    Gran Turismo 5, anyone?

    As one game review put it, "this is a 10/10 racing simulator wrapped in a 5/10 game", which from what I've read sounds to be very accurate. As someone pointed already pointed out, the "track maker" feature is a big disappointment and it sounds like there are a ton of things outside of the actual...

    which thrust washer to go with?

    If I remember correctly, Marlin crawler does still sell the washer, but they believe that they bearing plate is ultimately the main problem.

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    CLP type lubes definitely do dry out after a while, I actually use Redline since I've got it laying around and it works very well.

    what size should i go?

    Yeah 4" is terrible as far as clearance goes, 3" is probably fine if you're going to stay with the ct-26.

    which thrust washer to go with?

    Regardless of where you get the thrust washer from, be sure to get the bearing plate that marlin crawler sells as that's supposed to be as much the culprit of thrust washer failure as the washer itself.

    The (old) Official Gun Thread.

    Do XDs have polygonal rifling? Most of the time that's the reason that straight lead isn't recommended. If it's standard rifling there really shouldn't be any risk.

    Can I put my PC slimline Dell tower components into a regular tower and upgrade parts

    I don't know anything about the xps you're referring to, but usually there is a specific form factor that components such as the motherboard are made for. In most cases it is ATX, and I think there are other variations such as ATX-mini, etc. If the Dell uses the same form factor it should bolt...

    red line water wetter

    Are you guys all running cars on the track? If your cooling system is fine then there's not really any reason that you need to use WW. Cooler temp does not equal better running, if that was the case people would just run without a thermostat. If your car is already overheating than there is some...

    frame braces?

    I don't think Do-luck makes those pieces any more. Also JIC used to make the front upper-A arms for camber but I think those were discontinued as well. I believe that Beech Performance on this forum makes adjustable lower arms.

    call of duty black ops pc

    I think it's funny how if this thread were about copied ebay parts it, everybody would be talking about "shitty china parts" and "copied garbage" and how buying those parts undercuts the legitimate makers who design their parts. But when it comes to copied video games? Everythings A-ok there...

    Simple question

    As far as I have seen, most makers have a specific hub adapter that you then bolt a universal QR assembly to. I know there are the universal ones that you can weld to the steering shaft and such, but I have yet to see a one-piece bolt-in which serves as the hub adapter and quick release.

    Simple question

    NRG makes one, apparently the mk3 hub is different and has a specific part # which is not the one that is used for most of the Toyota hubs. I want to say it is SRK-121H...

    my first set of coilovers on my uza70

    Can you explain what you mean by the shocks having too much travel? From what another person said, the shocks had too little travel which caused bottoming out issues with lowered cars.

    Tire information and decision.

    I've heard a lot of good things about the direzzas. There's also a new Azeni tire now, the RT-615K, apparently it's supposed to be better in the wet.
