Dev series.

I'm a hack with the wheel, so wouldn't qualify

Ah yeah, my mate just finished 2nd in the series. I won that series 2 seasons ago. Would have liked to have another shot though, coz it's a lot harder outside the Dev haha

I will not give iRacing HDD space as it is IMHO Shite compared to other racing simulations available especially when you consider your required to buy most of your content.

The way the cars behave is about as believable a a $3 note as well

Just sayin

What other sims are you comparing this to? I haven't tried Iracing, but from all accounts it is reported as having pretty good physics.

Which cars are you talking about?

In the sims I drive, I prefer the older cars that move around more. Maybe that's just because a sliding car has always felt more natural to me from gravel rallying. I'm currently running a historX series in RFactor. The 1970 Camaro was a lot of fun around flowing tracks (like Amaroo, LAkeside, Warwick Farm etc) although it was easy to overheat the tyres with too much sliding.

The Phase 3 Falcon is also lots of fun around Bathurst. When I get into a modern sports / supercar the grip is too foreign to me, and I find the driving style is unrealistic (IMO) to be competitive. I rarely drive anything with lots of grip (won't even touch an open wheel formula car - *yawn*)

iRacing physics do suck balls compared to the newer gen sims

but its still plenty of fun....Its about the racing..not tyre wear.

This ^^

I actually prefer Assetto corsa physics but they need to get their online play sorted. It's still quite a way off compared to where iracing is.

Ah arcade racing then. Glad I didn't waste my money on it.

Bit more to physics than tyre wear.

Showing it's age shit man iRacing was never IN the race, rFactor with the newer mods is still way better than iRacing, it IS that simple.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • 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.
