just something that been on my mind a bit after a friend told me what he would like played as he was laid to rest..

so whats your choice of song?..

ive narrowed mine down to a few..

song to the siren by the Cocteau Twins

Porcelin by moby

and The William orbit remix of Adagio for strings better known as the theme music to platoon..

so now the forums are alive again, lets talk dead people

Adagio for String (Samual Barber) is probably the most depressing and yet appropriate piece you can play at a funeral. The William Orbit's electronic rendition is no where as powerful as the original. Take out a copy of "The Elephant Man" from the video store and have a box of tissues near by :D

Another similar piece that's really depressing is "The Host of Seraphim" by Dead Can Dance ( Lisa Gerrard). Who also sang for most of the songs in Gladiator ..

Got a few more but too depressing to think about :D

AHAHA Dan tupac thugs mansion.. not bad... i was thinking more of a rocky theme for you..

There is no song more beautiful and symphonetic (if theres such a word) as the mentioned above Barbers Adiago for strings.... for those of you that haven't heard it it is amazing..... for all you into the dance scene this was a big trance hit in early 2000 however still made it big without any major beats and still very close to it's original form, if there is every such a song to bring on a tear jerker this would be it, the ferry corsten remix of this is very nice. Also a song by a group called "Hybrid" the song is called unfinished symphony, this is just as amazing.... this would be very close in so many ways on the same lines as adiago for string.. please those of you that like adiago for string find this song... Hybrid is awesome!! Agreed with XRW and simple logic, barbers adiago for strings would be a beautiful song for such a sad occasion.....

Not the most nicest thing to think about yet still an interesting question:uh-huh:

A Tout Le Monde by Megadeth.

Most people don’t know it so here's the lyrics

Don't remember where I was

I realized life was a game

The more seriously I took things

The harder the rules became

I had no idea what it'd cost

My life passed before my eyes

I found out how little I accomplished

All my plans denied

So as you read this know my friends

I'd love to stay with you all

Please smile when you think of me

My body's gone that's all

A tout le monde (To all the world)

A tous mes amis (To all my friends)

Je vous aime (I love you)

Je dois partir (I have to leave)

These are the last words

I'll ever speak

And they'll set me free

If my heart was still alive

I know it would surely break

And my memories left with you

There's nothing more to say

Moving on is a simple thing

What it leaves behind is hard

You know the sleeping feel no more pain

And the living are scarred

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      R34 Speedo not working after manual swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
