i cant say i liked any of the nfs games too much. i have pro street, was ok, but didnt really juice my lemon. Same as all the previous NFS games.

i would like the new one if:

it had the realism of gt5

had an unbelievable amount of mods both mechanically and aesthetically

courses included the wangan, mt fuji mountain roads, mt akina from initial D, tsukuba circuit, bathurst and the piece de resistance - winton motor raceway

Removed ALL american influence and replace design team with the guys from tokyo xtreme racer or wangan midnight

and youve got yourself the best game in the world

all the nerds on nfs forums are calling it an epic fail.

but from what ive seen them ask for. their asking for the impossible!

What are they asking for? Realistic physics? :P

Might check it out on a later date...

  • 3 weeks later...

Just realised this thread.

Here is what I said in the "Currently Playing" Thread.

Finished it on PS2 in about a week, but could have finished it quicker.

Graphics a terrible, the default controller layout is annoying cuz Im use to Carbons settings.

Tuning wise its is a lot better than Pro Street as you do not have to spend as much time mucking around with settings.

Had about the same amount of cars than Carbon but still Pro Street had the most.

The game was quite easy to win.

What I hate about Pro Street and Undercover is that, there is no FREE CUSTOMISE like in the previous NFS. No Highway Battles in Quick Race which is sucks.

The cut scenes are OK and Maggie Q was the only thing worth watching.

So far I have completed Career Mode of 87% (just a few lose end to tie up) with a Nissan Skyline R34 GTR V-Spec, Nissan 180SX, 911 Turbo GT2, Lamborghini Galardo and Ford Mustang cop cars in my garage.

They pretty much took parts from Carbon and Pro Street put it together and changed a few race events around.

Overall its a Good game.

BTW Is the R35 GTR avaliable to unlock in the PS2 version? Maybe I gota race the Challenge Series...

ive got the R34 in millenium jade, on bronze TE37's.. the rest is stock. sooo sexy

R35 in gunmetal grey, stock rims. sexy. does 390km/h

the theres the GT2

and some other cars i dont remember

Played it the other day, wasn' that impressed. Exactly the same as NFS Most Wanted with a bit of an upgrade on little things here and there. I think they should just stop making them for a while until they make a decent "new" game that is miles ahead of the old ones. Kind of like GT5 is to GT4, huge difference.

However the Veyron is cool :down:

what cars you got bakes?

all my cars dont have any nitrous

i flew through the game.

my R35 maxs out at 389 km/h :banana:

i dont like how every corner theres a fkn cop

i cant even do a top speed run on my R34

Need for speed underground = realistic driving engine imo, when you accelerate, u accelerate, when u brake u brake, when you take your foot off the gas you here compressor surge ( in some cars), only faults in that game was when you fully mod sumthin like a Supra or a Skyline the growl of the 2jz/ rb26 instantly turns into that annoying 4cylinder sound. So I just never do up the engine part to get around this.

Need for speed most wanted = alright game but the modifications were limited compared to NFSU2 , when u accelearte u dont accelerate, u do a pycho ass burnout thus forcing u to go stop to go in 2nd ( my own experience)

Need for speed carbon = even less modification potential due to teh fact if u done have an aftermarket rear bumper u cant have an aftermarked exhaust WTF? , and I absoloutely hate Autoscult, every kit looks the same, drivign engine is the same as in Most wanted im pretty sure same retarded acceleration

Need for speed pro street= I played for 1 day and epic quit, I HATED IT!

Need for speed undercover = driving engine seems to be better then the normal most wanted onwards style, but the game is still hindered by the modification restrictions. most performance mods and visual mods are restrictive and not in depth however cruising around the highway system I must say is pretty fun and the fact cops never seem to go a shit about me speeding past is good. I did find 1 retard thing tho, when I 1st got the game I did a bit of career and bought the G35 skyline which im pretty sure (99.9999%) is a Non turbo 3.5l VQ35DE V6, however for sum reason it is turbocharged and has a BoV lol.

To make the ultimate driving game i reckon it should have a map the size of GTA San andreas to drive around, the driving engine of Underground 2 and extremely indepth performance modification such as boost pressure, turbo sizing, specific internals specs, gearboxes, exhaust composition, wastegate options (screamer pips in a game would rule), BoV options (im sick of HKS lol) , etc etc

thats my rant

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
