No its isn't you just cant use psn which was always going to be the case. The hack is freely available on the net you just buy one of the many usb boards and flash it. I did works great. Hell you can even load the crack from an android phone or a ti-84 calculator lol.

Ye now the hardware is out there it'll mass clone and you'll never be able to stop it.

To expect to use online with a crack, is silly anyway.

Friend of mine who mods concoles is gearing up i believe ;)

  • 2 weeks later...

Got one last week, works great so far, for downloaded games there is now an app you put on the ps3 then transfer straight from your pc to the internal hdd of your ps3, other legit games you just rip from the disc straight to your ps3.

One problem is that play tv wont work while the usb stick is working.

Its not just sony who are trying to block this, apparently F1 2010 will not work with firmware older than 4.42 when it comes out, no doubt gt5 will be the same, but also by then they will have it working with those firmwares anyway.

3 points tho, 1 you won't get one that is plug and play, Sony took them to court and had them made illegal, however there is software readily available to program them. 2 because of there popularity most places will be out of stock. 3 if you updated your firmware to 3.42 they won't work.

True that. My idiot mate had played Resident Evil 5 on his 360 whilst online before the game was officially released. Ass raped nicely... well, just banned really lol

haha my friends played mw2 before release date. had a nice game with the guys at infinity ward... till his console got banned

$29us delivered and upgraded, and f1 2010 works on 3.41 to as i played it today, just had a few controller issues but sorted out now with that game :-)

did you buy one?

They are now illegal in aus so they may not send them here.

no, i have the teensy board when they first came out. And yeah i know they are illegal in australia but im pretty sure you can get it past customs pretty easy...

It says on there page that they ship world wide but when ozmods got there first batch of maximus's in customs held them for inspection, might just have been that they were involved in the court case.

i also think there is a bit of a difference between 1 person getting one and a whole shipment coming in for sale.

would be interesting to know if it's one of those silly laws where it's illegal to sell or use the item in australia but not illegal to own.

yeah i was thinking the same thing, 1 seems alot easier than 100 to go through customs...

I am starting to miss playing online though now, might have to buy another ps3 now for online gaming :-(

^ The ps3 mod is a plug and play feature, basically remove the usb stick and you don't have the mod and your ps3 acts as normal.

I'm waiting for my board to come in from my supplier, I'll be distributing them for cost price once I build the first few. I'll keep you guys up to date.

yeah but you cant play online and be jail broken due to the firmware only working on 3.41 and lower... you need to be on the most recent sony firmware for online... and there is no way to downgrade your firmware if your on 3.42 or 3.5.

and medal of honour is the first game that wont work on jailbroken ps3's due to requiring version 3.42 or higher

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
