Lmao sorry man, I ended up hacking away at the settings being the noob I am - but it worked so I'm happy :)

im like this too,hack away till you get it right, sometimes i leave and when i come back the missus has sorted it, which is even better..I dont care as long as it works..

Utorrent FTW, had hacked azurus a while back, used to fake seeding for faster uploads, but it was never really any faster than a well set up utorrent, its all in the fine tuning...

But since i reinstalled Utorrent im having trouble surfing while it is downloading, keep getting problem loading page error, some sites work ok,but others such as SAU, dont like it running..

utorrent, set my upload to 7kb and uncapped dl. Usually get over 500KBs. any less that 7k and your down speed is capped. utorrent usually uses least memory and cpu than all the other programs ive tried

Yeah its the new versions that do this, back when it was 1.8 or thereabouts it used to work fine with uploads at 1...

I didnt mind seeding out till optus started charging for uploads, now i cant really afford to..And now utorrent is capping its a lose/ lose situation..

if you wanted to be really cheap you can set the individual torrent upload speed to 0, that would work.... atleast the versions last yr and earlier duno bout now. Also those that have bad download prices may benefit having number of connections lower to reduce the overhead that goes into requesting a slot from 100 different people non stop.

Paying for a Usenet account is defiantly a worth while alternative

A REAL privatetracker with invite only is the way to go. Nothing like 300 seeds with 2 or 3 leachers. Will max out any connection considering those guys overseas are uploading at several hundred Kbps each.

You know Oz users are being sold a "broadband" pup when there's groups out there asking for minimum 50Mbit upload users to join a project.

Rapidshare costs $, but for those with uploads counted, it's the way to go. I've seen over 2Mbit DL's on a cable connection.

trackers (private or public) are easy to spoof. hell, I've had a 20:1 upload ratio on waffles (before free-leech came in) and other private trackers and I've got my torrent software set to cut off uploads after 1% has been reached.

I'm sure as shit not the only one who abuses the system, which is why I'd much rather get stuff off newsgroups like we did 20 years ago.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
