GOt my PS3 the other day, and a copy of Fight Night 3, Awesome Boxing game.. soo addictive. Hard wired a Cat 6 cable from router in Study, to my Room. and put in a point, coz Wireless is gay and slow. Its downloading stuff quicker than my PC. and my pc is pretty quick. over 1mb/s. Very happy with it.

Good one :) Yeah I use an internet cable connection with my PS3 too, works excellently.

PS Store is good. Downloaded Virtua Tennis last night, looks & plays really well, really easy & catchy. It's a video game my gf will actually play with me so I'll pick up a copy as it’ll be a great 2 player game. I remember when we used to play Virtua Tennis on PS2 at a mates too, good competitive fun.

Im running Wireless perfectly on my PS3, 100% stability and very fast download speed.

I guess it depends where your router is positioned in relation to your PS3 though.

yeah those deals are a bit of a rip though. i mean:

second hand PS2 has got to be worth $100 and games say $30 each. The sad thing is those very games cost $100 each and the PS2 $700 so that's $1700 worth to get a $300 discount. :whistling:

This is the best thing since sliced bread! ‘ok well actually a hell of a lot better than that but you get the drift’

PC / PS3 Media Server *FREE

So awesome, via LAN cable or wireless you can link your PC up to your PS3 & watch any movie, song, or pictures via your PS3 on your TV. The largest TV in my house is connected up to my PS3 so now I can watch the hundreds of TV shows & movies I have on my computer through this media server all on the big screen, so handy!, previously I was converting all my favourite stuff to MP4 then constantly burning DVDs, not anymore! :(

I'd say sony will have a firmware update that will stop that at least for a little while.

No, quite the opposite actually, they released firmware 1.8 specifically to include Media Server support, there’s big “Find Media Server” icons in the XMB now, WMP 11 Media Server & Nero Media Home also work.

Why you always gota be so negative dude? You know you come across as little whinging b#tch with all the pessimistic comments you post. Are you Emo or something? Sounds like you need something to bring some joy into your life man so you’re not always constantly knocking everything, you must be emo I swear.

Sony aren’t stupid, they know what people want. They’re going all the right ways with their firmware releases, they get better every time. You should read about the upcoming future releases like 2.0 too.

Did you forget the part where I said it was awesome??

The only reason i said "i wouldn't be suprised if they release a firmware update to stop that" is from my experiance with the psp in which sony were always trying to stop exploits like roms, etc, etc.

Yes i do pay out the ps3 quite a bit. Because it has fallen well short of what sony have promised and peoples expectations. I have also said in the past that it will be a great console in the future. At the moment it is not.

Shit like sony saying we will get proper backwards compatibility with the ps2 chip on the ps3. Then removing it and only letting us know about it 1 month before launch. I garuntee that sony owuld of been planning that for much longer seeing as they had to code a software based emulation for both ps1 and ps2.

Then shit like "we can't have vibration cos it interfers with the six axis" now they are releasing a controller with virbration in the future. Sony's cockiness and stupid executives have cost them dearly in the console war.

Like i said before it will be a great console but isn't there yet.

i have zero issue playing ps2 and psx games on my jap spec ps3 .... also they rls a firmware update to fix the issue people were having with the pal spec ps3.

and as geno8r stated the main reason for the update, was to allow you to ""Find Media Server"".

also i dont see the big deal about the vibration feature. i personally don't think rumble did much for gaming BUT some people love it, and i think thats the reason behide sony heading towards releasing another controller.

Also your comment about costing them dearly in the console war, Has no truth what soever the console war has just begun, it could be say that 360 is winning the battle at the moment but for the so called "war" its far from over....

like i have said before, if you don't have anything positive to say dude keep it to yourself or start a "what is wrong with ps3" topic

      R32 GTR clutch master cylinder adapters

      By weikleenget · Posted

      I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
