Hey guys, Not so car related but does anyone know where i can get my xbox 360 flashed to play backups and how much would it cost? Prefer if there was someone in SE Suburbs that can do it.. my mate did it to his but ive got this newer dvd drive its a BenQ which is reaaaaaaaally complicated to do so i'd prefer to pay to get it done properly..

Anyone know?

Thanks

In order to make backup copies you will need a DVD Burner that if capable of having its ROM flashed to a certain standard (forget what it is) to allow for backing up.

I recommend Cavern Imports. Ive used them before for my PS2. My mate recently had them alter his XBox 360 and they provided him information on which Burner to buy, etc. I believe they have a couple of locations. One we have used is in Boronia Mall.

DogKnight: Really? My mate flashed his himself, and he says when he wants to make backups of originals u need to go through a whole procedure, but im just going to be using image files and burning them onto Dual Layer discs most likely and that works fine he says.. Cavern Imports looks good they charge $85 but thats quite a long way away from where i live

(00)SKYLINE(00): Its Xbox360 not at a Wii ;) serial number looks nothing like that one u said..

Do they still have those stalls at Carribean Gardens that could do it?

This one looks good http://www.acegamestore.com/product.aspx?B...p;ProductID=503 Its $60 plus whatever it costs for me to shit it to them, and that includes them shipping it back insured so hmmm..

If you do it, be careful if you currently use Xbox Live. It doesnt like it. My mate and I experimented with switching hard disks, sign in ID's etc to test after he had his done.

Incidently, mine is for sale if anyone is interested. Shameless plug I know but includes 2 controllers, 1 remote, PGR3 game and very minimal playing time. Have the original box too. ;)

Ahh ok my bad i misread it.. Im just gonna go to this guy in Springy so its close by and only $50... I just cant wait to play GTA4 tomorrow night :)

Dual layer discs are like $3.50 each and most people are putting the games up for like $10 so no use buying them if its gonna cost so much, most i'd pay is $5 each for a game to be honest

Yeah you could probably flash it yourself. However I think whe Cavern do it they put some sort of warranty on it. Also if they f**k it up they need to fix it. If you f**k the flashing up, then you have an expensive doorstop.

Jamie, ill check the serial number tonight, thanks.

If any1 needs their wii modded I can also organise. Should also have a couple of fully modded/pimped put brand new Wii's in the next couple of weeks, throw me a PM if your interested (another shameless plug :P )

Cosmo, make sure your careful in which images u select to burn/play on your 360. Look it up, u know vital info like making sure u dont play leaked games till their official region release, checking the image with mulleter, etc. Just small lil precautions should keep your live account alive longer.

Saff, how much u want for the 360? Looking for an R&D machine.

Man im going nuts here i got it done from that guy in springvale, i borrowed 2 backup's from my mate that he did from renting them at Blockbuster.. anyway they keep coming unreadable disc! Rang the guy back up like wtf it dont work but works on his.. he said its because the games have to be stealthed to be undetectable on xbox live or they dont work.. Mulleter showed me it aint stealthed so yeah guess ill have to find it to download..

Yeah well GTA4 will be finished in about 30 mins so that seems to be pre-stealthed (http://www.abgx.net/filename/?ch=6).. But i dont plan to plug in to xbox live until its officially released because yeahh not out for another week or so.. I dont care as much about live im just dieing to play GTA4 thats why i rushed down to get my xbox flashed this afternoon!

      For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...

      I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
