The Camera is the PS3 Eye (standard camera), and it has been implemented, it tracks your head so if you move it it will copy the movements on screen, I don't know how useful it will be but it is there, and you can look around the pillar if you need to.

Some of the reviews say that it is a little laggy, but I guess it is wait and see what happens on release day.

i think i'll be optimistic about this feature then. i think kazunori yamauchi seems to do a fantastic job of deciding which features are worthwhile implementing and which are not. so anything that he has approved of should work pretty good.

Is Track IR compatible with the PS3?

as far as my research shows, its only useable with windows at this point in time. but it looks like they are interested in implementing it with games consoles.. watch this space i guess

yea that would be a pain in the ass to have to move your head around. with my current setup, if i moved my head 10 degrees in any direction i wouldnt be looking at the tv anymore lol

you'd have to move your head while keeping your eyes looking at the tv

i'm guessing it is slightly limited (probably an inital run but no repeated production runs), but not like 'only a few thousand in the world' type of limited.

that said, if i start hearing that places are selling out and they are selling in ebay for more than what they retail for, and i happen to go past a shop with one in-store, i will buy it and stick it straight on ebay. one of the joys of living in a smaller town. may may get smaller quantities of stuff, but they also sell out slower.

There are a some on ebay that have been there for a few weeks selling for about $400. Just search gran turismo and filter by highest price.

that isn't really anything usefull though as the game hasn't been released yet. it won't be until all the shops start selling out that the prices will start to go up. at the moment all you are paying for is a pre-order.

Ah yeah true, the prices should go up later on.

GT5 has been delayed which would probably include Aus in there too. Hopefully its just until the end of november/early december but we don't know at the moment. Maybe now I can finish my uni exams before it comes out hmmmmm

i saw yesterday that russia had had their release date postponed, and now i turn up to work and it's everywhere. what a bunch of useless fuckwits.

my money is that it now won't be released until next year some time and it's probably because some other game was going to be coming out and they got scared, and instead of either manning up and facing the competition or delaying the other title, they delay their most anticipated game and more than likely lose sales from it.

Black Ops is coming out this year. One of the articles on IGN or 1up was suggesting that this might be the reason for delaying GT5, so that it doesn't clash with the release of Black Ops.

nah it will be finished, it will just be that there is some other game coming out and sony is just a bunch of pussies

or they have more pre-orders than what they expected and instead of having them sell out they are just delaying it until they have greater stock numbers

Early November Black ops comes out as well as need for speed hot pursuit around the same time. I dont know if you would call the second one competition but. anyways......

still wtf, this thread started in JUNE last year and the op was like, "its ready and almost here..............."

NOPE...... a year and bit later on and they announce even more delays..........WTF

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
