kurosagi01 got a reaction from bryan.inns in Winter layover now can't open door.
Probably sound like a dumb idea or impossible but what about jacking the car up,remove the metal cover tray and try reach for the mechanism underneath the car?

Haven't posted an update in awhile as i have been very lazy,so back in August i've lowered the car with the Litchfield suspension kit which i bought from Mike,also got the Cobrasport De-cat front pipe installed that i also bought from keethos, Eibach front camber bolts and a re-tune from Fensport.
-August 2016
All the mods was done at Fensport which i would like to thanks them for and on the Sunday;me,my older bro and my friend decided to go Santa pod for RWYB day for fun and my fastest time i've managed was 15.5 seconds at 88.92mph recorded speed.
Fast forward to September to now i decided to do some basic maintenance which im hoping will last until next year January,topped up the engine oil,coolant again,brake fluid,new Bosch aerotwin wipers and new cabin filter. I've also got myself a dash cam.
So that will be it for the car now for the winter,next thing to do is pay road tax and insurance and then next year be back on modding game after service and MOT.

I'm still waiting for another Bully game really,i hope they actually plan on doing something with that. Maybe set it in College/University days will be on the agenda if they did.

Didn't even know this thread existed... then again I've been rather absent from both forums for ages....
Read through like each page, figured I'd say a couple of things, to those who refer to NMS as 'No mans sky' I need to correct you it is called NML, 'No mans lie'.I'm one of the 10's of 1000's who negatively slammed that game on steam.
Quite a few nice pc setups on here.
I am a firm adamant PC Master Race member myself. Recently downsized from a Full Gaming Tower, Antec 1200, down to a mITX build.. cost a fair amount but, you've never seen anything cuter than an mITX motherboard... its so small... Fiddly as buggery to install though.
Currently though will be upgrading soon; running
MSI Gaming Z170 Gaming ACK mobo,
Intel i7 4790K Oc'd to around 3.6Ghz and water cooled.
16gb Corsair Dominator RAM running at 2400Mhz
MSI Gaming X Nvidia 8gb 1070 GTX
Corsair 380T White mITX Tower
White external slim Blueray writer/reader
1x 512gb SSD
1x 756gb Hybrid SSD
1x 2tb 10k HDD
1x 4tb HDD
1x 2tb External Drive
BenQ 120hz 3D LED 27" Monitor
Razer Naga Mouse
Razer Deathstalker Chroma Keyboard
The attached image below is what it looks like when you try and fit a massive 1070 GPU inside such a small case, and whilst I was doing its routine clean...I clean this thing more than I do my CAR!!!!
Next game on my wishlist though is Battlefield 1 ^^ but still so many games installed and to complete still...

Destiny is definitely one of the best FPS games i've played and invested in a long time*since Bad company 2*,finished all the raids upon their release and to me the best is still Vault of Glass. Crota raid was fun but man did it has a lot of cheese methods to finish until you reach crota itself. Oh and prison of elders final challenge against skolas made me throw my controller across my bed of rage,only got lucky in beating him when they put double damage with solar weapons and the party just nuked him with GHorn. Kings fall is just frustrating but still challenging and fun and wish they add a higher lvl rating for old raids for people with near maxed light level. The game is definitely best played with friends to join you in the grind lol and the small tweaks is nice and i have no problems with grinding for gear as that was fun at times. Crucible is still my favourite mode,but with 98% trophy completion on main game i just cba to invest in anymore time and waiting for Destiny 2 now.
And Yep WoW is still going strong with like 4 expansions now or something.

Bucket of warm water when you shampoo the car is more awarding in the cold.

Ebay is probably your best bet on Peripheral like that and if you're going to sell your PC you're better off selling them individually or as bundle like CPU+ram+motherboard combo and then everything else separate.

Do want that table/case lol playing on 50" up close is blinding for my liking and thats some nice piece of kit there @Keethos , if i had a desk size to fit comp case and show off components i think i found the most ideal case:

Another note..anyone playing Pokemon Go on their phones,seems to be the rave at the moment in terms of mobile gaming,im too preoccupied with Dragonball Z Dokkan Battle and then this Friday Monster Hunter Generation X on 3DS.

kurosagi01 reacted to Lauren in TRD Heavy Duty Top Mount
I really wouldn't worry about the rebuildable issue. I've done around 65K miles on my Tein Street Flex (before the Z and A were out) with EDFC Active Pro and I can report no problems. I'm still winning at sprints with them and I use my car every day. Currently at 86K miles. They're reliable.
Flex A are rebuildable Flex Z are not. But a bit of a non-issue really.

