oh and i managed to roll a car for the first time (my N1 gtr) on saturday on the trial mountain track. twice in the 1 lap, LOL. first time was on the very first corner (trying to be a smart arse and weaving between cars off the start line rather than going around the outside). the second time was at the last corner of the track. you come down the hill and have the chicane before the start line. i cut the right hand bend a little bit too much and flipped it. still ended up winning the race easily though, LOL.

my B-spec drivers are still retarded... as you said, no taking the inside line, etc..

my best AI guy is now level 25, so he doesn't brake stupidly early for corners anymore and takes pretty neat lines- But he's still prone to overtaking on the long side a fair bit

I guess by the time he gets to around lev 30, he'll be better than me :'|

erm..... i do that sometimes...... lol

oh and i saw another mildy amusing name. T. Mckinney. i just pretended that it was Todd Mckinney, that silly douche from dancing with the stars, and ran him off the road and into a wall at the first corner.

Isn't the Zonda a famed premium super detail car?

its funny how forza fanboys such as this guy seem to be more interested in trying to pick apart GT5 than actually playing their precious forza.

whatever makes you feel a little better about the forza series being owned several times over in sales bro..

If I cared about sales I'd buy Black Ops. GT5 took 12 days to get to 5.5M, Black Ops sold 7 Million copies....on day 1. I still hate it.

I don't play Forza 3 that much anymore. I played it a fair bit when it was new though, over a year ago.

and from what i see of that pic, what it says is "GT5 have missed out the tiniest little detail on the zonda, but the actual graphics are a buttload better"

the initials are randomly put with a bunch of surnames from a list...some of the surnames are typos on purpose I would think, like Weber I saw.

still haven't tried online yet, think I want to get all the gold licences :)

my bro and i have come to the relisation that once you hit endurance races you will have too race them over and over and over to reach the 24h races..

we are both around the same stage on level 23 and finished every a spec race we have unlocked as well as every specail event besides some of the AMG challenegs, so you will need to re do races a lot.

online races are so good when there are fair restrictions and if only there were exp points for online races then this problem would be fixed..

i dont really mind doing races over and over but by looking at the exp points needed to reach those higher levels you will need to re do some of those endurance races like 50 times

yea it does get fkn repetitive doing the same races all the time. does anyone know if you get xp for online races? that would at least help a little bit

I'm wondering whether there may be updates down the track with extra events in it. Wouldn't suprise me if there were

yea thats the beauty of the next gen consoles with online access the creators can just change the game however they like by releasing patches/expansions via dlc and essentially everyone has access to it.

rather than back in ps2 days when you bought a new game and that was that

I know it probably wont happen, but I will be stoked if they decide to bring Spa Francorchamps as a track in a download eventually

Highly doubt it will happen but you never know. Should have been in the game from the beginning, I love the flow of the track

to be honest, i can see gt5 seeing the ps3 through until the end. they really have no need to create a whole new game from scratch when they can just keep adding things to this one. i mean they cant really take the graphics any further the framerate suffers in parts as it is.

and i've just gone a whole day without playing gt5 for the first time since release.. it feels wierd

currently doing my first B-spec Mx-5 4hr event with 4 Bobs- my 2 good guys, and two aggro n00bs I'm training. gunna win this by over 10+ laps to 2nd place regardless. gotta do it 2 more times to get to L26.

and in the mean time, I've figured out to get from level 30 to level 32 (which unlocks the Nür 4h) will take over 1.8 million xp- which means I'll have to run the Suzuka 1000 kay event at least 6 times (at ~6 hours a pop)

lucky my PS3's only a few months old! no one could ever complain GT5 is 'easy to finish'...

    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
