I was there last night.

Started queuing at 1315 and got into the Elipse area and by the time the concert started, I was 5 deep from the stage. At 1 point, I Bono was so close, he touched the hand of a girl 2 across from me.

Words can't describe how good this concert was. I've been to ZooTV, PopMart and now Vertigo and I can't seperate the 3 from an experience point of view as I've been in prime viewing points at all 3..

All the favourite songs were played and of course as expected Bono took the opportunity to speak his mind about some political issues focussing on making poverty history and ecouraging everyone to look at www.makepovertyhistory.com.au

It's amazing how 1 person can control 60,000+ people with so much ease. He asked people to pull out their phones and light up Telstra Dome like a Xmas tree which everyone did and then he asked them all to SMS their name to 191221 to support the Make Poverty History charity.

The 4 hour wait outside was definately worth the wait and another event I'll never forget.

MPH isn't a charity :O

went sunday night. Not in the "inner sanctum" but over on 'The Edge' side (where else to be)

I've been going to a lot of gigs lately, and ranging from Lior at the spiegletent, Mayer at Palais, to U2 at Telstra Dome. But this was just un-f*cking-believable! The set was outstanding, the light/display wall, was incredible.

Set-list was great, wish i knew the complete words to some of the 2nd encore songs. I'm a fan of U2, but not a massive one, and i went just because it's 'U2' and i doubt i'd get a chance to see a band that's been so influential, again.

Don't know why Coldplay was getting the gong for the world biggest band, i'm sorry coldpay fans, but they don't have anything on U2 at the moment, and not with shows like they put on at the Telstra Dome.

will remember that concert forever.

      American owner: what scanner for JOBD port?

      Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.

      Yeah so physically that port is consult not OBD2, but also be aware that "JODB" is not really a thing - it came in around 2000(ish) but is not a standard like ODB is, each manufacturer had differences. If you are looking at ECU only and have a standard ECU, go with Datascan as Turbo Tapin said. Per another recent discussion here thought that won't do other systems like in a modern car, for example bleeding ABS

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By Roy · Posted

      They're not rebuilt Racepace items. They were mint. From memory the were ex display stock that I bought off yahoo and he ran....from memory he barely used the REs when he replaced them with a set of Tein RS If have been stored correctly and not leaked fluid then they will be mint   As an observation the Racebuilt rebuilt Tein RA/RE/RS were a better street/club/track package. Really nice on the street and did good numbers at the track.  I think the factory Teins wont match the Racepace valving on the street but would be in the same window of performance on the track... albeit firmer
