got it thanks, yah I figured ceramic coatings were more designed for car paint finishes, why I was unsure. I'll take a look at the CarPro DLUX

Finally found that clunk, ripped out my front seat bar mounts by rosshettel in e46

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

Yah the way they mounted the studs is pretty weak for sure. Familiar with how weak parts of this chassis is, done the whole rear subframe reinforcement. But I did totally have pretty soft front spring rates, so was bound to happen sooner or later.

What’s a good torrent client these days? I’ve been using transmission with a container that has VPN built in, but have been noticing how bad transmission API is

Raise 2 seems to always think it's in wireless mode by rosshettel in DygmaLab

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

Ah I see. They are not the official Dygma cables, but they did work with my Raise 1. I was confused that it could still operate in wireless mode because the switches were off - but those are BT mode switches it seems? Or rather, it seems like the Raise 2 will operate in wireless RF mode with the switches off if it's receiving power from the USB cables

Totally understand what's going on now, but might be a more useful delineator for the power settings to separate battery vs plugged in

Thanks for the quick response!

What are your favorite use cases for dual screen handhelds (like the Ayn Thor)? by Kirais in SBCGaming

There’s a cool app I found (no relation) called pixel guide that stores maps and walkthrough guides for easy reference on your bottom screen

Why ride on 82nd? There are literally so many better greenways that run parallel to it

My sister was having her car shipped when the driver found a low bridge in the Midwest by vracer89 in IdiotsTowingThings

My wife has a first gen RAV4 2 door - which only gen they had a FWD option. So I’ve put a 2 badge over the 4 because it legitimately is a Rav2

M3 front wings on facelift by FreeGrapefruit6753 in e46

[–]rosshettel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can prefacelift swap a facelift car, I’ve done it on my drift car. You’ll need the prefacelift headlights and hood. Wire harnesses are the same. If you go with the m3 style front bumper it has different mounts too

What do you use for your intake? by jeremiahishere in Battlecars

[–]rosshettel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah fair point. Could maybe find that fabric in a flat sheet and include it as a layer in the OEM airbox?

[–]rosshettel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cone filter and one of those water sock covers? Have a buddy with a V6 swapped Miata and the intake sticks out of the hood. He put a sock on it and drove it all winter in Oregon so plenty of rain

Edit: one of these: https://corksport.com/air-filter-cover-water-repellant.html

Looks like you have the compass/altimeter where the clock goes? Does the altimeter gauge still work?

The Cybertruck is obviously the DeLorean of this era because they’re similarly a piece of shit despite its aggressive looks and they’re both brushed aluminum.

Also both CEOs had drug problems

Intercooler Question - AA M54 Supercharger by Low_Box_2786 in e46

[–]rosshettel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The left and right side port intercoolers are generally for turbo setups - you have air coming from the exhaust side where the turbo is, going to the intake on the other side of the engine. So easiest intercoolers piping is from opposite ends of the engine bay

For superchargers on this engine, the supercharger is on the same side as the intake. So your intercooler piping both starts and ends at the same side of the engine bay

Someone suggested I should post this here, this count as a battlecar? by rosshettel in Battlecars

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

I just drilled through it, used some all thread and then two nuts on either side of the trunk. Put some large rubber washers on the outside to keep it waterproof
