Hia people

I got initial-d: special stage at a manga shop few weeks ago but now need a mod-chip to play. Hook me up please.

I am stuck with xr: tokyo drift for now - this game looks so fun though!

You going to be installing it yourself?  
If not you’re further ahead just going to pacific mall.  
~$100 gets you a mod chip and 3 free games.

I don’t know how proficient you are at soldering. But this is by no means an easy job. I’ve F$ct 3 Ps2 bios chips because the leads got too hot and seperated. The leads are about the thickness of a razor blade apart and you need to solder 3 wires to them… have fun but don’t cry too hard when it doesn’t work anymore.

or spend the $100 and get 3 games.

I remember toasting a few PS1’s way back when.  
Fat tips are bad.
