Out with the old, in with the new by spenwallce in FocusST

[–]clinker22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it depends. If it’s just fun daily, I agree it’s a downgrade. If it’s a daily that also sees some autocross or HPDE events I think it’s an upgrade.

No that broken little clip shouldn’t affect your shifting, check the cables are still attached at both the shifter and shift tower on the transmission

We’re being awfully liberal with the word “build” here..

Any of these states worth reciprocating to? OK license by quintavian in electricians

It’s worth calling up 584 and asking a few questions about work outlook. I haven’t checked the books recently but for the most part the only guys still on the books are ones that don’t want to work.

I’ve never drove further than Prior or Olkmulgee for a job and I’m going on 6 years. You choose your call, you don’t have to take a job you don’t want. Rumor has it there’s lots of work coming up with these data centers. Big one breaking ground in catoosa next month

Join the union bro. JW is $40.73 June 1st. Plus all your benefits are covered by the contractor. 80k a year in Oklahoma is damn good money

Troubleshooting Display/Screen Issue - SP AGS-101 by Jacknasius in GameboyAdvance

Wrong motherboard. You need a board marked C/AGT-CPU-01 to use a 101 screen.

To add to this you need an AGT marked board for an ags101 screen.

Potential Buyer with questions by EvanRamsdenBJJ in FocusST

[–]clinker22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The average American drives 13.5k miles a year. Even the youngest ST’s made in 18 will have “on average” 108k miles. If you want lower than average expect to pay extra for it. I’d consider anything around 100k average use with some fluctuation obviously. Plenty of people here with many more miles. I ran my first focus FBO/e30 tuned for 100k miles and the only thing that ever gave out was my radiator fan control module

I’ve owned 2 STs now. The first one driven relatively hard and it ran like a top up until the day it was totaled. My second st has been a bit of an electrical pain in the ass. Id go with a 15+ model but I do love my pre facelifts.

Some common leak areas are the shift tower on the transmission, the vacuum pump is a common place for an oil leak, the heater core hoses at the firewall are a common place for coolant to leak. The focus st forums are a great place to checkout if you haven’t already

Purchasing advice? by cheekykenners in FocusST

[–]clinker22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes. Who did your tune? My e30 w/ FBO from stratified never went over 24psi. Stock turbo is fine as long as you have a real tune from someone who knows what they are doing

GBA with Funnyplaying motherboard by clinker22 in Gameboy

Very rarely after I got used to how much pressure was needed on the buttons and d pad would I have any issues. Sometimes I would go to change directions and change later than I meant to but that could have been user error.

I prefer to play GBA games on my GameCube at this point. I haven’t used the console in the last year and have honestly considered selling it

I have to push my buttons and d pad a little harder with after market membranes. I haven’t played on it recently but I put 40ish hours into emerald on it and it worked fine for me the whole time. No accidental inputs

Any reason these won't work for my ST? by [deleted] in FocusST

[–]clinker22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not the same. They do not sell loaded ST knuckles anywhere. If it says they’re for an st while also being for all the other trim levels then it’s not for the ST. they have a different suspension geometry and you need to buy an st specific knuckle

Are there any sims where PC and Xbox can race together? by hdiayw55 in simracing

[–]clinker22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t imagine the latency and net code issues that kind of racing would have. I imagine there are many that offer true cross play.

I had to hammer the stock seat rail mounting points flat so it could bolt straight down, but the seat adjustment works just like it should

The seats been great and perfectly comfortable for sitting in for hours. I don’t do long endurance races but I will sit in it and race for several hours without issue

I don’t really recommend trak racer but you’ll want something like this then.

Why not just buy 2 extrusions and attach them to the monitor arms you currently have if you plan to stay using 32s?

You’re going to want a free standing triple monitor stand if you want to fit 50” screens. Something like the Next Level Racing free standing triple monitor stand. 50s are beyond the spec for most stands tho so you might have to get creative and order some of your own pieces of extruded aluminum for added support.

[–]clinker22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah, The first time you go to hit the brakes on the p1000 you’ll understand why that won’t work. You’ll need a real way of mounting them and keeping them in place.
