  1. I would also be concerned about the durability cause a stealth black intercooler with stonechips/flaking paint will look very shit house and cheap. Would a black mesh insert over the intercooler be a better option and also guard against said stone chips?
  2. Two word: Lada Niva.
  3. Im looking around for an aftermarket ecu at the moment. PowerFC does look very nice and im tempted to try find one, but what competition is there: Im planning to build up a street car for occasional track use so it needs to be able to run all of the nice stuff the factory ECU runs + A bigger turbo + supporting mods and it has to be smooth and return good fuel economy. I know a lot is in the tune but im guessing a lot is also in how good the system is as well. What other options are there?
  4. I WILL say that i take this with a grain of salt - Although, I have had a very bad experience with the NSW Police which i wish to keep private, but it involved serious police incompetence and also 2 police who were standing side by side tending completely different, contradicting statments to court. I think that our federal government needs to stand up and do something about this crap because our police force are under-educated, stupid and useless. This is my personal experience so I guess what I am trying to do is challenge the system to explain/resolve these issues.

  6. Im a Business systems administrator for Altium (www.altium.com) australian company, curruntly studying my Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer Certification. If it beeps, moves or has power in it, its my job to ensure sure it makes money for the company. i do about 37k in a relatively junior position, but hopefully this will grow as i get more tickets
  7. I was referring to the analogue to digital converter chip that would allow the XBOX to display video on a digital panel via DVI-D or HDMI (ie DIGITAL SIGNAL). EG Plasma, LCD or Projector. The XBOX does not have the capability to transmit digital video from its display port. This is a major screw up for M$. Hopefully they will resolve this in the next revision as it is quite simple and very cheap (like maybe 15-20c) to buy this component wholesale and design it into the motherboard of the system. As I understand it and i may be corrected but the XBOX can only do component, composite or VGA video. BTW mate there is no thing as a chip that modifies the resolution (upscaler) I was refering to this as encoding the signal from the GPU to DVI/HDMI These numbers refer to resolution: (1080P = 1920*1080, 720P = 1280*720) You dont want to screw around with interlacing as it is half of the progreessive scans resolution and looks shit house. Google is your friend
  8. Hey one of the guys on this forum DANSR33 has a pic in his sig of a nice VS bodykit on a 33 Gtst with dual tips. It looks pretty mad!
  9. I dont care how long this takes, I am starting on my R33 GTST back to original showroom and beyond project so I cant wait for this Badge. If there is anything needed at all just give a shot ands ill see what I can do. I know a lot of graphics and signmaking (stickers etc) dudes...
  10. My mate Junkers got an Xbox360 for Christmas and less than a week later it blew up. Red lights on the front, it was completely Brickified. M$ are going to replace the unit so we will have to see what they have done to resolve the issue which appears to be heat related. From the new Xbox is going to have a die shrink on the IBM PPC Cpu from 90nm to 65nm this will aid in cooling. It is exactly the same wafer and has the same features. It is still up in the air as to whether the official 2nd gen Xbox will have the digital compositor chip to send a Digital (DVI or HDMI) signal to a display. Currently the Xbox cannot output a digital signal as it does not have the chip that translates and upscales the video. In this sense the PS3 is much more advanced as it DOES have HDMI/DVI output. Since Micro$oft has not officially given any details other than the die shrink on the CPU we will have to wait and see what sort of rabbit they pull out of the hat.
  11. All wang no stang. Who cares about Sergent Dolittle. Im sure he likes chasing down little kids for the media. Theyll be real stoked to be on the front cover of the news paper. Wankers. How abotu catching drug dealers and helping society>? Nar probably already on teh dealers payroll. FKRS. So you you dont like Pod filters ay>? how about crack heads? there are more crack heads than pod filters but who the f*k is counting?
  12. I have had a few beers. Will this help make my car sound more like a jet taking off. Will this also help my car take off liek a jet? I am looking for a big mid range punch rather than top end (3500 + RPM for full boost is very nice, lower is much better) I want a responce/torque monster rather than a drag car. I am swaying towards a 25/30, 28/35 - although a bolt on sounds very nice as it makes everything look legal! What the general consensus? As per my sig i have a S2 33 gtst Thankyou. That is all dont call me before 12 tomorrow
  13. Actually Dad drives my car while i'm out at Bathurst. He once managed to use a tank of fuel in 280ks which was an effort since its nearly stock. He said it puts a smile on his face too I still remember the first drive I had of my car. I was about to buy a Gen3 VY Calais and my mechanic Gary suggested that we walk next door to Northshore Prestige and take a look at a Skyline. I picked out my mint 97' GTST, took it for a spirited test drive and was sold straight away... I paid cash for it 2 days later!
