Wii = Nana's corolla (something that is cheap, but gets you from A to B)

PS3 = SS commodore (people with no idea think its the best thing on the road)

Xbox 360 = Z tune R34 GTR (the best all round package by an absolute mile)

Accept it.

No. WRONG.

The Xbox 360 = commodore - its common and it breaks down alot.

PS3 = Z Tune R34 GTR - power house piece of technology, slick styling.

Wii = smart car - cheap, something different, a to b.

rofl thats so stupid

xbox 360: $579.95 + Xbox 360 HD-DVD player: $250 = $830

OR

PS3 with Bluray = $580 (big W)

Seeing as HD-DVD seems to be losing the format wars thats another nail in the coffin for the xbox

Not to mention that you have to buy a specific xbox360 headset when the ps3 can use any blutooth headset etc...

Best all package my arse, the amount of extra accessories you need to spend ontop of the xbox, it doesnt turn out to be such a bargain

PS3 has more powerful hardware compared to 360.

Thats about the only good thing I can think about it atm...

Don't think I have seen mod chips for PS3, but theres plenty of them for 360.

Probably go with 360 much cheaper with mod chips & stuff.

What TV do the people have that you are giving the present to? You won't see any good graphics if you are still using an old CRT (like me :rofl: ) TV.

As for HD DVD vs BRD, I will stick with my trusty DVDs thank you.

If I didn't have a girlfriend the Wii and Gamecube wouldn't be in the house. The Gamecube was a christmas for her a couple of years back because she wanted one and the Wii was a random gift because she wanted one of those. Its not a g/f I need its more money. Just so you know the only consoles still hooked up at are the PS3, Wii and PS2 on the projector in the downstairs lounge room and the Snes, Gamecube and PSone is hooked up in the upstairs loungeroom. I have 3 nephews and 2 nieces that visit weekly with another 2 nephews on the way so it helps keep them entertained while they are here.

Haha comparing consoles to cars, that cracked me up.

I gotta agree with what people are saying though about xbox360 not being that cheap - i paid bout $600 for one just after they came out and then i recently purchased a wireless adapter for it so i coulde use xbox live. The wireless adapter was $145 and xbox live was bout $90 for 1 year.

So all up thats $835 for an xbox360 with xbox live.

From what i have heard the playstation3 comes with a wireless adapter and online is free?

I am pretty keen to get a ps3 actually - not cus i think they are better but its got different games on it ;) i think xbox has some great games on it too, but i am looking forward to playing gt5 and mgs4 they look like awesome games. And ive always been a huge fan of the ff series.

Oh and there's no disputing anymore that bluray will win the next gen dvd war so it also doubles as that which is awesome value.

Its funny, when the ps3 was first released it seemed like such a rip-off compared to the xbo360 - cant help but think the tables have turned now though, the coming year will be a very interesting one in the world of consoles i think.

      AC Compressor

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Sadly, it won't happen. The AC controls in our cars are essentially on-off. Whereas the AC in new stuff is more a case of variable displacement compressors giving infinitely variable output.

      AC Compressor

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I don't think anyone did. But it still made me consider. For me personally it wasn't clear whether the AC experience in my car was shit because it is an old system, or because it wasn't maintained. Looks like it may have just been the latter. I see some more modern setup being sold as an upgrade and I wonder whether it would make it drive like AC in a modern car. Where you don't really hear it or notice it. But maybe that's asking for too much as well.   Haha, stick it in a Nissan Cube and you end up with a driveable fridge I'm not doubting your experience. Just thought it was interesting to hear the AC technician's thoughts on it.

      AC Compressor

      By Butters · Posted

      Guess I should be hunting down one of these big ol ford units then for max flow ....  I've had fresh gas in mine and it was never as cold as it is now . The compressor could have been trash though, like I said I am one example with a bunch of unknowns.

      AC Compressor

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't know if anyone was seriously suggesting a retrofit of an Echo compressor in place of a more-or-less working original comp. You'd have to change the hoses at the bare minimum to do so, and that will definitely add significant cost. I had to get my hoses modded when I did the engine transplant and chose to use the Neo's AC over the even older R32 comp. That was startlingly more expensive than expected for what looks like a simple welding job, and a massive pain in the arse when it turned to have a pinhole leak in the weld too. The Frenchie's kit is for people who have next to nothing of the original system or have more than that but some of it is a bit shit and better off thrown away than salvaged. If you've got 90% of the system, you just patch it up. Mine is currently degassed because it apparently has a big leak somewhere. If I find it is the compressor, I will be looking to take my spare comp to a shop to assess and/or recondition, rather than contemplating a retrofit to anything off-brand.

      AC Compressor

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I went and got the aircon regassed in the Stagea today and asked the guy about the upgrade to the Toyota Echo compressor. He was saying it is likely not going to be as good. It is newer but smaller and not going to pump as strongly. And it would be better to try and get a new OEM compressor. He was saying that the improvements people are seeing may be more likely due to regassing the system. I thought it was interesting to hear. Going by the sticker the system in my car was last checked in 2015. Gas was at 50% which is apparently beyond terrible. Under 80% is where efficiency already falls apart. Anyways, with fresh gas the AC is now bloody freezing. I think it may be working a bit less hard as well. I need to drive it a bit more to try it properly. Previously on hill starts it would utterly bog down the car. I'm hoping this is a bit better now. The frenchies kit looks great, but $1400 for the compressor upgrade alone makes it a bit of commitment. Very much so compared to a $150 regas.
