I just pick up a new fridge for the basement for my sons medication.

This is phase one of the basement renovation project. Stay tuned for more.
 
So yesterday I got my Coilovers

And the same day put them on the car. I went from having more than 3 inches of wheel gap to having less than 3 inches of ground clearance.

Thank you sir ;)

Whats's your PSN-ID?

Now you can join the CoD4 GTP clan. 👍

You've done a great purchase with the PS3, it really is a wonderful machine.




















...until it craps out on you. :mad:
 
I'm jealous. :grumpy:
So how much does it cost there? Here, it still cost around RM1900+ (or so my brother said.....) Also, how does the camera function? Is it really worth buying it? I heard a lot of good things about this phone (such as the camera and the touch screen is awesome) Maybe its even better that the iPhone..... :D But still, at 16 years 7 months old, what can a guy like me would afford anything like that? (other than the fact I bought a 160GB iPod last December.....)

Yeah, I'm still waiting for the SE Xperia X1 to come out and see how good that phone is compared to the KU990 and the iPhone......
I'm sorry for the unbelieveable delay in my replying but I'd totally forgotten i'd posted in this thread :ouch:

I got the Viewty (KU990) for £30 because i'd come to the end of an 18 month contract and T-mobile are very good for retention offers.
I suspect without a contract, it'd be a couple of hundred quid to buy one. My best mate's fella has an iPhone and as well as mercilessly taking the 🤬, I also had a play with it. For the money, i'd rather take the Viewty. It's really good and extremely easy to use, I haven't actually bothered with the manual at all. The only thing bugging me is that there doesn't seem to be a 'delete' function on text messages etc. For a 'smartphone' it's very unbulky and light. The stylus may annoy people, I have it hanging from the top but I don't use it very much (fingernails FTW).
 
That was late, and I thought you have completely forgotten about it. :lol: But you got it for £30!!!!? :eek: The cheapest around here was about Rm1700+ while the iPhone was about Rm 2000+. Dammit! :banghead: Well yeah, they aren't cheap at all. My brother got himself a SE W810i for awhile until the Xperia X1 comes out. He also mentioned about the LG KS20, which is pretty similar to the KU990, but probably cheaper. I don't know what phone to get for myself as well, still thinking about getting a descent phone cause my N-Gage is giving me crap and it does always brick itself.... :mad:

Woo! A genuinely awesome purchase. And it even comes with alternative spring rates!
 
Thanks! Yesterday when I pulled in to my neighborhood, I normally take it in 2nd gear at 3000ish RPM and have no problem at all but with these on the back end came out. Once it was out It was very predictable. The one down side I found was you can't slam a car with stock rear upper control arms because they will hit the coilovers. I raised the car 4 CM in the rear and it is still hitting but not as bad. This weekend I am going to take the control arms off and clearance them so I can keep that hight and not beat up by new sexy coilovers.

Oh Yeah Socket 478 Mobo. But I did get a great deal on a P4 3Ghz HT from one of my CS:Source clan members.

Only thing left to buy is a nice graphics card.
 
I just made a random impulse buy... although I do need a new keyboard. It's $90 shipped. after mail in rebate.

I figure this will make a great mouse/keyboard combo for my PS3 when I start using it too. xD

Could you please let me know how it goes with this KB as im looking to buy one myself but i wasnt sure if the trackpad would work with the ps3 as a pointing device. And it does look really nice.

PM me and let us know.

cheers.
