Has anyone done any of the seasonal 4 races that came out today? They are super easy like round 3. the highspeed ring one in the jtcc cars was a piece of piss. was in the lead by the first corner of lap 4 (8 lap race), won by ages. was doing sub 1 minute laps wit a best of 58.112. i was using the woodone gtr like what is posted above, tuned up to 701hp

Ooooo new ones already? sweet

yes the nascar race is easy, but i found if i drove gently i'd eventually just hit the gas a bit too hard while at lower than rediculous revs and i'd spin on the way out of a corner...so i just flogged it around :) seemed to work well, and more practice around the ring. and more fun IMO, im in nooo hurry to finish the game. man i love that track :)

new 1tb per month cable plan, now for some online haha!

1tb? fkn hell im sick of hearing about all these awesome internet plans everyone has that we cant get in nz. our isp's give us a pitiful amount of data per month depending on the plan (the biggest are like 40gb) and so help you god if you go over your cap the isp bends you over their knee and spanks your ass raw while their best mate shafts you with excess data charges.

My plan recently went from 50g per month to 1tb as well without even being told by Optus.

On topic, I'm stuck in an A-Spec rutt at level 30 I seriously don't wanna do the Suzuka 1000. B-Spec on the other hand is motoring along nicely at level 34.

the suzuka 1,000 is only a set number of laps correct? just grab the fastest car possible and it'll cut the time down. its the tsukuba 9Hr endurance that i am trying to avoid. no matter what car, its still 9 hours pinch.gif

^ yes, 172 laps

meanwhile...

after 8 days of running the PS around the clock to finish the enduros, B-spec is done. it gets a well earned rest tonight

So you got to level 40? How many times did you have to run Le Mans 24 hours to get from 35-40?

I did a few other shorter B-spec enduros when I didn't want the PS3 tied up for a whole day, but i think it was 9

if you go from 34 to 35 with no/nearly no extra xp, you'd need to run Le Mans 11 times to hit 40

finished Nurburgring a while ago and got another MP4 as a gift car (which i knew about), and got a Formula GT from the mystery ticket. doh!- i shouldn't have bothered buying the used one for 4.8m cr! =\

Yeah- I read about the possibility of doing that the other week.

Would be pretty sweet if you didn't need to physically be at the console to start the races. That'd make it a lot easier to get to lev 35 if you could remote in from work.

Connected my PS3 to the internet today (wireless) & in order to play GT5 online I needed to download the latest version 1.05... It seems to download fine, it starts installing & once it gets to 14% it displays 80029564 error. This has happened to me at least 4 times now, I've done some research on this and have come up with a list of possibilities none of which sound concrete. Has anyone had this problem and corrected it?

i had something similar issue with mine always failing during updates. i ended up jumping on the computer, going into the router settings and having the ps3 excluded from the firewall. i can't remember how to do it (i found out how on some forum i found on google)

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
