i went on the internets and there's different classifications for gta4, what's the difference? (game wise) there's m,ma,18+.

there's also Episodes from Liberty City is that like vice city stories?

Edited by tweety bird

so he's in LA, and he's not black or asian or anything

sold!!

:blink: uhh... yeah cause that would totally ruin the game if he was amirite? :huh:

I only have an xbox 360 & rarely have time to play more than once or twice a week nowadays

But I might actually buy a decent PC just so I can play that version. All the fan made modifications you just can't get with the console versions... The last time I had a decent PC for the time was GTA3 & I can remember all the different mods & entire extra islands etc.

I just really can't be farked keeping up with the latest CPU's/graphics cards & all that crap

Looks good. From what I've read it only covers two of the islands from San Andreas. Having said that the country areas look awesome and I'm expecting that there will be a tonne of crap to do in the countryside.

I agree though that they need to bring back helicopters, planes, and crazy missions. GTA IV was great but it wasn't anywhere near as fun or over-the-top as San Andreas.

does any one know if we are going to have the censorship issues with gta5 as we did gt4?

probably...just make sure you get your hands on the first release..before they remove it off shelves and re release it with very small trivial things removed just to keep a sensor's wife and kids safe.

on another GTA related note. i was in a hotel on the Gold coast this time last year, and was met on the elevator by a disgruntled man and his young son (no idea how old...mid primary school age), who preceded to tell me how he'd bought this game for his son (who had asked for it). and how disgusted he was about the hookers violence etc in it. to which i asked if it was called Grand Theft Auto.....which it was (obviously). I laughed a little at him and told him games arent just for kids these days...and that it was a bit stupid of him to not even look at the box......really doesnt take much......

I don't get how people STILL think video games are just for kids… it's not as if mortal kombat just came out yesterday.

Those people must live in a cave. or must've have a tv or the internetz.

I waited for a log time for the release of GTA IV, then they delayed the game for a further 8 months! I really cannot wait for this game, it's fantastic that it will be in San Andreas. The graphics look great and I can just imagine how much stuff there will be included! Mt Chilliad looks so awesome!!!

Anyone notice the dog in the trailer? The dude also mentioned how he wanted to be a dad. It's a long shot but if they're including animals they may have children, too. Might end up wih the initial Australian release being watered down. Maybe a UK version would be the way to go?

Australia really needs an R18+ rating for games. It's ridiculous that we don't, the people calling the shots are living in the dark ages.

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
