anyone come across a nismo xanavi R34 GTC? i want it

has anyone seen one in the used section? i dont think its a prize car

i had it in my used car lot yesterday. can't remember how much it was, but it was under 1 million. think it was around $800,000.

I had another go at the level 15 rally last night.first time i was in an evo 10 and was getting smashed. bought myself a corolla rally car for $250,000 and hd no problems winning. in the snow race i won by just under 2 mins. i was over taking the 2 cars in front and in 1 stage i was right behind the 1st car. tat stage i won by 32 seconds.

Ok... Got Gold in the Kombi challenge... Top gear track unlocked.

Got bronze in the Elise top gear challenge finally... Fk I hate that car with those tyres! But I'll persist n crack a few narnies along the way n eventually I'll get it.

oh u were being serious about that?? are you meant to get something in gt5 on ur bday?

i think birthday details are essential items when you sign up i.e it wont let you register without it.

Haha... Yea it's for real but a 1983 Honda civic ain't that awesome in the end...

hahaha at least we know not to get excited for nothin now

[PM-R33]

Does any one else wish they didn't bother with the B-Spec events and just made the A-Spec events bigger or just added more events to the game?

I mean, I buy the game to play it, not to have half the game played for me. While I enjoying watching the videos of the car driving, I feel that's what the "Playback" is for, not to have half the game devoted to it...

Dam this game is addictive. spent just about all day on this today.

i've also found out how to record gameplay footage, you need to use the composite ( red,yellow,white) cables, and plug it into a DVD recorder. record what you want. then just finalize the disc, shove it in the PC and record it again using fraps. then edit in your video editing software and output it in the file type you want.

The quality is deffinatly not the best ( dam composite cables). and its a bit of screwing around aswell. but it works and is watchable.

few random pics... love the countach

[boiracer]

rally isnt good, feels crap, and yes snow was realllly easy, and my old celica with 339hp just did the other two rallies......although it was a pain. won the subi rally car, tryed gain and pwned face

[boiracer]

nice pics!!! missed that model countach in the used car lot...but only just

[Spurdo]

the only thing that pisses me off about replay when you go into photo mode you cant slow down playback and go slow forward, slow backward and pin point the frame you want. it would be mint if you could then you could really get the exact shot you wanted. heres a couple of mine

[barraspalding]

Agreed... I don't think I'll ever be able to get a exhaust flame shot.

[boiracer]

true dat.....on this note. should we start a thread for cool GT5 shots??

on another note. i was playing online the other evening and i couldnt find any aussie servers, so i opened it up to find all. and to my excitement i found a Japanese server (couldnt read anything) around Tsukuba with 6 RX7's and RX8's formation drifting. looked SWEEEEET, so i pulled up on the side of the road in my kombi and just watched em for a while...dam they were good

you mean to say you hadn't got golds on the sebastian loeb challenge and won his car?? made for easy work on the gt rally

no i haven't got golds on the seb loeb rally challenge. i got all bronze and really CBF'd trying them again. the rally events in general in GT5 haven't really sparked my interest so i am simply doing them to pass them to get them out of the way. if i happen to get gold first time (which i have so far in the GT rally events) then good, if i only get bronze or silver then meh, at least i passed. i actually prefer the B spec to some of the rally events. just wish my drivers would realise that if they are in a lambo LP640 and the car in front is a little hatch back and they are faster than it, that by using the big round thing on the dash in front of them they can go around the car in front.

Got gold on the first one... from memory i was bronze on the 2nd one but only had 2 or 3 cracks at it so far. Will devote some time this coming weekend and grind away.
