That is the main thing I suppose, the PS3 is definetely at it's limit with this game. Did any one play it without installing the 8GB onto the hard drive? My god did it take forever to do anything!

Bring on the PS4 and GT6 I say!

Personally i would prefer shit graphics but a game that I'm so addicted too that i don't go to sleep, instead of this artsy piece of crap we got. I mean a photo section? FARK OFF, its a game.

This game to me seems like it was purely made to stroke some clowns ego at polyphony cause he thought he could produce the prettiest cars in a game.

this was also in gt4

Enjoying the game for what it is so far :)

Though i find playing with the arrows on the gamepad takes me 10x longer to do say the nascar challenges then what my brother can do with his steering wheel :whistling:

His setup the steering and throttle control makes it so much easier.. oh wells!

anyone find an r33 gtst?

there is no r33 gtst in gran turismo 5.

the japs dont drive whales, they eat them.

just got the international A license with golds all the way.. with a standard controller.. super licence tomorrow maybe

Well I gave in and purchased the game today. It's a decent game for $77. Having played it more, I can say that the driving physics are definitely much better than previous games. Not sure how long i'll stay interested, but it will be good for casual gaming after a long day at work.

As for the people complaining about the lack of smoke in the mirrors or the white lines, honestly, who cares? well you obviously, but why? It would just be a bigger drain on resources and would have to come at the expense of something else. it seems as though people want everything but aren't willing to accept that maybe the ps3 isn't cappable of doing it.

since when is mentioning it the same as complaining about it... I don't really care, I just thought it was strange... we're discussing the game, its good points, bad points and in between... with this much hype and the long wait involved people are going to be critical... I like the game, it seems to get better the more you play, things get harder and more realistic

I bought a Delta Integrale last night to go rallying... which is great fun but the snow sections graphics were pretty poor... I guess your not able to see much when its snowing anyway

hey what do you guys think about making sort of a SAU gt5 group, given that theres heaps of us here.. we could all post our user name up and we can share drivers, cars etc?

or have i missed the boat and this already exists?

thoughts??

Why would you want an R33 gts-t when you can buy the series 3 R33 GTR :ph34r: or better R32 GTR.

I'm finding the game fairly easy tbh, haven't lost a race yet.

ummmmmmmm.... because its rear wheel drive??? And its a car lots of people drive that would love to play with on the game??

Cant believe the GTST isn't in there. What a joke.

I've been doing the AMG special events lately and man the SLS in the intermediate challenge goes good, been managing to get all golds so far but its a bit of a challenge on the full lap run when there is other cars going around at walking pace. :ph34r:

yeah. and in the info at the start it says that slower cars are supposed to drive on the right hand side of the track when faster cars are coming past. i had to overtake a heap that were driving on the left, even on straights.

BTW- The LFA sounds freaking awesome. Especially good when it gets past 8 grand. Just like in Yewtoob vids

Time for another trip to JB for a decent speaker set-up methinks

O'rly, will have to get me the LFA so i can try it out, my R34 GTR sounds pretty decent too with most mods although it sounds like it misses at low revs when i changed the exhaust to the titanium one??? weird.

Try the Grand Touring Garage 1970 Mustang thing.

Costs a bomb but worth every cent. If you get a decent sound system your entire suburb will know everytime you drive it :banana:

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
