Lol - I finished uni that year! :P

Welcome aboard! @NorthloopCup is your man for all things gearbox related. :)

Isn't it only the 182 (V6 excluded here) that's different with it not having a wheel well at the back for a spare? Other than that, the floorplan is identical and as you say should fit anything across the range.

If this was a very old version of Windows (XP and older) - I'd suspect the dropping out of hardware was an interrupt conflict. More modern Windows editions shrug off old complications like that - but it is strange that both your soundcard and WiFi have had issues. One culprit could be the power...

Liking this - it's got some subtle differences (improvements even) over the previous titles. The map control phase is quite well done also - takes a bit of getting used to, but definitely plays a role on how successful you'll be when the next combat phase starts. Aside from that, I'm really...

Got to admit - I am tempted :P

This Fanatec bundle almost seems too cheap to be true? https://fanatec.com/eu-en/detail/index/sArticle/1749?_gl=1*takv48*_up*MQ..*_ga*MTYzMTM0MTIxMC4xNjc3MjQ2ODUw*_ga_Q6VYC4JPVE*MTY3NzI0Njg0OS4xLjEuMTY3NzI0Njk0OS4wLjAuMA..

Well, today is officially release day and so far, so good. I very (very) rarely play a game on launch date as invariably there are issues galore. However, I've only come across one so far - where for about a minute, the game stuttered for a couple of seconds regularly. Then it simply stopped...

It's amazing just how much scenery pop-in occurs in GT1 during that clip. Of course, we knew no different back then and I pumped hours into it on my PS1. These days, that would get 30 seconds play time before being switched off. Objects in the mid-to-far distances simply appearing just destroy...

Welcome :) Personally, if I was to buy a set of after-market springs - I'd be going for Eibachs. They are more expensive, but I'm on my second set now and would only really replace them with another batch of Sportlines.

Would have loved Recaros in mine, but I ordered it in September 2004 and as the list says, they weren't available then. :(

I wonder when the last update for that sat-nav was released?

I definitely remember the i.d paint cost when I ordered mine. At just over £12k, I thought the idea of spending a further 10% just on paint alone was crazy. If I had of done, it would have been on Petrol Blue all day long...

I need to do that on mine. I'm always wary of them still being damp and rolled back up. Did you actually remove them fully to clean them up properly?

The pretty good Warpips is currently free on Epic. One of my few Perfect Games on Steam, where I've obtained every achievement.

Never used that before - will come in handy at work. Cheers!

Either I'm numb to the feedback and sensations, but I've never really had issues with any tyre on the 182 - and that's included Contis, Goodyears, Michelins and Pirellis. The only one that ever did cause me frustration were the factory fit (and tiny) Pirelli tyres on my previous Punto GT. They...

Win+D is another one I use regularly - especially on multiple monitors. Just minimises everything and takes you to the desktop view.

As many of us use Windows based PCs on a daily basis, just thought it might be useful to create a thread on some usage tips that people might not know about. - One for multiple screen users when you want to just screenshot one screen. (I use this a LOT having three monitors at work) Click...

Got to admire the commitment - well done! :)

Welcome aboard! Sounds very interesting with the 1600-spec racing car. Would that be used for rallying? Whereabouts in Finland are you? It's one country that I'd love to visit. (y)

Hello and welcome :) Does the car sound like a Subaru when you press the accelerator? I'd be very inclined to believe that its an injector. It could simply be blocked after being laid up for four months. Strange how there's no code being retrieved though. I borrowed an admittedly high-end code...

A shame that 172 is so well presented to then have a rear wiper delete? On a rear screen that gets caked in s**t the instant there's a bit of drizzle, let alone rain - I've never understood the inkling to get that done. At least it would be a straight-forward retrofit to put back on, should...

Any idea how the top dash mounted displays cope in warm weather? Just wondering that in the summer months when it 25C+ and your car is sat parked up in the sun, are these units likely just to die a quick death? Oh, and with anything like this - a pack of these along with some trim removal tools...

Not really. I bought the standard edition of FM7 a while after it had been released and within it, I noticed that there were several car packs being given away for free. It was only when I Googled the error from the Microsoft portal coming up during activating these packs, that the issue became...

Don't think I'd touch another FM game after the deprecation of the official licences seen in FM7. If you bought the all-singing version from Day 1 - you were fine. Buy the standard game and then left the DLC purchase until post September 2021? You can no longer acquire the cars. I get the...

Not too dissimilar to a 24-pin motherboard cable. You haven't got a PC that's suddenly stopped working, have you? ;)

Never understood why Renault didn't offer them as an OEM option on the RS models. The bottom picture is subtle and they perform an actual job. I'd buy a set today, if they came straight off the shelf.

Nearly five years of a thread-bump, but this classic is down to a mere £2.49 on Steam for the Ultimate Edition.

It really is. At best, it's an indicator of the expected throughput of a game, but little else. It's like the drag efficiency of a supercar. It's important to its performance - but would you really be arsed if a special slippery version upped the top speed from 189mph to 193mph? I wouldn't. :)
