Gt4 Drift

[Leigh]

which car to use? where to buy it?

thanks whats the best drift car n where do i buy it for gt4???

[Freddy Kruger]

i havent played it in ages... the one car i did try and set up for drift was the white r34 in the tuners section. Youd see it there if you have a look anyhoo. its fairly tricky imo to hold a drift without spinnin.

Yeah, he's talking about the white Blitz R34 4 door, that & the HKS silvia are the D1 cars. They are easy to drift straight away, better after some personal tuning.

But in this game you can't "really" drift, once you hit opposite lock the car snaps back the other way & you lose it. It is a racing game, but everyone loves to drift.

Apart from that, take any decent rwd car onto Tsukuba wet, it's a good starting point & a good challenge to hold it, as it dosen't snap back on you. I have some good drift pictures I've taken, but nothing to transer them to my pc.

lol i can link some corners

don't turn too much on 1st corner keep the line in the centre if u go too wide you slide on the grass which can be good or bad or if you go too close to the apex you ll spin out.

lowering the gear and holding handbrake helps...I could even drift the 89 GTR lol shame i cant upload pictures but.

for suspension set-ups go to www.gamefaqs.com

how do you turn onthe rain so the tracks wet

[R324DR]

drifting is possible you just have to have your set up right. cars that i have found the best are sileighty, 4 door blitz r34, and supra. having traction control and stability control on setting 1, sticky tyres, and using nos to loose rear traction are things that make the car better to drift. using the handbrake is difficult as it is hard to keep the revs up.

i found a heap of settings to make the cars drift well

how do i make it rain tho n make the trackls wet?

[R324DR]

go to special conditions section where all the ralley races are and enter any of the Tsukuba races.

[Leigh]

whys that? cant u just turn the rain on on any track? whats the tsukuba races get u

GT3 is far beta for drifting, try the r32 gtst an the rx7 series 4 or 5 i think, they are the best cars to drift in, u can drift in GT4 i do all the time it just takes alot of practise an again use the rx7 or 32 even the s2000 i can get to drift. i'll put sum pics up if u can tell me how to gem em off my ps2.

ossie_21, it's not easy to drift in GT4 but it is possible.....

check out some of the GT4 videos posted here. Some of these guys are insane.

I can manage to link a few corners but not really more than 3 or 4 before I come unstuck. It doesn’t really matter what car you choose as long as it's a rear wheeler and the power and suspension is adjusted appropriately.

My preferred choice of weapon is usually the series 6 Bathurst RX7, Gallant VR-4 or my BMW M5. The Beemer is a big lard so it's easy to loose it around a corner as there is just a little to much weight to throw around.

HR32_GTS-T, you need a USB flash card to get the pics, simply plug it into the PS2 copy the photos (in the "home" section of GT4 mode, and then plug into PC and copy them over.... they are saved in JPEG format.

here is a shot of my Beemer...

Hey guys,

My friend and I bought an 05 Ford Mustang and when u upgrade its performance parts with the works in has enough power to wheelspin past 200km/h so power sliding is easy, controlling it is another thing!

[Archie@]

here's a "little" video i came across (81megs), but it shows exactly how drifting can be done. This is by far the most impressive video i've seen. This was not done by me unfortunatly.... but it's really worth the download and if your like me... it will inspire you to try drifting in game again....

I use the Genki S15. Just tweaked it here and there abit until i got it setup how i liked it.

in gt3 you cant get full lock steering unless you are rolling at like walking pace so how do peopl drift effectively? in gt4 its probably the same otherwise you would have to have a feather touch on the joystick. unless youve got the driving force pro steering wheel

I found an odd and different car for hanging the tail. Its one of the alpine-renaults in the french section. Its the later model of the 2.

If you can get that thing to go straight you are doing really well.

It just doesnt have the power to back it up.

Give it a go anyway, its kinda funn.y
