Was going to get mine done a month ago but thought i would wait for a mate to try it out before i did it incase it killed it...

Hes had it done over a month ago and everything has been running fine... the only thing i was wanting to know (he cant tell em cause he doesnt have DSL or cable) is if you get it done if there were any issues with online updates etc.

Anyone?

Im going to get it done anyway... but just wanted to know.

yeah i've got it done, mate did it. Its pretty simple, just a chip wired to the dvd-rom, even if i unplug it, originals still work etc... don't see it as any risk... but i haven't done any updates yet. But can't see how an update can cause any issues, it's just tricking the drive into thinking a copy is a real game, thats all really.

ok sweet... will get it done then.

its only $50... it dies... put a new one in... my mate said last night the guy who did his has had his running solidly for months.

Theres always someone at their house, always kids and theyre always playing it and they havent had any issues.

The modchips more reliable than the system :O

Its only activated for boot up, so its hardly ever getting used.

Nark, its the games that cause the trouble with the Wii, try to only get PAL games.

eg: If u put in an NTSC version of Super Paper Mario in, it updates your machine and turns it into a brick!

Any1 wants theres chipped in Melbourne throw me a PM!!

Nark u have PM!

I was under the impression the disc u may be referring to is a 'setup' disc and is only used once? Or maybe its like oldschool PS2 days where different chips do different things? Whered u get your chip? WES? Devineo?

Got it from ozmodchips

its the Wiikey, i thought you could like run one of the 3 setup disks depending on the region the games from... cause theres PAL, NTSC and JP bootdisks... maybe ur right... i didnt actually read the site properly lol

if you get a LG (or hitachi with the same code) GDR 8164B you can copy them direct to your HDD

thats what i use. Bloody drive cost me $60 tho... people are capatilising on the fact u cant get em in stores any more.

Just go to the local markets... they usually have em (like 13 games for $100)... or download em or hire em

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
