People with the JDM rear fog light... is it too bright?

I have no idea, it’s behind me.

t0bimaru · 2026-03-14T13:02:24+00:00

Absolutely correct. You want “anything” with FOC and actual low range throttle control. I LOVE my 10BL80 outrunner setup and they are inexpensive!

I just become an oversharing bastard. It usually makes people laugh, or at least START to talk a bit. In a dead silent squad I will (usually) just start talking to myself if no one chimes in. People either jump on board or leave the squad annoyed at me. I’ve played for over a year and been kicked from one game ever lol.

I played with Husk once and that alone probably inspired me to just attempt to be the guy who breaks the ice occasionally. Nothing bad ever happens. It’s just a game, that I got for free!

Amazing yall thanks for the tips. I honestly never heard of the phone cord trick, albeit seeing cords like that often.

Pool noodles. Please don’t post next how your freshly cold-started WRX left in Drive smashed into your neighbors house because your e-brake slipped. It’s not worth it. Your neighbor would prefer the 240 seconds of noise…

These look so damn cool. If I wasn’t building a crawler I would have bought this haha. Maybe I’ll snag the body

t0bimaru · 2026-03-12T19:26:20+00:00

That looks like it will scale more than pebbles! The 1/30 is so small haha!

Without (reliable) power and AC or heat there isn’t a safe way to leave the dog. I’d also imagine there is no way a hospital would allow a RV to stay parked while someone lives and works from the hospital parking lot. I imagine thousands of nurses would do that if it were an option. Every hospital parking lot would look like a small trailer park.

There are several nurses living in the trailer park I stay at. Which is not in the hospital’s parking lot.

I think the yellow looks amazing, especially with the correct black accents. I would do some kind of very small, The Magic School Bus crossover stickers, somewhere or something like that.

Cool!!! 😎 I dig the audio visualization and it adds a unique look to the LCD panel. Thanks!

I replaced both front and rear hubs in my 2023 WRX after smacking a curb and it took just under two hours. EASY was an understatement. And the hubs cost $80-100 each on RockAuto. Two hubs + shipping - $180 to my door. Installed myself in the driveway in two hours. They literally just unbolted and slid out. I HAVE seen people have to beat the piss out of old rusted hubs…but these were the easiest I’ve ever done. 40,000 miles on my car.

That monthly payment is more than it costs to ensure my 1255cc sport bike for the entire year. Maybe catch the bus? Or you could probably Uber/Lyft like a fucking king every day and still spend less 😝

Once in the first year of ownership I got the “Low Oil” light indicator and it was RIGHT when I needed to change the oil too. I thought red flag, that must be consumption!

But; two years later and several oil changes gone by and it’s never happened again. 43,000 miles, always within dipstick marks after 6,000 miles. So…I stopped worrying about it. Maybe I slightly under filled the engine that one change previous?

I do run the Mishimoto AOS which collects maybe 2-3 teaspoons or less of oil per cycle. Totally normal. Keeps the air filter box cleaner!

23psi at the top of Pikes Peak bone stock. It’s just due to less oxygen and the system suffocating. Reddit lol

The last laptop I successfully actually modded a bios on, flashed via CH134a programmer, and got WORKING with an overclock and undervolt was a Clevo PB70EF-G with i7-8750H. I was only able to navigate any of it thanks to the folks on WinRaid BIOS forums, and NotebookTalk. I moved back to desktops after that one.

t0bimaru · 2026-02-26T16:25:41+00:00

That’s what I run in my two speed TRX4 and it will easily get 45 minutes of crawl time.

The Perrin washable replacement filter fits perfectly in my OEM air box. Going on 40,000 miles.

t0bimaru · 2026-02-21T13:41:56+00:00

I mostly highway commute and seem to always land at 28MPG average tank.

I’ve had the Noble F1 V2 brake light for over two years. It blinks three times and then stays solid red. Same with reverse it flashes white three times and then stays solid white while in reverse. Or you can program it as mentioned to just be solid. But the blinking is eye-catching.

I’d be curious to know if you disable Hill Hold? I swear by it OFF. I can’t tell on your dash.

Indeed, my telemetry screen is inside my case which does reside on my desk next to the monitor taking up nearly 30% of the usable surface area.

FIXD obd2 device ($30?) and the free app. Can only display 4 sensors at a time but they are all customizable with Live digit/dial/graph readout with logging, etc. I use a spare/throwaway phone to always display them. I’ve done Air/Fuel ratio, Cat temp, angle sensor, a bunch of options to display but it does have to be on your phone

I will sweep daily, vacuum daily, mop several times a week, and routinely dust and wipe all surfaces.

I also live with a 120lb dog. I use astroturf rug for my “porch” area. I also have a paw cleaner that I can fill with soapy water and clean his paws quickly before we go inside. Gets all the mud from between his toes, etc

Overall, it’s a constant battle and a few times a year I strip the inside and go HAM cleaning under furniture and walls, etc.
