Any DOTA players in here? After holding off for ages I have just bitten the bullet and installed it and have played around 20 games so far.

Played a lot of HoN back in the day, and got up to near 2000 PSR, but started to rage too much (much to the GFs dismay) and got rid of it.

Username is CB3 if anyone is up for a game. Have been playing Lich, Lion and Dragon knight in limited pick to get used to the game and characters but I am getting to the stage where I will start branching out...too many noobs :P

i've been getting into it, but starting out is hard because you get lumped in limited pick or AP games with the new and just plain horrible players.

Have branched out into my old HoN players such as Mirana.

I like to play support/ganker any recommendations for characters?

One of the best ganker is Kunkka, one of the heroes I want to learn.

I usually use Spirit Breaker, he's easy to use. Just grab a BKB and charge in ;).

ok, so The International main event is starting in a few hours.

I couldnt care less about DOTA or valve or teams or whatever. but esports fascinates me in a mind-boggling kind of way. $20mil+ prize pool. over $18mil of that is taken from in-game purchases.

There are paid-entry screenings in each capital city in Aus. including one at Crown in melbourne for the final (kicks off at 2am local time I think), and for some reason I'm tempted to attend. I've watching maybe 20mins of a DOTA stream once before, but I think its just the draw that normal spectator sports have with added weirdness.

      Should I use rust converter on this?

      Should I use rust converter on this?

      By PranK · Posted

      One of the first jobs with the E39 is making sure the tailgate stays up. In BMW fashion they made a little cavity under the roof to hide the dampers rather than putting them down the side like everybody else.  As you can see I have these little cavities that house the dampers. When I cleared one out and vacuumed as much crap as I could out of it I noticed a fair bit of rust. The cavity is bone dry, even after all that rain we had only a few days ago so I'm assuming that whatever allowed the moisture in is fixed but I'd like to treat the rust in there.  I was thinking of just blasting it full of rust converter but I didn't know if this would be beneficial considering I can't actually get in there to prep anything.  Maybe there's a better product?  Thanks guys

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The stock boost solenoid is just a valve. Power it and it is open. Unpowered, it is closed. When it is closed, there is no boost bleed out through the solenoid back to the inlet. The wastegate sees all the boost pressure, thus you get the wastegate's spring pressure as your boost pressure. 5 psi. When it is open, it lets some boost escape. This causes the static (boost) pressure in the line to the wastegate to be lower than the pressure in the intercooler pipe. There is probably a small restrictor in the solenoid or one of its lines to limit the flow rate of the escaping air, which limits how far the static pressure can fall, which limits the extra boost. The boost has to climb above the original/wastegate setpoint until the wastegate sees 5 psi. You get 7 psi in the intercooler pipework. A manual boost controller is exactly the same setup, just without the ability to change it on-off. It's always set to whatever you set it to. There is a small leak from the boost controller. The more you screw the adjuster in, the more it leaks, the lower the pressure seen at the wastegate and the higher the boost will be. So, yes, your diagrams are correct.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      Hi everyone, Apologies in advance if this feels like a topic covered multiple times. I'm only asking because some of the old topics I found are missing images now. I'm in the process of getting a manual boost controller (BC). Nothing fancy, just getting a manual one for now as I don't plan to go crazy with it and would not go over 10 PSI. My car is not jacked up on boost steroids to do crazy numbers. I want to understand the OEM setup of the boost solenoid and vacuum lines on the R34 GTT so I know what needs to be changed when I do install the BC. I sketched the current setup to the best I could see and it's on the diagram attached. If the boost controller 'Wastegate Arrow' goes from nipple 1 to 2. My understanding is that the red vacuum line's "F" connector-end should be connected to BC nipple #2? Nipple #1 is meant to have the "pressure source" so what vacuum line would that be? Is it the green vacuum line?  From what I have read here, the OEM boost solenoid is not used at this point. So that can come out and then I can just plug the nipple that usually connects to the blue vacuum line?  So would the final setup look something like this?   Thanks in advance. I don't want to already be knee-deep into pulling out vacuum lines before understanding this. I'm a noob when it comes to boost setups so trying to learn as I go.
