    Mazda RX-8 231 on eBay

    Is that the one on Pole Lane, in Darwen? I pass it most days thinking it looks pretty smart.

    Far Cry Primal

    The first is arguably the best. Number 2 was turd. Although it looked pretty for the time, it was an empty, hollow, experience. I didn't really get to grips with Far Cry 3 - though my Steam account says I put 13 hours into it. Ironically, although I played Far Cry 3 : Blood Dragon less, I did...

    Alfa GT Cloverleaf

    Nice choice! I'd read that Alfa had learnt a few things or two with the previous gen JTD engines. Only ever driven a petrol-engined Alfa myself - a V6, which sounded superb. :)

    Rear Shock Lower Bolt

    Not sure of the bolt length - though if I recall from when I did it, the bolt was 18mm and the top bolt was 16mm. Make sure you cake the affected bolt in WD40 or similar - it may just be stuck with crap build-up. Alternatively - sign up and become a member on here. There are loads of guides on...

    Wheel bearing?

    If it is the rear(s) - as others have said, they come as part of the rear disc brake. Piece of piss to swap out - as is nearly anything on those rear wheels - and is definitely something you could yourself with a jack and a decent socket set. The fronts have to be pressed in iirc - and...

    Waving?

    I do if I see one - why not? ;) Admittedly I have see some let onto me at the very last minute before I realised and they probably just think "miserable cnut"!

    Apple Pay

    Cool - thanks Chris.

    Apple Pay

    I haven't actually looked into the requirements of this - but I presume you need a 6 or above for it to work? I only have a 5 and Watch in combo.

    Mad Max

    The game is much better than the film that I watched last night! :P

    The Apple Watch Thread

    For the record - I have a standard 5. Works perfectly with the Watch.

    The Apple Watch Thread

    Got mine yesterday as a present from my fiancee. Haven't tried to mess about with it much yet - but in typical Apple fashion, even the unpacking of it is an 'experience'. Fancy boxes, opaque tabs - long, slender plastic inner case. None of it is needed, of course - but it just adds a bit more...

    My Evo VI

    I hope you gave it a good thrashing after the wash, before tucking it up? The huge amount of heat these things generate is superb for drying them out underneath. Looking epic m8. You're still carrying the torch - even though some of us have ours snuffed out. :smile:

    Picked up some new wheels!

    Loved having white alloys on mine for a few days - but I think those work better on a black/silver car. Perhaps not so much on Inferno?

    Mad Max

    It's worth it Ste. It's a game that does make you want to explore, more than most actually.

    Cookie's 2003 M3

    Haha! Harsh - but fair.

    Start calling it Christine. Sounds like something Stephen King would write about....

    Microsoft event in October - Windows 10 devices...

    I know what you mean. It's almost like I'd snub a Microsoft phone without even wanting to try it. They must have learnt a fair bit - even with the failed assimilation of Nokia. But I when I think of Windows Phone - I just think Windows 8. And then I shudder.

    Mad Max

    Bloody hell - you've flown through that! How many hours in so far?

    Project cars

    It really needs a wheel m8. I've tried it on the PC with both keyboard (utter lol) and a 360 controller. While not as bad, the 360 pad was still miles off the subtlety needed in this game, from a wheel imo.

    1988 Pug 205 rally spec...

    Very nice. I think I'd cry actually using it for what it was designed for though! http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/peugeot/205/wonderfully-rare-peugeot-talbot-sport-205-euro-spec-rallye--engine--g-box-rebuild--not-to-be-missed/4735405

    Mad Max

    That kills it for me, m8. Part of the enjoyment of games with evolving characters is knowing and learning where they are strong and other areas they should back away from. That's why a lot of the older style (non-1st person) RPGs are arguably a better 'game' for me as you have several characters...

    Mad Max

    I'd expect (and hope) that FO4 has a lot more going on. Fingers-crossed that you don't become a one-man army (aka Fallout 3 and Skyrim) - but I can't see that happening. Let me develop a set of skill trees that I want my character to have. But in the same sense, don't allow him to be a sniper...

    Mad Max

    Quite surprised that this hasn't been mentioned yet? Put about 7 hours into it on the PC. It's very familiar in both look and feel to the Batman series and Shadow of Mordor game - but imo, is significantly better than the latter. The usual fare applies. Following a story mode over a very hefty...

    Buying a Macbook

    Yep - stupid, stupid manufacturing 'statement' by Apple that. I can even understand the use of more expensive, proprietary memory. But to hard-wire what your purchase is set to from the get-go - is arrogant as it is stupid. A few years ago - 2GB of graphics card memory for PCs was deemed far...

    Wheel bearing?

    Don't discount the rears - even if they have been replaced recently. If the tapered ring that comes as part of the kit has been fitted the wrong way around, it will rapidly reduce the life of the new bearing. One of mine barely lasted four months before it needed replacing again - through my own...

    Phones.. Talk to me

    Well, I've got an iPhone 5 as my personal phone and an Android powered Motorola Moto G as my works phone. Which do I prefer? The iPhone - hands down. Pretty much what Ron says - the simplicity and ease of use of iOS is simply not matched by Android. I get the whole 'do what you want' aspect of...

    My BG 182

    Well I've had mine on for a couple of weeks and they really suit BG, imo. Change is always good though!

    Project CARS TT (Weekly)

    I've got the Old VS New Car Pack going spare on the PC version - if anyone wants it gifting through Steam?

    Looks alright - but Turinis are so has-been.... :tonguewink:
