cursedshitbox posted:NV is based off the original MSRP of the vehicle. No depreciation is taken into consideration either. NV loves to gently caress Euro car owners even more than the Europeans do.   I really enjoyed going through the paperwork of my '89 and watching it go from $30/yr to $130/yr just because, you know, gently caress you.

IOwnCalculus posted:Netbooks make the best garage machines. My 1000HE may be old and slow, but it's still good enough to pull up PDFs / play Google music / surf Autozone and Rockauto, while being lovely enough that who cares if it gets greasy. Here I thought I was the only one damaged enough to have an eee phase.  Recently I've moved to virtual hardware to break me of the leash of the one single old dell that would run XP and had REAL LEGACY HARDWARE PORTS. Of course even with VirtualBox/VirtualPC, I still need to use USB adapters old enough for the host OS. (I've had both decent and shittastic compatibility with docking stations, so not trying to get stuck getting married to one of those for life, too.)  Thought about posting a "Missed Connections" today: You: That georgeous-from-afar cream white 9000 who always crosses the opposite way on the split lane highway. Me: The other SAAB in our state. I noticed today for the first time that your grill is busted up pretty bad. Thats ok. If I was only after looks, I probably wouldn't be driving an OG95. Lets fix your messed up face and kick up the pressure.

Rhyno posted:Went to the lake for the day yesterday and it loving rained and was gross and windy. At the end of the day one of my friends drops it on me that is thyroid cancer has returned and he's got probably a year to live and no insurance to cover treatment this time. The good news is that with Obamacare, they can't deny him insurance. They can make it completely unaffordable, but they can't turn him away. It isn't a bad time of year for a benefit garage sale, followed with a donations-accepted spaghetti dinner. Just don't hold it anywhere near that ghetto you live in.

some texas redneck posted:Walmart stocks both regular Mobil 1 and Mobil 1 Extended Performance for $22.88 around here, in the common weights. And I can have it in my hands today. I'm paying sales tax either way, but I'll gladly pay the extra 22 cents to have it today. and the Wal-Mart I usually shop at carries an OEM AC Delco filter for my car for $7. They're also open at 2am, which is when I usually get out of work. I came to post pretty much this - I bought some 0w30 and 0w40 today for essentially the same price, and didn't have to wait 3 weeks for it.I'm waiting 9 or so weeks for a trusted brand of electrolytic capacitors, though. Gee- I could get some super cheap ones from Asia on eBay for pennies, shipped! Yeah, no. Not when my eReputation is riding on it. Gonna go snuggle SAABdog now.

I had no idea these guys had a business plan that would enable them to exist after 2004. kastein posted:Not difficult, unless something is out of stock. Ding, ding, ding! It seems that nobody geared towards the hobbyist has these specific Panasonic caps in stock. Mouser has two variants of them, one is 8+ weeks out, and the other one is non-stock with a 6 week lead. DigiKey has 4,000 of them, but minimum order is 2,000 at $0.90/ea. Those prices are as bad as Ratshack.

kastein posted:There doesn't appear to be a very good substitute available, but I only spent about 15 seconds searching for one. I figured you'd have something useful to interject. I'm passively lazy after spending what was it - two days trying to figure a proper waterproof insulated plug for something a year or so ago, so Mouser is my first stop, then digi-key. Finally, if really hard up we have a once good, now poo poo semi-local place. I'm not going to burn 4 gallons of gas to get a loving capacitor, though, unless one hell of a client depends on it. I think I was trying to help Motronic (before his wife kicked him out to live in the garage). Try reasoning that one out in your head. Viggen helping Motronic. Somehow, my HF 1/2" click torque wrench died some time between when I unwound it following the oil change last week (yeah not going to start that derail), and when I went to use it yesterday. No click for 19ft/lbs, and I'm starting to physically strain? Yeah, no. gently caress you, HF torque wrench. I'll use your 1/4" little brother, instead.

Friar Zucchini posted:So I just stopped by the auto section at Best Buy to look at noisy parts that I can't afford and there was a little display with a few different kinds of breathalyzers for sale. Brilliant crossover there, on that managers' part. Just so long as it is packed next to the Sony XPLOD and Jensen kits. Went to go pull the head on the now-dead 2.4DOHC churd, and found that even my weak bony nerdskeleton fingers are too large to fit in most of these places. What. The. gently caress. gently caress you, Hyundkia. Was going to do my last of the first summer oil changes today, but the sky is a little less than trustworthy. The fact we dropped 20 degrees in 1/2 hour may have something to do with it. Do not hail on my cars, drat you.

Rhyno posted:You can probably get $50-60 for the set on Ebay. I was at my friend's vintage toy shop today and said that's about what he'd sell them for if the plastic bubbles aren't yellowing. They've been stored in a closet for that period. Sound familiar? Also, Motronic, it sucked seeing Omar taken out the way he was in Season 5 of "The Wire". The last two seasons should never have been made. Season 3 had a good closure. The season 5 ending was kind of poo poo. I'm on episode 2 of "Oz" now, drat I need different background noise than this, because I look up at the screen and I have no idea who these characters are. Having the narrator/wheelchair guy is kind of detracting for me, because I think it is just a waste - trying to set the scene for the story, when the story is visibly unfolding.

Well, the Miata probably has the same compression across all cyls as the Rover. E: Oz really sucks. It comes off as some strong poo poo, and wait, no, its just prison assrape with a gimp for cut scenes. Woop-de-loving do. Its trying too hard to be edgy. I think I'm done with this series at S1E4.

You Am I posted:Sorry to see that, because there is a lot more to it than the prison rape. After I reminded myself this is from the late 90s, I decided to give it a bit less jaundiced eye. Hell, this was edgy then, even if it is a bit trite at times. I'm up to S2E1, and we haven't had the annoying crackhead in the wheelchair as our "Guide on the Jailhouse Ride" every 3 seconds, so, eh.. I may sit it out.
