Okay turns out wiibrew says 003 is 100% fixable, provided a modchip/drivechip is installed.

Here's what they say:
Error 003 Wiis can only boot in region game discs from the recovery menu. Due to the enhanced region blocks of system menu 4.2/4.3, it is not possible to update these error 003 4.2/4.3U/J/E Wiis to 4.3K and there is no known disc with 4.3K update on it. One way to fix a 003 error Wii is to replace IOS70/80 with IOS60-v6174 installed into IOS slot 70/80. Installing IOS60-v6174 into IOS slot 70/80 will remove the Korean key check found in IOS70/80, thus fixing the Wii.

Currently all USA/PAL error 003 Wiis can be fixed by loading Super Smash Bros. Brawl from the recovery menu, running Smash Stack PAL then installing IOS60-v6174 into IOS slot 70/80.

Due to the enhanced region checks of system menu 4.2/4.3, Super Smash Bros. Brawl cannot be directly loaded from the system menu. However these region checks can be bypassed by loading an in region game disc, then swapping the disc to SSBB-PAL and restarting the Wii. There are a variety of methods depending on the game used; some games work, many games do not work.

All error 003 Wiis 4.2/4.3U/E are 100% fixable providing you have a modchip. Disc swapping methods utilizing "Mario Kart-PWNS" and DiscSwap-PWNS" will fix the issue. Unfortunately SSBB-PAL/Kor will not load on a Wii with the Japanese language setting, so SSBB can not be used as SSBB-Jap will not autoboot.

If SSBB cannot be used to fix error 003, the only other solution is to load an IOS used by a game that has the Trucha bug present, then disc swap to an app to fix the Wii using that IOS. If a NAND backup was made with BootMii or the NAND keys where acquired prior to the brick, NAND programming can also be used to fix this error.

ok please chill lol
where would I get the legit disc?
Edit: Also, would the legit disc be able to boot?
find the disc online, and yes it should be able to boot I think, I feel like I'm trying to solve a darned rubix cube right now. (also just noticed you use Luma3DS on your 3DS, nice)

I understand Mario Kart PWNS and SSBB PAL are needed right?
How do I do the quoted part?
Edit: Oh shoot I was downloading SSBB ntsc-u

Dude. Stop trying to burn the game to a CD-r. you need the LEGET disc. also, to do a quote, use this:

"

", or you can use the "insert..." button in thwe top bar on the little box you tybe the message in.

Hey, that's what I do. Helping out! (Also this one time I accidentally bricked the DS mode on my N3DS. I learned my lesson not to mess with nand stuffs unless you know what you're doing.)

Priiloader needs a working system menu ios to run, which he doesn't have

Also did you know about code tags?
Code:

Sorry for the dumb question, but in the scenario that my smash stack works,
Do I boot into hackmii installer, install hbc, exit the installer, and go do a nand restore?
I have no idea on how to do a ios overwrite so...

Do u even have a nand backup from before bricking that you could restore even if u wanted to?

Run ModMii's hackmii solutions guide, but instead of (or in addition to) the wads listed in the guides install wads step, also install IOS80(IOS60 patched).wad. Grab it from ModMii Classic's download page 2 (I think the toggle code is "80").

after you get smashstack working, and install bootmii, I'd redo smashstack but with a .dol that goes straigt to bootmii
Smashstack works on the us version of SSBB too right? When you talk about going straight to bootmii, do you mean the bootmii menu? (with gray buttons and stuff) Also how do I do the .dol file thing?

Smash stack on your wii rn needs you to insert a korean Wii Game, disc-swap to a PAL SSBB Disc, then reboot the wii, and di smash stack for the PAL version of the game. and I think there was a homebrew app that would take the user to bootmii, but it only worked for the IOS version of Bootmii, and I'm not sure if BootMii goes before Priiloader in the boot process, or if it's the other way around.

U can just run the hackmii installer from the exploit, when u exit it loads up the homebrew channel, from there u can launch either bootmii or other homebrew.

Bootmii installed as boot2 is first homebrew in the boot sequence, then priiloader. Bootmii as IOS isn't part of the boot sequence at all
