nice rant 8/10 !!

i knew ghost rider would be shit, good to see you confirmed it..

the last time I went to the movies was to see Casino Royale (was gonna be Borat but finished dinner quicker than expected)... before that I can't even remember but it would have been at least a year or more.

I agree with your rant Beau, and also personally I'd rather be comfy on the couch with a glass of wine, than in a movie theatre :wave:

Thanks Shell :( But only 8/10?! what happened to you shell? you used to be cool...

Ofcourse at home you dont have a massive screen and uber speakers, but you get to finish the movie without wanting to punch someones lights out.

P.S. Love the new avvy :wave:

Loving my new Adsl2+ connection

Just a quick question... I've setup port forward and unblocka and just wondering if these speeds are decent via torrents (Azureus FTW)

was downloading with 7 seeders and was getting around 60kB/s

then went up to 9 seeders and between 100kB/s and 120kB/s

now, for me this speed is orgasmic because my torrent download speed is normally (on 256 adsl) 25kB/s at its peak! so im not complaining... but im just wondering if this is decent for an adsl2+ connection?

Are you on the 24mb down, 1mb up ???

If so those speeds are pretty average i don't know much about torrents but in theory you should be able to download at a much faster rate than that. Make sure that your router has all the required ports open as well as your desktop firewall if you use one. Then again you could just have some slow seeds.

I only have a 1.5mb down / 256kb up and i can download at around 155kbps

depends on line distance as to what you will get at the house. I am on the 24mb and 1 up and I am only getting 10mb download simulated and 800 up. Torrent I can get anything from 5k to ???? depending on the amount of seeders.

And that Sir is why I hate torrents I am too impatient to wait for it to possibly pick up in speed and whenever I opened up the ports required to allow it to go quick my pc got smashed with attacks. Luckily my desktop firewall client stopped them all but it still just made me a little uneasy

Torrent I can get anything from 5k to ???? depending on the amount of seeders.

well ive setup portforward and unblocka... is there anything else i need to do?

im currently downloading scarface for PS2 and its at 25kB/s-30kB/s on 9 seeders... WTF!? this adsl2+ better start getting some awesome download speeds or im downgrading to 1.5mb

Go to microsoft.com find a sizeable download eg 50mb + and start downloading it. Tell us how quick it's going. I will put money on it's just a dodgy torrent issue nothing to do with your ADSL 2+ (you probably wont be getting the 24mb but you will at least be getting 14mb+

    • Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.
    • My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )
    • Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?
    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
