Given the power of the graphics engine in the PS3, I wouldn't be surprised if the actual gameplay graphics were that good. Can't wait till one of my friends gets one of these with GT *drools*

I've been playing it quite a bit lately on PS3 in Tokyo, and yest GT HD is awesome. You really need a good TV to make the most of it. I have a PS3 now back in Sydney and on my lame TV things dont look quite as good as they did on the HD plasmas I was playing with in Japan.

The graphics of GT HD are astounding. I'm just sorry I couldn't get a copy to bring back with me. I do have Ridge Racer 7 and Resistance (hooked on this one atm) and they are both great. PS3 is definately worth the wait. I do have some pics I took of actual screen shots of GT HD that I took whilst playing it. I will dig them out and post them up later on.

edit: yes sadly no car damage. but it's still awesome.

yes language is changeable, and games are region free. movies are not.

I'm probably going to sell mine shortly, simply due to no more time to play with busy work time coming up. and I'll be back in japan in 6 weeks time so could possibly try for another one then.

Looks awesome!! Lets hope they put more then 6 cars into a race though, becomes rather boring otherwise at times (like when doing the 24hour races in GT4)

yep GTHD has been canned. They are now going to release the demo versoin (like what I played in Tokyo) which will have 10 cars and 1 track (2 layouts) and 2 modes: time attack, and drift (!). It's going to be free for those of us lucky enough to have a japanese PS3. You will be able to download it free from sony store on christmas eve. how cool is that.

they will now be focussing on GT5 instead. Can't wait for that!

you might be waiting a while! well into 2008 at the earliest. I'm pretty disappointed to be honest.. if they'd have offered it late next year I may well have been tempted to lash out some cash on the ps3. Instead forza2 on 360 will keep me occupied well into then.

I bought a PS1, and largely a PS2 just to play Gran turismo :)

      AC Compressor

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Lots of this, and in older cars, AC is generally controlled by the AC knobs and programming, and the ECU reacts to the load. Modern cars, the ECU controls kicking the AC on/off at the AC systems request so it can be prepared for the engagement/disengagement.

      Sadly, it won't happen. The AC controls in our cars are essentially on-off. Whereas the AC in new stuff is more a case of variable displacement compressors giving infinitely variable output.

      AC Compressor

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I don't think anyone did. But it still made me consider. For me personally it wasn't clear whether the AC experience in my car was shit because it is an old system, or because it wasn't maintained. Looks like it may have just been the latter. I see some more modern setup being sold as an upgrade and I wonder whether it would make it drive like AC in a modern car. Where you don't really hear it or notice it. But maybe that's asking for too much as well.   Haha, stick it in a Nissan Cube and you end up with a driveable fridge I'm not doubting your experience. Just thought it was interesting to hear the AC technician's thoughts on it.

      AC Compressor

      Guess I should be hunting down one of these big ol ford units then for max flow ....  I've had fresh gas in mine and it was never as cold as it is now . The compressor could have been trash though, like I said I am one example with a bunch of unknowns.

      AC Compressor

      I don't know if anyone was seriously suggesting a retrofit of an Echo compressor in place of a more-or-less working original comp. You'd have to change the hoses at the bare minimum to do so, and that will definitely add significant cost. I had to get my hoses modded when I did the engine transplant and chose to use the Neo's AC over the even older R32 comp. That was startlingly more expensive than expected for what looks like a simple welding job, and a massive pain in the arse when it turned to have a pinhole leak in the weld too. The Frenchie's kit is for people who have next to nothing of the original system or have more than that but some of it is a bit shit and better off thrown away than salvaged. If you've got 90% of the system, you just patch it up. Mine is currently degassed because it apparently has a big leak somewhere. If I find it is the compressor, I will be looking to take my spare comp to a shop to assess and/or recondition, rather than contemplating a retrofit to anything off-brand.
