    Petrol Blue Register - 21/29 Remaining

    Yep - definitely wasn't in the 2004 spec when I ordered mine. I would have ticked that £550 option without a second thought. :)

    Petrol Blue Register - 21/29 Remaining

    Recaro seat pack..... If only that had been available when I ordered mine. :(

    Petrol Blue Register - 21/29 Remaining

    Dread to think about colour matching these now with a panel respray. Probably as difficult as Liquid Yellow to get right - if not completely redone? That said, part of me still wishes I'd ticked the Petrol Blue box when I ordered mine. edit - I thought ID paint was a £1,200 option too, not...

    200bhp NA build

    Click on the link under my avatar. I got to 199bhp with mine.

    Clio 182 Split Fuel Hose

    A good guide that. Would be worth asking an mod to move it to the Guides section.

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    No problem at all. One thing I will say is to be conscious of the noise that a framed wheel and pedals setup can generate. My room is directly above our front room downstairs and the noise transference through the ceiling is considerable. I hardly ever use the Fanatec shifter for one as it...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    That's fine - happy to try and help! So, on the rear of the DD steering wheel hub, there is provision for multiple peripherals to be connected into the rear of it - such as pedals, shifters, handbrakes, etc. The theory being that with the number of USB ports on PCs (and especially consoles)...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    Yeah - a bit of a significant oversight. They make a big comment about it at the start of the fitting guide - but as its just a couple of bolts and a cable, just how many people will read that?

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    No worries - give me a shout if you have any more questions on it. That NLR GT Track frame is exactly the same one that I have - except mine came with the seat too. The seat (although comfy for me) has been a bone of contention for many users - some citing poor quality and lack of robustness. A...

    Sim Rigs - Let’s see yours

    The additional CSL load cell pedal is a must, even if you're just semi-serious about racing. I wish I'd ordered mine with my original Fanatec order tbh, and not left it until a few months later. Straight out of the box, I chipped half-a-second off my best lap time around Brands Hatch GP in ACC...

    The Clio's come a long way... My Clio E-Tech review

    This is the thing. Modern diesels are just so efficient on a run - that it begs the question of adding weight with motors, batteries and all auxiliary kit that goes along with it. More so with the amount of available space within a smallish car. Cash in hand and if a decision had to be made...

    What to check first on a non-working cruise control (182)?

    I'll check those this weekend if I get the chance - cheers.

    What to check first on a non-working cruise control (182)?

    It could well be. I'm just a little apprehensive as per @Mr Underhill 's comments above. Is the wheel easy enough to remove?

    Thinking of getting back to the Xbox, what do I do :') N00b advice!

    I don't use a console - but if you use your existing XBox ID on a new XBox - won't that transfer the saved games you've had from previous? No different really than Steam Cloud saves on PCs - some of those saves on there are several years old when I reinstall the games.

    What to check first on a non-working cruise control (182)?

    Nope - naffink. Enabled cruise control with the switch on the way home yesterday - got the 'SET ---' display showing and nothing at all happened from any of the wheel buttons. @SharpyClio - were the buttons easy enough to swap out mate? Have you any details on where to buy them from too? Cheers.

    Rear seat bolt being a C U Next Tuesday

    Honestly - the more trivial a problem is, the more I lose it. I just can't abide stupid arse, lazy and incompetent design decisions. What was wrong in using the same bolt that attached the rear rail to floor? Mongs. The lot of them.

    Rear seat bolt being a C U Next Tuesday

    So, twatted the thing repeatedly with a hammer - drowned it from both sides with Plus Gas and ended up with a half inch Torx40 drive on it. It slipped once then started to move - but as per @chazza114 - it got probably about half way before going rock-solid again. No amount of forward and...

    What to check first on a non-working cruise control (182)?

    Pretty sure I tried that as well on the motorway - but I'll check again tomorrow, just in case I was being a proper tool....

    What to check first on a non-working cruise control (182)?

    I rarely use my cruise control - but found both it and the speed limiter simply failed to work whilst on the motorway at the weekend. What should I be looking into first? The switch appears to work on the dash - and the light goes from green to orange, depending upon which function I pick. I...

    Rear seat bolt being a C U Next Tuesday

    Cheers both - nabbed a can of that before I have another go at it over the weekend.

    Quake 2 remaster

    Those were the halcyon days of FPSs. No monetisation. No grindy unlock trees. Just red and blue teams fighting it out with the emphasis on skill. Simple, fun and addictive gameplay. Something that I think has been lost in some ways over recent years.

    Quake 2 remaster

    It is - not sure why Google agreed with my search?! :P

    Quake 2 remaster

    They need to do a reboot of UT2004. Opposing Worlds map - pretty much perfect.

    Rear seat bolt being a C U Next Tuesday

    Yeah - tried that. It wasn't up for making any change to it, unfortunately.

    Rear seat bolt being a C U Next Tuesday

    The irony with mine is that the bracket that the rear bolt (I assume?) is meant to hold down on the floor tightly - isn't doing so. It wobbles about fairly easy - so is pretty much doing nothing other than being a primordial weapon of the highest order. Getting slightly addicted to having the...

    Rear seat bolt being a C U Next Tuesday

    What an absolute t**t this thing is. Got it soaked in WD on Friday (both above and from underneath) and tried it about an hour ago. Not so much as a millimetre of movement. 1/4" inch socket set is way too weak, so will have got a 1/2" Torx40 bit on the way. Gave top and bottom another soaking...

    Euro Truck Simulator 2

    I still prefer its American Truck Simulator sibling over the Euro one.

    My New Yee - haw Pick Up Truck

    I'd drive back to Oxford the other way around. Shove the Transit on the trailer and tow it with the pickup. Probably the same cost in fuel as a Falcon Heavy launch - but it would be worth it.

    Assetto Corsa Competizione

    Couple of laps earlier in the Lexus RC F GT3 car against some AI GT4 competition. Looks a bit weird with no wheel and drivers arms - but my actual wheel overlays the bottom of the TV from my seat. So it 'feels' more realistic from that seating position.
