Not trolling GT5 and or PS3. This is totally router dependant. You might need to exclude the PS3 IP and or MAC address. You might need to put the PS3 in the routers DMZ. There are a number of options

How are people going with the drift events? I find it pretty damn hard! Anything with a decent amount of power in it I keep spinning out or coming off the track. I try to power oversteer to gain contr

Is the G25 no longer made? I picked one of these up for $250 from Hardly Normal 3 years ago. It's connected to my Microsim Race Base (showing my age here).

The shifter quality is still pretty plastic, but better than playing on a keyboard.

G25 isnt sold anymore, the second hand ones ive seen on Ebay have ended up sellin g for the same money as a G27....

380 on ebay seems the cheapest, but also has the biggest postage $80 from what i recall. it seem the cheaper the product. the more the postage is.

i bought my G27 from Umart in brissy. cost me $405. picked it up the next day. no waiting, and no overpriced postage.

some of those driving rigs are pretty nice. but far too expensive for a few bits of thin metal tubing. and a friend has the VR one......very flimsey, not good for 650 bucks. and 2000 forget about it. mine cost me $250 for the bucket seat about 8 yrs ago ;) all the rest was free!! (except the G27 obviously)

there are other driving games other than GT5 you can use your steering wheel with. no need for it to collect dust :D

The Racebase plans and hardware cost me something like$80 back in 2004, and probably $50 worth of MDF.

I see they're back in business, and you can get the plans for $9, and hardware for $50-ish. If you're handy with woodworking, they are pi$$ easy to make.

too much of a pain to get in and out of though. if i was going to do it i''d leave 1 side off so you can slip into it easier, or make it have a scissor door, lol

What? Seriously?

Are you an arthritic 80 year old or something? Have you actually tried these things?

I can think of plenty of reasons one might not want one of these, but ease of access? Come on - surely you can do better.

Besides, the steering wheel tilts up out of the way if you want it to (although I've never had to do that)

Each to their own though.

you are pretty much sitting on the floor. i'd rather have it at seat height. i don't have the money or space for a sim anyway, so i'll just be sticking with the controller. never bothered me in the past. i might get one eventually (when i'm in a house with more space), but that won't be for a while yet.

i'd really like to get a car and mount one in the car so the steering wheel, etc is all in the exact location it would be in real life.

looks good, and cheap, and real easy to make. would save alot of stuffing around with measurements like i did. ill stick with my alloy one tho. Sure its pretty well on the ground, and doesnt look as artsy. but its sturdy enough to use it to drag yourself out if need be. Easier to get out of than a bean bag :dry:

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
