"Four wheels move the body. Two wheels move the soul."
This is very interesting and your spreadsheet is very helpful. I’m going to build one for my 4 stroke car engine, I’m just wondering if there are any changes in the principles for 4t as opposed to 2t?
Wow, the sound. I'm suddenly 45 years younger. Waving goodbye to Dad on the driveway every morning as he burbles off to work. Putting me on the tank, gripping the cold steel handlebars and going for a (helmetless) spin around the block upon his return. I can almost SMELL it through the speakers!
You probably can't make much by welding a cracked exhaust. But when your own pipe cracks, you certainly save a lot of time and money versus bringing it to someone else for them to repair
Very nice set up, but you missed some key components of running a hydroponic cultivation. PH, PPM during the various stages of growth, Oxygenating your water... You have a float valve topping off your reservoir, but I don't understand how you PH and top off your nutrients unless you have an in line mechanism injecting fertilizer after the valve, How you keep the nutrient solution consistent is beyond me. You have blueberries which like acidic soils at like 5.2 PH and peppers which like standard soils at a 6.2 to 6.8 eating the same fertilizer regime while being isolated to inert growing mediums and being fed an organic nutrient solution which can probably only be uptaken at a PH of like 6.5... I have no idea how you make this work and I've grown a lot for a long time in a tone of different ways. My advice to someone trying this would be to instead of using inert growing media like perlite or hydro ton to grow various kinds of plants would be to instead. Buy Peat moss, coco coir, earthworm castings, pumice, oyster shell, calcium carbonate lime stone, fish bone meal, bone meal, gypsum, a bit of biodynamic compost, some course sand and save up some used coffee grounds and egg shells. Mix these ingredient into two balanced blends (the distributors will have the ratios but you'll be doing half of that per container) The acidic plants will have a blend that's heavy on gypsum, coffee grounds and fish meal, while the neutral soil plants will have a mix that's a bit heavier on lime stone. Once you have blends that will maintain there soil PH and consistency for a reasonable amount of time without requiring adjustments Feel free to set up a reservoir to mix your fertilizer with a pump and timer, adequate drip irrigation, and a drain line that rather than recirculates back into your reservoir is instead drained into an adjacent planter or garden bed. The irrigation frequency has to be adjusted throughout the growth cycle to maintain a relative soil moisture and dry back, Your nutrient solution should be drained and remade from scratch every week. Use a nutrient regime that actually works for soils and allows you to let mix for a week without it falling out of solution or losing the Potential hydrogen PH needed to feed the plants. Also oxygenate your water and get the ammonium chloride out of it. A product i would recommend is the Canna Terra Vega and flora or Bio bizz i believe they have product that is good for soils and can be mixed and applied for a week or so before it falls out of solution. ideally you'll only use a fertilizer that wants to be PH's at 6.5, but some of the more synthetic one require lower PH and can work if your mixes are reduced to less amendments. There's alot to plant science and if you can make the set up in the video work More power to ya, but If you can get a well rounded regime that's mixed correctly in a growing medium that's appropriate for the desired plant health you'll get a lot further it think. Really hydroponics is designed around producing monocrops. If you have an inert growing medium with tomato's in it and the only available food source is a liquid feed designed for tomato's? Well obviously tomatoes are going to grow well in it, same for peppers and thing's like tomatoes, but trees aren't gonna like it as much, berries and grapes aren't going to do well in an environment designed for peppers and tomatoes. Specializing soil mixes and applying well rounded fertilizers to enhance the plants nutrient uptake while giving the ideal root zone for the plants to digest and harbor native beneficial organisms just ends up being more productive if you want variety. If you just want peppers? Stone wool, synthetic fertilizers are really productive.
