I was really keen on the X-box untill I heard about the poor sales, And I love Gran Turismo, so PS-2 was the obviouse choice. So I am now saving for one.

But the final nail for X-box for me was when I talk to the guys at the video store, they have the PS-2 games and have ordered all the Game Cube games, but are staying well away from the X-box, as they have done all the research into what will be succsessful and what won't.

Has anyone played Project Gotham?

Greg. (WTF, Wheres my king Smiley!!)

God sony piss me off, they wrote a similar article in the states about not dropping prices, what did they do the other week...dropped the price. I wish sony would get off their high horses and just do what's right for people. It's just the way sony are though, and people love them for it, flashy colours, cheap quality. Same as bloody Holden and HSV.

IBM was working with Nintendo to create the x-box, which allowed Nintendo to incorporate Copper technology into their system.

The components in the Cube are as small as 1 600th the width of a human hair, this alone is one great advantage over both other machines.

Also the some 1.5 gb cartridge for games is twice the data of a cd, which is cool.

I still prefer the X-Box though, better games, a GPU, and it looks cool, even though I would probably end up customising the case for the hell of it.

Who cares which one is more powerful. What matters is which ones has better games, and the gameplay.

We're all car fanatics here, and you cannot go past GT3!!!

However, GP4 is coming out on the xbox, but i'll save that one for the PC.

As far as I'm concerned, I payed some damn good money for a damn good PC, and I don't give a **** what anyone tells me, any game on the Xbox will come out at some stage on the PC. I mean the Xbox is just a lightly modified PC.

If you read up about it, MS like most companies is losing money on the hardware to make money on the software. Therefore it stands to reason that any game that can *very* easily and quickly converted to PC, will also be sold on the PC therefore increasing their market to sell to.

/Start of rant

However I can't get GT3 on PC, Tekken Tag, Dead or Alive 2 (Although you never know, DoA3 might be on PC) etc.

I bought a PSX for GT1,2 and THPS1,2. Thats it.

Unfortunately I can't afford a PS2 right now, but when you spend like $2000 a year plus on your computer (My excuse is I'm a tech), I don't need ****ty console games.

SOF2, RTCW Multi, WarC3, Morrowind (oh my god is so good) etc, are far better than any crap that comes out on consoles. Plus most of these games come with free internet updates ,patches, nude women... oh sorry ahead of myself.

Anyway, I'm sure I've pissed off a heap of people already, so I'll shut up. But anyone who wants to ague which has better games, play Baldur's Gate 2 the whole way through, and then tell my consol games are better.

/End of rant

Cheers,

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
