ok, whilst this isnt exactly specifically car related, I do intend to race skylines on it....

I got a new xbox, and since many people on here seem to be in to their toys, I was wondering if anyone had a connection in the mod-shop world who do me a good price..... :rofl:

I am led to beleive that chips-aint-chips and that you can add in a whole memory/HD upgrade or something? can anyone fill me in?

Furthermore, I'd be grateful if anyone could recommend some good realistic racing games. (I was a GT2 nut on playstation.) skylines are obviously a prerequisite.

i will find out whats been done

and how much

just for research obviously as this isnt legal ofcourse

haha NFSU is cool coz i have a pearl pink r34 gtr and i chop civics, and i has enkei's on it that arnt dinged!! :rofl:

back to the real world now....as jmp said you can put in big harddrives then copy the game to your harddrive that you "BUY" and then you can play them without the cd whenever you want... i dont think you need a chip to do this but i could be wrong...

I can fit a mod chip for you if want i do them as a second job.I use the xecuter 2.2 lite and 2.2 pro i have 80 and 120 gig hard drives with evox installed and they come with a few extras like mame with 3000 games,N64 and 800 games.I have a heap of games for them too NFS Underground ,Sega GT,race driver,And a cool hacked version of DOA volly ball all the players are naked :headspin:Anyway if you need any advice on what chip to use or need a HDD let me know.

mine has 120gb hd, and it holds apporx. 50 odd games + divx.

If you want good racing games (realistic) try Sega GT, u get GTRs, supras etc and can mod em, very similar to GT3, aslo try Mercedes World Racing, this game sounds shit but is awesome once cracked, u get all the Mercs imaginable all the AMGS, u can turn off traction control and cut the loudest, smokiest and longest nuts than any other game on the market, the handling is realistic as and the levels are massive, V8 race driver is mint too

most ppl seem to be on the right track

definately go with a xecuter chip - make sure its the latest version

hard drive...well its a matter of preference - i prefer to burn games onto hard copy then save them

and project gotham racing 2 is the best car game out now for xbox

    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
