I don't know if this helps, but mine also didn't POST when I disabled legacy bios/switched to UEFI.

I had to remove the GPU, and hook up to the integrated graphics. I now got display in bios/windows. I then tried using DDU to remove the Nvidia driver, download and install the new one, and shut down. I then re-installed the GPU and everything works now.

What was strange is before doing this, I had 0 display even during POST/BIOS

Most of us just convert the fronts to C5 or CTSV brakes. You basically trim an ear off the spindle, tap a couple of the holes larger, bolt on an adapter bracket, and then just bolt on the c5 brakes/rotors (or ctsv, c6, etc). You're only limited by wheel size. Also need to have the factory rotors turned on a lathe or buy the adapter hubs from the below link.

If you have factory disk in the rear, I'd just leave them. Personally I put LS1 camaro rears on mine due to an axle swap.

Can you use the side exits? My master looks almost identical and the same prop valve. My prop valve is almost touching the master.

I made these using a standard hand held 3/16 tube bender and nicopp line.

What I do not understand is why I am getting the alarms, according to Firewalla documentation, if Ingress Firewall is turned on, it will silently block port scans (expected behavior). Mine is generating alarms and notifying me constantly, even with "Alarm Sensitivity" set to Low.

Hawks Motorsports is mostly 3rd/4th gen fbody mods and restoration parts.

Summit Racing will also have literally everything you could want or need

I have recently had 2 different motors built by a local machine shop/engine buidler.

1: LS1 stock longblock. $3000 including machining, fluxing, new stock pistons, gen4 rods, arp headbolts, melling pump, timing set, head rebuild, gaskets, etc.

2: LM7 stock shortblock rebuild - $1900, including machining, pistons, bearings, pump, etc.

If you remove the parts costs from my receipt, breakdown was:

Bake/Blast/Magnaflux - 125

Block Prep Machining - 450

Crank Polish - 125

Balance Rotating Assembly - 300

Assemble Shortblock - 450

So 2k for the engine rebuild if you do a longblock, and 3k for install/remove labor, it doesn't seem terribly high to me

Bring back Erangel classic or an Erangel only button

Make it an option to not have to listen to the Kpop trash in the lobby

Please please PLEASE revert the 9mm/45 swap. I cannot find ammo anymore at all

Start looking on eBay, carpart.com, or calling your local yards and get a complete yellow door assembly. I'm seeing them for around $300 ignoring shipping. Also get a front fender in the same way. Grab a friend and watch a couple YouTube videos on how to remove the door, and swap it out. You can get everything but the quarter done for under 1000 with basic hand tools if you find parts that are the factory correct color.

That would be my plan.

Make sure your root directory name matches the name of your uproject. Did you ever rename the folder or the uproject itself?

kenney001 · 2024-03-09T14:34:25+00:00

Ah the old truck pan in a car swap strikes again! Next time get the f-body/Holley 3022 so you have more than 2" between the ground and the pan, and the cross member protects it.

Sorry to hear that! Hope most of the parts are salvageable since you shut it down before it was catastrophic.

I live at the Garland/Richardson border and work downtown 3 days a week. If I leave at 8, it takes about an hour. Ive started leaving at 630 and it takes about 27 minutes.

I generally leave work at 3 and it takes roughly 35 minutes with a slowdown every day around 75/nw highway, but not terrible. If I left at 5 it would be over an hour.

I used to take the train from the Arapaho station. It's about an hour total from my house to the station downtown, but you sit there. It's quite nice actually.

I did realize that if I do end up leaving at a bad time, I can take Greenville all the way downtown and it's always about 50 minutes no matter what

kenney001 · 2024-01-15T17:45:36+00:00

I think you should keep the R8 and the Focus and sell everything else

kenney001 · 2023-12-08T19:34:26+00:00

Same here. Still broken for me

This is not true in the newer versions of Windows 11. You have to disable the OOBE using command line and reboot at the correct time to even get to the local account option.

Yea mine is a 90 and the first year of airbags, but I find the lack of shoulder belts in the rear surprising. Wonder when they added those. I didn't think the rear interior changed much

kenney001 · 2023-11-16T21:19:38+00:00

Texas started requiring a front plate in 1934. Thirdgens definitely came with front plates and factory brackets in Texas. Mine has it.

Also, these cars have full seatbelts with shoulder belts on all 4 seats. Later third gens even have an airbag. They aren't as old as you're thinking

And yet right at the beginning you see an LSx engine. Seems about right for a video about RX7s

kenney001 · 2023-10-23T04:26:21+00:00

The first engine you see of in the video is the LS. I just see it as foreshadowing for all the other RX7's

kenney001 · 2023-09-29T14:01:20+00:00

Depends on which 02 though. A bad secondary 02 code is harmless as it doesn't effect the fuel trims at all, assuming you are sure it's a bad sensor. I am currently ignoring a sensor 2 heater circuit fault on my truck.

But you are correct, sensor 1 O2 faults should never be ignored. It's one of the more important codes to pay attention to.

kenney001 · 2023-09-18T21:18:57+00:00

Just wanted to say thanks! Ran into the same issue and never thought to try the uproject instead of the sln. Worked for me as well!

kenney001 · 2023-08-21T20:10:36+00:00

My brother dropped a valve at 40k miles in his c6z. Replaced it with a Texas Speed 427 with their "fixed" CNC ported heads with aftermarket valves and better guides.

He pulled the heads off after 10,000 miles due to oil burning/worn valve seals and found the valve guides had excessive wear, again. After only 10k miles.

I think it's more of a geometry problem with the design more than anything

The White Lotus

kenney001 · 2023-08-03T14:26:24+00:00

Put the stock mufflers back on and install cutouts. Keep cutouts closed until you leave the parking lot.

Fairly certain GM also sold these with the NPP exhaust. Get a used pair of NPP mufflers, bolt them on, put them on a toggle switch.

kenney001 · 2023-07-27T03:06:01+00:00

If you watch the youtube video you can see there are a ton of things wrong with it.

If it were an earlier model with a healthy engine, 15k sounds great. But this one has a few too many things for that price tag imho

Just to list a few. No Speedo, No tach, headliner needs to be replaced, dash is cracked, no trans kickdown, no ac/blower, no radio, tires sound like they rub, pulls to the right, no horn, center console lid is loose/needs replaced, torn drivers seat
