Internode & iinet are soon to be basically the same thing ;)

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-12-23/iinet-internode-internet-broadband/3745066

Yeah. Hackett reckons its "all gonna be status quo" but I've worked for ISPs that have been absorbed by Ozemail/Worldnet/MCI Worldcomm/Iinet.

Frankly, their words are worthless. They say anything to float company shares (as any self respecting capitalist would do - cant hate them, they're looking our for their shareholders. kudos)

BUT

they do it at the expense of truth and so nobody can ever trust em

Hackett reckons that Node will continue as usual. BS. They'll (as primary shareholder) go ahead and absorb all infrastructure into their own brand, sack all PR people (HR, Admin, Call centre, level 1 techs) and the centralize to the pre-existing iinet hub.

The days of the little ISP are over. RIP. Now we have to deal with asshole conglomerates...

-D

anyone know a decent ISP for gaming? the fluctuation that i get with bigpond atm is really shitting me off! any help would be appreciated thanks.gif

I play online quite a bit mostly BF3 of late. We've got Adam naked adsl2+ and I'm more than happy with it. Telstra have been pedaling their cable service around our area lately but I'm happy with what I've got.

I'm pretty impressed that when Adam change say their $60 plan to include more downloads, they apply it across the board, so everyone paying $60 gets the same. We started at 12gb and are now up to 100gb. Also if you're under contract to get your install or modem for free and want to stop your service or go to another ISP, all you have to do is pay the remainder of the subsidized items, not the monthly plan amount X months left on the contract. It just seems like a much fairer system that simply makes sense.

yea i just done a snoop around.... found out that we are paying 80 buks or something around that mark for just plain old ADSL, when they have the ADSL2+ for the same amount!!! so jumped on that and fixed it up...hopefully we see some sort of difference in that thumbsup.gif

So my external HD USB connector has snapped off inside the HD, is there anyway of retrieving the data off the HD?

Yep theres a mob in melb with a clean room that can remove the platters and chuck it into a byte reader and get the data off but its pricey

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
