  1. *Note* Before listening I must let you know first thing. This is extremely fast, heavy, powerful, intense metal. Normally I don't like speed metal too much and this stuff is extremely close to speed metal. It is however very melodic and sounds absolutely wonderful to me. After a song finishes it's just like of feeling of "woah that was awesome". The band is DragonForce. They are from the UK. They play songs with fantastic or epic themes usually drawing inspiration from video games and other fantasy themed things like Lord of the Rings. Songs usually deal with epic battles or things of the sort
  2. wait. Definitely. I'm kinda lucky in my situation. My dad bought me a cheap $400 HP laptop off eBay for right now since I'm at a community college and living at home. Lucked out too cause it wasn't even 8 months old and had all the discs which included a full Windows XP Home SP2 disc and it had the charger, good battery and a laptop bag to boot. All I need it for is notes and minor entertainment, for when I'm not in class, ain't got nothing to do, and am not going home. That entertainment would be music, *ahem* anime *cough*, emulators, DVD's, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero and Half-Life. When
  3. OK, I'm not quite so pissed at the car now rather than the dips*** previous owner. With my description my mechanic thinks I popped a spring in my clutch. The flywheel should be fine but maybe not. Right now I'm just looking at a new clutch. Exedy Stage 1 clutch to be exact. If'n I have the money I may just slap a lightweight flywheel in for the hell of it. I may just cheap out though and go to NAPA and get an OEM clutch. I'd rather spend the cash on a good Exedy or something. I've been told Clutchmaster is good but expensive. I don't care either way cause guess what broke. A Clutchmaster. Look
  4. Ok I'm pissed off right now so I'm liable to say mean things, use foul language, or e-holler at some people but my ass will never find it's way in the driver's seat of any ford unless it's my friend's 67 mustang 289, which is also a pile of crap that needs too much work. Lets take a step further I ain't drivin any domestic. Particularly no transversely mounted 4 cylinder. Hell, if a frickin good condition 240SX rolls my way then I'm chanign my name Nismo boy or something. Maybe an older turbo Celica or MR2 and be TRD Boy. Anything made by Honda, Nissan, or Toyota that ain't this pile. Sign me
  5. Great, just great. My clutch is royally screwed. It's gonna be over $500 in parts alone to fix if the clutch and flywheel need to be replaced and my guess is yes. God, I just wanna kick that little retard right square in the crotch for messing this car up and then his dad for not telling us about some of the crap that was wrong with it. I bout have a mind to track those jackasses down (they were moving at the time) and demand my dad's frickin money back and give them this headache back (probably at gun point). I'll buy me a damn 91 Integra GS for $1500 and get to work on it. Damn it. I shoulda
  6. the biggest problems with this vehicle is vanity. Appearance. The motor runs good but I need to either tap in a potentiometer to fake a FTP signal or get an OBD1 ECU to fix the check engine light. It's looking for a non-existent Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor. No hatchback had them. Only certain years of certain trim levels had them and that included the 99-00 Si that this motor, trans, and ECU came out of. It'll be alright though. I'm going to focus my money into fixing the oil pan issue and the trans leak. I got a seal with a small leak that's easily fixable (by a mechanic) in my transmission. No
  7. Probably cause it's gonna take too long to save up the cash for the full SiR conversion, I'm just gonna buy the SiR fenders for now cause my car seriously needs new fenders. It's only $170 for the fenders and sidemarkers and it's nearly $1000 for the whole kit plus $350 shipping. I can use the stock bumper for now since it is in ok shape. The fenders will have to wait for paint. I'll also need a new hood so then I could just paint the entire front end and be done with it. God this car needs a load. Hey it's better than not having a car at all at least. I still wish I could have gotten that 97
  8. I need to take new pics now. My car is on new springs and sitting higher. I honestly think it looked much better on the old ones but it rides much nicer on the new ones. When I get the cash I put it on some Mugen coil overs. I have saved this car from Hell. SO many problems with this car that me and my brother are fixing. The oil pan is missing like 3 or 4 bolts and the drain plug isn't the right one but we can't seem to find the right one cause it seems it doesn't have the original B16A2 oil pan. A ton of riced out crap in the interior pitched and replaced with unmodified OEM parts. Ripped up
  9. there is an English version out there. I've seen it once but usually I see the Japanese one.
  10. I prefer google but babelfish is a good proxy alternative. We used to use it in high school to get around the blocks. It didn't always work but it did work quite often. Just about all real proxies were blocked.
  11. liquid cooling eh? OVERCLOCK TIME Hmmm looks like my air cooled 3500+ is gonna be slow compared to yours. If you do infact decide to overclock it that is. Overclock it. VOID THE WARRANTY JUST FOR FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Liquid cooling. You must be planning some wicked overclocking. I heard you can manage FX-55 speeds on a 3700+ San Diego on air alone. I think you're trying to pull off FX-60 speeds from a 3400 ain't ya. Mine just gonna remain stock. It takes care of my current games fine for now but soon, when some new AMD processors come out, oh you know I'm goin nuts. Whatever AMD's flagship i
  12. it was 79 the past 2 days here. I thought I was in a comma for 5 months and woke up in spring. It was in the 50's the day before.
  13. well my MOBILedit! installed games too. Granted all the free ones I found sucked but it could still do it. Do a full disk scan and make sure the there aren't any bad clusters or whatever.
  14. ahhh ok thanks. All 4 episodes fit they just had to be reduced quality to fit. How do I do MPEG2 and does it it reduce the quality?
  15. I didn't even know there was a paid version. Mine transfered pictures, mp3's and all that mess. What features do ya need?

