I've played both games lot (I own both consoles)

Forza is better in the majority of areas, especially regarding physics.

GT5 looks better but unfortunately that's about it.. sucks too, I had such high hopes for it as I love the way they do races in gran turismo series.

ive got gt5:prologue. forza 2 shits all over it. drifting in forza 2 is so much better.

Fair enough, but are you only saying that because its easier to drift on Forza 2 and its very hard on GT5?? I've been watching vids on youtube and to me it looks like its pretty easy to control the car drifting on Forza... where as on GT5 especially using the controller only its VERY VERY hard to drift a whole bend netheralone link 2 corners...

I've just recievd my G25 steering wheel so cant wait to do some proper sliding on GT5 tonight... :blink:

But yeah the slow car physics may be better on Forza 2, but to me it seems the whip lash in high speed drifting is much more realistic in GT5.

^^well ive been messing around with the drifting in gt5. Noticed that i can drift better in trial mode than

in drift mode :blink: which is weird. Cars shouldn't change the way they handle through different modes in a game, this isn't realistic.

That makes it more like nfs (shit). After a while the drifting in gt5 becomes quite easy (depending on what car). In all honesty by

owning both games, gt5 has higher quality level/car design but the car physics is what makes forza 2 a better game.

And by no means am i trying to say gt5 is crap, its not. Let's hope the final version kicks forza so i get a better racing game to live on :down:

Different driving physics from trial to drift mode?? There is nothing different at all dude..?

Only difference is in trial mode you complete laps and have a clock ticking to get the best times where as in drift mode u recieve points for ur slides.. there is no difference in car handling/physics what so ever.

The handling is only different when u change the car physics mode from 'standard' to 'professional'.

not sure dude used the rx-8 in both modes, seems to drift better in trial mode.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
