Cheers, anything gotta be better than the average $150 and 2 month wait with Microsoft.

ye.

if its a perma fix he can do, he'll tell ya. If not, he will just give it back no charge :)

He's an old SAU'er from '02-'04 or there abouts.

my ps3 had the flashing light of death.

Put it in the oven for 5 minutes, let it cool down and it worked :D

Some chump at the markets wanted $200 and wouldnt guarantee it would work

(ps3 gets the red flashing light of death because the cpu overheats and detaches from the motherboard. Putting it into the oven remelts the solder and bridges the connection)

Well have a look and advise

Will make decision tomorrow

I approve this skin.

Never had a problem with my PS3. You mad xbox?

Bike update, bought a sick helmet today, gloves too. Just finished re-fitting the stock pipe and aids fender (should be illegal due to hideousness), went ghetto on the fender but should pass the roady tomorrow, then it's straight off

Xbox has the same problem, CPU and GPU heatsinks don't stay clamped down enough and vibrations + heat make the components seperate from the motherboard over time. You can also fix an Xbox by putting it in the oven, but it doesn't always work and you can easily damage the other components on the MB. It fixed my mate's Xbox, though afterwards, his Xbox would occasionally freeze with intense graphic gameplay. Ash's mate reckons $85 but not guaranteed to fix...they use a rework station though which is much safer than ye olde oven lol.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
