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.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
