I needed a phone ASAP as my old one got broken at work the other day, so bought this cheap one for £80, as it will most likely end up getting broken again anyway.



For anyone interested, I would highly recommend buying this phone if your looking for something cheap, yet relatively modern. From my experiences so far, it's a great phone. The Camera is fantastic, and it records videos in high quality both visually and audibly. The only thing that lets the phone down is lack of Wi-Fi, and the scrolling can be a little clunky (E.G, you will sometimes open something when you just want to scroll past it.) and if your going to be listening to alot of Music on it like me, buy some better headphones for it. The standard ones are uncomfortable and lack bass.

Also getting this. I occasionally had a problem with my posts too. It would have the symbol to say I have posted in the thread, and then when I click the post count figure to find my post, it says I have not posted in the thread. :grumpy:

Quote from BlueFlame :It would of been better if you did a price enquiry for a new one.

You like German cars (Particularly Hitler wagons.), and you are a grammar nazi. Is there something you are not telling us?

Quote from danowat :My 2lt Mazda does 80mph in 6th at 2100rpm

Alot of 6-Speed Diesels are like this now. My Brothers Megane hits around 3500-4000rpm at 85mph in 5th. When he drops it into 6th, the Revs drop right down to 1500rpm. It's all for economy maaaan.

And Migz, your car was giving pretty much all it could. Top speed would most likely only be achievable in 4th, as the car would not have enough power to reach top speed in 5th (If your car has a 5th gear that is.). Some cars are like this.

In other news!...I just found out my Accords backbox is blowing. So I done a price enquiry for a new one (Bare in mine this is at trade prices!) and it came back at £285 for an OEM Backbox!! Madness!

Looks like I may go ahead and fit a stainless steel one, either aftermarket or from the Accord Type-R, but I haven't decided yet.

Anyone played in the F355 Game Cockpit? That one is awesome! I loved the proper H-Gate! Just a shame the wheel was such hard plastic.

BTW, if you do want to get rid of the parts, send me some pics and a rough price you would be happy with, and I will pass them around Passionford and other places.

I've welcomed the rain we had here with open arms!

I love hot and sunny weather, but it was like a damn sauna here over the past few days.

Loving the pack, but I have a little problem and I'm pretty sure this pack is the cause as it wasn't there before. Maybe I installed it incorrectly?

Anyone else experiencing that? Look at my rear window.

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :Lovely looking Orion Ian. My Mom used to have an old 1.6 Ghia X (Same shape as yours, MK2?) and it was pretty fast for a 1.6 CVH!

If you have that Spoiler, stick it on eBay or www.passionford.com

Providing it's not sagged, you could get quite a few quid for it.

BTW Ian, are you on PistonHeads? I was reading a thread, and came across that exact image of your Orion so I'm guessing it's you?

Sam earlier today....





Sorry to contribute nothing to the thread, but it's not like it matters. The thread has turned upside down within hours (As per usual. This is the LFS Forums after all!) and like I have said many times before, I really doubt any of your dreams will happen as your just too narrow minded and you have your head in the clouds, but I really do wish you all the best in succeeding your goals.

Quote from danowat :Fickle bunch the console lot!, I still play games like Dead rising (4 years old!!!!), so I'll still be playing RDR for a while yet.

I am after JC2 aswell, but am waiting for it to go under my impulse buy threshold (£15-£20)

Quote from Dajmin :That'd be cool. Because unlike racing games, shooters I'm actually not too bad at I guess in terms of longevity the old posse thing is the way forward, and I have more XBL friends than PSN.

Thing is, it's not my birthday for another month - will anyone still be playing it by the time I get my copy? I also want Just Cause 2 and nobody seems to be talking about it any more already!

Get RDR before JC2. I bought JC2 on release and despite how fun it is dragging people along the floor and blowing crap up, the lack of multiplayer and the short story mode gets really boring after a while. I played it to death at first, but it's lucky to get anymore then 15 minutes a time off me now.

I will pick it up next month or so, as I want to hear peoples real opinions of the game after the usual "New game OMG itz teh best!" excitement wears off.

Does look fun though! I may rent it out for a while before purchasing.

Great! Another person who has made a cruise server so he can give himself loads of cash, just because he can't be bothered to earn it on other servers.

I'll give it 2 months before it dies.
Any "sign" Templates?

Hey.

Not sure if this is the right section, but I need some help from you guys.

I'm making my own Billboards in LFS. Only problem is I need some sort of layer to make it "look" like a Billboard. Things like dirt and things like that. Also, if you look at the Original files, the signs have a sectioned layer over them, which makes them look like panels joined together. If any of you out there have that too, then I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Your right Jack. That pipe is there for a reason, and that is to get a more direct air feed into the air intake manifold. Removing it or keeping it as is will make no difference to the performance, and I cannot see why such a small pipe would be "restrictive" per say, although I assume the pipe would have a small mesh guard to stop objects entering from the front.

You really should not assume I know nothing. If I knew nothing about Cars, I would not be running my own Gearbox Reconditioning company, nor would I have all the Certificates and Course Degrees in my Portfolio right now.

I just didn't notice the little "rw". Don't take it to heart babe!

And yes, I'm up for ending this discussion. :

Did you read my post? I said NEITHER the 1JZ's or 2JZ's make the region of 260hp.

From what I recall, the 1JZ's make around 280hp or so (Not like I know anything about Soarers. I don't like them.) and the 2JZ's make 230hp or so. Not like I give a crap though.

Well considering neither the 1JZ or 2JZ engined Soarers make 260hp, it sounds like his sewer pipe mod (Oh sorry. I mean "induction kit".) hasn't worked.

E: Just seen sheets. That Graph! LOL

And all that work for 3hp. I got to give you credit for all that hard work. Abit of a shame it's so pointless.
