Used my duel optical since around 2002 ish. Cost over $100.00 best investment made.

Time to upgrade to duel laser.

First person is so much better, how ever they dont work on everything (some table tops ect)

My 2c

i use the track ball mouse (the one with the big red ball on top ) ive had it for 9 years il never go back to a normal ball /lazer mouse again hell ive even gone out and bought a spare one for when this one dies

Edited by japwpn
Hahahaha I still use an original microsoft mouse....has the ball and no scroll wheel :P

Might as well dust off the chisel and go back to writing on rock tablets its such old tech :D

Mines an IBM original...had to drop the ball out of it and clean the rollers in it last night

I've been using a wacom graphire at home since 2002 which I scored when I upgraded to a Intuos at work. so my pc's totally miceless.

edit: actually i tell a fib, sometimes some apps don't support it, which is when the MS optical mouse comes out of the drawer.

i got an intuos 3 at home, used to do a lot of flash animation, now i use it mostly in photoshop for painting crap

I use a laser mouse, i'm part nerd :down: due to my job :ermm:

Nah, seriously though, if you want a mouse that works on every surface, is extremely reliable and uses one set of batteries every 6 months try a laser,

I've got a laser desktop, wireless keyboard and mouse set, only cost just over $100

There is no cool red light like an optical, but when you have an optical running on batteries and change them once a week or so, it gets pretty annoying

cordless FTL. latency, weight from batteries, lower resolution and constantly having to recharge all makes them blow goats, and the only decent cordless ones that solve these issues are like over $100 for the mouse alone. I can deal with a wire attached to my PC.

yeh mines wired and laser, 2400 dpi if i remember correctly so has plenty of resolution, dont need to bump up the OS respose and loose your accuracy. not a fan of wireless ones unless they have a dock instead of batteries

always wondered with the price of cast polymer batteries in mobile phones why they couldn't make a cheap rechargeable mouse that's light and has no need for AAA batteries.

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
