I'm running the Cusco RS 2 way in my car now... and let me say that it has done more for rear end grip than any other mod so far... that includes shocks, pinapples, camber adjustment and good tires... it will try and turn the inside wheel whilst parking and doing tight turns on the street and will clunk a little when cold, but none of the harsh banging that I have experienced with some of the more agro diffs... once you adjust your driving style to suit ie stay off the throttle and 'coast' when you have lots of steering lock on its fine... it is the more street friendly of the Cusco range as it uses springs to lessen the shock... the MZ is the agro one At DECA (motokhana) I have also had to change driving style... where once I could do a handbrake turn whilst staying in 2nd (it would light up the unloaded tire which would bring the revs up and I could power away) now it just grips and bogs and I need to use 1st gear... once it is out sideways tho it feels much more controllable, and most importantly much quicker the whole 2 way thing hasn't been an issue yet but I haven't been onto a proper track... it will lock the rears if you downshift too harshly but that kinda helps turn in lol

faxed my form off! hey Russ Sandown is okay for standard belt, but PI and circuits with long fast corners suck... mainly because you have to grip the wheel so tight to not slide out of your seat (I have recaro and its still a fight)... makes it hard to counter steer or steer at all for that matter! Sandown is okay cos its just brake, turn in, apex, out

Grand Theft Auto Iv For Ps3 And Xbox360
NickR33 replied to Beer Baron's topic in PC & Games Discussion
what the hell is wrong with people... you can walk up to any random on the street and blow their head off with a shotgun but if you go to the strippers nipples are censored/covered up... what's worse, random psychotic violence or a bit of nudity! just doesn't seem balanced to me love the graphics when you blast a car with machine gun fire... but that's about it -
phew never been scammed... just lucky I guess! I did buy a fuel pump from a forum sponsor that never arrived... it wasn't sent registered post but upon me contacting him to ask where it had got to the seller immediately sent another pump to me which arrived a couple of days later... he then said he would chase down the missing pump with Aus Post... that's pretty nice considering I could have just been lying that I never received it Always pays to send it registered but sometimes the margins are so tight to be competetive in the parts market they try and save on the shipping etc

oh and then there was the accident right outside my place on Dandenong rd at about 4am on a Sunday morning... they stacked it into a power pole and then spent the next 2 hours yelling and screaming at each other about who was going to say they were driving etc as they were all pissed... my cousin was killed by a drunk driver so I was about 2 secs away from getting my bat out and doing some vigilate shit but my GF ever the calm one made me stay in bed while she called the cops If I had of got out of bed none of them would ever be driving again... or walking for that matter
-
mate was following a commode down dandenong rd last Saturday... middle of the day... doing 70km/h in the right hand lane... when the commode suddenly mounts the curb and starts driving along the median (grass) narrowly missing trees and poles... it then swerves back onto the road, to only mount the kerb again a few metres later... my mate freaks out and pulls alongside... only to see two completely smacked out young people (about 20) driver almost asleep at the wheel and passenger passing out... he starts beeping and yelling at them to pull over but they are almost unconscience and ignore him... he called the cops and reported the rego but what else can you do in that situation!? stupidity and selfishness are a dangerous combo... and when will the government learn you don't need a 'performance" car to kill yourself or others... a V6 commode will go plenty fast enough to cause mass damage

good luck all! ps. what car are adz and chris in? I heard the GTR had 'issues'
-
I will... I'm still a little 'emotional' I mean if Bill Gates wasn't such a nice guy now I would be flying to the states to personally throw it at his head they guy in EB who sold me the ps3 reckons he has been through 4 360's... one of them lasted a total of 10 minutes out of the packaging before it self destructed... I would be homicidal
-
bare in mind pumps don't like sucking air... it can damage them
-
using it as a door stopper... nah its just sitting there at the moment, I'll send it back to Microsoft one of these days... nope no hdmi port
-
went home sick from work the other day so on the way home bought a PS3 GTA 4 bundle... I have to say the console feels far superior to the 360 in terms of bulid quality... It runs soooooo much quieter and no where near as hot as the 360... after playing the 360 for an hour you could take the disk out and fry an egg on it! Very happy with the purchase although the graphics on GTA 4 aren't exactly flawless so can't really tell how it stacks up in that area... we will see how GT 5 compares to Forza 2 in the juicy graphics stakes anyone want to buy some 360 games lol
-
haha Racepace std rwd cup... who talked Ben into that!
-
I used to have to prop my playstation 1 on its side to get it to play games ... but it still worked... wish that trick worked with the 360...
-
nicest 33 GTSt's Ive seen to date... but let's not get carried away its just a 33 GTS't with a 'theme' to the modification (albeit a very well put together theme) If it is in fact a Nismo proto you have diminished its value by adding aftermarket parts
-
haha too true... Kalli is keen as hell to go see the shep strippers, I'll have to man up next time
-
and the prettiest GTR award goes to... Leewah! love the wheels/midnight purple combo
-
Nice work as always Sarah! after the next deca I'm buying you a drink:)
-
haha I had no idea... they should make those gates wider... just for me;)
-
I almost went out and bought a datto after that effort!
-
yep me lol nah it cleared up as soon as I drove out the gate and hasn't puffed even the smallest amount of smoke since... it has happened before at the last Deca and only appears after a hard stop into the gate, I think somehow oil is finding it way into the intake might be from the cracked breather pipe I dunno... there is a smell of coolant in the car now as well so I think I have a few leaks... damn old cars! Well done on your results BTW
-
140kw and your still 1 sec faster than me on the long wang and about 2 sec faster on the skid pan (when I don't hit anything... which isn't often)... your not allowed to get more power!... in fact I think next time you should be forced to put the seats back in ... actually you should be forced to take out my seats and have them in your car as well lol I'm coming with RE55s next time... might make up for my lack of skill... 'might' wish I could have stayed for the battles, been watching the vids and they look like heaps of fun... best part of the day IMO
-
do you have Adobe Image Ready and Photoshop CS? if not you can just send them to me and I can do it...? otherwise you will need to D/L a gif making program, there is heaps of freeware out there
-
Thanks to everyone for putting this on again, we had a blast as usual... had planned to hang around for the festivities Sat night but unfortunately we had to head home early for family reasons... I missed the battles too which looked like fun! nice photos birdman!

Paul, download a film called Zeitgeist or just watch it on the net here http://zeitgeistmovie.com/ I'm not fully convinced by the film but it does raise many questions and is definately a good watch " Zeitgeist, produced by Peter Joseph, was created as a nonprofit expression to inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that very often things are not what the population at large think they are. The information in Zeitgeist was established over a year long period of research and the current Source page on this site lists the basic sources used / referenced and the developing Interactive Transcript includes exact source references and further information. A Q & A page is also being developed."