here's the Chat GPT version. Your setup is impressive, but to truly optimize hydroponic cultivation, several key components seem to be overlooked. Factors such as pH levels, PPM (parts per million) during different growth stages, and oxygenation of the water are crucial for sustained success. I noticed you have a float valve for topping off your reservoir, but it's unclear how you manage pH levels and nutrient replenishment, especially considering the need for consistency in the nutrient solution. Achieving this consistency is essential, particularly when cultivating a variety of plants with different soil pH preferences, such as blueberries and peppers. Moreover, using inert growing media like perlite or hydroton might not provide the optimal conditions for diverse plant growth. For those attempting similar setups, I'd recommend a more tailored approach, utilizing organic materials like peat moss, coco coir, and earthworm castings, along with various minerals, to create soil mixes tailored to the specific needs of the plants. Creating such blends ensures pH balance and consistency over time without the need for frequent adjustments. Setting up a reservoir with a pump and timer for fertilizer mixing, along with proper irrigation and drainage systems, is essential for maintaining nutrient levels and moisture balance. It's crucial to adjust irrigation frequency throughout the growth cycle to maintain soil moisture levels and nutrient uptake. Regularly replacing the nutrient solution and using fertilizers designed for soil application can prevent nutrient deficiencies and maintain pH stability. Oxygenating the water and avoiding substances like ammonium chloride are also important considerations. While hydroponics can excel with monocrops like tomatoes or peppers, achieving variety and optimal plant health often requires a more nuanced approach with tailored soil mixes and well-rounded fertilizers. Specializing soil blends and providing the ideal root environment can enhance nutrient uptake and support native beneficial organisms, ultimately leading to higher productivity, especially for diverse plantings like trees, berries, and grapes. In summary, while your setup is commendable, addressing these aspects could lead to even greater success and productivity in your hydroponic cultivation endeavors.
Not sure about speed, but in the high desert in southern California, we can get some pretty intense winds at times. That's why we poured a concrete foundation and used self-tapping screws to hold the panels to the frame
@@FormulaJake I live down the road in the PalmSprings area of Ca. Our winds are frequently enough to be 15 to 35 mph with gusts. Fortunately theyre only in the first 2 or 3 months, as I recall. The constant vibrations a wind causes expensive cloth lined car covers to wear spots in the paint and anywhere there is a snug contact interface between the plastic or cloth against a harder surface,clamps or car fender s. I think I recall youve had this "structure for while and vibration hasnt worn holes or rips at the plastic sheeting and where it contacts the structure/clamp mechanism?
Right on. We haven't had any issues with vibration or strong winds harming our structure. Without the concrete foundatuon, I think it's possible that it would have blown away. And without the self tapping screws, the panels certainly would have been blown off by the wind
I had the 125 then the 185 and they were priceless little machines, The 125 would bump start backwards and do reverse rolling burn outs just to surprise people, It had major points stator plate/ignition issues, Allspeed spannies and k&n filters, drops and black alloy rimmed wheels, great weight saver!!!, The 185 had a digital upgrade ignition but was 100% stock. I'd love another one. Proper little smokers.
I know this is Left 4 year old video but thought I'd throw on my two cents I was a professional assembler for 2 years I use the Bauer it never failed. the 3 amp hour battery only took 45 minutes to charge with the fast charger if even that long plus it never got hot for the cost Bauer outdoes any top name brand IMO
Hi Jake! Thanks for the video. I'm getting these for my 97 Miata as well. Is the recommended 5" measurement for the front AND rear or only rear? What is it for the front then? Thanks Jake!
1st Gen Geo Tracker or Sidekick is a good option, though the heavier Liberty would be better on the street in the opinion of some. I'm a Tracker guy myself, have a few.
I have one of these from 2007 and it's awesome. It's not ridiculously fast but man you can make it do some crazy stuff with a few minor adjustments to bars and suspension.
How much boost you getting before and after the HX35? What did you set the wastegate to? Ive got a 96 12 valve and contemplating on replacing the H1C with an HX35W
I don't have a good reference before swapping. After the swap, I get up to 32psi in 3rd and 35psi in 4th. That's with the waste gate locked shut. I hear that peak boost is not much different between the H1C and HX35W, but the HX35W spools up much easier. If you're looking for more power/boost, I'd check out a Borg Warner S300 or Holset HX40.
The washer box is illegal. The pipe between the box and the trap must be at least 18”. Other than that everything looks good. Apparently it passed but I’d fix it. This is one of those things that code really matters. If your washing machine pumps too fast, it could overflow the standpipe before the trap can empty. It can also pump so hard that it forces the water through the trap and there isn’t enough left to trap sewer gas
