"Holidays 2013" so I'd say November.

No backwards compatibility. Not sure why people actually care about this feature. It's not like your old machine suddenly disappears if you buy a new one, and besides the PS2 no machine has ever really done backwards compatibility anyway. The 360 had limited compatibility that was gimped to say the least. I'd rather a machine with no backwards compatibility then gimp a new machine to make it work with old games.

In the plus side, PSN will be doing digital distribution of 'critically acclaimed' PS1, PS2 and PS3 games :)

my ps3 plays 1, 2 and 3 games.

means I only have to have the 1 console plugged in.

and I do play 1 and 2 games on it.

not often, but thats the point.

dont play them enough to have the dedicated console plugged in permanently.

and cbf hooking it all up when I do just want to throw it on.

and you might be able to download it, bit whats the point if I already own it?

Understated? Market share? yes. Critical acclaim? Nope.

Yamazaki has taken 1st at the World Whisky Awards 5 years running now for best single malt and Hibiki has picked it up 4 out of the last 5 years for blended malts.

And yet the Japanese drink their whisky as Mizuwara - 2 parts water to one part whisky in a highball with LOTS of ice.

The 25 is almost flawless. Perfect balance with lovely sweetness off the grains but intense wood flavours from the maturation. Hint of smoke and a touch of peat but not a lot. Mainly dried fruits but at the spicier end of things.

Yep - Japanese whisky produce high quality stuff and have been for quiet some time now. But even the 12yo yamazaki is rather pricy at $85 a bottle (or something like that)

I never put ice - water only if required (usually with the younger whiksies - anything over 18 - usually very minimal to open it up)

or you could pay a smidgen more and buy Glenfiddich 18 year old where a single malt is also aged in the same mix of barrels and using the same process as the Master.

How you get away with charging nearly the same for a 12 year old as an 18 year old when they are aged in an almost identical process is unknown to me... That is some clever marketing.

Marketing depts justifying their existence - very well mind you

I think that Japanese whiskies are way understated from a market share point of view. They are if not already better than some scotch whiskies.

Have 12 yo Yamazaki - very nice - lots of sherry with hints of caramel and sultanas

Yamazaki is beautiful! It's great that it's understated- keeps cost down. :D

I have small ice and big ice. I use ice if it's a warm day and then it's only one small cube to chill a little.

A touch of water opens it up so much more though.

Keen as to get it - just hard to procure in Oz :unsure:

its color is so deep (better fkn not have any coloring in it :glare: ) - read reviews about it even think it was nominated the best SM in the world over 20yo)

Pphhhh........blends - can't drink blends (been many years since I have)

this is a big factor Tony.

Try your whisky in a Glencairn glass (no ice ok) and add a drop of water, cover it up (with a watch glass cover) and leave for 20mins.....then taste it and thank me later.

They do have some awesome models,

Sadly too expensive of a hobby for me, the real car costs me enough to manage as it is...

Yep, heard that. the one above is just standard R32 GTR model and cost me around $89 + $20 postage IIRC.

I have the R32 VSPECII at home also in crystal white but costs me even more, which is why I'm not buying anymore......for now.

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By MBS206 · Posted

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
