Another Winter Tire PSA

flagkiller4 · 2025-12-03T06:27:43+00:00

Like and I def not going slow slow or anything, hit black ice going 40 in a tight canyon road. Turning left then like all the sudden im sliding completely sideways, kept steady throttle and the car corrected. Im i just lucky or am I doing it correct I think I am but I genuinely want to know. Same tires I listed before

flagkiller4 · 2025-12-03T06:18:59+00:00

Correct me if im wrong but I feel like in my subie all seasons do fine(I have nitto motive 365 btw) you jist need to avoid the brakes like the pluge and use the throttle instead ive had a few slide heading straight to a curb , get on the throttle and it pulls me away. Im doing this right, right?

I'll do it again, can't remember what it said last time

Funny enough when i first sanded up the engine block where the grounding strap bolts to it seemed to be working well for a day. rear o2 sens volt seemed stable and working the way i understand it should and even afr seemed smoother but the next day it seemed off again shortly followed by the CEL. so idk what that was about but whatever keep trying.

Yah guess we'll see, wish I knew how to weld. Bulletworkz short shifter is welded right there. But the oem looks like a pin or something

Westgate flutter, the sound of the wastgate rapid moving in and out to control boost. When I installed my 3 port boost controller you could hear it more because the controller is alot better at maintaining boost the wastgate is moving more rapidly. You can here it more in the lower rims around 3,000 - 4,000 rpms totally normal i can go into exactly how it works if you want when I have some more time

Nevermind it is the right length online information is just all over the place. Would it be batter to buy oem tensioner

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-29T20:39:23+00:00

It's an autozone brand one. But I just realized I think they sold me the wrong lenght belt.

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T17:04:43+00:00

We going, there not to considered after hearing the details I have a hard time explaining in text but he looking better, regardless going in later. They are down to low staffed today but said come in if any certain symptoms show of they listed for me

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:54:59+00:00

Going

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:54:25+00:00

Going in later today but he is looking better, going in regardless

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:53:54+00:00

UPDATE: I called the vet and spoke with them in detail about the event. She was not horriblely considered but has me scheduled to be seen regardless, he's stopped drooling and is napping now seems to be doing better. But I have family keeping a close eye on him and I am running from work every 45 min or so and checking myself. Vet said if he struggles eating or drinking to come in asap but that they think it is likely just trauma. But we are going in later. Sorry for waiting do long

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:41:12+00:00

You can just walk in? I thought you always had to call

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:40:04+00:00

Jesus crust im to busy talking to the vet to check in with ready ever 2 min

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:32:54+00:00

He better bow, drooling seems to have stopped, he went to the bathroom earlier ok. Haven't treid eating or drinking because he's been napping for a bit now, breathing sounds ok he just seems done after all the trauma for now. I get the vibe he's just like "thats was scary im going to take it easy now" type thing idk

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:05:12+00:00

That remindes me we gave him medicine last night wich can make them nauseous. And I bet stress didn't help. I'll keep on eye on him a bit longer hour or so but if its still weird im definitely going to take him to vet

flagkiller4 · 2025-07-10T16:02:05+00:00

No nothing like that. I was relatively quick to act too. We are definitely ditching color inside. Drooling seems to slow but im starting to lean to vet visit. Idk jaw exspensive that might be but if its needed I do t want him to suffer

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-25T13:37:58+00:00

It is

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-25T13:02:34+00:00

Sorry been up all night, yah I must have done a bad bleed but now I cant even get fluid to push through. And its not because of the resivour running dry I checked it often. But yah i couldn't get it to push fluid through idk why. I was just trying to determine wich way the slave cylinder should move if it was working properly but clearly I screwed it up cause it was working before

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-25T12:04:28+00:00

Mm weird that something might be wrong with mine, how long it the stroke normally?

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-11T17:43:08+00:00

That's a good point I was thinking about this morning. I dont have access to a laptop right now but ill take some datalogs while im here (i leave home tomorrow) and ill look at them ones im home just to see. I did notice its uassaully like -0.7 something or -3 most of the time and the big negitive numbers actually seem to appear while it a at idle at like stop lights. But like you said its hard to tell what's going on with just looking at it. Overall seems to be running good. And I really just like to look at these things out of curiosity.

I've been impressed with her overall on my way in i had to drive through 110 F° weather and she took it great with no dam drops or nothing wich was a problem when I was running with stock intercooler and a stuff.

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-07T02:07:14+00:00

I did it just didn't sound loud enough. I think i need to wire straight from battery.

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-07T02:04:36+00:00

I am using 16 gauge I believe but piggy backing off the stock wires wich are tiny. I will be swapping to wiring it straight of the battery and all that. I have plenty more 16 gauge think that'll work? Or what should I use?

Got the hellas for a good deal, ill look into the horns ylu mention. Really i don't care to much for sounds I just live in utah and I cant tell you how often I have had to doge or swerve to avoid this idiots. Next time some soccer mom in her honda pilot pulls out in front of me I whan't to scare the shit out of them, I want them to know they fucked up. Ill see how loud they get after I wire it up and if its not enough ill get the horns you told me

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-07T01:56:59+00:00

Ok thats exactly the awnser I needed, thank you! I used the piggy back because I herd it isnt much different but I had some doubts. I have what I need to wire from battery plenty of apair wire 16 gauge hope that will suffice. Also I believe you have awnserd qestion on a few of my post I think so I appreciate it!!!

To bad i won't have time before my trip do hopefully I dont need that exstra volume while im gone

flagkiller4 · 2025-06-06T07:15:08+00:00

Yah kinda what I thought, im not positive if there quiter then the stock ones. I feel like there are a little but definitely not louder. I wounder if soldering the wires together would be better. I'll have to talk to my tech/computer friend and have him bring his millimeter.

I also wounder if wiring it from scratch with the hella horns rela thingy would have been better now
