If you like video games as much as I do, you'll no doubt be anticipating this game. In my opinion, Gran Turismo 3 is the best driving game ever, and this can only be better.

My main gripe with GT3 is the lack of older cars. This has been fixed in GT4, and members of this forum will be pleased to know that it includes the DR30(and possibly the K/PCG10 GT-R as well).

I mainly started this thread so I could post these pictures, discuss.

Open 24hrs....and no covercharge anytime :P

I've played GT3...never seen it myself but quite a number of people have told me the KPGC10 makes an appearance in GT3 as a silver car with black watanabes (Hmmmm...now who has one of those? :idea: :( ). The previous owner was suprised by younger kids recognising the car when on display at Autosalon? in Melbourne, and talking about the car from GT3. Come to think of it I have seen a blue and white race version (like famous No.15) in Gran Turismo...that long ago it may have been GT2. Anyone help out here?

But yeah! I'm with you, can't wait to have a bash at the 4th version. I'm actually working on a dedicated rally seat, PS2, analogue wheel and monitor to enhance the experience.

On that point (HIJACK ALERT!) any recommendations for wheel and pedal sets for use with the PS2?

Cheers,

Jim.

You will not be disapointed with the new logitech wheel that was designed for GT4. I have it and have played GT4 Prologue and the feeling is so "right" the extra turning radius it provides lets you feel like driving instead of playing a game. It is a bit steep though($300) but the force feedback and feel is unbelievable!

Gday all, im new to this forum, but when i saw the GT series was the topic of conversation i thought id pipe up.

Gt4 will be out in december around christmas if were really lucky! It was sposed to be released in early november, but the deadlines have slipped in perfectig the game [it could easily slip that december release date, but hey as long as its good]. Also, as announced late last month, gt4 will not be shipping with online play, a HUGE dissapointment as the potential of racing against people from around the world IN the gran turismo world is phenomenal. The reason was due to the constraints of international networking, but personally i think this is hogwash - later down the track an online version may be released. However, the game will problably still be one of the greatest racing games ever and i am thoroughly looking forward to it!

And, just to re-enforce lachlans point, i completled gt3 100% and there was definetley no kpgc10/110 skyline or any other classic skyline derivative, however, it would be great to see all of the first three generations of GTR's in this new version, possibly even the s54 gtb!

I can't wait to try the Nurburgring!!!!

One thing I thought they'd fix was the wheels... they all *still* look very 2D. Have a look at the way they did the wheels on Battle Gear 3 and you'll know what I mean.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
