Gt4 Tskuba(spelling) Times

[R32_GODZILLA]

I have found the M-Spec Nur to be the best of the bunch around the track - give it a try. Mine has clocked 1621km's. Love it!

change your oil if you havn't that should bump up the figure a little if it's old

[mad082]

yeah changed the oil a few times. i usually do it as soon as i buy a seconda hand car, or if the car is new i do a few laps of a track, then change it for the easy power upgrade.

[R32_GODZILLA]

For what you've got, that is a damn quick time! i'll have to try better my own now incase you come back with another fast figure

[hrd-hr30]

874, 852 - my R34 only has 822bhp! and I bought it brand new, ran it for 100km and changed the oil. also had to change it again recently at 470-ish km because it dropped down to 780odd bhp. I'll have to give one of those M-Spec Nur's a try.

I have improved my time, but in a different car - Tommykiara ZZII 52.223. still no challenge to you 2 running 51's. Its a bit dissapointing really - a car that weighs just 1000kg and has 970ish bhp should be way faster than the R34 GTR at nearly 1300kg and 822bhp... I've got 1000bhp in it now after doing 100km last night I gave it the first oil change, and will have another go sometime over the weekend and try some more fine tuning of the setup. You guys might be stupidly fast with that car!

I'm not going to resort to traction aids to get into the 51's. I've always run with 0 traction aids and I'm not about to start now. Actually I lie, that Toyota 7 race car is undriveable without the TCS set to 1 - what a machine!

are you guys using NOS? something else I've never used except on a few old yankee muscle cars in a strange GT4 drag racing phase I went through

[mad082]

i'm not using gas. might have to have a go at the ZZII tonight (shows how much of a life i have - playing the sony on a friday night).

my big problem is that i usually cross the finish line with 2 wheels on the grass.

[hrd-hr30]

I've got a practice session in the nets with the cricket team. not much of a friday night either! at least there'll be a couple of beers afterwards... good luck with the ZZII

[R32_GODZILLA]

Good luck with the ZZII guys.

Clocked a new fast lap last night at Tsukuba:

51.343

This was with the traction control set to 1 and NO gas - Man is it a handfull! Bit too difficult with traction set to 0, i think i was in the low 52's with it off.

No shot tonight though, going out

[mad082]

i forgot what sort of car it was that i was going to try, so i just used the gtr again. ran a 51.3xx, then a 51.081 then a 51.063. so close to the 50's i could cry.

then i was pissed off when i put slicks on and only went 2 seconds faster. i kept braking way too early, and going slow round corners.

tsukuba super lap IRL is for (JDM) tuned road cars on sports tyres.

I can't remember a twin engined Suzuki Escudo (Vitara 4WD) Pikes Peak (Dirt Trial) car being sold for road use either... just to make it clear, because my earlier post about that car seems to have been mis-interpreted. That is not a tuned road car. Pikes Peak specials are some of the most highly developed and specialised race cars around. If the game calls it a race car, rally car, or dirt trial car, its fairly obvious it's not a normal road car, isn't it?

Actually technically the rules of Superlap battle are there are two main classes (plus the RWD, AWD, FWD etc) one being street meaning they still run factory A\C(if factory supplies it), Cat etc. The other class is open class and pretty much everything goes, one thing is they must run radial tyres. Its also not restricted to Japanese cars are since MCR retired their R34 after splitting the block they took to Porsche and tried it. Needless to say their porsche wasn;t as successful as their R34 GTR

Sorry i was just reading old threads. Also is there anyway to verify some of these times as their getting blindly quick!!! I sure as hell can't match 'em (maybe I'm just a shithouse driver )

[mad082]

well if anyone wants to go for a drive i will more than happily sit in front of the sony for a while and do some quick laps.

[ookami]

is there any physical way to record some of these lap replays and put onto a pc? anyone know?

[scandyflick]

hmmm, new quickest lap...

not exactly a street car though,

49.765 with Nissan GTR Concept LM Race Car.

[mad082]

race car, not street car so it doesn't count. and what tyres were you on?

[hrd-hr30]

there's a device called 'Action Replay' you can get for about $50 IIRC. Pretty much mandatory in online racing to verify your times.

[scandyflick]

soft sports.

[R32_GODZILLA]

Or you can just get your digital camera and record the replay off your tv

I done it with my previous lap record on racing/soft tyres. Visible enough to see the time.

Tommykiara ZZII 52.223. still no challenge to you 2 running 51's. Its a bit dissapointing really - a car that weighs just 1000kg and has 970ish bhp

just fired up the playstation again to have another lap and realised I'd stuffed up here - the ZZII is 1000kg and 870bhp. still should be way faster than it is IMO.

NSX Prototype LM Road Car is 1230kg and has 1005bhp!!! I've done a 52.338 in it, but its very difficult to keep on the road. I reckon I get about 1 in 10 laps without an off somewhere! taily under brakes and just a hard car to drive - on this track anyway.

GTR Concept (Tokyo Show) '01 is another fast car 1294kg and 815bhp (I think). 52.573

that's my top 3 cars at the moment.

[mad082]

still haven't gotten around to using the ZZII yet. keep forgetting which car it is, then i remember about half an hour later.

[Wink]

Arg I hate these "modified" challenges

I turn my PS2 on and get all g'd up to do up a car to high heaven and try this challenge but after I look at my GT4 bank account (11mil) the tightarse in me decides I can't be stuffed spending a quarter of a million bucks doing up a car.

On that note, what is everyone's % completed for GT4?

I'm up to 95.2%

Jesus what have you got left to do?

I dont think i have ever got that far in any of the GT series
