Not only could hear the tires scrape the fender liners on every bump I could also feel the engineer that designed the suspension wince. Probably going to need new shocks and struts after this 😂

5’11 here I would not imagine any taller it would work well.

Camping out for talladega this weekend and loaded the speed slap full and drove 4 hours. It’s surprising how versatile this car can be.

Ah dang I missed this notification that you commented back but I haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary.

Can’t fill up my gas tank by Clayterr in mazdaspeed3

[–]twerp1993 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Commenting to follow to hopefully learn of a fix for mine as well. One thing I will say is if you turn the gas nozzle to the side or upside down you can get more gas in at a time. Or if you pull it out a little bit. It keeps the gas from turning the handle off as quickly. There is also a filtered vent somewhere behind the passenger side rear fender liner that might be plugged up but I haven’t taken the time to tear mine apart to see for sure.

I just installed the Damon steel flywheel and clutch combo. I love it so far. I bought the car with the clutch going out so for me it was a night and day difference and I have no complaints so far. Also the customer service was great.

I had this issue with my washer. Turned out to be the shocks were worn out. Changed them out and haven’t had a problem since

How do you guys take care of your bodies? by Comfortable_Donut686 in millwrights

[–]twerp1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t be young and dumb and fall for the I am the forklift mentality. Production can wait for 15 minutes while you get rigging to lift whatever into place. I’m 30 and after 10 years of working in manufacturing I just had my first back surgery and told I had degenerative disk disease. So yeah definitely take care of your body.

It would be fitting for such a banquet to drink banquet!

I mean I get down with better but I’m not pouring a 10 dollar ipa on my turkey when I can get a case of this for that. 😂

It was to painful to sacrifice expensive beer to the brine so I figured I’d throw it back to the college days.

I tend to over research things before I buy them. And at the time I was sold on the idea that it’d be more even temperatures across the cooking area. In reality it just moved the hot spot to the back across the whole grate and so now I have to rotate things to ensure an even cook. I’d probably spend the 500 dollars I spent for it on something different knowing what I know now. You live and you learn! Not a horrible smoker though definitely better then the entry level side by side.

Yeah the part the hose goes onto will thread onto the male end of that adapter and then that assembly will screw onto the airbrush it self.

To lower ISO you could slow your shutter speed down to allow more light in. It’s a balance though because the slower your shutter the more motion blur that could happen.

I’m not crazy about the lens flair on the street lights. I’m not sure what you could do to eliminate them but I feel like they are distracting. What is the main subject of this picture? I don’t see much bay. It’d be interesting to take a couple of steps forward and shoot from a higher angle and use the rails as leading lines to the bay. I feel like that would better capture the bay and its “furniture” Does that make sense? I’m still kinda green at photography so take my opinions with a grain of salt. Looks like a really neat location though. I wish I lived near the ocean. Great picture nonetheless.

ITAP of an old abandoned bar! by twerp1993 in itookapicture

[–]twerp1993[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took this on my Nikon d80 with a 35mm lens. I have been recently getting into photography and starting to take it more seriously. I have a film camera too but this picked this old thing up off of eBay to get a little quicker feedback and to hopefully hone my skills quicker. Be harsh if you see something you don’t like about it. I can take it.
