  1. Glad you clarified the CA versus super. I have both and would have used the wrong one.

    Stop the dimming!

    Don't want to high jack, but do you wanna copy me too fryr? Or start a discussion post in the Auto section. As for your alternator, you may get close enough finding an Infiniti model that will bolt in, my guess is that they would be significantly larger and probably okay and better at idle. Not sure on the rice burners, but Lincolns definetely come with a bigger version than their Ford counterpart. Worth looking into, but I know nothing of the new Infinities. Loved the first Q45's though, just unbelievably expensive to fix.

    I am the opposite, I can't stand to take my hands off the keyboard to touch a mouse. Still using the original Windows 3.1 shortcuts...XP still supports them. Might be one of the only things they haven't butchered on the way. Can't figure out the dam "ADD REPLY" shortcut on this site though

    Foobar has all of the good of WinAmp and almost none of the bad. Just the marketing hype removed. Steeper learning curve though.

    Yep, but you can preset to your hearts delight. How long before car/home players will play double layer DVD with FLAC do you think? From the reading I have done it seems like a logical next step.

    Hey speaking of vinyl, I have to cover my tweeter pods (hopefully in the next couple of hours) and can easily stretch/glue the vinyl over the top, but don't know how to fixture it on the backside. Here is a pic of the pod. To give you a size estimate the cutout is less than 2", the thickness of the plastic/glass/bondo sides are about a 1/4" thick. I just don't know how to terminate the vinyl around the outside or trim it. What should I do?

    Easy to fix. Download Foobar. Much better than any Microsuck product, written by the guy who developed WinAmp after marketing took it over and allows you to convert, play and do about anything. The play mode doesn't stress the cpu at all. Another side note for you rippers, if you aren't using Exact Audio Copy to convert to FLAC you are losing a lot of information and don't have good copies. WinAmp with a FLAC converter completely butchers non-perfect CD's. Need direction let me know.

    Oddly addicting ... I can't seem to stop playing FYI, you need a lot of RAM ... Takes up 384 MB with 5 players halfway through the game ... I tried playing with 8 players and it was using up 425 MB of RAM and 3.86 GB of Page File by the 1600s (30-60 seconds between turns for my computer; 2500+ overclocked to 2035 MHz, 512 MB of PC333, highly overclocked GeForce4 MX440, overclocked AGP slot) This is the only game I've had that has stressed my computer to a point where it's noticably slow ... What sort of clock speeds can you get out of the MX440?

    Hey 350TPI where did you take it? Have to make sure to not recommend that place to anyone. MF's
  21. Stock sail panel locations--highly modified to fit though. If it sounds like bunk because of the separation, I will remount them in the kicks with such a small format tweet they go down there pretty easy, especially with the angle pad mounts I can modify from an old set of Infinities.

    WTF....Need Help

    At Checker (if you have those) they will rent you the OBDII computer for free (requires a drivers license and credit card#) . I pull up, hook it to the car and get what I need and leave.
  23. Hey any of you try to compare a FLAC lossless file with a real one? I am just starting to rip my music collection to my PC. My thoughts were to rip it twice. The first time in FLAC to backup to DVD and another in MP3 just to leave on the machine. If the lossless truly is such I would think someone would be coming out with a new HU that plays DVD format FLAC discs, but of course that would be logical. If FLAC sucks is there anything else that might do what I am looking to? The main reason I want to do the FLAC to DVD is in if they change it in the future I don't want to go through the reloading of all the CD's again as it is a serious PITA!

    Really sounds like a flaky connection then. Was the weather different today? Sounds to me like you need an H701.
