I bought a super rare set of late 80s HKS temperature gauges for my GTX (to go with the boost and EGT i already have) and am going to need to figure out oil/water temperature senders. Anyone know of charts I can find a match for, or even a supplier for the actual sensors? I don't mind actually using an attiny or arduino to translate from gm or denso sensors, maybe then I could code in startup sweeps for gauges that never had them...

Is that also the video with the modernism/post-modernism chat? That was not what i expected when starting that video, but what a perfect must to make that point with.

It just reduces the available writes, I wouldn't worry about it. I've had the same SSD in a machine for at least 4 years now and it still is at 100% writes available. Its probably had 6 OS reinstalls and runs a handful of VMs that aren't ever stopped. It wasn't even a nice one, since the machine doesn't have SATAIII anyway (HP Microserver N36L).

I don't know if I ever mentioned it, but I did pick up 323 GTX #4 (or 5?) and have slowly been amassing awesome period performance parts from eBay and Croooober. Parts so far: New in box HKS PFC F-CON (piggyback fuel computer) vintage pre-SSQV HKS bypass valve original HKS EVC (boost controller) Boost/EGT gauges in 52mm Boost/EGT/water gauges in 46mm I'm still looking for an amber face oil temperature gauge (46 or 52mm whatever), Graphical Control Computer, and maybe the scramble controller if someone knows anyone looking to sell that stuff, even if its random parts. If anyone wants a white face HKS boost gauge, I have both the 20psi export version, and the 'compound meter' 1 bar Japanese market one. I don't need the 46mm boost/EGT either. The boost is mechanical and the EGT uses a standard K type thermocouple. ps HKS roolz GReddy and Blitz suck

A guy dumped a burning Mk4 Jetta outside my house. It burned 1600+ acres and Jonny Galecki's house across the street. It made it 3/4 of a circle around my house, and the only way mine is still here is CalFire received a grant for fire prevention clearing and knocked down 30 acres of brush. Otherwise I'd be phone postin' from Motel 6 for a while. Pictures incoming.

Seat Safety Switch posted:Any parts left from the Jetta? Securely in the hands of the Sheriff, actually. The story so far goes that this car was on fire already once a bit up the road. The CalFire hand crew doing clearing happened to be there and put his car out. He then continued to drive and it was fully involved in a 1/4 mile or so. This genius supposedly ditched it in the grass on the side of the road, and I'm sure the aforementioned Sheriff's department has some questions.

InitialDave posted:Do you have a battery conditioner? I have a couple of CTEKs, and they've rescued some fairly terminal stuff. I ran one through a Noco Genius in conditioning mode, and it seems to have come back. I'm less optimistic about the Yellowtop, its life has been rough even before this.

It was my night off without the kiddos last night and I had big plans. What really happened is that I got home at 5:45pm and slept until 6am. I don't think I've slept that much in years, I guess its been that kind of week.
