I've got it, played it for 3 or so hours.. Didn't get bored of it, could have played insanely until the sun came up, but.. Just too tired.

Only had one quick chop of live, not much fun when you don't have a headset and your playing a mate that also doesn't have a head set. Thats on the agenda for tomorrow, pick one up so I can get that going.

Then as nerdy as it sounds, have to talk to my mates that have the game and try and get a clan formed, get a name for the Clan, and start hooking into live.

Don't know how far through I am in campaign, only just started and hit earth so I've probably got ages to go, damn good fun though, mmm sniper rifles.

Ahh, had my first decent session of live on it, 2vs 2, mates vs mates.. We played until 5.. I started after work, at 12:30.. And god damn I like it.. Time flew

We were mainly chopping capture the flag, some bomb one where you have to steal it and arm the bomb and another where you get a ball and you have to carry it for 2 minutes each to win. That one led to some exciting games, we won a couple by a second..Others were a walkover with them only getting 8 seconds etc. I'll be doing all the same again, hopefully we'll do us 4 vs randoms tonight.

haha you poor bastard, I've had a 12:30 til 5 session the first night.

Followed by a 7:30-4 session the next night.

Followed by 12-6 today.. and I'll be on tonight again, but hopefully not for long, I'm too tired.

Thats all in 3 days.

Umm, the levels are pretty sweet, theres only 10 or something so far, hopefully some new ones will get released as downloadable content eventually, but yeah, Midship and Beaver Creek, Burial Mounds are all good, theres another in the city with a bridge and alot of mid-air pathways etc.. Which is a good one aswell. But they are all 'fairly' decently sized for 16 people to be roaming around and not running into each other each second.

I just like the whole setup of being able to have a party setup, with 6 of your mates, and then being able to select what game mode, going to optimatch and it finds it and its setup and going. Only thing I'd want would be a retry button, instead of having to exit and re search.

Just an adsl or cable connection, network cable into the back of it, either a 2 month trial or a starter pack.

And if your playing with your mates, no doubt about it, you need a head set. Head gear as I call it, if your playing against people you know it sucks ass not being able to talk..

For example, one of my mates didn't have head gear, we kept on asking him questions knowing he couldn't answer, asking him if he was tapping his sack over the game, why has he gone so quiet etc.. All good fun, he never seemed to be doing much, but now that he's got headgear you can find out what he's up too.

I'm up to a stage on campaign where I've gone slack for again, I don't like being the alien dudes, I think their weapons are puss.

The alien weapons are OK, although I do hate it how you can't pick up more ammo for the beam weapons (eg. plasma rifle) The fuel rod gun is pretty cool, and so is the particle beam rifle but they use ammo up too quickly! Shotty still rules the Flood tho. And the Arbiter is da shiznit!

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
