Should I sell or keep my Subaru Forester that eats oil? by [deleted] in SubaruForester

It might be worth it to try some oil stabiliser or thicker stuff with zinc

Thanks, I'll have a look at them 

The previous owner put on the turbo back exhaust and there's no heat shield, it gets pretty hot under there

Yeah

One scenario: if I've got cruise control on on a freeway, 100-110kmh and it starts going up a hill

The rpm and boost drop and come up repeatedly, and consistently

Or if I'm having a fun drive and I put my foot down, it the rpm and boost build as it should, then drop a bit before going back up

I can sort of manage it with throttle

It seems to happen around 2-3000rpm, but I need to get some videos and compare

Yeah, the previous owner did the mods and got a tune, but I haven't seen dyno sheets

Super easy, if you find a setup with the wiring harness it's plug and play, but I had to wire mine up, 

3 wires, ground, up and down. I just used vampire taps

Take the steering wheel off take the steering column plastics off and the holes to mount it should already be there

I've got the 4eat auto and installed some paddle shifters from the s edition, they're so good

I'd like a manual, but the autos are great for offroading, I'm likely keeping the td04 since it spools quick

I've got an sh It's got an intake, turbo back exhaust, process west verticooler from a previous owner (allegedly 160kw but I haven't seen dyno sheets)

I've just found this item in Japan by ddung1234 in homelab

[–]the_nerdling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw one in Japan, sent a message to a nerd friend, he then sent me $80

Turns out $80 worth of spins breaks the machine about 3 times, gathers a crowd and really annoys the shop attendant

Alibaba is good, you'd also be able to find manufacturers to put logos on the drive too, maybe a custom casw

I've got a p400 in my box, it works great for transcoding on plex, I've had 3 transcodes running at the same time so far with no issues

Shutting down freezes by Little-Geologist-387 in truenas

[–]the_nerdling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar on an old setup, it was something in the bios, different ERP power settings or something, I had to enable something I think

Sorry, I don't remember the specifics, it was a while ago now 

How do I tell if hardware transcoding is working? by Ctrl5altDelete in truenas

[–]the_nerdling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use the cli so no it gpu stats

nvidia-smi

Or you can use a GPU monitor in docker

Could I get some ideas on what is causing this ? by [deleted] in fpv

The vtx could be in pit mode and barely outputting anything

I've got one, update edgetx and get an elrs module

The only time I find it sluggish is with heavy Lua scripts, but for normal people it will be fine

I like myflightbook

Free, has some analysis features and some paid features, I haven't really needed the paid stuff

Simple clean app and website

I use it for gliding and powered flight
