    Playstation 3

    The PS3 is actually twice as powerful as 360. the hardware is almost twice as powerful as the latest gaming PC also. In terms of hardware as compared to a gamming PC is excellent value for money, but obvoulsy a ps3 can only play games. do a google search on the E3 convention from 2006 when the PS3 was introduced by Sony, lots of vids to look at. I play a lot of online games and regularly upgrade my PC but the PS3 rocks. I will be getting one.
  2. dude, don't format again!!!!! the drive numbers can easily be changed. Check microsoft knowledge base. From memory its done somewhere in control panel-admin tools-computer management. I used to play BF2 all the time but I think BF2142 is so much better. The gameplay has been improved heaps..............yet it still has server crashes!! I had to buy a new video card, geforce 7900 GT, it cost me $399 and it absolutley rocks...........highly recommended.
  3. Aloha, anyone play Battlefield 2142? I want to add people to my buddy list.
  4. wonder if they will come with a clunky diff and brake shudder?
  5. yeah right! a fat yellow sticker?
  6. you might be confusing the suspension rattle for something in the brakes. All mine was a metal piece, part of a braket on the brake calliper (can't remember the actual name), anyway it had just become slightly loose so Ford glued it back on, and now the noise is gone. I reckon the creeking thing will go away once the suspension settles.
  7. mine did the same. went away after a while.
  8. I can't remember who, but some dude on this forum was fed up with Ford excuses so took his diff to a specialists, they rebuilt it with different ratios and it worked perfectly eversince. I actually wrote it down, this is it. standard diffs should have .017" crownwheel to pinion backlash. This guy changed the ratio to 3.73 gears and set backlask to .006".
  9. so how does this compare to BP ultimate? sounds similar
  10. yeah sounds like it, but according to their website it's not.
  11. anyone?
  12. who cares. fog lights look good and make the road ahead brighter. I'll still use them.
  13. wow, lots of good advice. everything mentioned does make sense. I reckon I will try this on car balance thingy (it's not really a dyno in disguise?)
  14. Hey peoples, I am getting slight vibration I can feel through the steering wheel when the tyres are cold. it usualy dissapears after about 10 minutes of driving. I did hit a pothole 12 months ago that dented a rim (18" ford rims with standard dunlops), which was replaced under insurance but I can still feel a slight vibration only when the tryes are cold. Ford claim they can't see or feel anything wrong.........but I can tell there is. Obviously I have had the tryes rotated/balance/alligned, many times. I have tried changing the tyre pressures also, they normally sit at 38psi (on recommandation from some noob tyre bloke in my area) any ideas?
  15. anyone reckon it will come out with a turbo model?
  16. nice car. what make is the wheels? I like.
  17. ofcourse..................the lancer was only doing 40. Man that car is a gun.
  18. Does anyone know this car? Are they on this forum? if so what mods have been done. Anyone want to have a guess.....because I like!
  19. Also..... with Max Power's comments above, what he is saying that Ford are "assuming" we have a capa box. Just becuase the ECU version reverts back to the old version surely they cant refuse warranty work because the ECU is still standard?
  20. Has what Max Power said actually happened to anyone. It's easy to say this and that but has it actually happened?
  21. deka deka!!!
  22. dude, wait a while. optus and telstra have launched 3g too early. if you want 3g go with "3" they have got there sh*t sorted out. me thinks
  23. nice car..............I was so close to getting an 8. but at the time they were like $6k dearer. love the balck beast.
  24. So is the new BF XR8 come standard with 18's, premium brakes and prestige sound (is this the same as premium sound)? http://www.ford.com.au/servlet/ContentServ...h1024&c=DFYPage
