Guys, hopefully someone can help me out.

2 days after buying a new PC and given my handme down to the GF, what happens but the MB blows a cap. I can't afford another new computer so I'm hoping someone else has and old MB that can help me out.

The MB needs to have AGP and be able to run an Intel Prescott 2.8E. It's about 4-5 years old.

If you want to dump a whole PC on me and let me figure what/if it works I'm open to that. No CRT monitor needed thanks.

Thanks in anticipation.

I hate motherboards. Mine went nuclear and I'm still waiting for a replacement.

I do have an older mobo here in a case and it's AGP but I can't remember the specs on it. Will have a look after work.

That would be great. I centainly don't want to pay $50 for another older motherboard that may die soonish and all for a computer not worth $100.

I have an old board that should be suitable, its about 3 years old, its been collecting dust but should be fine once gone over with an air duster.

It has AGP and fits a Prescott.

Hi NissanFan,

I received your board unfortunatly it is a Socket 775 board and does not fit my Prescott which is a Sockett 478

Still I'll try and pass it on to someone that needs it. PM me your bank account details and I'll forward you the postage.

Anyone else with a spare MB with a Sockett 478?

      R34 Diff oil

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones

      No. Well, some people "seem to use redline shockproof in the diff". Most do not. I would only contemplate it if you have badly worn CW&P gears. And no. No-one in their right mind has ever put ATF into a diff. Any normal diff/gear oil of the right viscosity will do. Whatever takes your fancy. Castrol, Nulon, Penrite, Redline MT range. Whatever. It's just gears. 75W-90 or 80W-90 is typical. I think that GL-5 is hard to avoid these days, although I think that a GL-4 is probably preferred, given the vintage of the equipment. At least Redline offer a number of GL-4 oils. If you have a clutch type LSD instead of the VLSD, then of course you need a proper LSD oil. Anything from any of the same names above. If you have a helical LSD, then it does not require LSD oil, and the recco is the same as for the VLSD. You don't want the LSD friction modifiers in the oil for a non-clutch type LSD if you can avoid it.

      You may want to list it up for a little higher - This price is much lower than you may realize. Here you're pretty much selling to people who most likely already have these things on their own rigs. S chassis people eat this stuff up like you'd not believe.
