    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.

    Probably depends on if you need a quick sale or whether you want a bit more out of it.  Besides CEX and probably even Game now, feel free to post something up on our for sale section with pics etc.

    I promised myself I wouldn't spend any more money this month. But the slippery slope of modifications has started 
    As the title says, looking for a used Tomei UEL at a decent price. Open to other UEL's, but not the 1320 Performance one haha.

    Hi everyone, the video is here! 
    Our microphone didn't pick up the sound as well as we hoped, so the video is quite quiet and doesn't really do it justice. Apologies for this and I hope it's still useful to you. 
     
    The lead time is approximately 4 weeks at the moment @will300
    With regards to the tailpipes, we don't tend to stock them as we make them custom to order. But we really can create whatever you like to suit your needs. The ones on the demo system are dull polished straight cut stainless 5" tips. If anyone wants to discuss with us what they're looking for we'll let you know if there will be any additional cost or not

    So as above, we've been really unfortunate with some parts recently. Just seems that everything we order, either is out of stock, turns up broken or faulty...not fun!
    On a more positive note, there really isn't a lot left to do. It's a case now of:
    Finishing the pipework for the supercharger Finishing off exhaust manifolds Fitting and configuring ECU Not a lot in terms of a list but fairly time consuming jobs nonetheless
    I've had to put off various shows throughout the year which is slowly killing me, so I made the decision to go all out for a really promising show called "Gravity" based at Stoneleigh Park near Coventry. It's organised by Slammed UK and was basically a selection of hand picked cars for the show, so the standards were high. With the hotel being booked months ago, we got the engine and gearbox mounted so I wasn't going to miss this one!



    This meant an EXTREMELY long weekend consisting of hiring a transporter from near Gatwick and collecting the car from Brands Hatch


    Taking it over to my friend near Heathrow for good clean


    And then back to mine near Croydon. Saturday was then spent failing to fit some new parts due to the battery finally giving up after 9 months of no charge, changing the wheels over and driving up to the show Saturday night to drop the car off in the main event hall




    Adam was at the same hotel as me so with the girls we had a great evening over some good food and many many many many beers.
    The show itself was fantastic. So well organised and the standard of cars was amazing. Needless to say I got some attention by arriving on the back of a transporter and everyone commended me for the determination to get my car there which made it even more worth while
    The best part of the whole show was just seeing people's confused faces as they looked in the engine bay. The V8, particularly with it's new colourful rocker covers, is very striking and gets people asking sorts of questions. I just can't wait to finally get her up and running!

    Tried Dirt Rally a few days ago, absolutely loved it. Unfortunately I haven't gotten round to trying it with a steering wheel as of yet. Can only imagine it'll be even better!

    Just to add to this the winter tyres performed way beyond expectations and handled everything that was thrown at them apart from the final gymkhana when they, in f1 speak, fell off a cliff and became the slippiest thing ever leading to me gaining the award for most sliddy. 
    However, this was after a day of extreme use (speeds in excess of 120mph, emergency stops from 90mph, a handling circuit session, etc) and in a temperature of 28 degrees c. 
    For normal road use and spirited driving there would be absolutely no issue running the Nokian WRA3's all year round and it really showed why they make such excellent winter tyres.

    I pretty much exclusively play racing games these days on PC, as I've lost the love I used to have for FPS Titles. Big fan of Assetto Corsa, definitely my favourite at the moment! But much like you, I've got most racing games in my steam collection. I'm also very fortunate to work somewhere that has a SimXperience Stage 5 simulator just outside the office 
    I'd definitely be up for some kind of weekly lap time competition

    Hi everyone!
    I have been looking for GT86 longtime and finally got myself one! Been driving with it for a week and over 1400km's already, totally in love with it!
    Got myself black with manual transmission, slightly used.
    I have some modifications on my mind, cat-back exhaust and ligths for now. As we say here in Finland, you get more hungry while you eat more, so maybe more will be coming.
    P.S. chose this forum instead of U.S. forums since we have nearly same units and specs.
    P.P.S. Sorry for bad english

    Before I start, this topic will contain words such as "Naughty" and "Filthy". So if you're looking this at work and a colleague reads over your shoulder they could get the wrong impression. You have been warned 
    Anyway on with the review!
    Customer service: 10/10
    Well, what can I say about the guys and gals at CGR. First exhaust they've ever done on this platform and they managed to get it done in 4 days, incredible. They went the extra mile to get the fitment spot on and were very welcoming and entertaining, I learnt a hell of a lot as well, which is always good! Not really much more I can say, just a brilliant set of people that won't rest until the job is done perfectly.
    The Exhaust 9/10
    Well, it now actaully sounds like a Subaru. So, damn, naughty. Cruising around at low rpm there's a lovely bass and burble from the exhaust. Some nice pops too! Had to drive it down the M1 to get back home, absolutely no drone on light throttle, just so happy with how it turned out. Only downside is that it doesn't sound as good at high rpm compared to low rpm, but perhaps that's more to do with the stock manifold rather than the godly set of pipes CGR managed to put under my car. But regardless it still sounds the absolute nuts! 
    Did I mention the filthy, dirty bass and burble yet?
    Well bloody done to Charlie and the rest of CGR Automotive. You've just put a never ending grin on my face
    I'll be sending all my friends your way!
    Video coming soon
     
    *EDIT*
    Video now up. Doesn't quite do it justice as with most exhaust videos. But at least you'll get the idea. Also, after having it for a while now, I've noticed there's some drone on the overrun above 2500rpm, but it goes as soon as you're back on light throttle.

    Well, looks like we've got the numbers! I guess we can either go for the 60 minute practice or the Friday Night Unlimited. Both £25pp, We do get more time on the Friday Night Unlimited (An extra 15 minutes) but on the 60 minute practice we do have the advantage of booking it at whatever time suits everyone rather than being tied down to the Friday. Plus we get to choose the tracks and the cars for each 20 minute session

    Hey guys and gals!
    Pretty new to the forums so keen to meet some of you and chat to like minded people! (This will be my second attempt, I was at Japfest but i was way too shy to come up and talk to anyone ). 
    I think the idea has been proposed on the other forums. But would anybody be up for having a bit of a social and a Sprint or Grand Prix at Simply Race?
