PS2 modding questions..

[GokuSSJ23]

This is my first time ever modding my PS2 system, so I am a noob at this whole process. I was reading this thread:

But I don't get anything said in it, lol. I have the old Phat PS2 model, and would like to know if I need to buy anything to use the method described in that thread if I already have a PS2 codebreaker? Like I want to play imports, and PS2 backups on my PS2, so do I need to open it up and stuff, or can I just use the process in the above thread? Thanks.

http://www.mikestyle.com/tutorials/exploit.htm has the best tuturial on the web.

Thanks seems as if I don't need to have a modified PS2 to play imports, backups, etc. But that link is for a tutorial that is only for modified PS2's. However in it he mentions something about a Sharkport method on a unmodified PS2, which is what I have. Anyone have a link to a tutorial on this?
