I think it's a myth there is 'plenty of powerfc around' .. I'm not sure whether it's right to be saying that, when it may be true (installed in cars), but trying buying one right now! I can barely see any that have been put up for sale in the last month or so, therefore that doesn't make them 'readily available' to me.. they will become rare and expensive over the next few years, unless something better comes along.

a whole town you can't drive around if you own a modified car.. seems pretty backward, and a little nazi germany.

Been playing Project8 on 360.. the xbox and ps2 versions were handed off by neversoft to another developer. Neversoft themselves are now focusing on PS3 and xbox360.. In Project8 there are a lot of small enhancements, and the graphics kick ass, but with that they've taken out a few things which is a bit annoying. Over XB Live it's pretty awesome fun skating against 8 players. Like the above, I mainly played THPS 3/4.. a little bit of THUG1. Project8 is good if you haven't really played them for a few games. Bit like the EA stuff. Downhill Jam is a totally different game more like the snowboarding games.. just for the Nintendo Wii.. The use of the motion controller should make it worth playing, despite the graphics not being quite up there.

You didn't even PM me back... but it doesn't matter now as I bought a new one as you were taking too long. Do you even have the 360 in your possession yet so you can actually sell it?

If you've got a spare $1300 or so... http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-bo-49-en-70-p62.html

the pictures help.. see if i can find them ..

and market value $50k - $20k in 5.4 seconds as well

too much.. I bought 5 squizzes for 75c just the other week

Yeah, that's just because Australia is so far behind the rest of the world when it comes to broadband speed Are there any power supply issues between here and Japan, or does it have a switchable 120/240v supply? or are you running it if off a different transformer?

yeah, they've already been pulling apart the unit.. doesn't have to be sony drive. rofl.. that's not a *legal* function.. to be honest, people should at least buy a few games to support those that spend all the money to give you something to play with.

I'm not sure there.. the tune is probably their intellectual property, as they have spent the time doing the research and getting it to where it is. To do that from scratch, they'd charge the consumer 10 times as much. It's probably the same as my industry, we own the code, and the way in which the system is designed. If not, any john cobbly would pay the $x for our system we've build and developed over months and months, and could therefore on-sell that to anybody else they knew, and profit from that many times over. In effect, why go to us at all after that, even though we spent $x getting the system to where it is, and using our knowledge and knowhow. The logistics of a car ECU tune aren't altogether that different. I have no problems with the policy to be honest, as long as the consumer *knows* this is the case. If they don't like it, they are welcome to go elsewhere.

true, in an ideal world the public would expect that, but usually not how it works. case that stuck in mind when I was 18 and in a friend's car.. he got done for speeding 30km/hr the limit.. cop said "oh you're inspector such and such's kid huh.. well get your dad to give me a ring in the morning and we'll maybe forget this happened'. Another friend is an officer in melb, and he gets away with a fair bit.. The stories he can tell of other cops pushing things over the law is sickening at times. It's the just the way it is.. still happens there.. just less likelihood of running into somebody you know .

That's quite funny. That your dad knows him.. Usually they just let you off in that situation, unless you've done something very wrong. Maybe he was just trying to prove something to your old man?

for 6-12 months.. How many consoles have you guys owned? Do you remember when the original Xbox was the shit, and how the ps2 was meant to be the greatest thing since sliced bread with it's fancy "Emotion" engine, and 3 times faster than your PC? http://archives.cnn.com/2000/TECH/computin...ion.engine.idg/ -- doop, doop do.. 12 months later PC's were starting to pull well ahead, 2 years on it, was "ok", 6 years on it's very dated. It's just the natural cycle. You also have to remember 1920x1020i is nothing special (a well specc'ed PC's will run tasty 3D games at that res, and have for 2-3 years).. and a lot of the PS3 and Xbox 360 games only run at 720p.. that's only about 1024x768 resolution of which is only minimum spec on a PC game these days. That said, I'll buy a PS3 when it comes out as I like console games and just turning it on

bought

You mean they told the truth? omfg.. and you get angry about that? you'd rather they take your money and try to weasel out when you make a claim? nice..

so you did pick up then?

looks like any other hyundai?

I do.. I'm just not a taxi driver, nor do I have them in the car when i drive to work each day.. or go to the supermarket, or drive the car in anger, or the other 6 days of the week. That one day a week I want to carry people around, or my bike or other large crap (which would never fit in a sedan anyhow) I take the shitbox hatch. If they don't like that, they're welcome to drive their own car

I'll be controversial here.. skyline sedans are useless.. You can carry the same amount of people, you can't fit any more stuff in the back because the seats still don't fold down and the back seat area and boot is only that little bit larger. It just makes it easier that couple of times you have 4 or 5 people in the car to get in and out if you have a sedan. They don't look bad, but having owned a few sedans, they're just too in the middle. Hatch, 2 door, or wagon. Sedans are just something weird in the middle!

josh = definition

stock exhaust i bet.. what it is with people turning up the boost to 16 on a near stock car and thinking it's all fine? don't these things have instruction manuals telling you not to do that?

you mean this dave? http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=143556

i think what he meant was.. hold the door while u get out, then put your foot on the ground.. not other way around.. works wonders..lol
