Welcome to the IHoP v.2
FUCK YES! My next project is putting some white reflective boars on the garage ceiling and adding 8-12 flourescents. I HATE dark garages.

Time to chop around the box for Project Stupid. I made it fit entirely in the cargo area, easily below the window line.

The Illimunator is way nicer than the Vifa. I don't know about the SB, but am doubtful it'll compete.But then again, the car is loud, I don't plan on making it quieter. So I'm not sure atm if the price difference will be useful. For a nice sound system I still have the Jeep, which works a treat with the extra power on tap.

It's very noisy indeed A full-ranger works only if I remove the dash. A-pillars are small, I need the space in the kicks. So yeah..it's probably going to be the Vifa.

A-HA, Vifa and SB Acoustics make something nice: 1" Vifa: http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/vifa-soft-dome-tweeters/vifa-ne25vts-04-1-silk-dome-tweeter/ 1" SB http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/sb-acoustics-soft-dome-tweeters/sb-acoustics-sb26stcn-c000-4-tweeter-4-ohms/ If I can get similar performance to the Illuminator from the Vifa, I'm set.

You won't get a healthy 1k out of them, but they are nice and do dig. Start at 1500/24 and carefully step down Why do you say 1k is not healthy? Asking so I can gauge out other tweeters There's also the larger version, this: http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/scanspeak-soft-dome-tweeters/scanspeak-illuminator-d3004/6020-00-tweeter-textile-dome/ 7mm larger flange diameter it's not a big issue.

My father's been using a brush and cream since like forever but I could only find crappy brushes, which smelled horrible after the first use. So I'm now using can foam. Your argument against multi-blade makes sense, I'll try it with a single-blade, curious how it works.

If I use something like a mach 3 and go in several directions, I have unacceptable stubble in 1-1.5 days. This all started when I was looking for an after, or preshave oil or balsm that would keep my face feeling better. I have a postshave balsm but it doesn't do shit for the electric razor burn. Having to wear a tie everyday isn't helping. I get to choose to be clean shaven or have a red irritated neck and face. My general inflammation disorder doesn't help I'm sure. Anyway, when looking into a face remedy I came across this engineer type dude who made a good argument that multiple blades make for a worse shave and cartridge blades are not only crap quality but full of bacteria etcetc. So one edge is preferable, and ideally it souldnt have a guard as the guard itself can mat down the hair. So even a well designed safety razor with a new blade will still cause more irritation than a straight blade. I'm overthinking shit. Just curious if you all had an opinion. So going with an old-fashioned razor should do the trick and keep irritation down? One reason why I hate shaving is the irritation I get on my neck.

Looks like I found the tweeter for the Miata install: http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/scanspeak-soft-dome-tweeters/scanspeak-illuminator-d2004/6020-00-tweeter/ FS is 600Hz and by the frequency response graph I could get away with crossing it as low as 1k, should pair up well with the Extremis. They're also small, which is nice in a small car.

I shave only 10-15 days or so. Gotta leave the ginger beard show, so people know why I don't have a soul.

T-shirt design is ready, cars are nearly ready, Project Stupid will see the first competition on Sunday. We even have a spare amp to run the lowest possible class. Fingers crossed I can make the box fit better in the Jeep

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
I did not even change the oil, so I guess the autocross will have to wait

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Holy shit, there's an autocross-like competition this weekend. Together with a sound competition. Damn, damn, which one to go to? I'm not at all familiar with the limits of the Miata, at least not like I know the Jeep (when it breaks traction, how easy it is to control etc).

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Backtracking to the bitch who said she won't have a coffee with me because she doesn't like my car and I couldn't care less I invited her for a ride topless and she ended up saying used cars are shitty. It felt so good saying my car has had less owners than she had. If she replies after this slap, she's either stupid, or desperate. It was fun to "chat" with her nonetheless. She can't swallow the fact that I don't kiss her ass.

The alien thing has been just funny to me. I haven't played more than a couple hours. Work is killing me. it opens up a bit when the heists start. if you're not enjoying some of the side mission stick with the main story line. you can also avoid some driving by calling a taxi. I started the first heist already. I am doing the preparations now. What other fruits make for tasty spirits? I'm thinking of making apple cider and applejack first. Can plums work, or too tart? Plums are great in white. Persimmons are commonly used in the SE. Plum brandy, YUM Can't wait for the next 2-day SPL competition, we always have a small party the night between and the plum brandy (or firewater) is plentiful. Last time I got hammered on that stuff.
