The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[Evan9999]

Trany Mount comes today! And I started my E85 tune Monday and last night I got an iteration and I have come to the conclusion that I love Corn!

I've seen some good numbers after people go to an E85 tune. Lots of torque!!!! Makes me want to use it one day. Too bad there aren't enough E85 stations by me.

 

[pmartz16]

there is only one station by me so I just plan where I'm going

LOL, that'd make me feel really silly...


Yep, I bench bled the MC. Twice, actually because I didn't check the piston movement after the first time and I thought there may be some air in the system still. I bled all four corners probably a dozen times last night and I'm not getting any change. Every now and then I'll get a tiny bubble but I'm not thinking that's air getting in through the bleeder fitting. If I was slowly getting air out of the system I'd expect the pedal feel would change but I'm not getting anything, The thing that has me stuck is why I can't build up stiffness in the pedal. If it were air, pumping the pedal would briefly build pressure and with the car off the pedal should get stiff due to the lack of vacuum in the booster. I thought the latter was due to the lack of a check valve but even when I installed that nothing changed. That's when I found out the check valve isn't holding vacuum either. I'm going to buy a cheap plastic one at Autozone after work today to see if that fixes anything.

Good luck.

And btw if I come up to a car with a "SLOW ___" plate, I'm going to assume it's quick.

that's what I was trying to tell him.. I'm not the only one who thinks this way.

This...

Jon, how about PSTNLESS?

 

[Kiseliok]

Jon, how about PSTNLESS?

Doesn't OH only allow 7 characters with one space? Unless they changed it within the last two iterations of ugly @ss plates.

 

[WillD]

7 characters max, 2 spaces max.

^ PSTNLSS problem solved

 

[hat1018]

Maybe? Oh well. I fail.

 

[hat1018]

Levi to the rescue!

A buddy of mine in cbus had that on his 8 when he had it. It was a few years ago though. (ted for the people who were curious)

 

[ajkulish]

i am considering getting slow ms3 plates, or TORQ STR or FWD FTL

after i typed it up, i started thinking and was like im pretty sure that was teds plate on the 8... but wasnt 100% sure and figured someone would chime in hahahaha

So while I'm having Will make me up some new auto-x numbers and CR3 stickers should I get some vinyl for under the license plate that says "No, really. It's ******* slow.". lulz.

All those plates are pretty funny, AJ. Problem is when non-automotive people try to figure them out. Apparently I'm an activist against MSG in food.

[XCLR8TN]

Sigh. I never did come up with a good one for my miata

MX5PT7
JNBA ITA
V8 BRG
SLO ATA
MEOTTA
ZM ZM (I'm sure that's taken)
ZOOM

If XCLR8TN isn't taken I'd go with that.

 

[ajkulish]

how is it that slow lol. you have a tmic, AP, intake and internals. it cant be that slow

 

[Lewis7789]

get a plate frame and put that sticker on the actual plate frame haha

That's actually not a bad idea at all. haha

 

[THE Phen]

get better tires?

Yeah, I guess RT615K's aren't nearly sticky enough... Thoughts on what better to get?

Exactly. It's just his way of being modest so he doesn't look like another douche bag Mazdaspeed owner...

(Nobody from here, just what I hear the people over on the speed forums are like. lol)
