    Hello from Hong Kong

    Here's a Hong Kong arcade vid from a youtuber I follow. It's pretty similar to other arcades I've been to in China.

    How do I get the cigarette smell out?

    Right on, this is what I was thinking of. I think it's around $3 in stores.

    How do I get the cigarette smell out?

    I get these containers of odor absorbing gel balls from walmart that I put inside cabs when I buy them. Takes all the funk out when I leave em in there until they dry out. Not sure if it'll help but might be able to drop that rubber knob into one, or pour it all into a ziplock bag. They have a...

    SEGA Card Reader looping reset mechanism

    I think the wire harness on the card reader or the wire harness going into the cab is the issue here, at least on mine it is. My original one player cab is an Initial D version 1 that still had both card readers, one of the readers is behaving exactly like yours. I recently bought a two player...

    SEGA Card Reader looping reset mechanism

    I've switched card readers between cabs and can confirm that it's the reader itself on the fritz no matter where I moved it. The other good reader always works fine no matter where I put it. I never found a serial number or anything useful for the small sensor in that area to attempt to change...

    SEGA Card Reader looping reset mechanism

    I have the exact problem with one of the card readers in my initial d cabs. It seems random but happens more often than not. I get it to stop by just unplugging it and plugging back in. Might have to do it a few times before it works. Not sure exactly the cause, I assumed it's the black sensor...

    Faster than Speed Troubleshooting, Naomi 2

    First post in this thread has the video of what happens. It behaves very strangely, game goes right back to test menu at startup unless I hold service button down. At startup from test menu it will play the intro video then go to black screen. The game's controls are registering in the setup...

    I checked that "loose" white cable in my IO again. I forgot that's just a quick hack I did to get the shifter to work in the up position for crazy taxi and maximum speed. As others are posting, maximum speed works fine netbooting with a naomi 2. FTS doesn't work. When I have the time I will try...

    Wow, going to have to look into that white cable this weekend. Thanks for catching that.

    Replacement Chassis Help

    Well that sucks. Might not be a problem with the chassis if it still doesn't work.

    Replacement Chassis Help

    That's pretty much the same price and turnaround I had. I've heard it may take longer if he's swamped with work, which is to be expected. Hope it goes well. I was really pleased when I got my stuff back, plugged it in and had a beautifully working old crt glowing back at me. Put the crt in the...

    Replacement Chassis Help

    I shipped a chassis to PNL for repair a few months ago. Had some horizontal issues that I didn't want to mess with. He has the tubes for most monitors so only needed to ship the boards. They did pretty good work and returned it pretty quick.
