    • Have You Checked Your Spare Lately?

      IMG_7434.jpg

      I took some time this afternoon to check and re-adjust my tire pressure as I periodically do, and gave my dad a hand with the same task on theirs. We also took the time to check the spares as well, and they were certainly low. One was at 50 psi, while the other two were in the low 40s. Not the worst I've found though - I've found them at ~24 psi before.

      I keep a bicycle pump with me regardless, but it is nice to only need to bump the pressure up a bit if the spare is needed rather than need to fill it from near empty with said bicycle pump on the side of the road.

      Also an amusing note - all three spares are size 145-80 D17, and all three are different brands and countries of origin. A USA made Firestone, a Japanese made Bridgestone, and an Indonesian made Falken.

      Occasionally, I'm reminded that the 350Z is a pretty nice looking car.

    • Who Thought This Was a Good Idea?

      Want to experience the panic and despair of a wildfire from the comfort of your living room? Buy this fireplace screen from Plow & Hearth!

      "The Country Road Fireplace Screen is ingeniously designed to appear just like a walk down a long tree lined lane."

      Where? California?

      Or, maybe a relaxing mountain-side cabin is more your style?

      If I didn't first see these in a mail-order catalog, I'd have guessed that this was a joke product. Seriously, Plow & Hearth...

      I don't know why I'm looking at Levittown, NY on Street View, but look what I found! This was back from 2011, so who knows if they still exist.

      Perhaps the best I-Mark left? The period correct Enkei wheels are a nice touch.

    • New Americans from General Motors (and Some Fords and Chryslers)

      s-l1600_1.jpg

      What, you thought the Toyota Cavalier was the only attempt at selling an American car in Japan? Full disclosure - I suspect that the GM and Chrysler models that will be shown were imported and sold by Yanase & Co., Ltd. (That would probably make for an interesting article someday). I could be wrong though. I believe that Ford selling cars in Japan on their own (perhaps with support from Mazda).

    • RE: Windows 10 Oppo (seeking tech advice)

      @way2blu This is anecdotal, but I’ve seen that on multiple HDD based Windows 10 installs on multiple computers. My personal experience has been that I haven’t seen that issue with SSD based installs, even on the same computer.

      I’d be curious if anyone has an actual explanation. I’ve always “fixed” it by switching the offending machine to an SSD.

    • RE: TFW an MG Midget is so small it can't go on a U-Haul AT

      @ramblinrover This was ~5 years ago and I’m not sure the age of the trailer. I think we made the reservation with an E36 as the car to be hauled. Definitely not advisable...

    • RE: A winning plan

      @musashi66 I think the STi 6-speed and the old WRX 5-speed are both 3.900. I believe the 6-speed in the newer WRX is 4.111, so likely a bit better suited.

      Super GT is back, and the first round is underway.

      English coverage is being provided by Motorsport.tv, though it is pay per view. Supposedly, the coverage will be available free of charge 48 hours after the race.

      In the meantime, here’s the in-car feed from the #61 BRZ:

    • RE: A development in gmctavish’s never ending 4x4 search

      @gmctavish I seem to recall the early models had issues with the inner fenders / aprons cracking over time. Something to watch for when looking. I don’t remember if it really caused issues, but it’s probably best to avoid it all together. I believe it was fixed in late ‘08 or early ’09.