You have more money than sense getting a 1080 at the price they are at the moment!

Placebo effect is strong. If it costs dollars and the car's not noticeably worse it's money well spent.

Nothing in the ECU looks difference in coolant by a few degrees for fueling or timing, bar extremes. Might have a slight impact on convection of heat into the air and lower cylinder temps but all the sensors are way before that so won't take that into account.

*Update* 27/05/2016*
Gone up to Fensport for Cosworth Low Temp thermostat installation and remap and the car feels absolutely fantastic,the car feels more willing to go at gentle tap on the pedal. Not sure how much power the car is making since the remap wasn't done on a dyno,but i will be taking the car on a dyno again when i can get few more friends to join me for it. For those wondering if the thermostat is worth it,in small world gain it makes a better improvement while idling about at traffic light as it supposingly does keep the car slightly cooler which in essence improves throttle response. The next mod plans for the car for the remainder of the year: -Coilovers -Fenders -Private plate -Save up for insurance and roadtax -

Just to add to my setup now:
This is now sat in the bedroom after I broke my bedroom/office chair......it's a rather nice replacement....shame it doesn't swivel when you're not racing

Update 6/04/16
So i ordered a Mishimoto Intake hose in blue on Tuesday and it arrived on Wednesday which was pretty fast, so i decide to fit it after work while its still sunny. Very easy and simple and tiny clamps is a real pain to clamp back on and may consider getting slightly bigger one. box: removed stock hose: Installed and i also painted the red plastic battery cap just for the extra blue for fun. 08/04/2016 Weather was good and i booked the few days off and had time to debadge the rear bumper and paint the rear Toyota badge blue aswell. The other thing that happened was i accidently snapped the "GT" off the 86 and i decided to stick the 86 on the steering wheel. -

hahahaha Excellent reference.
I'm a web developer who now works from home so my gaming PC is also my work PC for the most part.
My computer is in need of an upgrade IMO, most of the case and what in it apart from the SSD has been there for about 5 years now! It was awesome at the time... I can't run the latest games maxed out so don't bother anymore. Just as well that I only really care for CS:GO and Rocket League at the moment. Squad is pretty decent but I've become so accustomed to having games maxed out and running well it annoys me a little.
That being said, I have stayed on top of the peripheral game so they are very good
Processor: Intel Core i5 3570k
Motherboard: Asus ROG Maximus V Gene
CPU Cooling: Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro rev2
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 24Gb Dual Channel

Power Supply: Corsair HX1000
Case: Antec 1200
Software:Windows 10 64-bit
Monitors: A really old 22" LG one at the side of a cheap, crappy 27" 1080p Hanns G one, got another 24" one in the other room that I'm borrowing that I need to hook up as I could do with a 3rd for my work. A triple monitor 24"/27" 144hz setup is something I'm going to look in to eventually

This is the latest picture (I think) of my setup, so a few things are missing, but the main layout is still the same. I've worked in the Youtube scene for a while (as a secondary job) so having the extra monitors for editing multiple videos etc. is brilliant. I'm also a fairly avid gamer, hence the ROG Swift (1440p 144Hz monitor in the middle).
As a compiled list of parts, from left to right:
Console setup: Xbox One Day One Edition, Xbox 360 (never used), 27" ASUS monitor.
PC Setup: i5 4670k @ 4.7GHz, GTX 970 SLI, 32GB RAM @ 2600MHz, 500GB SSD, 4TB storage drive, Corsair watercooling, Windows 10.
Monitors: 24" LG 144Hz 1080p, 27" ROG Swift 1440P 144Hz, 24" BenQ XL2411T 144Hz
Peripherals: Razer Blackwidow Ultimate keyboard, Logitech G502 mouse, Blue Snowball microphone, Fanatec CSR Elite wheel and pedals
Audio: Sennheiser HD650 headphones (music), AKG K702 headphones (gaming), Astro A40 with Mixamp (console gaming) JDS Objective 2 + ODAC (for general PC use).
Out of picture, on the other wall, is a 55" LG 4K Smart TV.
I think that is just about everything. Please excuse cable management. This has been improved since.

My Gaming PC has a 4970K clocked to 4GHz, 16GB Corsair Vengeance RAM, a 250GB SSD and a 3TB storage drive, and an Asus GTX760 (I mainly play Starcraft and lower-res games).
We have 2 PS4's so me and Cathy can play Destiny and The Division together, I've included some pics.
It's too dark but I can also see right through the hallway to my '86 from the desk so I am master of all I survey. ^^
