  1. Plenty to be found on eBay
  2. Mount a big whiteboard in the garage listing every mod you plan to do and then make a big red tick mark when done Oh and I don't have a garage which is a pain in the a$$. Use fridge in kitchen as whiteboard...

  4. I took the pic right outside of KFC too, got a few looks, lol
  5. Why don't you remember my substantial ICE install couple years ago?
  6. So after a lot of humming and hahring, I finally decided to go for it. I was however surprised how small the kit was, but on a plus side it was a straightforward bolt on. What has me stumped tho is that there doesn't seem to be any significant increase of power. Was aiming for at least 350WHP (wheel hen power)
  7. Better off using Meguiars Metal Polysh. Tried and tested method on here for bringing up headlights
  8. Ah good news May the force be with you
  9. So when exactly are we planning to storm 10 Downing Street and the Houses Of Parliament to kill all the politicians, especially those who have been abusing their positions for personal gain and forgetting who they are supposed to be representing.
  10. Don't the radar boxes work from behind the bumper at all? Just seems odd that a "radar" would only work from the surface.
  11. First one could also be a 5Zigen copy
  12. That was Reverend Black Grape I think youll find Or Alexandra Burke
  13. Saw these and some others a month or two back on ebay.... The others were being shipped from USA and so I wasn't sure if the lights would be adjustable for right hand drive????? Lenses cracked and dull on mine, so need to do something myself !! EDIT: Also I guess you need to allow for the fact that customs might charge import duty ???? I have seen those from Taiwan before and that seller states he caters for LHD as well as RHD cars, you'll just have to state when ordering. AFAIK I saw Celtic Val with these headlights at JapFest internals were silver not black. Looked ok, not sure if it would be something I'd go for tho.
  14. I've had SLi setup before and the main thing that pi**ed me off was that you didn't double your GFX power with two cards, and also that the load wasn't split evenly between the two. Triple SLI, no thanks, it's just marketing for fanboys. Very happy with my EVGA GTX 470 HydroCopper here Got my i5 2500K one a mild overclock and am running 4.02GHz currently, more than enough for what I need.
  15. Bit of a funky wing going on at the rear too. As for the Volks, new set would set you back at least £3K.
  16. Yup, indeed. Ran an hack and update many moons ago. On Ver.3.x right now and Satnav is iGo Ver.8.x, which is compatibale with TeleAtlas (TomTom) maps. If you want to learn more about Pioneer mods, you could check over at AVIC411.com
  17. TBH, the OP needs a complete new rig. Once the PSU and GFX are replaced then the CPU, RAM and MOBO are gonna be the next issues. Could go for a Intel i5 2500K CPU, very mucho bang for dinero Mobo to suit and about 8GB of RAM. and while your there, might aswell invest in a SSD or two for super speedy load times Does he really need to go for SSD??? What you are asking him to do is rebuild his PC. Looking at his first post, I take it that his technical skills with a PC are basic. SO... IMO, I think he could get away with a pre built base unit from somewhere. Check out places like Currys, Comet, PC World etc. Look for their discontinued stuff. It'll be maximum 6 months out of date, but reduced to match. Yeah you won't be able to play the games at it's best, but it'll be pretty damn good. Unless you wanna give me about £5-10K+ to build you something amazing and OTT for your needs! I was hoping the OP would realise that a new PC is in order, self built or ready built. Choice is his £5-10K???? What you building it out of? I only spent just over £1K on mine total. I love my 16GB of RAM
  18. This should be posted in manphibians thread "Stuff that looks like people"

  20. You "can" upgrade it, but not without upgrading other parts of the system tho. Your PC is dated and the newer games will show how old your Rig is. Looking at the spec sheet, it's now coming to four years old, which is a long time in terms of PC systems (think of Moore's Law) Your Power supply will probably give out first if you were to upgrade the GFX card, like mentioned above. For example, my GFX card will pull System in IDLE = 205 Watts System with GPU in FULL Stress = 419 Watts Difference (GPU load) = 214Watt (TDP = 215W) Mind you, I do run a more gaming biased PC anyway
  21. I was looking at the specs of the OP's rig and even the graphics card option only has 256MB onboard RAM, so really thinking its not only the coding bug you mention, but also hardware that will really struggle with the game.
