Incase you haven't seen/ heard there is finally an Initial D game that can be played on western machines without a jap console

trailer:

game: http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-bp-49-en-70-2lx5.html (jap) (online play)

http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-bp-49-en-70-2lx6.html (chinese) (no online play, english manual)

Anyway, my question is about the online play. Does anyone know if the online play works in Australia because i've seen a few videos of people in america being able to play online even though its not supposed to work outside of Japan. Not too keen on paying $15 extra for the online game when it doesn't even work.

Also, if you have the game, is it worth the money

how it works is that you WILL be able to play online but only with the japanese or chinese depending on what disk you buy, there is no region lock out on games for the ps3 but there is region segregation for online. i looked into this when trying to get MGS4 for a decent price through play asia.....

i might buy this game, although the constant japanese blabbering might get a little annoying

***thats stupid how you cant get the english manual with the jap version smh

I guess you havent read my post in the "Currently Playing"...

Japanese online play DEFINITELY works in Australia - my copy arrived yesterday and played it all all on my console and later in the day at my mate's house on his console. Neither me or my mates are Japanese but it didnt take long for us to navigate the menu with ease and 1/3 of the stuff is in english anyways.

The Japanese online version DOES NOT come with an English manual but you can get it online here: http://ps3mods.blogspot.com/2008/07/initia...ge-english.html

Your not missing out on anything important anyways if you dont get the English manual....

3/10? I didnt find it that bad! Only thing that annoyed me was every car being able to keep up with my modified R34 GTR :domokun: I find the controller better than the steering wheel at the arcades - its too sensitive at the arcade.

Though, I'm selling my copy of Initial D Extreme Stage - anyone wants it? Its the JDM version with the online play. As new condition only selling it to fund real mods - $70 pick up or plus $5 posted via registered.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
