This Is The New Recipe Chat Thread...
BigDirtyJase replied to Houdini's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
Oh...I should wash my car.....I haven't given my car a wash in about 2 months....let's just say a mate of mine goes to me....your car is turning cream (it should be pearl white)....that's how long I haven't washed it for...it's been either too cold or raining to get it washed -
That's that only thing that is bugging me....I don't know what I should do...my car is almost due for new set of pad and rotors. Given how much of a pain it is to get pads and rotors (especially rotors) for S2's I'm either going to do this Stick with the same S2 Brake package but get Dixcel SD (slotted) rotors front and rear with some good pads OR Upgrade to either R33 or R34 pads and rotors - which one of these would be better for my car?? Guessing that R33 or R34 rotors and pads are available locally makes it a better option

Hey all, Well after my old workplace going into liquidation and should be getting paid out sometime soon (hopefully soon - not Christmas as I have been predicting to my old workmates), I'm finally going to spend some cash I get and finally get all the pieces to upgrade my car. What I have already installed Blitz SBC -ID III Spec R Boost Controller Just Jap Return Flow Intercooler GReddy Turbo Timer Autogauge gauges (Volts, Boost, Oil Temp) 3 inch Turbo back exhaust system The Shopping List HKS 2535 Turbo (Already purchased) - been sitting in the shed for a while ISC N1 coilovers (set at either 8kg front 6kg rear or 7kg front 5kg rear) Adjustable Whiteline swaybars front and rear Deatschwerks 600cc Fuel Injectors Z32 AFM + Wiring adaptor Yellow Jackets Coil Packs Deatschwerks DW301 Fuel Pump and Nissan Mounting Kit Deatschwerks Fuel Pump Hardwire Kit Defi Advance CR Gauge Set (Boost, Oil Temp, Water Temp) & Control Unit (the Autogauges are becoming very inaccuate - given they are cheap) Stagea Shift Kit (does anyone know who I'm Melbourne does this and how much does it cost and how many stages do they go up to) Nistune ECU & Tune What should I install first given that this is my daily drive and I'll still be using the car (mainly just to and from the tram stop near my place) up until installation of the Nistune and getting it Tuned. I'm looking to hit 240-250awkw with setup...Do you guys think that is achieveable with this setup??

Since I got 3 desktops and 3 laptops in the house I decided that I wanted to run different AV software for most of them. On my main desktop and both of my laptops I'm running Avast Home (Free)...it's nice and easy My mum's PC, my "work" laptop and my other desktop (torrent downloader) run MSE...I agree with Nismoid...MSE is very good, not too resource hogging and stays updated (thanks to Microsoft Updates) I have Malwarebytes running on most machines but I found that it's picking up alot of false positives and if you have the protection moitoring turn on, it will block out sites (you can turn the website blocking off but it still fails)

I think Gearbox Software brought the Duke Nukem franchise. They got all the devlopment work that 3D Realms did and got Triptych Games (who are ex 3D Realms guys who kept working on DNF) to help them finish the game (also got Piranha Games to help Gearbox with the X360 and PS3 versions)...Gearbox just released what was done with some minor tweaking of their own... You can tell this game should have been done and released around 1999 (when it should have been) to about 2004.....the graphics are very dated and just looks wrong on today's PC's... This is basically what happens when George Broussard kept messing around with the game...change engines mid build which would force to start again from scratch and bascially adding stuff in because other games did that just so they can have in DNF... You can see why Take-Two Interactive got pissed of with 3D Realms was doing and finally had enough....took DNF from them gave it to Gearbox and pretty much said "Give it a small tweak...and release the damn thing" I would say that Gearbox will do something good with the Duke Nukem franchise...let's just hope it doesn't take another 14 years for the next one to come out

You know what I love...this isn't a Rockstar Game. Although it says Rockstar Games Presents: LA Noire on the cover. Rockstar Games may had about 2% involement in the game (other than being the publisher) but the rest of the game was developed by Team Bondi (Aussie crew)...this was "meant" to be a PS3 exclusive a long long time ago but Take-Two Interactive (Rockstar Games Big Daddy) said that it will go multiplatform (L.A. Noire was never annouced as a PS3 Exclusive - SCEA pumped money in the project at the start) I haven't finished the game yet (only brought it over the weekend)...I found it is a refreshing change of pace and something different to play other than open world killing (mind you I enjoyed a game like Heavy Rain (Other than the point your walking around pressing a button to call out for your son Jason - which is my name)) But then again everybody has their on opinion and what I say is what I think and people will agree or disagree with it

if you can Bronx...that would be great

Well I've had a crappy day today...got back from work and went to put some petrol in at the station...only to find that the petrol cap is missing. I guess when I put in petrol last week I must have forgotten to put the cap on and drove off (I was in a rush). I went back to the petrol station where I last filled up and they haven't seen the cap (the guy there says normally people will pick them up and take them which is weird). Now I need to get another petrol cap. Where in Melbourne can I get one that suits a Stagea S2 Thanks in advance

Playtime at Highpoint has them I know they have one with full clutch and H Gate shifter but they might have another one or two of these machines

I've already heard people today doing the "Mark Webber is a choker" comments. I guess he is the only one to blame. Kudos to Button for running a smart race - only 3 stops and leapfrogged both Nando and Webber and steal a 3rd place finish. It seemed that Webber didn't get off the line very well (as usual) and had to defend Vettel and then Nando came from out of nowhere and took the lead in turn 1. Webber was locked in a dog fight with Nando most of the way which played into Button hands with him 3 stopping while the others were 4 stopping but Vettel and Hamilton were long gone. The DRS zone for this race was in a crap position...didn't give drivers enough time to pass...it should have been at the start of the main straight to give drivers a better run... Monaco is going to be interesting in where they are going to put the DRS zone with such a short straight (imagine if they allow DRS everywhere)...and then Canada gets double DRS zones.

