Hey all, Just got a Psp Slim. It has firmware version 3.95, Im trying to load 4.01 m33-2 but ive been reading guides and all I have find is that I require a Pandara battery mod which doesnt really interest me..

This is my 2nd Psp and I managed in the first to load 3.77m33 without any battery mods. So whats changed?? I forgot how I did the last one...

Any help greatly appreciated!

if your new psp is slim and lite. then you will have some trouble downgrading it. It's mainly because slim and lite can't downgrade to a firmware that is easily flashed.

that's why Pandora Battery is the most eaiest way because it will downgrade and flash it at once.

If you still have your 2nd PSP and that is the fat (version 1) version. then use your battery as a pandora battery.. flash your slim and lite PSP and then turn your battery back into a normal battery again (i've done this plenty of times).

Lol how did you kill your battery?

I got the PSP when it first came out..

Hooked up with custom firmware.

Lovin' life best investment i ever made.

Currently playing Final Fantasy: Crisis Core and by far the best graphical and cinematic orientated game to grasp the capabilities of the PSP !

Beer Baron, wanna sell it? Original Jap PSP = Better Screen :P

33SOM, once u get the battery sorted the rest is childs play. Dont give up perseverance will pay off!!

BTW: Depending on your method ull prolly have to flash 4.01 M33-1 first then upgrade it with -2, then load the 1.50 kernel add on, and remember if 1.50 homebrew games dont work, try putting them into the 4XX folder.

Just throw me a PM if u need any help.

I got a pandora battery. Flashed my PSP slim to m33 and it works beautifully. You can basically download gams and load them onto the memory stick and load them straight off it. Can also run emulator to play arcade games as well. Don't have much time to play with it now thou. If you are in sydney and need a hand unbricking hand, send us a PM.

I have the Phat PSP and tried to work out how to use custom firmware but I didn't get very far :merli:

Are there any FAQs or anything like that? Not sure what firmware update I have i'll have a look when I get home.

Ive been playing Gran Tursimo 2 converted from ps1 :merli:

BigJimmy there are plenty of guides out there. You just have to google for them.

U dont need a Pandora battery for firmware earlier than 3.40 i believe.

U need a Fat Psp with custom firmware to make a pandora battery with a program which is reversable. So I broke my battery for nothing lol

I can do PSP mods for you guys for only $20 if you want.

I have a few pandora batteries that also act as a normal battery for sale.

If you live too far to get to me I can post out the pandora and also a magic memory stick.

To be honest though, once you get a pandora, it is piss easy.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
