Recommended Posts

Hey guys, i'm sure this topic has been discussed a million times. But has anyone of you got the most recent prices of PS 3 80GB console in stores? Which stores are more likely to give a better deal? JB Hi Fi? Harvey Norman?

Thanks

built better lol they're all built well and fine...

all PS3 can play PS1 games and if you dont need to play PS2 games just get a 40GB or 80GB PS3 and upgrade the hard drive to something like 250, 320 or 500 GB :blink:

got the 80gb from EB, id say they'll give the best price, from what i have seen their price is the lowest and theyll match and competitors if you just tell them somewhere is selling cheaper (theyll call them to confirm)

EB? Good price? LOL sure they'll match but might aswell go to the competitors in the first place and support the places that dont sell at a rip off price - new release games are generally $89 at Game or JB HiFi as oppose to $120 at EB Games...

PS3 60GB Aus delivered (Plays PS1/PS2, 4 USB ports) $700-1000

PS3 80GB Aus delivered $700 in shops?

Ps3 40GB Aus delivered $400-$550

40gb and 80gb are identical in that both can't play ps1/ps2 games and both have 2 usb ports instead of 4 which the 60gb has.

I know cause i bought a 60gb for 700 and sold it for 1.2k while they were hot

lol @ eb being cheapest

Jb hi fi will be the cheapest, of course eb will price match but why would you bother when you can just go straight to JB for more stock and selection.

Id be hesitant to get a console over ebay for warranty sake etc

40/80GB CAN play PS1 games - I've played GT2, MGS1 and FF7 on the PS3... its just PS2 it cant.

f**king hell. The current promotion is a free sony title from the following when you purchase a ps3.

Motorstorm pacific rift

Resistance 2

Little Big Planter

Any singstar PS3 bundle.

If you can find it for under 700 you've got a good deal. f**k screwing around to get an extra 10 or 20 dollars off.

    • I know there's been no posts for 3 years, but figured it wasn't worth starting a new thread for my question. The nice Japanese lady in my V36 occasionally/randomly speaks to me whilst I'm driving.  Of course my Japanese is very rusty, I'm guessing it's to do with the Nav system? Anyone have knowledge on this?
    • there are probably many ways to do it for my bosch motorsport abs we used a r33 gtst abs front knuckle and modified the rear knuckle to allow sensor to sit and read understand time, effort and $$ but reading from anywhere else  you get diff chatter etc where you lose 30% ish in signal clarity compared to the above
    • Little more work!  Did some body work on the rear wheel arches and since the paint was a cheap spray job before figured I’d do something to tide me over until I wrap the car.    Colour might not be everyone’s choice but I like it and it’s only temporary, just hate having primer from the wheel arches standing out.    Keeping an eye out for a decent set of wheels to throw on now. Wheels and tires on the car are junk
    • Its likely to be 70% road 30% track usage, track usage will increase if anything. Decided not to fit it as I cant be arsed changing the bushes on my LCAs again 🤣 I did get the below back from GKTech though so they should work together     The anti-squat kit and roll center adjusters work independently since they change the rear lower control arm's angle in different ways. The anti-squat kit adjusts the angle from front to back, which impacts anti-squat values. Roll center adjusters change the angle side to side, mainly to correct geometry on cars that are significantly lowered. They might affect each other a tiny bit, but overall, you can think of them as separate.
    • What are you doing with the car? street car or race car? People get hung up on the squat of the s/r chassis rears. There is positives to the squat if a car is setup and driven correctly for it (correct ride height, spring rate, alignment, damper valving). Generally just lengthen the rear traction arm by 5-10mm and that will help the squat and bump steer too. You are also correct with the roll centre too. This too also needs to be adjustable if you start messing with suspension geometry.   Having done quiet a bit of testing on race cars this year in regards to rear squat, I've seen some big positives from it in regards to drive off corners and traction.
