I got these also, did you find the build quality to be poor? When I was putting them together they were really fiddly (the way they're split up into 3 different parts, the prongs would bend very easily when connecting them), and the coloured wires would sit very loosely on the connection points. Maybe I got a poor set.. did you have these problems by any chance?

No problems for me, maybe you got the first-revision adapters by mistake.

A bit of tape probably the best quick-fix solution.

They have a couple of of HRAPs in GameStop Abbey Street for 110 quid now, I was going to get one but they are only PS3.

Anyone know where to get a decent stick in Dublin for XBOX360?

I have a nice TE but want to get a second stick for offline play

anyone got a spare "c clip" for a sanwa stick lying about they dont need?
was cleaning stick and it sprung off into the unknown :(:(

I'll have a root around in my spare-parts bin, but I can't actually find the size of E-clip needed from a hardware store - possibly 3/8" (9.5mm).

Maybe try rooting around your floor with a strong fridge magnet?

Anyone here got the HORI HRAP VF5FS stick? It's a seriously sexy thing. I've been off and on about getting it but unfortunately, they're out of stock now .

I might just consider changing the artwork on my TE to some sort of VF5FS theme though.

Nice Aoi template! . I think I'll be making an Akira themed one myself. Just too lazy to install PSP7 :P (yep, I'm old school )

Are you sure it's not the Sega layout? Afaik, that's the Blast City cab layout. I was messing around on Art's Hobbies with the Panel Builder and found that the only difference between the Blast City layout and the Vewlix layout were the additional 5 buttons and joystick position (it's a bit lower in the Blast layout) but if you were to play VF using just the 3 buttons using the VF layout (X, A: G / Square, X: P / Triangle, Y: Kick), the buttons will have the same spacing as if you were using an Blast City panel so it's not worth having a Blast City panel if you'll be using the same 3 buttons as the Vewlix panel.

To be pedantic about it though, the three buttons that would generally be used for VF are slightly higher, and I mean, slightly higher up in the Blast City layout.

If you use a different set of buttons though, then yes, I could understand how the layouts would differ.

Anyone willing to insert a ps360+ into my Hori VLX and RAP V3 (both PS3)?

Also, would anyone know if this would allow me to play on a Korean XBox?

Yes and yes.

Up to €70 sounds about right.

A pity it's PS3, since most players here are Xbox (and nothing noteworthy has come out for PS3-importers lately).

Cheers lads. Alright, I'm putting it out here now... stick is available for €60 if anyone is interested. I can meet in Limerick, or will be in Dublin on Monday 4th March. I'm selling on his behalf.

Nobody is going to buy a used round one TE for anywhere close to that much.

Well, it's all about market value. If say, you try to sell it for €90 and advertise it in the right places (SRK, neoempire, etc.), it could be sold easily because it'll be cheaper than everyone else. I've sold a number of items based on this principle. The Madcatz promotion is £75 when you factor in shipping costs so cost-wise, if you sold it for €90, it'll still be around the same amount of money and that promotion isn't going to last very long.

If you're interested in keeping it, I have some modding experience so I could dual mod it if that's what you want. Up to you.
