That sucks...... did you get details for insurance or did they do a runner?

I know the feeling though, my front bar's had so many scrapes and dings out of it, I finally decided to pull it off, sand + bog it and repaint it...... but it's gonna look like total SHITE. To top it off I ran out of paint this afternoon and the shop I use isn't open til Monday, so it looks like I'll be riding my bike to work for the first half of this week!

runner :geek:

maybe it was brizzyrocker :geek:

lol, it was a mistake man, comon now please i dont wana be known as the hit and guy run for the rest of my life :P

n john(yaface) what sorta damage are you lookin at?

col if the idea is small and touch i'm not going to be able to do anything like that HP.

But I'll see what touch screen shit is around and how small a case i can find...

*waits for touch jokes

Nah don't worry about touch shit i'm not goin to go out of my way to have a touch screen lol it was just something I spotted in the Harvey Norman catalogue.

@Dave that is a cool set up. I can always hook up the tower or my old laptop to my tv if the mood strikes.

@John: I don't think I will be able to make it this week :geek: Mum's birthday.

Will shit all over that HP, but no touch and it will take up a little more room. Although that is using the smallest case I could find. No keyboard or mouse in that shit either - do you need them?

You can shave a bit of cost off if necessary with either a smaller hard drive, windows home edition, or a less powerful video card.

that sounds pretty svveet Martin. Yeah I decided against the HP, just gunna save up a couple of months n then build one at least then I'll get everything I want.

Yeah its not a bad rig at all. If you want to be able to overclock it well but, you'll need to get more expensive ram and a CPU cooler. Factor another couple of hundred there. But really theres no need to overclock it, it'll be f**king fast OOTB.

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
