  1. In the distant future when I'm looking at next gen, whichever console allows me the most freedom and choice will be bought![/quote Can you not just put them on your PC and go from there, instead?
  2. This article kinda summarises my thoughts on the XB1 vs PS4. http://lowfatgaming.com/2013/11/09/state-of-play-its-xbox-one-for-me/comment-page-1/#comment-1942
  3. Media sharing is my preferred method of listening to music or watching videos. Always. It's only when my set up struggles with HD movies that I'll slap it on a USB stick and plug it directly into the 360.
  4. Why not just stream them (media share), instead? It's a lot easier...
  5. I wouldn't mind getting another 200sx drift slag for the winter. Bring on the snow...
  6. Just as it's idling. Don't remember the sound being there before. Could be coming from the throttle body... Didn't notice any bubbles, but will have a check tomorrow. I think I'll get some leak detector spray in the meantime and have a little investigate.
  7. Managed to look over Supes today and immediately noticed the problem... The top rad hose was loose... at both ends! Tighten it up, refilled the system and bled it. Everything seems to be 100% again. Just one thing... can anyone confirm what sounds like an air leak coming from the power steering pump region as normal?
  8. Loving these updates. You guys are making good ground.
  9. Less than two weeks and I can start setting some hotlap times in the McLaren. If anyone else is jumping on board throw us a friend invite.. gamer tag: Big Supes.
  10. It's all personal preference, but I have never got on with the PS controller. It was good for Pro-Evo and Tekken (for it's D-pad), but the Xbox controller was built around the analogue sticks, putting them in more natural position, like the Ultra 64. Sony, on the other hand, just took the original controller from 1996 and stuck the analogue sticks where they could fit them. Proper feedback triggers FTW.

  12. Cheers, guys. Paul, is the 1.3 bar cap rated higher than the OE cap? Could you PM your availability and price posted to Southampton, please? Ta.
  13. Every time I went to Nissan for parts of my 200sx, I would go through the same experience. Head + wall.
  14. I always seem to have this problem when going to main dealers! Do you stock OE rad caps, Paul?
  15. Rad cap ordered... Oddly Toyota said they don't stock a separate cap for the UK TT. You have to buy a new radiator! He ordered a NA rad cap so we can compare the two. Haven't managed to check the heaters....I didn't notice them going cold. With all this rain, I'll leave it under the cover and check everything once I have the new cap.
  16. I'll order one up from Toyota right away and have a check over the heater matrix pipes. That's a great help - much appreciated mate.
  17. Thanks, Dunk. I'll give that a try. I'm presuming the tank cap is oe, but will double check when it stops raining.
  18. Noticed after pulling into a services that steam was coming from the bonnet. Had a look and the plastic lid from the expansion tank had popped off. There wasn't much water in the bottle so I filled it up and we got back on the road. Everything seemed ok at the next stop... no steam, but who knows what the engine temp was with the stock dash gauge?! Had a little wide open time on the way home and could hear the radiator boiling/bubbling after killing the engine. She's definitely getting a tad warm. BTW, I had a look under the car after refilling the expansion tank and couldn't see any leaks. Going to take it off the road until I've narrowed down the problem. Thinking it could be a worn water pump? Any suggestions welcome.
  19. I have a factory UK spec TT if you're looking for something to compare to.
  20. No probs, mate. If we don't meet before we should pencil in a convoy to Bluewater for next month.
  21. Hey dudes, thinking about heading out this Friday evening if anyone fancies it? Think we've missed all the bonfire displays, but I'm sure there's something to sniff out...
