    Need something with a CVT lol

    The Sentra likes to hang out at 3K rpm during moderate acceleration and 5K when you floor it

    I've been giving it some good Italian tune ups

    Expensive up front but the convenience is huge

    Then replenishing what you use is cheap and incremental at your own time

    Soooooooooooooo having been a manager at an ACE I'm gunna share this but probably shouldn't?


    ACE gets all their hardware from a 3rd party company called Hillman. A Hillman rep comes in and checks the bins and reorders for them, if it's a big enough ACE the hillman rep will even come in on order delivery days amd put em away themselves. Anyway, it works that you write the qty and the price on the little bag and the cashier has a generic SKU code for bulk hardware and hard keys it in.

    The employee discount storewide was big %, but the company still made a profit off all employee purchases. Our discount for anything on the HILLMAN aisle was was 50% of the marked retail. I don't actively work at an ACE now but when I need onesie twosie things I still only write on the bag 50% of the marked retail cause they're still making money but I'll be damned if I'm paying 1.29 for something that only cost .08 to make

    If they built CVTs like their supposed to I'd be ALL for it, but drivers are fucking stupid and "need to feel a shift point" so all automotive ones are junk because of it :(

    Stupid easy.

    Was just hard at first finding center points or reference points to create an odd radius that was called for with missing measurements.

    The measurements are missing on purpose, for us to figure out the right quadrant points and/or tangents.

    Only specific details are given like the distance between center points of a circle, or the diameter or radius of another, etc.

    I want to start dabbling into making my rear swingout.

    To start, I need to pull my rear bumper off and measure the mounting points before anything else.

    Though I could just base measurements "away from the LC" for the swingout portion itself.
