Gran Turismo 4

Hey guys.

After cracking the PS2 back out and playing Gran Turismo again. Interested to see what peoples best times are. Ive been working on mostly time attacking Tsukuba.

I just cracked into a 41.9 with the formula gran turismo WITHOUT altering power or weight. And im interested to see how that compares to others. Also particulary interested in times people can get in other cars (with no restrictions, i.e qualify tyres and Nitrous are ok).

Mm, I only play Nurburgring :banana:. Currently playing with a 95 R33 GTR Vspec with power at -20% (weight not touched) (road tires). Best time so far of 8:20..

Set me a challenge around nurburgring? (road cars and no fwd please.. :))

Sounds like a great idea...Pick a circuit, pick a car thats totally stock and post up lap times.Tsukuba isnt really my cup of tea. I much prefer the Nurburgring or de la sarthe II

the high speed tracks are my fave

Lol. 2 of my worst tracks besides the city circuits (just dont like them).

I'll do a bit of work on the Nurburgring with a stock 95 R33 GTR Vspec to see what i can come up with.

(using street soft tyres). Road tyres irritate me. It gives me the feeling of taking a car to the track with the spare tyre and stereo still in the car. (In otherwords. Why would you?? :P )

Still interested what people are getting on Tsukuba. I love that track. Surely there are other fans out there.

Haven't really run the Nurburgring properly but I got addicted to the Tokyo Route: 246 (Normal) track.

Car was a 2002 Honda NSX-R with stage 2 weight reduction, R2/R2 tyres, no nos and horsepower rating of 484bhp (maxed). I managed a best of 1:29.925 after 10 or so attempts. If anyone has beat it then let me know, cause i will pull out the old ps2 and try to better it :D

gotta say man, that is a f**king good time. the best i could manage with that setup was about 1:33 (but i only did about 6 laps). i had to go to stage 3 weight reduction and qualifying tyres to get into the 1:29's (which it only took me 3 laps to do, LOL)

Lol. yeah it took me awhile to get it down to that time. When I said 10 attempts, I meant in 10 different sittings (each sitting could've entailed around 10 laps each try), so it actually took me like a few weeks. Reason why I didn't go nos, stage 3 weight reduction and qualifying tyres was that a 1:29 was very hard to do with that setup so it was a pretty decent challenge, hence why I kept at it until I got it under 1:30. I've still got the replay for that time saved onto the ps2 memory card if you want to check it out. I'm not sure how to get it from the memory card and upload it on to here though. Any ideas?

Ugh, worst car I've used on the game period. So impossible to judge and super twitchy with loads of understeer. 1:32.346 was best I could manage. Tokyo sucks too :P

Nurburgring FTW

You'll have to tweak the suspension and downforce settings etc until they're perfect for your driving style if you want a really good time on that track. Took me a while to get all the settings tuned for high-speed grip and stability as well before I could get anywhere near that time.

now you tell me, LOL

i didn't use nos at all. i will have another go over the weekend sometime. i didn't really play with suspension setups at all.

will have to buy another car since i have done stage 3 weight reduction now. or i will just try and beat it by a decent amount to make up for it, LOL

i used to do the tokyo track all the time in the xr8 v8 supercar a few years back. that was on gt4 prologue. i worked at toyworld and we had it on a demo machine so every afternoon after we had packed up i would do a few laps while the cashup was done. used to be able to do sub 1:30 in it..... i think, LOL. that was about 6 years ago now.

    • Hi there, after a quick google search I found this topic as I am also relocating the battery to the boot of my 1998 GTT. I was just wondering how you got on with installing the re-routing and specifically the installing of the harness protectors? How do they attach? Are they just a simple "click-in" affair, or do they attach with bolts? Does the GTT have all the necessary fixing holes for them, for example, where they locate on the chassis? Any help you can provide would greatly appreciated.
    • Thanks mate, yeah I've heard that alot and i am definitely regretting using the 25 Loom now, i have gone through and traced all the plugs from the 20loom and re wired them into the 25 loom, I have currently got Crank, Fuel and accessory's working, just need to finalise the loom and run the wire for the Ignition (Spark) and it should be running, will update if i have any luck.
    • Cheers lad, when I head over there I'll give it a shot.
    • Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.
    • Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
