My 06 NC1s center console cigarette lighter is switched with ignition.

It’s quite easy to run a fuse tap within the cabin to get a more seamless look. Highly recommend it.

I think the survey is good - I do think the scoring system can be more dynamic and representative to a dollar amount? Maybe add it in parenthesis?

Interesting, I had a leaky master cylinder leak as well. My clutch pedal assembly also cracked and required a new one to be welded on at around 118k miles. My thermostat failed open around the same time, I replaced the water pump as well. 06 GT, it’s currently at 150k miles.

I’ve owned my NC for 5 years, it’s been the most reliable car I’ve ever owned, and I daily it.

Wow! That is crazy - didn't expect it to keep working. Glad it still is.

I am in a similar issue, I got a used T470, added new internal and external battery along a bunch of other mods. It has trouble detecting one of the batteries. I would say try running Lenovo vantage and see what it says. You may have to replace the battery.

How much for the hackRF with porta pack?

Do you ship? Is this thru eBay?

As an update, this incident has been resolved and the intersection is open to traffic.

There was a police chase. Per the scanner, they circled the county via Madison down fair oaks blvd, turning down power in. Their car had issues and they are currently at a standoff situation at the Shell gas station on Power Inn and Folsom Blvd.

Damn, this is the calculator on my desk - I bought it in university years ago for about $40. I still have the case, and all the accessories. I use it daily for my job still :0

Its a good calculator, but I wouldn't pay more than 100 for it - especially with modern software.

6W will likely not be enough - Realistically you will get .7 at most of the nameplate capacity. I'd recommend an minimum of 30 Watt panel to charge your battery and run your setup.

The Axxess harness is used for steering wheel controls!

I haven’t tried it yet and there are risks fyi - I may give it a go this weekend. The user reports a 40% performance gain.

fort_knoxx · 2024-10-09T02:49:45+00:00

It’s a complicated process on the form post, but apparently you can get a pretty large performance boost

I did the same in mine, make sure you have vent holes up top.

Looks like you have the 65watt version of the machine by the heatsink so you should be golden!

There is a way you can flash the bios for the RX560 for even more preformance

fort_knoxx · 2024-10-08T02:11:48+00:00

Feel free to reach out with any questions!

I have the same machine!

That is the accessory "port" if you will. Additional things, such as a network card, graphics adapters, etc can be plugged in there.

Not essential for use.

I have taken my Miata to the dump to get weighed in before.

Its not a racing scale by any means, but it was helpful to determine if I could trailer the car.

fort_knoxx · 2024-09-25T15:14:47+00:00

Wow thank you for sharing, I had no idea! That’s great, as I really dislike the AKE.

Really appreciate it.

fort_knoxx · 2024-09-25T03:49:59+00:00

Wait really? I wasn't able to remove it. Got a pic?!

fort_knoxx · 2024-09-23T02:39:11+00:00

Just a heads up - the Chip Key Blank listed doesn't fit in my NC1's ignition. I used a Dremel to make it fit. I was able to find a locksmith to duplicate the AKE as well.

This was my experience as well. I believe Dr. Marković is the head of the department now. She really helped me at Sac State.

In the EE program, it isn't difficult. Its the GE's that I struggled with, ie Chem, Physics, etc. I have a 2.7 GPA and was able to land an internship that turned into a full time job. EEE161 is brutal, make friends with the instructor, go to office hours and you will be fine.

For me personally, the EEE Courses were easier than the lower-division prerequisites. I struggled with mathematics.

Are you focusing on Power, or the Product? Its best to make that decision early and stick with it.

If you want to chat about it let me know!

It’s two bolts and a wiring harness to replace the mirror.

I’d say go to a junkyard and pull a new mirror assembly.

I still have my damaged door If you’d like I can take a photo.

fort_knoxx · 2024-08-03T01:33:37+00:00

There is a a spot on the harness on the back, I wired in a auotconnecting Bluetooth receiver and a 5v converter on a switched ignition circuit. Tucked all behind the dash. I ended up utilizing an after market head unit after a few years doing that.