    My New Toy

    Ya know I wonder where the real Otas are. All I ever see are toy Otas. It's only 4 inches. It is a little unsightly compared to some others but at least it sounds about a thousand times better than my old car. When I get the cash I'm goin for a full header/exhaust combo from DC Sports or GReddy. Maybe Mugen headers if I can afford them. By the way rice is all the at stupid BS such as Z3 fenders, retarded body kits, 3 foot high wings and all that crap. Mostly pointless visual stuff and minor mods on crap engines that do nothing but add half a horsepower. I got a good engine with minor high
  17. oh no Ford hath betrayed thee. I crushed my old V220 when I was changing my oil It worked for a while. The screen was out for I while but seemed I fixed within 2 days. After about a month or 2 the screen just quit. I had to go back to my decrepit old LG. My manager wanted to sell his Razr and I bought it from him. It's slow and makes my V220 look really good but at least it looks cool and I can actually hear and feel it. My last 2 phones I could neither really hear the ring nor feel the buzz. I can hear the power metal blasting from this booger. At least that's an upside. Decent storage space
  18. Is it a newer CD drive? When my burner crapped out on my old Gateway, Gateway sent us a new one but the old burning software didn't recognize it. Luckily they also sent a new CD burning program with it. The new one worked fine. I'd say use a newer program.

    My New Toy

    hmmmm. No Variable valve timing I bet. DOHC VTEC ALL THE WAY FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!! No more SOHC's for me unless there's a turbo attached to it. Not half bad. Probes are one of the few and I mean VERY FEW Fords I don't hate. Still ain't no Civic, Prelude, Integra, Celica, or 240SX but not bad. Sorry but I'm just a Honda/Toyota/Nissan guy through and through. Yes I said Toyota and Nissan too. Mostly Toyota for trucks though and Nissan for the 240SX and the 300ZX. Ditch them rims and either get A. a decent looking set or B. a factory set. I'd go with B. Mine ain't factory but they are replicas
  20. I have no problems burning I just wanna clear up some information about DVD's. I can burn DVD's like a champ. Skimming is very bad. You need to read the whole thing I learned that the hard way with books I was supposed to read in high school. Also I got that DVD burned fine I just wanna know why it had to reduce the quality of four 175MB 25 min videos on a 4.7GB 120 min discs.
  21. Ok this has been bugging me for a while now. I have some blank DVD's that say they hold 120 minutes of video. I decided to burn 4 episodes of one anime (free fansub) I was watching so a friend of mine could watch it. Well, I was picking out the episodes in Nero and when I put the 4th episode on it said that there wasn't enough space and that it was going to have to reduce the quality. Now each episode was about 24 minutes at 175MB each and the files were all AVI's (I don't know if it makes a difference but I had to download DivX to play them originally. Winamp has played AVI's before but not t
  22. Super Size Me Here's mine
  23. HAPPY B-DAY MAC!!!! You showed up on the new birthday's thingy in MySpace
  24. if I'm not mistaken, that has nothing to do with the amount of RAM on your video card I think. I've seen this once in a BIOS before but never really knew what it was meant for.

    Why

    That's why I'm glad we have a half basement half garage. The basement is half under ground with the garage doors obviously on the above ground side. So we have space for crap and cars. 2 car garage though. We have 3. Guess who's is outside. stinkin' PT Cruiser. We need to leave it outside. POS. We just need to keep the Toyota and the Honda in the garage.
