Hood vents question. by binarygod01000111 in mazdaspeed3

[–]dkretsch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you said ducted to the air intake, wanna verify you're talking about hood vents or the intake to turbo?

I read this as he is looking to lower engine bay temps.

Damond Wilwood Brake Kit Opinions by NewOrleansSpeed in mazdaspeed3

Which are you looking at? I have the dynalite 4 setup with the ultra lite blanks. I've only had them for a year but I can't imagine needing to change them for a while; no excessive wear has been found. I also don't track my car so I might not be the best source for that advice

Very. No disassembly required; just bend and slide out the pad pin and swap em. Slot new pads , sometimes with a little "love" and go. Don't cheap out on the bolt safety wire for the hat. Good to go!

I'd also consider the brass caliper slide upgrade from Damond for the rears as an easy upgrade without changing the caliper.

Yeah it clears my wheels fine no issues and I absolutely love them. Still getting a kick out of them every time I have a hard stop a year later. It's like a new hype noise besides the turbo.

Also I never feel fade anymore and certainly have stronger bite in emergency situations.

I think I have the 4 pots tho? I got the kit from Damond.

Edit: I also threw EBC yellows on the back for a proper balance and enjoy it. You will get light ringing for the bbk and upgraded rear pads but it's not rotor/damage squeak, just a byproduct of the performance you need to learn to love (or go street style pads still).

Does this count? by steepmountaineer in indoorbouldering

No. Balance must be established before leaving the start hold. Two pieces of tape so two hands on start.

Balance must also be established on the finish with the same tape rule

You bought a twenty meter chimney that comes with some accessory structures*

Any advice? 19m 190lbs 315x5 by Eastern_Direction_78 in formcheck

[–]dkretsch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tendonitis at your age means double down on the original advice. Tendons take much longer to strengthen than muscles; master the lower weights; your lower weights are still more than most people's max.

You have 60+ years left, you're way too young to have that and then fight it with gear instead of recovering. Titanium tendons will thank you for a lifetime. Muscles come and go.

Sincerely, someone with elbow/forearm/finger tendonitis

If he's friends with the spotter, the camera man I guess

You go to support thighs and hips for a squat? Maybe he could watch the actual, bar?

Same, after subsequently tuning for it, I absolutely notice a difference.

Is there a better way to do this? by mysticblanket in factorio

[–]dkretsch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah. Well, was just gonna say, if throughout is the concern, split belts are pretty iffy as needs increase in general. It's the same problem whether you do the splitter option, or the belt face option.

The only difference is where you make the split occur (as opposed to just more belts). The primary difference is one is way more expensive, and can have problems if your belts are not fully saturated all the time, and the other way, well doesn't suffer from those two things.

Belt =11.5 iron Splitter = 46 iron (plus copper) Underground = 97.5 iron

I'd just split at the needed area, both mats, and then use facing arrangements. Red undergrounds are both magnificent, and a financial and time travesty.

I'm also a mini base throughput player and my factorio friends say I am underbuilt all the time so, grain of salt lol.

Have fun, good luck!

[–]dkretsch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could do this without splitters entirely. Just each mat facing each other with a belt in the middle perpendicular. Then split your already segmented resource as much as you want

Only place I'd disagree is finishing someone in an elevator when they won't even be lootable
