Building a PC
Then the only thing would be budget, low end hardware goes out very quickly in gaming PC's and even now some of the low end budget stuff can not handle games from a few years ago. So the real question then is how much cash do you have to throw at a PC? Case in point, i had a Nvidia 5800ultra lasted about 3 years before struggling to run doom3 when that was finally released, then i upgraded to a 6800ultra. this too lasted about 4 years. i then upgraded to a 8800GTX which lasted only 3 years. The 6800ultra was a top of the range card, the 8800GTX was a top of the range card, after 3 years the 6800 still played crysis on medium and some low setting. Biggest problem with PC gaming, is the technology moves so fast, the big names tend to release a new top of the range card, about twice a year if they can. So if you want to future proof your system, then this is what id do. DD3 mother board, i7 if possible Quad core CPU (Only a few games so far utilise All 4 cores so you will be future proofing there anyway) Top of the range Graphics card [see notes below] (this will give you the best graphics and lasting future proofing) Id also go for a blueray player, i cant see it being too long before PC games come in that format as blue ray players are now rather cheap for PC Right the reason i say top of the line graphics card, is this, if you go for a Nvidia 295 i know its expensive but if you want the tech to last a while, you really need to go top of the line on this one. low range stuff will start to struggle with in a year to a year and a half, a top of the range one has enough performance benefits to last a lot longer. its that simple

Building a PC
I would matey but you would have to be aware that its missing both Wifi aerials and also the I/O shield (lost them when we moved into our new house back in April) the motherboard looks brand new, as im obsessive about dust in PC's lol, oh and it doesnt have a box due to me throwing it out, but the motherboard works flawlessly, i have tried getting a new I/O shield from Asus along with some replacement aerials but they don't seem to do replacements. I think the first thing people should be saying, is what they want to realistically be playing and at what settings.

Building a PC
First of all, i have to disagree, a cheap case can be just as good as a expensive one, just depends if your lucky in finding a brand that will give you good cooling vs cheap looks. i found that the Icute case from maplins did a damn fine job at housing my gaming rig (specs below), just remember to clean it every now and then. But first of all, never go with a power supply that comes bundled with a case, they are usually cheap and nasty and never up to the job. Power supply units. Having been building gaming PC's for the last 15 years, i can tell you now, wattage isn't as important as every one is led to believe, what you should be looking for is amps across the 12v+ and 5v+ rails a good wattage just means its got the juice to push the amps around, low amps can have all kinds of adverse effects on your gaming rig, including random restarts, blue screens of death and even graphics corruption, annoyingly websites tend to miss this information off the description list so you are in the dark unless visiting a place like PC world. So what you should be looking for with out being confusing is a good wattage with high Amps on the rails. So first things first, What are your needs? Before venturing into building a Gaming PC, first ask your self this simple question, do you want a PS3 / Xbox 360 killer? if so what is your budget. Work out what components you are after, visit a few websites get a list done then visit this website and work out just what power supply your going to need to run it all comfortably. PSU calculator (just realised this is the same website as posted above) That should give you an idea of what to expect, also although PCI-E has been on the market for sometime, it is wise to check the PSU that it supports it as there are still some floating around that do not have the correct connections, its better to have the PCI-E on its own rail than linking it off one of the molex connectors with a adapter. Specs of PC using the Icute case linked. Q6600 Core 2 quad Socket 775 p5q3 deluxe wifi-ap @n ASUS motherboard LGA775 4 x 2gig Corsair Dominator 1600mhz ddr3 ram (2x dual channel kits) Nvidia 8800GTX 768meg x2 Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA harddrives @ 7200rpm samsung 22X dvd-rw Coolermaster Silent Pro 500W Power Supply I ran that with stock cooling and never had a over heating issue due to the design of the Icute case, the front has removable black mesh panels from top to bottom, a whopping fan on the side that is silent yet draws enough air into the case, a front mounted fan as well, and room for 2 more fans on the rear that i never had to use. Since then i have stripped that PC and sold everything but the motherboard and case. as i have already built my new one, the motherboard is currently sitting around doing bugger all lol. the case is now going to a friend as i have acquired a antec skeleton :D to house my new i7 build. Anyway, if you get stuck drop us a PM ill be glad to help you on your way to a PC gaming rig.

Wootten Bassett Islam March
now that website is just plain ignorance, the British (if they had even taken the time to watch anything informative on the subject) are in Afghanistan on a pure hearts and minds operation, the so called "Taliban" most of the time isn't even Afghanistan solders, they are rebels not even from the country, Muslims? so frigging what, what the hell has the religion got to do with this? why don't they call them by their country and not the beliefs they follow? aah yeah that's it, because they don't frigging know what sodding country is fighting the British / Americans there. My best friend is currently serving his 4th tour of helmand province. and has witnessed first hand that half the so called "freedom fighters" are not of afghan origin, they are mainly mercenaries who pop across the boarder and have a pop at our lads. I'm not racists in the least, i don't care what nationality anyone is, Britain has done its fair share of conquering lands and enforcing our ways on other people for a long time now, we know how its done and did it bloody well. just ask hongkong and India, but what these Easterners are missing the point on, is at the moment the British are there trying to repair the damage, the longer they keep fighting us, the longer it will take for there country to get handed over, britain isnt in it for occupation, they are there as a security force for the towns and villages that want to rebuild a better country for themselves. Ill leave you with this quote.

Will a 300zx fit in a normal size garage?
if you can get a pug 406 in the garage you can fit a zed (front to back) i found it easier getting out of the car with the drivers targa off and window down, then just open the bonnet and remove the fuel pump relay located in the small fuse box drivers side. to stop any would be thieving ratbags from steeling it, due to having easy entry. I miss my Pugs auto window doooy upper on the remote when locking the car.

Any Advice ?????
im guessing no engine pic's due to being resprayed bay side blue, and you would see the old car color, but seriously if advertising your car as 3.5 seconds to 60, you would have at least some description of engine specs, the guy even fails to mention if the engine sounds ok or if its smoking or not

Hi spec pc games
If you want a game that's going to test your graphics card and PC set up in general, then you will be hard pressed to find a better game than CRYSIS or CRYSIS WARHEAD. If you want a game that will test your processing power, then get GTA4 as it relies more on CPU than Graphics card. Crysis is a First person shooter, and if you can run that maxed out, you know you have a beast of a system.

Burst Heater pipe?
That's one of the two pipes that go too and from the heater, and when i did my engine out job, a PITA to get to with the engine in, as i forgot to connect these as i was putting the engine in, only way i managed it was due to not having the gear box attached so could pull the engine forward to give me just enough room to work with. As far as I'm aware (Unless JeffTT knows of another way) its either engine out, or gearbox off (so you can swing the engine forward on the engine mounts) to sort that out.

new O2 sensors
is there a noticeable difference to the engine running when the o2 sensors are disconnected? and do you reconnect them after going for a drive or before, i know its a bit of a silly question.

just who the hell eats them

electrical problem?
if that was the last thing fitted or modified, then id agree that it most likely will be that, unless its rained heavily since then and you have water ingress causing a short in the system, but first step, would be to take the car back and get them to recheck there work for a possible short in the system
