Ok, Official GT5 Academy Time Trial page, please use the following format to keep it clean (don't necessarily have to use the html formatting but it makes it easier to read), don't bother listing your rank as it will change everytime someone somewhere in the world beats your time.

Minimal chitchat if possible :(

i'll add to this but i don't see much point if we can't discuss it in the thread... I've only played it for a couple of hours and the last time i played was 2 years ago GT4 on PS2....thats my excuse but i'll know there's still room for improvement :D

View: behind and above?

Transmission: best time done with AT (but my times are very close with MT anyway)

Traction Control: 7

Driving Line: On

your right, feel free to discuss

that said, anything lower than traction control 7 and i keep sliding out from the corners, need a wheel and pedals so i can gain some semblence of throttle control

yup i know what you mean. The x button is pretty useless. I'm about to order a G27 so hopefully it will help.....but it might take me a while to get used to it as i've never used a wheel :)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh I'm shit. I spent an hour or so on this and this was the best i could get. I might hit it up again later in the week.

Mode: Tuned

Controller Type: Steering Wheel

View: In car

Transmission: MT

Traction Control: 7

Driving Line: On

Time: 1.42.203

what sort of times are the rest of the world getting?

If you have downloaded the game/demo whatever you want to call it, you can check up on the rankings in game.

Last i saw, the top time for Tuned was 1.35.xx

I'll take a stab and guess that this is for the F1 car on suzuka?

This is just for GT5 Academy, there is only one track, (indianapolis street something or other) and you have a choice of 2 races, one uses a tuned 370z and the other using a stock 370z

Mode: Tuned

Controller Type: G25

View: Front of Car

Transmission: MT

Traction Control: 4

Driving Line: On

Time: 1.39.5xx

Haven't touched it since the 26/12 but forgot to update, down to low 1:38's. Puts me 300 and something in the rankings.

Will give it another shot when back home around the 6th/7th

Mode: Normal

Controller Type: Steering Wheel

View: In car

Transmission: MT (gated shifter)

Traction Control: 7

Driving Line: Off

Time: 1:52.757

Haven't tried the tuned car yet, wanted to give it a good go in the normal first.

Got that time with only 45 mins of playing. Think I'm ranked somewhere in the 700's with that time.

I don't think this realy counts as I'm Canadian. However; I thought i would contribute!

    • Give it 40psi and send it to the moon
    • I suspect 550s are on the large side for happy operation with a stock/Nistune RB20 ECU. The Hitachi ECU doesn't love short pulse width operation, and the RB20 doesn't need much fuel at idle. Big injectors can be unpleasant. This could be contributing.
    • Yeah, I still don't know why the idle speed control can't catch the falling RPMs. In the Consult logs I see the AAC duty cycle rising, but suddenly it goes lean and the engine stalls. Anyways, the relevance here is the DW 550cc injectors are probably the same. So if OP has similar issues I would be tempted to finger those injectors as problematic for whatever reason vs the ECU failing for some reason.
    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
