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.

in the way of old cars that was about it for the nissan line and maybe the AE86 or someother 50bhp beasts....

the ultimate would be tuning houses as rewards veilside,HKS,A'pexi and Garrett to name a few, some of thier parts there for you to test on your make of car.....

    • 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.
