Been thinking about either buying a viewsonic 28" LCD which retails around $700-800 while the Samsung 30" retails for $1800-2000. Anyone has one or recommend of one? i current have a samsung 22". LCD made by samsung is pretty good, clear and sharp not 100% sure about viewsonic

I'm leaning toward the viewsonic there's not a huge size difference 2" but with a huge price difference. Its mainly for design so the bigger the screen the better as there's more room for my colour pallets tools etc.

What's the clarity of the viewsonic screen like? it is sharp and bright?

what are you using it for? a monitor or a TV?

I bought one of those 28" viewsonics for ~7xx and it was pretty good..would make an good monitor..it is damn bright..the white is really good.

however..as a TV..it has no remote..and you need a tuner....plus it started making this buzzing noise so I returned it less than a week later. decided I will save money and get a proper plasma/lcd...

the other thing is that its an older 6bit LCD screen, and it doesnt have a terribly great viewing angle (again not a huge issue if you use it as a monitor)

samsung 40" ... thats what i got ..i paid 1568 wif gst ..LA40R81BDX is the model number... very good for what it is.. GTA4 on ps3 never looked so damn good!!!

i got the sony bravia 40" (1080HD) ... but paid 2k...

+1 for GTA4 :thumsup:

I'd say the quality of the display from a viewsonic is pretty much the same as most of the "known brands".

Oh, and I managed to do all my design work on my 17'' Phillips LCD :D

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
