Ok, Ok, before you all get angry, yes Juiced was a piece of crap.

I bought juiced 2 because I had too much spare time on my hands, and wanted a new game.

Yes, it's arcadey, the physics engine is based on dodgem cars and it makes NFS:Carbon look like a serious racing simulator, but I actually am enjoying this game.

The major reason is the fact that after playing for about an hour or so, I've already unlocked the R32 GTS-T, the R33 GTS25-t and the R34 GTR!

C'mon, any game that has these cars can't be all bad!

At the very least it lest me buy them all and look at the garage list wistfully wishing I had them all lined up in my real life garage.

The game itself is OK. It's basically car porn though. No storyline, no seriousness, just cars and quick racing shots.

I've been tempted to pick this up myself, but after becoming so used to the likes of GTR2 with a wheel, the ricey arcade games don't quite have the same appeal to me.

Good to hear you're still having some fun with it. Has a pc demo been released? If that showed promise then I might go pick up a copy.

juiced 1 on ps2 was pretty boring, especially the drifting section. the r34 gtr wasn't that great at handling.

the fact that you had to risk betting lots of money to get anywhere in the game was stupid, seeing as if you lost the race, you were back to square 1. and your co-drivers got really annoying by the end of it.

i much preferred NFS most wanted because you get to drive your cars around on the street between races, and run away from cops. And 'burnout takedown' was also another entertaining arcade game.

saw the ad for juiced 2 at EB, the graphics look heaps better, but i guess you'd have to get a decent plasma/LCD tv to make the most of it.

what changes did they make in juiced 2??

I got this game on monday. Halfway through it crashed and kept disconnecting me from xbox live. It doesnt even load anymore. I looked on the net and found its a common problem. Not many people are able to finish the game because of this problem.

Played this on 360 earlier in the week,was pretty dissapointing to start with.Circuit driving feels like th car is on rails,very arcade like.

But the drifting is probably the best ive played in any game,so this kept me interested.

Then i unlocked the 32 and 33 gtst which kept me in the game for a bit longer.

Also bought a S15 and modded it up.Best drift machine.From then on i was just drifting,picking drift tracks and doing some free runs.

I beat Beau Yates in his 86 which was cool though.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
