Quote from S14 DRIFT :

yeah i was so mean saying that a tyre was rubbish must have been so hurtful. i bet he was crying from the pain and tourment.

Actually considered selling the car as i couldnt afford to change the other 2 pirelli's, your comment about them being rubbish was that hurtful :'(

On-topic, the new tyres are goood! the roundabout where i could get wheelspin in the wet no problem is no longer possible and that was the tires over inflated! (yes i should have checked them after getting them fitted...)

Forgot i started this thread!

I was getting bored of no car so just replaced both fronts with vredestein sportrac 3's Got both fitted and wheels balanced for £160. Probably more than what there worth but reviews seemed good and i wanted my car back! :P

Hi, my luck aint holding up too well lately! Managed to get a fairly large bit of metal in my tyre Tried having it plugged but it leaked almost instantly. So in need of a new tyre, i have pirelli p6000 on atm. Garages are wanting £100ish for one tyre :O Seen a few online for about 60ish which is far better.

So any recommendations on where to buy from online? Its a 205/55/16 so if anyone can help it would be great

Already have a ps3 :P On the phone again to tell the i want a full refund on my 1yr of gold and a contact number for there legal team as ill be taking this to watchdog + consumer direct! See how that shakes them

Oh, and i cant exactly get rid of it... who'd buy an xbox that cant play new games? I wouldn't!

Hi, really ****** off right now with xbox. I've spent around the past 3hours on the phone with them and tbh it was a complete waste of time.

Ill start from the beginning, went to asda after work grabbed me forza 4 and headed home to find the disc didnt work, oh great! I hadnt played/updated the xbox in 2/3months? atleast that anyway! So i hopped on the ol' google to find that there was a new disk format that the new games are using and that some of the unlucky few with old consoles werent compatible with these new disks. I thought ok, ill give them a call im sure theres an easy fix to this as they have broke it not me. But no... After speaking to the supervisors supervisors supervisor and 3 colleagues before that they want to charge me £70 to "repair" my "faulty" console even though they have said "yes, its due to the new disks its our fault". I fail to see why im having to fork out £70 to play new games even though they have broke it, which i think everyone would agree on? Other people with this problem were contacted or told to get in contact for a free replacement and it seems that because ive taken a while to get in contact that there just trying to get some easy money from me.

So my question is, who do i contact now? Tomorrow ill be ringing watchdog thats for sure and ill be ringing xbox again to pester them more. Is there anyone else i should contact? or better still is there a way to contact someone at microsoft who is higher than the call centres?

Been getting told to activate windows for the past month and a bit, just cant be bothered finding an activation tool! Dont need to activate it tbh i already have a black wallpaper (non-activated forces that anyway) I dont use windows updates, i dont use IE nor WMP or any of there security features i get a box telling me it aint genuine appear but if i dont close it and just minimise it, it doesnt pop up again! Never use any of them features in an activated copy anyway so i see no need to purchase it. I never have and probably never will have a genuine copy of windows waste of money tbh, way i see it is they havent lost money from me as i never intended to spend it!

If i do find a activation tool however ill PM you it if you wish?

I'd personally say S13! Alot nicer looking car and a far larger tuning base id say so many tuners and enthusiasts out there that you arent going to struggle to seek help or spare parts! Ideally he should go out and test drive a few examples of both and make a decision based on what he feels most comfortable driving!

Well it looks like my primary has packed in after 3years! So im on the hunt for a new one, I've got a 160gb atm and a 1tb 2nd one that I keep most things on but its nearly full so ideally I'd like another tb.

So what would you guys recommend? Of course is like as cheap as possible

Cheers!

Hello there i have 3 devices but only 1pair of headphones and getting down on all 4's everytime i want to change from the PS3 or xbox or PC is just annoying! So im looking for a cheap solution to be able just to have a switch to do it!

The PS3 and Xbox are both using the red/white to a 3.5mm atm and the PC is also a 3.5mm.

Ive raided the interwebs but something like this seems hard to come by! I can solder pretty well so id be willing to build one, seen a few build yourself ones on sites but i get confused with them give me a bunch of parts on a desk and ill figure it out but in terms of reading how to do it sourcing the parts just makes me head go crazy!

So if anyone could be of assistance it would be greatly appreciated!

Everyones hating on PSN... it could honestly happen to any company... it has most likely happened to xbox before, but the simple fact that a single thing like that would send so many customers away xbox never let on about it and dusted it under the carpet. PSN have had the balls to put there hands up and say ok guys we made a mistake were sorry... they have provided support telling us how to be extra vigilant of fraud on your bank accounts.. it aint like they have went haha we failed screw guys.

I wont be moving to xbox anytime soon purely for the fact that xbox charges you for online, yeah the servers on PS3 are a bit worse but most of the time you never actually notice it.

I just dont understand why were getting involved... the goverment supposidly have no money but are able to just go and start fighting for something that we have no roll in. It really does my head in that we get involved in things that have no effect on our country :S. I may be failing to see the whole picture and my opinion may seem arrogant but its how i feel

Seen this on facebook earlier didnt cick it, have now though

Quote from Bose321 :

You guys are lucky... I have to review this piece of crap...

Review : Dont buy it.

Think that sums it up im going to try 1 last time tomorrow to give it a chance though i have a sneaky suspicion it just isnt going to pull through

Just went back on thought id give it a second chance, done the off-road race put it this way, it reminds me of the WRC game that came out a few months back... i won it of course as the AI dont seem to drive and just sit still, seen a impreza for sale thought sweet ill buy it see what its like... one of the things that pissed off most it has no dumpvalve? you cant hear any form of turbo, its little things like this that ruin it. Oh and the fact that you are either braking or not braking

There isnt ffb in the game as such its "vibration" ive stuck center spring on to 52% and rotation down too 540 then played about with ingame settings till it was drivable (note drivable not enjoyable) the game certainly wasnt designed to be used with a wheel! The brake has no travel its near enough on or off slightly improved over the beta though. Hardcore sucks also cant notice much difference from sport and hardcore.. All in all i wouldnt recommend purchasing it for PC if you plan to use a wheel as its just shocking!

Joe93 please

I fixed up the Lerts sign, sorted the height and redone it in snow as dirt is fugly imo :P and added a heart <3

well unless we know your budget then we cant really help you, my mate gets brand new peds for £799, but with out a budget we cant look at what is available for you

Tap the throttle as you down shift would be the best way its known as heel-toe but you only have two pedals so its just ermm foot foot?

Looks it :'(

Any Chance i can be added please? Joe93

Ok, i might sound a complete retard here, but im trying to work out this button mapping for the G27 and it just isnt working! can anyone give me a list of where to map which buttons! or tell me what buttons are what? would be much appreciated!

curently installing it to my hard drive! Add me on PSN people - iJew93 (And no im not anti-jew )

Wouldnt it make sense just to go out and give it a little start up in the garage and leave it ticking over for a few mins? or better still just remove the battery..? it was a cosey -17 here this morning and -23 up in the hills nearby! temperatures risen from -11 to -4 though and the sky is gradually getting more and more orange, i fear some snow is heading in! again... to add to the 7" or so thats frozen...

our snow here stopped when it got to a foot deep! and now well now its silly to venture outside without sevral layers of clothing, temperature has been below -15C each night here and not even getting close to 0C during the day think the top tempt was -6C here today! got icicles hanging from the houses that are 3foot long if not more though some snow forecast for tomorrow so might add to the fun
