Seen over on xbox.com that there's quite a few video card failures. Mine's out of its 3 year warranty as of end of 2007, and I finally get some time to properly start on GTA, fire it up and it gives plenty of sound, but no image...just lots of tiny little white dots. Anyone know if this is...

Slightly damp, very old tyres and was, ahem, a little loose - so I get on my knees and thank the god of run-off. Pretty much everyone gets a look in on this one, quite happy with it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTpT8CVkjNA

...but I finally made it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8QHp4jt62k Can I be in your club now Chris?

Well, killed is a strong word, so maybe annihilated would be better :rasp: Love the manual rack, covered almost 300 miles on it and it's much more manageable now I've gotten used to it. New brakes make a f***ing racket, clanking and rattling in the calipers, and squealing like nothing I've...

F***ing brilliant! I was hoping some kind of an improvement, but the feel I'm now getting through the wheel is sublime. As the tyres just push past their limit and into understeer, it feels like I've got a chunk of tyre rubber in each hand and I can feel it slipping and tearing across the...

What do we reckon? I've heard 2-3 bhp, and also someone claiming 8-10 bhp. I'm going to get my car on the rollers soon to see for sure...any predicitons?

I spent today at Rentech annoying Mike and Dave while they did this... First things first, out with the driver's seat Bucket of lard Brackets fabricated Bucket of lovliness On with the wheel, boss and spacer It's a bit of a reach to the stalks LOL New front brakes ready for...

Or maybe not. I definitely feel it, and I filmed it in action earlier, but it's hard to pick up from the video. Each gear, from tickover to limiter where the runway was long enough... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqhSYf4nBBo

Just the internal mechanism, interior door plates and switch, leaving the mirror housing etc. in place. Can I do this?

Got it all happening on Friday, Mike at Rentech is fitting; Cobra Imola 2 bucket seat Steel (boooooo) sidemounts 3-point harness New front discs (thicker) OMP 300mm wheel Lightweight alloy 60mm steering wheel spacer Which means he's removing; Standard steering wheel + airbag Standard...

I've been running PF97 pads over the winter, and the car's not had a proper wash for weeks. Stuck it through a carwash today, and the sides of the car remain covered in brake dust. Fred - you've got some miracle cure for this?

How does that work then? I've got a 3-point harness, adjustable sholder straps as normal, but with no adjustment, at all, on the lap belts. Do I have to get adjustable lap belt mounting points? Do they even exist? Have I bought a dud?

I'm aching all over from boarding the loft this weekend, and while the attic contents were down, I weighed everything taken out of my Cup. The only original trim that remains in the car is the dashboard, headlining, sun visors etc. and two seats. Door cards, carpet, boot and rear trim has all...

Take your parcel shelf out and pop it on your bathroom scales? What does it weigh? I'm trying to get an accurate measure of how much weight I've lost but can't weigh my parcel shelf as it's the only piece I've sold. Thanks.

I got sent this earlier and thought it might be useful to some. Maybe a mod could sticky this? Written by Cliff D'Arcy of www.fool.co.uk In today's 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly' email, I'm looking at a particularly unattractive car insurance policy. Guy Hands, the owner of Odeon, the...

Well, sort of. Every little helps :approve: I'm now at a solid 186 bhp per ton. Got myself a nice 6kgs seat to go in next, hope to have that in before the Combe action day - and if that saves me 15kgs, I'll be somewhere around 190 :approve:

Or is a longer length/extension required? If so, is this advised? Thanks.

A full 'lap' but not filmed in the usual manner. I think this works well aside from a few minor timing issues (my patience ran out long ago). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7U2BhQMNeAc Shame it was raining or I could have got footage from outside.

I'm trying to put together a full lap from different angles but this editing lark is taking me ages, so here's a clip of my faux pas instead for now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmQxBo0BQgo This suction mount is impressive, so steady.

Very happy with the result on Saturday. The guy overlaid the curve from 13 months and 23,000 miles ago on the same rolling road with no difference in engine mods/setup...and it's not lost anything anywhere. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce9dcUrxmYg

...from a rolling start the V didn't pull at all. Throw some 'twisties' into the mix and, well, see for yourself... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAc7D6Jf4Ws ;) Driver was Oms on his first ever proper trackday :approve: Good work lad.

Couldn't get the power down anywhere. Damn these pauper spec models and their lack of traction control. Clicky ;)

More messing about with my mount...I can get the camcorder almost anywhere with it...so thought I'd try a Clarkson. I'll shave next time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEDOoz-7M2c

I was testing out my windscreen mount, and this happened... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j56Rz3PTfR8

...all condensed down into 3 minutes. Some silly bint in a old Boxster, and a 320d that was on its door handles. Pure comedy. Since the insurers have paid up I've replaced my suction mount so finally got to get some footage from it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCSGdzrsG3s

...f*** me them CRXs shift! The Saxo was tidy too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsgNHDIWx9I

I finally nailed tower flat in 4th :approve: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hss0mfHUB7c

They're sat at Rentech at the moment. If you have a set of 1.2, 1.4, or even dCi side badges and want my 2.0 16V ones, get yourself down to Rentech and they'll exchange them over for you...ask Dave really nicely and I'm sure he'd remove your old ones and pop the new ones on for you too.

Back at last :D Bit of a co(k-up at the garage this morning, had to go grab a coffee while I waited for them to turn up. Turns out the ****s that took it nicked my gloves too. W****rs. And my suction mount's gone as well. Apart from that, everything was there, even the CDs and alloy wheel...

The control centre called; "Do you have a spare set of keys?" "Yes...you've found it?" "Yes Mr B" "Is it in a bad way?" "The keys will greatly assist with the recovery" That was it. Knock at the door, in comes a nice man. "Yours was the 4th one in the last few days, so we've been giving...
