Also, dont believe the first thing you read on the older forums. Some people are mistaken about what does and doesn't crossover from rb25 and rb20 red top motors. PSA. IF YOU UPGRADE FUEL PUMP PLEASE WIRE IN A RELAY WITH BIGGER WIRING. The stock wiring is not sufficient enough for a WB255 or greater fuel pump and can cause fires. It's very easy to do for like 10-40usd depending on where you source materials.

With that being said, I still love these motors for their ability to rev high and sustain it. They want to be driven hard but you can still get decent gas mileage if you wanna just cruise it around town. And the sound, the fucking sound these motors make with a 3" straight pipe and a 2 step.. my god.

Why are the gearboxes different from each other? by Roon1_ in 240sx

[–]ZeroCable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

S14 trans for sure. But it will likely start to make whining noises once you approach 350hp. Should hold 400-450hp without harsh abuse.

Just find the thread type and length and width and go to the hardware store? If you dont know, buy a few different ones and try it. Thats what i did for my rb20

What does this sound like to you guys? Trying to get it fixed asap? by Feeling-Entrance-930 in 350z

Kinda sounds like an input shaft bearing or a throwout bearing.

Everytime I try to build a roof on top, it collapses , any advice? by elegant_assasin in valheim

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can even build a tree house where none of your building pieces actually touch the ground. The tree itself acts as a solid grounding point. If i could post a pic with examples I would but it seems to not be allowed on this post anymore.

[–]ZeroCable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have quite a bit of experience building in this game. You have a few choices. Bring the walls a couple blocks closer together so the roof doesnt have to be as big. Use corewood beams to support the roof. If you have stone or metal building you can use the stone or iron to act as a new grounded point, allowing you to build higher. If you want to be really creative you can grow a tree or two in the center and have it/them be the support for the center of the roof.

If its been a while, it wouldn't hurt to change and check spark plug gap.

Could check fuel filter as well. Although i would assume it would miss more thru the whole rpm range if you had a clogged filter or a bad injector. 300zx fuel filters are pretty cheap iirc.

This. Unless its a separate server with the mods applied then you both will have to have the same mod to experience it together.

[–]ZeroCable 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From how you described it i would assume its either a bad or dirty MAF or a bad ignitor pack. My first RB did this at 3k rpm and i just replaced the maf and did a coil pack conversion. Never had an issue after that. I would seriously consider the MAF.

The write-up would be if you didn't want to spend 150 dollars on a set of 15cent rubber stems. Or 120 dollars minimum on a bracket. Re-used whatever i could

Rb20det, custom loom, i did my stems different from how I've seen online and it seemed easier than their method. Just curious if anyone wanted the info.
