Hi guys,

I played gt5 for the first time last weekend and i loved it! looking to get a ps3 of my own. Does anyone have any hook ups or know where the best bargains to be had are? Im located in the liverpool area, but dont mind driving around sydney to get it.

thanks!

i hate myself for pimping EB. deadspace2 and gt5 + 320gb ps3 for 600, make sure you get a hdmi cable (any brand, can be cheap, they still work)

there's one at jbhifi

guaranteed you'll throw out FF13 cause it's poo and ashes... if you're into cricket...? if not, meh. they have a cable with it but they're a negligible cost.

You won't find PS3's cheep, no one discounts them - unless your buying 2nd hand. Just look for the best package deal. I think I bought our 1st one with $2 off.. came with 2 games for like $479 and the 2nd one I bought with a 32 lcd bravia for 1100.

Not necessarily - if you can afford a decent HDMI cable, go for it. Regardless, make sure it's properly insulated, especially if you'll be running it next to power cables or if it's gotta stretch a long way.

I took my PS3 out with me a few weeks ago, and luckily brought 2 HDMI cables with me - the first one would barely work, and when it did produce a picture it had heaps of interference. Plugged in the second one, and problems solved!

    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
    • With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?
    • This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House
