"original" parts from tuning houses are good, esp the original suspension upgrades, as they are very stiff. and don't require alot of setup for drift.... ohh yeah, and turn of ASM & TC. Also if you want a fast dori racer then the "original" or stage 5 turbo is good as it has a bucket load of low RPM pulling power.

TCS and ASM should be switched off at all times anyway

whats so bad about playing with it on?

it's not that it's bad, but the cars feel more responsive and are considerably quicker with ASM & TC off, has a much more realistic feel to it.

it's also heaps more fun being able pitch your car sideways into a corner... :devil1:

Save your replay then play it in replay theatre, press select while its playing to take pics. Or just do a photo drive.

Thanks VIPERGTSR01 I'll give it a go. Should produce some interesting pictures considering my demented driving style ;)

I hate it with a passion, I drive much faster with it off.

If come on to the corner with abit of weight shift to counter some understeer the assists go off throttle and cause me to slow down drastically. The only time ive used assists on purpose is with my Nissan R92CP on Hong Kong track because of the crazy lag and then wheel spin behaviour of the Nissan at Hong Kongs low speed corners, even then I only put TCS on 2 and the rest is still off.

my friend just bought hks d1 s15.  

car is next to impossible to drift. lag lag lag boost peak. thing either spins or drives straight into a wall. spins wheels in 4th gear etc.

any one know how to get it right?

Ive spent a bit of time working on it. You have to put good tyres on it and play around with the gear ratios. Ie make them bigger. I cant drift with full power on you tap the throttle quickly should be able to hold drift without spinning out. How do you start your entry i cant feint drift very well with it only handbrake entry. But how good does it look :rofl: .

The best car to drift on GT4 is the Mazda Falken RX-7 D1GP, don't touch any settings to it just put some NOS for that extra kick when need it in the middle of a drift and maybe upgrade the turbo, the rest just comes naturally with this car. give it a go when you get the hang of it with this car you dont want to drive anything else.

Same thing happened to me at the start....Bought the BLITz and HKS D1 cars and couldn't drift them at all!

First thing to do obviously is turn all the driving aids off...

Then change the tyres to either normal "ecomomy" or normal "comfort"depending on what power the car is making ... Doing this really helps alot making sliding more predictable and easier, though you may have to change ur style a bit.

Also playing with the suspension can help if you get it right..... Try starting with upping the stabilizers to 5 each, camber at least 2.5 and 1.5 front/rear respectively, then work on the spring rates from there.

I found the HKS s15 impossible to drift at first, but with a power up (phat turbo) it was allright, but still easier in my road s15, but when i was actually racing it for fun one day, I decided to put on traction control (just to level 1) so I wouldn't just sit there and spin wheels and it drifted every corner perfectly. Give it a go, just remember, big turbo, no assistance except for TC on level 1. Works a charm ;)

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞

      I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
