alright, rant time.

wanted to squeeze in an hour or so before I had to go do stuff... go to put a car in my garage and says its full, so you pick a car to delete. The only one worth keeping is the Blista that owes me $50k, so i dont choose that one. Enter garage: the car i selected is there and the Blista is gone. my only modified car is deleted when I picked something else. argh. leave, come back, still gone. destroy intended car to make space in garage: still gone.

so steal a random car to sell and I get a bounty for $7000. lucky its an empty map so no dramas.

Decide to do a mission and its to pinch Lamar's friend from a van thats travelling on the main highway at full speed, and it spawns you the other side of Los Santos with no car... so you find a car and get onto the highway and the van is already at the other end of the island... 4 in game hours later and you catch up to them, only to find a guy in the back of the van with a machine gun. 5 secs of tailing and you're dead. Spawn again, and you're 100m from the freeway with no car and no easy way to get armour. repeat, shoot out 3 of the tyres and the van doesnt slow down *fark* eventually force the van into a pole, as your car goes past them a stray bullet hit me and died. so infuriated. tried this mission 3 times and what a waste of time. cannot be done single player without luck or a helicopter/plane to skip ahead of the van.

return to freeroam and still have $7000 bounty. 30secs and someone has hunted me down. oh well. drive back to garage, sell a vehicle for some cash and theres 2 blokes camping at Los Santos Customs waiting to pick me off and the money I just made. awesome.

bring on the payout. /rant

yeah i mentioned it a while back.

You get 250k sometime this week at the next update. Then another 250k towards the end of the month.

Only prerequisite is that you have played (or will play) at any point in time throughout the month of October.

Shit, sorry! remembered seeing it on Facebook but not here

Yeah There are some things in the game are really annoying. I was getting one of the prestige cars for Simieon to take to the dock or whatever those missions are, And i was happily driving along, just lost the cops, then BAM some retard comes along and smashes into the car then shoots out all the tires. So had to drive halfway across the city with no tires, trying not to get killed

I think I might have just been unlucky lol. Because it stays in kinda free roam everyone else is still in the map. Someone was probably just out on a rampage.

The important thing is I made it :)

Bought my first property today. 2 Car garage, good enough for a start

i start missions with random noobs, who are on your team but shoot your tires out, then piss off.

so i just go and make a sandwich and come back hoping they won to give me a share of the winnings lol

yeah, gonna do invite-only sessions from now on - sick of randoms. got a green car for simeon (green on the map), saw someone with a bounty near where you drop it off, so i drove over slowly, looked again as i was closer, he wasnt there - he'd hidden himself on the radar, capped me as soon as i turned the corner and turned the car in, flamin mongrel

so i capped him as he came out, f**ker - 9k bounty. i just want that text gone, no more of those cars

alright, rant time.

pretty sure I did this one over the weekend. Died on the freeway, spawned me near the water and atleast 100m away from the road. I ended up shooting out all four tyres, and then passenger and driver. Getting him back to his shop is hard aswell. I found that when you get chased by the bad guys when you escape, pull over and get out and kinda snipe the guys off from a distance from behind a rock with the assault rifle. P.s I switch the setting from "normal" to "easy" when I do solo single missions.

how much does it pay? would have taken a very long time...

I've seen 9-15k per van. Sticky bomb, on the door as it drives off and boom. For some reason they always spawn near my apartment LOL. So I try blow the back doors off as close to there. As soon as I get three stars and the cash I just run to my apartment and wait for the stars to drop rather then run around the map.

good call...

some missions seem to spawn more on-road attackers if you kill the first set without travelling too far away from the mission area.

yeah i think when you steal one of the cars on Simeon's list, a notification comes up on everyone in the lobby saying 'someone has taken the car' or something, and then you're highlighted on everyones' map. So yeah you are at risk of muppets just coming to smash up the car for no reason.

Also has anyone come across a 'special crate'? Came up the other night. Not like the normal crate drops, I got a message saying "Special Crate dropping in 10 hours", then another one at "5 hours" then at "3 hours", then it never dropped. Googled it to see what's up and some people have gotten up to 25k and miniguns and shizz!!!! Kinda bummed I missed it

oh whaaat i still havent seen a special crate heh. ah well.

really need to put aside some serious time for this - but yeah every time i'm on i'll be setting up a separate session, so if you see me online, try and join my game or bug me for an invite to it heh (that's if you don't want random annoying assholes)

had some good games last night with el chino, ghost and mautki(??) - i was kirasuran. but yeah definitely looking for some crew missions together! or a crew only map!

Ahhhhhh i was wondering if you were actually from the forum or just a random that joined the SKAU crew lol good stuff... I dont know why but i was never put on the same team as you guys in any of the missions, just me and two randoms lol

yeah, was annoying aye? that's why it'll be good when we play properly in a crew! looking forward to a bit more!

Dunno wtf just happened, all ready to play a game of survival with Age, and it just never got out of the launching screen. f**k

Tried to play a game of survival before, got a good vantage point, started killing people, then all of a sudden It stopped and said I'd failed? :S

Online getting frustrating today....

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