Here is the latest news from crash.net re: Yellow Flag Infrigements Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Mark Wevbber and Jaime Alguersuari have all been reprimanded after failing to slow for the yellow flags in the latter stages of today's F1 2011 Spanish Grand Prix. The indiscretions occurred near the end of the 66-lap race, when Team Lotus man Heikki Kovalainen crashed out on lap 51 at turn 4. Despite the reprimands though, no time penalties were applied and thus the result remains unchanged. The full statement from the FIA's stewards of the meeting – namely Paul Gutjahr, Radovan Novak, Mark Blundell and Silvia Bellot - read: The Stewards, having received a report from the Race Director, have considered the following matter, determine a breach of the regulations has been committed... and impose the penalty referred to. Driver / No: Mark Wevbber #2 Driver / No: Lewis Hamilton #3 Driver / No: Jenson Button #4 Driver / No: Jaime Alguersuari #19 Session: Race Fact: The driver set his personal best sector time in Sector 2 while yellow flags were displayed at turn 4 Offence: Breach of Appendix H, Article 2.4.5.1 (b) of the 2011 FIA International Sporting Code. Penalty: Having heard both the driver and team representative and viewed video evidence, the Stewards decide to reprimand the driver. *Edit: Removed all hyperlinks*

Well I'm looking for a place that sells Dixcel rotors locally. I want to get Dixcel SD Rotors (Slotted) front and rear...Got quote $1055 (including shipping) from Greenline Motorsports...it's about $500 just for shipping alone
-
Yes that was my car...I was outside having a smoke when I saw you drive past....I don't see many black Stagea's around
-
Go hit up the reviews on Gamespot or on IGN...they both gave it a good review.... This is a game for me to buy and play...but I'll get it on PS3...the Xbox360 version is on 3 discs
-
Yeah I've seen this around before...it's a alright game but I can't justify constantly dropping coins and upgrading a car online..I think the asian aracades in the city has it and I think Playtime at Highpoint has it... I has a small following here...kinda like the Inital D arcade games

Shows how long I haven't checked the forums...Since when did the all the in fighting start??

That's A Nice Looking Volvo Mate.......
BigDirtyJase replied to Paramour's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
Don't worry I still get the Volvo/Hearse reference all the time...I even make fun of it because it's a laugh...especially if some says "What is it???" My brother as a joke brought me the Volvo SIPS sticker for the rear windows...I put on his car instead...lol -
Saw a white S2 on Spencer St this morning around 8:30ish this morning. Had a Dayz front bar. I think driver took a photo or something. It was behind me until it turned into Bourke St

1. Yeah the Stagea is a very good car. It's a bit on the heavy side but still a very nice car. A 2000 Model car is the Series 2 that has the NEO motor installed. you will get alot bang for your buck when it comes to upgrades/mods. 2. IMO Due to the weight the car has and the distribution of it, The handling is it's not it's greatest thing in the world. on standard height, the front end will want to float at high speeds. Get some good coilovers and it will help (check the suspension thread on here). The brakes are pretty good but if you want people tend to upgrade to R33 disc and calipers (check the Stagea Brakes thread) 3. Check the "Buyer's Guide - The Nissan C34 Stagea" thread and that will answer all your questions 4. I'm not sure on this one. I think you can't as the ATESSA system will start freaking out but one of the guys on here will be able to tell you Do you have a pic of a the car you're looking at??

Hey guys... it's been a long time since I posted on here... Well silly me today left my foglamps on my car when I went to work (yes I know it's meant to ding or something but when you are in a hurry)....when I got back to my car this afternoon my alarm was going off but I couldn't disarm the car Quickly looked around my car (after shutting off the siren) and saw the foglamp switch was on... Got a guy in the car park to give me a jump...and she came back alive..let it sit for about 10 minutes it was touch and go when I got out because the battery was pretty much drained my volt gauge alarm would go off when it dropped below 11V at the lights. As soon as I got on the freeway to get home it started to charge up again...it's now sitting just below 14 volts on idle but the worries are two things 1. I think with the battery going completely flat it has reset everything (obviously the clock and stereo) but my Mongoose alarm will not self arm after 30 seconds...I forgot how to do get to the programming options to turn it on 2. My Greddy Turbo Timer (Full Auto Timer) will not turn on - my guess it's crapped it self...what's the best way of checking that it's truely dead or is there a way to reset it Thanks in advance

Yeah that was me I was getting myself lost on my way to a client...lol

I have both the 360 and PS3 versions of this game (I brought the PS3 edition and "brought" the 360 version). Yes the 360 version looks better than the PS3 version but in the grand scheme of it, it doesn't bother me what platform I play it on. I would say the PS3 version would be updated a little bit to help improve the graphics. I was having fun mucking around...Poker is fun..but I found making some good cash doing the challenge where you shoot the birds. I always have found hunting cougars and going into the red eye mode and shooting them in the face. I have too many occasions where 2-3 cougars will chase me and take me down (still can beleive that one cougar hit can take down a horse) This would look extemely good on PC (give it one year after the console release date so Rockstar can make some money) just hoping it's not a bugged up mess that was GTA IV on release day
