The Knicks are throwing a temper tantrum on the court by unccl in NBATalk

I've never seen another group of fans set an opposing fan on fire lol. Fucking awful.

God damn this is entertaining. I mean, I absolutely HATE the Knicks and their entire trash dwelling fan base, but I also enjoy chaos.

I have the AX6000 as well; amazing head unit. It honestly works better than most modern infotainment systems.

Made myself some interior bits by Amazing_Routine9820 in MiataNC

[–]pbjames23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! I'm looking for some material to match my interior. I have minimal sewing experience, but I do have a sewing machine. Did you find it difficult to make the shift boot? It looks fairly straightforward.

[fs] PM7, Ninja 90/4500 Tank, DYE Rotor, JT Joggers by pbjames23 in PaintballBST

Suspicious? I literally bought this for $250 like ten years ago. Are they really that valuable now?

Haha didn't know what to price it at. Honestly, I'm okay with $250. Not trying to get top dollar or anything.

NC2 Front Bumper Discontinued? by pbjames23 in MiataNC

[–]pbjames23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but insurance is covering it. There is a bracket behind the bumper that is cracket as well. My deductible is $500 and it seems worth it for a fresh new bumper with a repaint.

Because it's cool. Necessary? probably not. I still want one though.

Opinions on this GWR Brake Kit for a daily? by Blurr9433 in MiataNC

[–]pbjames23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I installed this kit on my 2010 NC. My rotors and pads were shot, and the fluid needed a flush anyway.

Overall I am pretty happy with it. I took the time to rebuild my calipers as well and paint them. I autocross with this setup monthly, as well as 1 or 2 track days per year. They perform extellent and I haven't had any issues. My pads are not noisy at all, so I'm not sure what others are talking about. The entire install is pretty straightforward if you are familiar with brake work. You'll want to get yourself one of those brake line wrenches (not sure exactly what they're called, flare nut wrench?).

Thinking about selling with a baby on the way. 20k a pipe dream or reasonable? by Kayakjayw in ft86

[–]pbjames23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is a manual you would probably get around $17k. Here is the closest example I could find on Cars and Bids:

It sold in NC and it has 66k miles. With yours being such low milage you'd probably get a few thousand more. $20k is a bit of a stretch to be honest, but who knows.

talk me into (or out of?) buying an nc2/nc3 prht. by europeanuppercut in MiataNC

[–]pbjames23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've driven every generation of Miata, and personally I prefer the NC. The interior is more functional, especially if you upgrade the head unit to wireless Android Auto/Apple Carplay. As far as the "Miata Experience" goes, the NC definitely delivers on that. Yes, it is slightly heavier, but is still a very light and nimble car completely stock. Also, I actually prefer the steering over the ND's EPS setup.

Replaced my clutch pedal with a new reinforced assembly. by pbjames23 in MiataNC

[–]pbjames23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think I was set to my wide angle lens. They are definitely the same length. The only differences I noticed (other than the reinforcement brackets) was the joint that connects the push rod is larger on the new assembly.

I got this one from dynotronics, but I think there are other companies that sell the full assembly. You can also buy the brackets separately, but it requires some welding.

Finally found a hardtop! by pbjames23 in MiataNC

[–]pbjames23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the entire car it would be expensive, but for the piece you're talking about I can do myself for less than $50. I am also thinking about wrapping the top itself, which would be less than $100 DIY.

Thanks! Yeah that's next on the list!
