My B-Spec driver is a complete imbecile. I get so turned off every time I try to level him up because he drives like a 5 year old.

I hardly log here anymore.
Hey Mike, how'd you get wheels on the Silvia? I thought you couldn't put wheels on a standard car?

Definitely, I've already put more hours into it than any of my other PS3 games. I've found most of the haters either are hard to please, or weren't GT or racing-sim fans in the first place and should have stuck with Need for Speed or Burnout.

I'm going to play with photo mode some more tonight and get some pics of my main cars up here.

Where the balls did you guys get your classic Euro and Jap classic cars for their two respective amateur races? I can't find either one.

Mike, nice shots by the way. Agreed on the favorites.

Classic Jap I just got lucky and found an old Skyline in the used car lot, it kicked ass on every car out there. For classic Europe I bought a "new" 76 Ferrari 512BB, it leveled the field in A and B spec. From what I remember there are a few other cup races I can use it for in the Amateur and Pro series.

1999 Celica GT
For classic Jap, I found a Dome Zero concept (170hp) in the used section. And for Euro and World classic car, I used a '61 E-Type that I also bought used. Man, that E-Type is amazing.

YAY! The whole reason I wanted to play the game...

Its amazing playing some of the tracks from the original GT game... and seeing how they've "developed" over the years/platforms. Crazy stuff... anyways, on to mah new BABY!

The entire reason I love this car so much is because it was my FAVORITE car in GT1 - I will never forget that game.

I picked one up earlier, used it for the 90s challenge lol.

Has anyone seen it come in any color other than the blue? I've seen it 3 or 4 times in the used car list and it's always the same color. Wouldn't mind owning another biggrin.gif

1999 Celica GT
blu94gt and KAOS, how do you like the way the GT-Four handles? Because when I got mine, it had horrible understeer. So I got a fully adj suspension kit and however extreme I tune it for oversteer, it refuses to turn. I really dislike how the GT-Four handles frown.gif

and what are your PSN usernames? Gotta find you guys aha

I haven't seen the gt-4 in any color but blue. I think that I need to take a break from the game for awhile after getting to level 20. I have just spent ALOT of money on a Gallardo and 512 italia just to get my butt kicked by stock cars. I have been blowing money like its nothing for the fun of it. Oh and I have found that my B-spec driver is great when I give him my Veyron for the French challenge, or my gallardo for the beginner Italian challenge!

My B-Spec driver is retarded! I give him my 170hp MX-5 and he slides all over the place. I give him my 780hp ZR1 and he drives like a champ! That doesn't make sense!!!

Same here. I need a historic supercar, but it's going to take a really long time to save up 20,000,000.....
I also need a tuning car, a Gallardo, a Ferrari, and a classic American muscle.


But I got my AE86 Shuichi Shigeno ver.! I wasted 60,000 on it, but I don't care.

Edit: I just won an '08 Mazda Furai concept and HOLY BALLS it's fast. In my ZR1, I do the Cape Ring Periphery in appox. 1:43 and in the Furai, I did it 10 seconds faster. It was amazing!

Just bought one. If it's not up to par, I'm hunting you down. Don't worry, I'll buy you a beer after.

Alright, this game is starting to annoy me a bit. It's a little sad that Grand Theft Auto has more realistic crash physics and AI. When you're racing and staying on course, everything's fine...but as soon as you crash, it all goes to ****. The sounds suck, it feels like a four-year-old did the crash simulations, and the AI doesn't know how to react when there's an obstacle. Utterly stupid and irritating.

Sounds like you're more of a burnout kinda guy tongue.gif

I'm talking about lack of realism.

See, perfect example. Going through the chicane at Cote d'Azur and this stupid **** spins me out because I overtake him in the corner.

The other thing that irritates me is some of the "special challenges" in both the rally and the Christian loeb?(I think) challenge I can be going flat out in equally built cars, and somehow manage to lose by 12-15 seconds. I am not sliding the whole time either it just doesn't make sense. Then the Nascar thing I can't not hit cones or the wall while going flat out at Daytona! I just need to walk away from the game and focus on Finals I think:/

Hey Ferdi, that was starting to annoy me to. UNTIL I found out that once you get to lv.40, you get FULL physics. Metal crunching, flipping over, sliding, doors ripping off, tires warping. Looks like Polyphony left the good stuff to the real dedicated people.

Nah, the full physics are there from the start. It's just that only rally cars and race cars are capable of full damage modelling.

Try it yourself in arcade mode with a rally car... you can destroy them.

The celica in the game is a SS-II right?? with 197hp

Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle partshttp://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...p;#entry1107514
There's both the GT-4 and ss-II
Hey Mike, could I borrow your 427 Cobra for the classic muscle race? I'll let you borrow my Furai concept for the GT World Championships if you need it.

What are the typical opponents for all stars? Because if they're similar to the GT World Championships, you'll have no problem owning them. biggrin.gif Keep in mind, my Mazda Furai has 500hp, weighs 675kg, and handles like the GT F1 car did in GT4.

Level 22, just done the nascar championship in expert, and in the driving missions only a couple of races left (some of them are tricky) and the others I cant do yet due to higher levels.
