has anyone played it? if your a bit of a fan of the old Demolition derby/ Demolition derby 2 games, this will intrest you.

its a branch off of the normal Dirt series, you've got your offroad races, your gymkhana, and my personal favorite, demolition derby and knock out's.

the game does lack some certain realism, once you've been knocked out, you just go back into the ring again. the same with demolition derby. once you've been taken out, you re-spawn. a slight dissapointment. but still a bit of fun to have when you are bored

finished the game last night. was worth the money spent.

knock-out and the demo derby are the best part of the game. especially when you get up in the list of cars, the holbrook growler is probably one of the best cars for the knock-outs. but it struggles a bit when you get into the "legend" demo derbies.

if you havent unlocked that car yet, then get the Jupiter del rio and get all the upgrades for it.

as for the races, go for the Jupiter san marino. not only does it sound good, its got the most power out of all of the cars. the Janzen modified ( looks similar to a AMCA/ Dirt modified) has better handling, but you've got to constantly use nitro to keep up with anything. so go for the san marino

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
