If you have a 100 or 101 chipset (the middle numbers on the bottom your your unit serial number) then it is $120, if you have a newer unit with 102 or 103 serial it is $190. Both varieties take 1 day.

Hi all, check xpunked.com.........

Ohhh and this is for South Australian readers only, sorry!!!!

Andrew did mine for $90 or something like that.

Also its worth knowing that there are a few different types of Wii hardware setups (the older wii's) are easier to mod and will cost you less ($50 - $60).

The newer wii's will cost you a little more at about $90. You can sit and watch it being done if your into that kinda thing or just drop it off. Andrews pretty chilled out about it all!

Ohh and i also had my xbox (original one) chipped for $50 which was an awesome investment. Popped a 750 GB HDD in it and its got all my movies, music, pics and programs on it. Awesome console now with great interface and programs, id highly reccomend doing this mod for any of the xboxers out there!!!

Regards, Evan

^^^ Wii's don't have hard drives, and I have never heard of one with a hard drive, but if it did that would be very cool.

No, no problems, but I have found that mine is fussy on DVD brand, but have found a couple of brands now that work perfectly.

i guess sled that you and i are too old to understand english nowdays :-)

cheers mid life crisis

Ha, ha, yeah good point.

I tried pasting Kietz's quote into an online english translator but my computer froze as soon as I did it. So I kicked it and it came back with alien language and all these little green men jumped out of my speakers.

Sorry for taking the piss Kietz.......its all good fun. :)

just thought id drag up the past and add does anyone have trouble burning the games? my friend just got his chipped and the guy that did it was saying you need special software installed on your pc and a certain dvd burner to be able to make the games if your copying from an original disk.

sounds like hes just trying to con $8's a disk off my mate :w00t:

yep, burning backup games (which is quite legal since I own the originals and am just backing up my originals so I don't wear out/scratch the original disks) is a royal pain in the ass. I haven't tried to copy an original game, as it is just too difficult - yes you need special software to manipulate the iso once you have made it, before you image it onto a blank disk. And yes you need an LG burner of specific model to do it. Once someone has copied the game, you can them straight copy it. BUT you need to use certain brands/types of blanks too - the ones I have had the most success with ids the Target brand 'Base', and TDK DVD-RW disks. Even then some work and some don't work - it is quite hit and miss.

Even if one were to download Wii games, you have to use the correct brand/type blanks and again I hear is very hit and miss.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
