I bought a PS3 just for this game, but that was a few years ago :yes:

I'm glad this game only came up on my radar recently (despite being a diehard GT fan). Painful to see people posting way back in 2008 as if the game was just months away.

Question.. I haven't played GT5 Prologue but a friend (a GT veteran) says that playing in 'professional' mode with the controller is very hard. Apparently it's like there is little or no self-centering so it's difficult to control.

Anyone experienced this? Maybe it's designed for use with a wheel, not a controller.

I've played GT5P at my cousin's house with his G25 and got really used to it on professional physics (I don't have a PS3 so i've only played a few times). I was there again last week and we couldn't be bothered setting up the G25 so we just used the regular controller. I adjusted to it very quickly even with professional physics on and could make adjustments to my line etc etc (of course with a G25 you could make more slight adjustments) whenever i wanted. I even played online and had some very interesting races where your skill was needed through the corners and not just drafting off the person infront of you on the straight to overtake. In other words, i found the controller to be fine on professional physics but i was using a R35 and not a high powered rwd (also used an integra too).

But cars can be flipped! Just ask Mark Webber lol! Twice in an LM Mercedes CLK-GTR that thought it was a part of the German Luftwaffe and once in his trusty Red Bull RB6 that gave him wings! :P

The latest trailers do seem to show cars flipping...

But my feeling is that its a race simulator, not a crash simulator. It is gonna be fun seeing the result of bumping panels during a race but I don't think full on crash damage, loss of panels etc really adds much to the game IMO.

You shouldn't be busting up these lovely cars anyway :P

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
