ANYONE who has this problem, or knows anyone that could help, it would be GREATLY appreciated...

The Screen in my car can not support Pal-60 mode on the Xbox (it goes black and white), only Pal-50... some games do not run in Pal-50 at all...

i would like to amend this somehow that doesn't involve paying another 2k for a head unit... plus im pretty sure there is only one that can do it, and its not even released as of yet...

im thinking a converter of some type... maybe i could convert the high def signal to pal 50 or something... i dunno...

so any info, anyone thats done this, anyone that knows anyone or a shop that has done this... any of this information would be fantastic :glare:

dude xbox 360 is crap.

i got one the munite they were released...it froze 2 hours after i opened it!!! so i got a replacement one for free of course....that died about a month and a half ago. took it back to harvey norman and they sent it off to be repaired. its taken 39 days so far and harvey norman still dont know when ill get it back. they said theres some ppl that have waited 60 days and nothing...

then today my workmate said he ws watching a morning show and M$ have admitted that about 40% of the 360 consoles have fatal errors.

im soo pissed off..i got 512k adsl installed like 2 weeks ago mainly for playing xbox live...lucky i have an orig xbox so i can play halo2 and pgr2 online...

wouldnt risk the 360 mate. they are time bombs. puting it in ur car is asking for trouble. just my advice

what the f**k did that have anything to do with anything in this thread?

welcome to Microsoft's world of meeting deadlines... your a fool for buying it when it first came out, i waited quite some time...

its on the floor next to me til i can figure out how to play Forza in the car :D normally it sits in the boot next to the battery...

though a better place might be on the side of the boot where your car jack shit normally is... but i have a 10 stacker there...

why, thinkin about doing the same thing? :D

Well one.. you're a knob.. my 360 died.. rang the number got a RMA form.. sent off and got back 6 days later..

And yes the morning show did say they are having problems with ONE! particular error.. and they have now extended warranty on that error to 3 years..

Keep your MS bashing noobness amongst you and your mates

having a ps2 or xbox1 in the car is the smart idea. you can set them up to play games off a HARD DRIVE.

dont hold your breath for that to happen with a X360 or a Ps3 yet... microsoft said ppl that get caught via their scanning systems playing games in suspiecous manner will have their NIC address of their x360 banned off xbox live for life. and if you buy a xbox360 solely for car you must be thik in the head... lol. id go ps3, it has less issues, just make sure you give either console breathing room, possibly its own air duct to outside.

you are a total ass. i just tried to advise you on thinking twice b4 puting the 360 in your car and you attack me. go f%*k yourself.

if your just going to use it in ur car you could get it chipped then you wont need to leave the disks in your car, which would be a piss off if they got stolen. its not like your going to be playing over the net from the car.

i dont know about the new xbox chipping but on the old 1 you can switch between pal and ntsc which might get it working on your cars screen.

the new ones can change, and i use the xbox for both in car and at home... plus i drive the car a lot less now, so its only in there sometimes...

i still haven't put it in to check this, and i doubt i will cause im making some switches for some other shit first...

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
