good to see dedication.............as far as im concerned. unless i get an email directly from sony or polyphony telling me more details i'll ignore the other hype, where ever it is writen..ill wait, and play other games in the mean time. A

s for buying an Xbox........forza 3 is the ONLY reason i would even contemplate that as it is a dam good game. but 1 game aint gonna get me to buy an xbox. thats why i have a PC.

Bozodos is sounding like the door to door bible bashers trying to sell you Jesus although it clearly saiys athiest on the door.do you scan the site looking for pages that say PS3 just so you can tell us to buy an Xbox? (most peeps do own both)

If the full game resembles the prologue i have to say that the wait will not be worth it.

Having played prologue non stop since it came out, then play Forza 3, Polyphony has to come up with something spectacular.

And i fear that GT5 just wont cut the mustard. I mean 5 years of development?

In theory Prologue should look and and feel like GT2 compared to the new game with the amount of time spent on it.

Someone dropped the ball somewhere, and no amount of fine tuning of the game will pull them out of the shit, and they know it. They are just delaying the inevitable walk away from the series :huh:

I fear you may be right Dave :D

nah boiracer, just saying that there's a viable alternative for racing sim lovers already released.

Arrogant wanker devs who keep their games as vapourware long past announced release dates like this deserve to lose public support, like 3DRealms.

I'm starting to get excited bout this coming out. A few more months is fine, as long as they get the game spot on.

Downloaded GT Academy this morning. Must say i love the sound of the gearbox whine on the tuned car. Might need a new TV with 1080 to make the most of the game though.

For me personally. The number 1 concern I have is what they do with the Modification system in the game. After prologue Ive been worried they would swap the system over to that lame power up by 20%, weight down by 10% rubbish. This would really put me off the game bigtime. Im hoping they use a GT4 type system but much more comprehensive where you buy individual parts of different levels. Then they move the power band around suitably, even effects like clutch slip if your power exceeds your other mods just like reality would make for an awesome feature. 1 thing I'd keep from prologue is keeping a decent group of races using a points system (albeit with the much nicer mod system) to keep certain races as close as possible. (Yes sometimes you don't want to race a 600kw GTR against stocko Hybrids :P

Sadly my idea of a mod system with clutch slip, brake fade and overheating are probably just a dream. Maybe in 30 years time with Gran Turismo 7 or 8 at the rate they are going.

    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here. 
    • I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p
    • Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32
