I use the Logitech Driving Force GT wheel. I was $138 when GT5 came out, I bought it from Dick Smith. I couldn't justify the G27's cost, to my wallet & my wife :laugh:

This ^^

And i love it.

One of my mates bought a g27, its super nice, but the forceGT does what i need :P

Hopefully the new update fixes the random freeze ups I've been having. Keep getting stuck on the grey "GT" loading screen.

How big is the update Tom? The ps3's wireless is so slow. Takes forever to download big updates.

yeah it took a while, prob 30 mins to downoad and them some time to install

i had a few freezes before

thanks for the car btw, i did that race and got 2,000,000 straight up and went from level 12 a-spec to 18 :D

so the wait to play was definitely worth it

my biggest mistake was i ignored bspec until i got up to about professional in aspec. i had to go back and buy alot of cars i sold just to compete in those races.

I've made the same mistake... Currently running at level7 in B-spec, and around level 15 in A-spec.

Most of my time playing until this week was with friends over playing Arcade mode in split screen.

I had a massive freeze-up then the PS3 glitched out while I was online with Cam (iamhe) last night. Had to force the PS3 to shut down, then when it rebooted it had to do a restore before it would work again.

Also, the battery in my BT headphones were dead, so now that they're charged I'll have to see if they actually work.

add me if you want psn:nickverms

I dont have any friends :(

sooo...add me

Jeez, how hard is it to charge a battery before you play? :P

Nice to see your GT350 out there though

(btw, I usually do a 10min practice prior to the race so everyone can pick their cars, set 'em up and get familiar with the track - was thinking about setting up a 30 lap race at De Sarthe with varying conditions next time, could make things interesting... Maybe Sunday evening? Oh, and karts in the rain are certainly interesting and frustratingly funny)

One bloody whinging POM!!

but you forgot the "Shit... FOOK, FOOK.... Aaah FOOK!!" when he spun and hit the wall.

Repeatedly.

Regardless of vehicle/track.

And we all loved it, which is why I made Rob a "friend" :rofl2:

Anyone running a wheel? I have been looking at the Logitech G27...

I've got a G25 and it's a nice bit of kit, looking at ways to firm up the H shifter and brake pedal though. There is a REALLY flash brake pedal available for the G25/27 with a hydraulic piston but it's $250 :(

Yeah, definitely need to get about 10 on at the same time.

Competition? I believe you only "won" 2 races last night mate

Hoping that Chris can get his internet connection sorted for the next go-around :)

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
