    Who's buying a new GT86?!

    I would do if I didn't have irreversible body modifications on my current one, but i'd also be changing that front bumper. I think we all need to find a way to retrofit the new instrument cluster in to the pre-facelift model and everything will be dandy.

    Robs S/C GT86 Project

    Fitted the Cusco headlight adjuster on Sunday but I haven't actually been out at night to see if it makes any difference yet. Made it roughly 10mm shorter as was suggested for a 30mm drop but i'm sure its better than it was. Quite a fiddly crusade on my driveway and I got covered in sand in the process, my worst nightmare. This is why I never work on my car.

    Well console peasants will know no different because their games are capped at 30fps regardless, using a noobstick aswell means you don't turn as quickly so it's not so noticeable. With a KB&M it would literally give me motion sickness and my head would be down the loo. I can't play most games on anything less than 85fps. Console will remain capped at 30fps because it can't handle any more than that.

    UPDATE [10/6 / 6PM PT]: We currently have a patch running here at the studio that includes 30, 60, and unlimited frames-per-second options in the video menu, among other improvements for the PC version of Mafia III. We’re verifying the patch now to ensure everything is working as expected. If everything goes well, we expect the update to go live this weekend. We will be keeping the PC community up-to-date on the status of the patch throughout the weekend and thank you for all the feedback!

    Well we all knew it would be a port, but quite a few ports are actually coming with good video options these days. I'd of thought it'd be a no brainer to uncap the fps for PC but clearly not. They will probably p0atch it themselves because the steam reviews are not looking good right now lol. It has more negative reviews than positive. http://store.steampowered.com/app/360430/#app_reviews_hash

    So apparently Mafia 3 is capped at 30p. Glad I didn't buy it!

    The Exhaust Thread

    If you had it fitted in August it should have carboned up by now as it only takes a few hundred. Should be quieter but i'm with Lauren it doesn't drone particularly, the resonated pipe will of course fix it though.

    Hi from Surrey

    I've been to surbiton raceway for karting if that counts as surbiton Not a million miles away from me so I may see you about. I've only managed one trackday this year. Disappointed in myself really.

    Winter Prep - What's your routine?

    haha that sucks! Yeah it's less abrasive but only marginally. It'll make it more glossy lol. You might find it'll take a while but see.

    Winter Prep - What's your routine?

    @Ade it should be fine providing the swirls are light. You may want to pick up a yellow pad as well though and run a test area with both pads and see what the results are like and make an informed decision on that.

    What have we done

    Brilliant is it the new blue or the older blue?

    Winter Prep - What's your routine?

    Using SRP with a DA is a pointless exercise how bad are your swirls? I'd recomment Menzerna as i've used it with fab results but other brands will do the trick. Depending on how bad your swirls are will depends on what pads & compounds you'd need to use. If they are heavy you'd need to go over it with a medium pad and a medium compound then a finishing pad and finishing compound. Or you may get away with just a finishing pad & compound. http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/menzerna-car-care-and-detailing-products.html Paint is pretty soft so you should be able to get away with a Medium 2500 or Final Finish 3000

    Alarm going off HELP!

    Yep that's the one. As for replacement at service I wouldn't know as I never have my car serviced at Toyota Sent from my ONE E1003 using Tapatalk

    Alarm going off HELP!

    They replaced both of mine no questions asked? That doesn't mean they are covered under warranty though batteries are inexpensive they probably just done it as a gesture of goodwill. If they are replacing batteries they should top up oil and coolant FOC. It's a consumable pretty much and it has a life of 3 years ish. Sent from my ONE E1003 using Tapatalk

    Batteries aren't covered under warranty you need a CR1632

    @Ben They chose the worst map for the Beta tbh. The others are far superior and they are reverting back to the old conquest ticket system which should help
