hey,

Just wondering if anyone knows anything about the NEW Sony PSP, As i have seen them for sale (pre-order) for like $400; but i could pick one up today for like $250-$300, its a Jap NTSC one but i was reading that the games are not region lock which means i can still play games from australia (PAL).

Any info on it would be cool.

Cheers Michael

PSP was out in japan last year around Christmas, same time Nintendo DS came out. It's 20,000 yen in japan, which is, like you said Mikey, around $230-250 australian.

well if there's any comment i'd say it's better than the Nintendo DS... i think... i havent played the PSP but my sis has the DS (i dont like it that much =/ )

Yeh the PSP is good sh!t :(

I've had mine for the last few months and i use it all the time. I was lucky enough to get one with firmware version 1.0 which allows me to run homebrew applications and to play iso games off the memory stick. Version 1.50 will also run homebrew and there are rumours that v1.51 and v1.52 will soon be able to downgrade their firmware to v1.50 allowing you to run homebrew. I believe the Australian release PSP will come shipped with version 2.0 loaded which while having the added feature of a web browser, prevents you from running 'unauthorised' software, aka homebrew.

I hardly play any games on it... i have isos of many games but have yet to try them out. I mainly use the psp for music, video, photo viewing and homebrew apps. The homebrew scene for the PSP is very strong and there are many many new appz being released all the time which extend the psp's capabilities.

Check out: www.pspupdates.com

All in all, highly recommended, but if you can, try to get v1.5.

      I am well aware as I did rant at him to buy a MX5, buy the 2.5 before he DIY'ed it, etc as well as do things to the holden. He will obtain a ND. It's the best of both worlds. They look great in person, definitely the best looking one. Just a matter of time now.

      This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
