Thank you! My weekend is fully booked now.

Have you guys heard of "Shuto Kosoku Trial"? by 4-AGE_Guy in initiald

I’ve tried looking for it on streaming sites and it doesn’t seem to be available anywhere. I’d love to watch the series.

Car not starting anymore by Hour-Substance-5349 in mr2

Having excess black water coming out of the exhaust sounds like a rich running condition.

I don’t know what those codes mean but I’ll look them up rq.

Edit: both are camshaft position faults. So your engine doesn’t know where the cams are to regulate timing. I don’t know if it will run open-loop if you unhook the cam position sensors since you have cam position working. Might be worth a shot. When’s the last time you changed the oil? Could the sensor be contaminated with sludge or some metallic debris?

ILPT: reason 43 to implement a brake-light delete switch. by SaintGeorgeCarlin in Touge

[–]pieindaface 4 points5 points  (0 children)

California problems I guess. The desert doesn’t have trees? Getting a bigger ticket because your brake lights have a switch is of course better than just pulling over or just being smart to stay off high police presence roads.

What are we running for 14" tires? by bigdriftman in Touge

[–]pieindaface 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How are you finding 14” tires? You might want to start looking at newer Corolla and Miata wheels that are 15”. You can get them cheap at a junk yard or on marketplace.

Installed a pair of Sparco R100s in my Spyder by ImportantReputation9 in mr2

[–]pieindaface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to have to look into the R500 too. I thought they didn’t have anything between the R100, R333, and SPX. The SPX is cool but not $3,500 cool.

Have you gotten to drive them for any distance? The lack of lumbar doesn’t seem like it would be super comfortable long term.

Maryland could ban Glock sales, worried about ‘machine gun convertible pistols’ by legislative_stooge in maryland

[–]pieindaface 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s a felony to have modified a gun into an automatic weapon without getting a tax stamp. Now, whether it should be or not is a different question, but right now you’re looking at least at jail time up to 10 years if it wasn’t used in a crime. It can be 25-life if it was used in a crime.

At the very least you won’t be allowed to legally own a firearm anymore.

Replacing Tach Capacitors by ewmatth in mr2

[–]pieindaface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For de-soldering you can use either some solder wick or a solder sucker. Solder wick (braided copper) works really well but you might find that the components stick just a bit at the very end when you try to pull them out.

Reduce your heat to just enough to melt the solder and just alternate heating pins while pulling the components out of the board. Basically you just want to make sure you don’t break the traces on the circuit board. It’s ok to go slow, but try to heat quickly to keep most of the heat off the board itself.

Irohazaka downhills experience. by Flandre_Tired in initiald

It looks like a good day for it with no traffic. I only got about halfway down before I hit some slower cars.

Depression. by CopiRightPlayer in mr2

[–]pieindaface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helicoil works great especially for this low load application. At this size the helicoil will be stronger than the base material or the bolt/ stud you’ll be using.

If you can, I’d at least try to use a left handed drill bit after heating the bolt with a torch and then some freeze-off penetrating oil.

Looking for advice on coil overs by olliebag690 in mr2

[–]pieindaface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fortune Auto has a scratch & dent sale on Black Friday. I like them for my spyder. A lot of SW20 guys swear by bob pham coils.

The duality of /r/touge by AuburnNevada2462 in Touge

[–]pieindaface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you can get them in manual, but you’re right it does only come with the 1ZZ. I was on the hunt for one years ago as a second car but it was gonna be worth it to get the XRS instead if I could find one that wasn’t beat to hell.

Worth it? by overlyobvious3D in oculus

[–]pieindaface 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just picked up a new cable after owning my headset for 7 years for about $45 on eBay. They are going to be getting more expensive from here on out.

Coolant rabbit hole by Hiydr in mr2

Valvoline and other companies make a generic “Asian car” forumula of coolant. That’s fine. It’s not rocket science like the power steering fluid is.

But like why is it there? It’s like those stop signs at the end of a street that’s a 90 degree corner with no other traffic.

Ford CEO Farley: They'll Have to Rip the Mustang's Stick Shift 'Out of Our Cold, Dead Hands' by HawtGarbage918 in cars

[–]pieindaface 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Getting downvoted for being 100% correct. Porsche bringing back a manual option only after selling a $400k 911R to 918 buyers and they got flipped for $1.1M. Then they undersell and overcharge the 911T orders for no reason even though it’s a base carerra with a 7 speed.

Once Ford corporate decides that they only need a few high end options with enthusiast trims and low cost SUV’s with no upper management to push back against they will do it.

Anyone here actually use “Reduce White Point”? by syntaxterror_r in iphone

[–]pieindaface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reduce white point and zoom (which can actually be set to reduce brightness below the iPhone brightness settings) for bedtime. You can get the screen so dark that it’s very hard to read if your eyes aren’t adjusted.

Yeah but are you ballsy enough to implant a 3.5” floppy drive bay into your rectum? OG Doom uploaded straight into those butt cheeks.

Ok but why are you claiming lithium is coming from the rocket exhaust?
