LOL that little Nissan that you start out with is awesome!!! I'm pumping out 300+ kw on it :thumbsup: Stroke it out to 2.1Litres, throw in some cams, get it breathing, do a turbo conversion on it (I've only gone with the sports turbo thus far), throw in a roll cage, buddy club P1's wrapped in some decent compound, and most importantly AWD DRIVETRAIN CONVERSION! Once I discovered the Drivetrain conversion that was it! Makes for an awesome car! Still understeers a bit but nowhere near as bad as FWD! You can still get it sideways though with the AWD despite its tendency to understeer, in fact I got the drifter achievement in it :P But yes, the thing friggin LAUNCHES!! I've got the level 1 brakes at the moment, needs more stopping power though... LSD was a must, just went with a 1.5 way. But yes, with it stroked out, blown, bigger cams, upgraded pistons.. that little Nissan is soooo damn quick! Oh and transmission! Didn't go as far as a racing transmission, just the sports one and it smashes through the gears quick enough.

Anyhow, I think 4 hours is enough Forza 3 for the night haha Definitely worth buying!! Night all :(

Oh and by launches, I mean it does 0-97km/hr in little of 3 seconds :P It has been gutted though... BUT there's still a decent amount of power left to unlock in it..just need to do more races to get cash :thumbsup:

lol, I farked that little piece of shit off quick smart! Bought myself an oldschool Fairlady Z, dropped in an RB26, AWD, lightened it, did brakes, gear box, suspension, 255s all around etc, still have most of the power to unlock.

That thing RIPS (lol) past supras, skylines etc, raped the b class turbo races. Needs a little bit more power to keep an AWD slide going through a corner, at the moment, I'm having to smash 2nd, then down it to 1st in the last bit of the corner.

smashed 370Zs etc too in the fairlady tournament!

That car was my baby in the last game and I'm SO GLAD they included it! :P

I also love how every car is automatically unlocked at the start of the race, you just need the money!

also, that rewind feature is awesome, even though I keep forgetting about it, I only use it if some bugger brakes infront of me and I 'orange' my engine :thumbsup:

The only thing I don't like is the artificial slow down on the tracks with the speed bumps instead of sand traps. How am I supposed to be all awesome and flip my car and shit if they go and do that?

I lul'd at myself being in the top 1% for F and E class, what does that even mean?

I rarely buy cars in Forza because generally I buy one then win the same one on the next race/level so I have used the Fiesta, 500, Brera and Focus RS so far.

How sweet is the Collectors Ed. though? I've picked up a few special addition type games over time but F3 I think, simple but impressive not just a map and some plastic crap.

How big is the memory stick that came with it? I just got a free 8Gb one yesterday so it was a bit unnecesary, and I don't think I'll be using the keyring :thumbsup:

Nice though, and the box is top notch n shit.

I HAD to buy that car (it was only like 5000cr) cause I know how awesome it can be! I was sick of all the little square boxes I was winning.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.

      Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