  14. Price dropped to $260 Sorry I cant go any lower than this ridiculous price. Check out the review on Guru3D in my first post as it is the card thats reviewed. It is based on the NV40 GPU which is unlockable using a simple piece of software from within windows at no danger of damage to the card (Rivatuner from www.guru3d.com) to 16 piexl pipes/6 Vertex shaders. I have verified that all shader/vertex units on the card are fully operational. The card is based on the 6800GT reference design and i have included the original 6800GT reference cooler. This is a native AGP card and is not one of the dodgy PCI-E NV42 cards with the bridge chip installed on a non-NVIDIA designed cheapo board. It has high quality Voltage regulator modules and a very high performance low noise cooler. If you dont want it at this price i'm keeping it for myself
  15. I have had the sender replaced in my 33 but I still find that the gauge is inaccurate and fluctuates quite a bit. With the empty light on for about 20km and freaking out about running out of fuel i discovered that I had about 15 litres left in the tank.
  16. As long as you are good at need for speed underground you'll be fine bro
  17. Go back there with 10-15 mates and ask if you can take his car for a drive. Thrash the crap out of it and give it back with no fuel/clutch/tyres/brakes. See how the F**ker likes having his pride and joy thrashed. Then again people who do that generally take pride in nothing
  18. We have a family property out near Bathurst and every time I head out there Dad convinces me that I should drive his Landcruiser so I don't get the Line dirty I get a smile on my face every time I get back to Sydney and start up the GTS.
  19. And i think that 99% of the public agree with you myself included. Im on the last year of my green p's so none of this is going to affect me anyway. I think the issue is with HOW the authorities are going about regulating and stopping this sort of anti social behavior. Do they even look at existing legislation before adding new laws or are they just on a never ending quest with the media for ratings and statistics. Here is a simple solution. DRIVER EDUCATION. Its pretty simple. You EDUCATE young drivers and TEACH them how to drive. Put them on a skidpan and show then how shit their Hairdresser wang cars actually are then they wont feel the need to live life a quater mile at a time. Sure it wont be free, but on a cost to benefit ratio it would definitely break even.
  20. I'm all for saving lives, but at the end of the day all of this propagander crap is doing is generating statistics to help this incompetent useless waste of oxygen government get re-elected. Why don't we actually do some research instead of putting band aids on a system that has failed the population and is actually affecting the civil liberties of the tax paying pubilc.
  21. Yeah its a bit of a joke. Pedestrians have more rights on the road than cars. Harold Scrubby is a bigger joke than Ronald McDonald. Do you see me driving on the footpath? Yeah I don't think so. Absolute waste of oxygen. This is utter madness where unqualified people are making decisions that DIRECTLY affect the lives of many law abiding people.
  22. PRICE DROPPED TO $260.00 I cant go any lower as it owes me too much money!!!
  23. PRICE DROP I have for sale my Point Of View 6800GS Video Card http://www.guru3d.com/article/Videocards/314/ It has an Arctic Cooler installed which helps the card to run much cooler than with the stock HSF. http://www.arctic-cooling.com/vga2.php?idx=40 (I will also include the factory cooler). It plays all of the latest games without any problems. This is a powerful video card and is built off the Nvidia 6800GT reference design using high quality components. It is also software unlockable to 16 pixel pipes/ 6 Vertex Shaders (6800GT/Ultra Spec) as its the NV40 GPU. I paid $450 8 months ago and recently spent $44.00 on the cooler. I'm willing to part with it for $260.00 ONO Sorry guys this is as low as I can go If you are interested call me on 02 9975 7710 during business hours and ask for Christian or email me [email protected]. It is available for pick up or delivery (at your cost) in Sydney.
  24. Mate, Ill swap you my massive Blitz pod filter (Lots and lots and lots of induction noise) with adapter plate and support bracket for your factory airbox and snorkel. If your keen PM me, I live in Sydney. Shit u live in Melbourne... My bad
  25. My bad mate! I was a bit pissed when I watched it originally and could have sworn... Lol its about 700Mb and i'm going to keep seeding this because its an awesome piece of info to pass onto your SS Falcodore loving neighbour. Now put that in your peace pipe and smoke it
