  • battery relocation
    O out there
    Car Tech

    Sorry, I was out of town for a week.

    The bug is a 2006 model.

    Relocating the battery seems like the best method of wiring this system because the current battery barely fits under the hood, so the wires are hard to reach. I have a 0 gauge wire that isn't being used for anything, so I might as well just install two batteries back there, and wire them in parallel. Less fuss, less mess, more cranking amperage.

    Car Tech

    Is anyone still here? I'm hoping for some help with a little project this summer.

    My diesel bug does not start (reliably) in the winter, unless it's in a garage. With that in mind, I'm planning to wire up two batteries in parallel for twice the current at the same voltage. Has anyone else done this? I'm mostly concerned about how to mount two batteries in the trunk.

    While we're on the topic, if I pay someone else to do this, I'll probably want to get some tinting. Any suggestions are appreciated.


  • console vs pc content
    O out there
    Gaming

    I'm in the middle of a debate with my lady-friend about whether the content of console games is different from PC games. Can anyone who has played both versions significantly offer input? Right now, the points of contention are Bioshock, Fallout 3, and Half-life 2. Since I got tired of Bioshock, haven't played most of the main story for Fallout, and have never played Half-life, I'm in no position to argue that the PC content is identical to Xbox.

    What can you guys offer?

    I mentioned both of these to him, and it sounds like he might be running into financial aid issues this semester. As much as I'd like to give one of you a positive answer, it looks like he may be pretty drained for a while.

    Do you have any other information about it? Would you pm me your number so one of us can contact you?

    Wanted Ads

    One of my co-workers is looking for an inexpensive 4x4. It sounds like he's more interested in some kind of truck, like a 4runner (probably for snow clearance). He would like to keep the price no higher than $2500, and his second selling point is that it must be running.

    Thanks guys, PM me with any leads.

    European cars is the clincher. Since they're on the same payroll, it just makes sense that Valley Imports would recommend Advanced; much less worry about communications issues, etc. Eurofan recommends Fargo's Finest, so that might be where I go when I get smashed the next time.


  • Black Swan
    O out there
    The Parking Lot

    If you have seen any of Aronofsky's films, you can expect the same kind of slow start. I don't usually waste my money on the regular theater, but I have been impressed with this guy's work, and Black Swan raises the ante.

    The common way to describe what happens to the main character (Nina, played by Natalie Portman) is to say that she's "crazy". That doesn't properly encompass everything that happens to her. It's far more complex.

    If you've seen Fight Club, you may see some parallels between these films, but there isn't much. The story is perfectly linear, so it's pretty easy to follow.

    On a scale of 0-100, I think this film is no less than 97.

    +1 for Progressive. Good work and low prices.
    -1 for Quality Auto. My friend damaged a factory turbo-charged car, and they completely ignored the intercooler piping. Hello another $450 in parts, and convincing the insurance company that the repair shop didn't complete their work.
    +0 for Advanced Auto. Wayne strikes me as either easily annoyed, or not a good customer service person.

  • Indoor running tracks

    Unless it's changed in recent years, Moorhead high school has a track around their ice rinks, and it's open to the public. I think the track in Concordia's concourse is open to the public, but classes and school functions are privy to it before anyone else.

    My mom's plan costs about $230/month with all of the phones and her Blackberry, but we only have 700 shared minutes, and limited texting capabilities. Plus, when I upgrade to a 4g phone, I'll have to get a new data plan. I called yesterday to ask about changing to this plan, and it is going to be on par with the current plan cost, but we get 1400 shared minutes, and way more of everything else.

    If your goal with posting that was to incite paralysis from laughter, I think you managed to succeed 100%.

    I guess nobody ever bothered to think about most of the older rotary engines, and even the newer NA ones. The current RX8 is only rated at 159 ft/lb.
    Unless I misremember, plenty of race-tuned S2000s are/were less than 200 ft/lb of torque.

    What about how light F1 cars are? The minimum race weight is 620kg (1367lb). How fast is a stock S2000/RX8/etc? How fast would it be with half the weight and less wind resistance? Science rules.

  • Kinda retarded if you ask me?

    The Parking Lot

    I believe the purpose of these limits is to discourage the rampant drunkenness that plagues this area. Personally, I'm in favor of not removing the prudish time restrictions on liquor sales. If they really intend to do this "for the health of the community", then they would be much better off doing something like what "dry" states and cities do.

    Economically, this area makes a killing on liquor taxes, but individuals lose huge amounts on penalties, and the entire area takes a huge hit because of the lost productivity. It's not a simple "this causes problems, ban it" kind of solution, it's a very complex issue.

    As much as I'd like to offer assistance, the sleeping hours at my house tend to be about the hours you'll be working, so you'd have a hard time getting any rest.

    What kind of budget do you have and what days will you be here? I can make a few calls to find out about rates for you. Which company will you be with? There are a few places that have corporate contracts at the hotels, and one of them might be to your advantage.

    I know the chances are poor, but I'm hoping. If you have a dead SZ series (I think an S series will work), I might be willing to buy the whole thing, depending on why it's dead.

    If I don't get anything by Sunday evening, I'm just going to order one online.

    Verizon's website doesn't show anything like that.
    http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20022136-1.html
    From TFA "A Verizon customer I know called today to try to get the plan and was told he didn't qualify, though he couldn't get the carrier to give him a reason."

    What does "unlimited" imply? Verizon's current data plan is unlimited, but they'll charge you for everything beyond your contracted amount; the same with voice, text, etc.
