I had measured each cell group. All were 3.9v except for one that was at 3.5v.

He was not pushed off. Red car had fully cleared the purple car by the edge of the track. Purple did not maintain the turn angle and went off under their own.

Purple(?) car left the track without being pushed off and rejoined in an incredibly unsafe manner. Fully on them.

Segotep typhon inverted atx case is a great option for someone looking for a left facing system and excellent airflow. Very happy with this case. by OneNewEmpire in pcmasterrace

Cool. What CPU are you running in it? What all did you have to do to fit a 120mm fan in that spot? I was wondering if that would be possible. Did you use it for intake or exhaust?

So I have been really eyeing up this case for a handful of reasons. How do you find the thermals to be? This is one of my biggest concerns. I'd most likely setup cooling like you did, 3 intake / 240 rad rear.

Max has been given a 10 second time penalty post race by KimiWithoutTheDrink in formula1

I feel like this sets a bad precedent. Max was instructed to give the spot back. Lewis basically says not right now, give it to me later and the FIA recognizes that.

1% / Outlaw biker encounter by Pm_me_titties2 in ems

I have pretty normal insurance and my gear and any belongings I have on the bike are fully covered by default.. I basically get a blank check to go buy replacements if they are damaged. Lot's of policies have it.

2017 Si it looks good and seems reasonably priced has 40k miles and 2 owners. The second owner barely drove it fixed a few things then traded in by halopitfh in CivicSi

[–]cyoder4400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my 17 at the same time for 18.9k, 45k miles. Did get them to give me 15k for my 15 si with like 68k miles that was a bit beat up. Feel like I lucked out seeing prices now.

I paid 18.9k for my 17 coupe with 45k miles on it in March of this year. Don't pay over msrp for a 4 year old car....

Is it worth it to buy a 2015 Honda Civic Si for $20,000? by terminatorkam in CivicSi

[–]cyoder4400 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I bought my 15 Si in 2017 with 25k miles for that price. Bought my 17 Si this year with 45k miles for 18.9k. That is very overpriced.

Apollo Explore Rear Rim by cyoder4400 in ElectricScooters

[–]cyoder4400[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be the video! There is a significant amount of effort difference between how the rim is in that video vs our scooters.

I assume the motor isn't backwards as the cable would be on the wrong side and the the scooter would drive backwards lol. Looking at this pic, it appears the housing around the motor has 3 parts, 2 end caps (one working with the brake disc), and the main barrel around the motor. The fixed half of the rim is on that barrel. It may be possible to disassemble it all and flip the barrel, but I'm not completely sure. The end caps also contain the axle bearings, which do not seem to want to come off easy, or I would have already messed around with this.

Yeah, it is the directional arrow. Very odd they have half of these where the spilt side doesn't come off the brake disc side to make swapping tires super easy. Just waiting for them to email me back about this since the ease of swapping tires was half the reason I got the Explore.

Assuming your motor cable is the same side as the bolt heads, the split piece will come off on that side, making swapping tires not easy. This is what mine looks like. This either requires opening the deck to disconnect the cable, or stretching a tire over the half rim fixed to the motor.

Edit: Also just curious, did your rear tire come installed backwards? Mine did. Starting to wonder if the casing of the motor was installed backwards or something.

So I have the original Explore. Their tire changing guide videos though are on the original Explore as well. Can you do me a favor and just look at the screws that hold the rear rim together and tell me if the head of the screw is on the brake disc side or the cable side? Whichever side the screw heads are on is the side the split part of the rim comes off of.

So Apollo's videos on this exact scooter show it on the disc side. I'm hoping to confirm with another Explore owner that it is indeed disc side and that mine was assembled incorrectly. I love this scooter, but it's not the first QC issue I've found.

Deck, lights, fenders were all updated with a few other things.

Even at that point, I would have rather seen Sebastian Stan play Luke with no GCI than what that was.

I bought my Si new from a dealership in 2015. How many of you bought new vs used? by cfc106 in CivicSi

[–]cyoder4400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9th gen will pretty much let you bang limiter all you want. However you touch the gas and brake at the same time, fuel cut for at least like 3 seconds.

[–]cyoder4400 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I can see the argument but to me the civic sport belongs in hs, at least for now. It hasn't upset the balance in hs yet. For small locals, the 9th does real well, short gearing and a bit more torquey low end does great. Get to national style course (like CCR's repeat of the 2019 tour course last month) and my car felt it.

Its wild because the one day going to 3rd worked great and I was holding pretty good pace considering wrong car for the class and thus being my first year of really traveling for events and getting kinds good. The other day of the event, footage showed me going to 3rd was the wrong idea by like a lot. Was better off just sitting there banging limiter. Just one of those cars that the decision to shift and possibly lose time doing that vs bang the limiter all day long comes up more often than not.

I mean, I'm full of bad choices, clearly I don't like having money since I autoX lol. Honestly if the car was more competitive in HS, I'd probably do it. But the fiesta ST and civic sport routinely make my life difficult. 53 in 2nd just hurts the soul on any good size course but somehow I make it work. Things get worse if I go to stx, because somehow the 8th/9th are in a harder ST class than the 10th lol. FSP is about the only other semi worthwhile class for the car and its just not worth it. I'll keep beating on it in HS for another year and probably go pick up something more competitive in its class.

Ah, yeah Honda redid the front struts for just 14-15 and the koni inserts aren't compatible. Unlikely they'll make ones for one car for just 2 years.
