i actually prefer the B spec to some of the rally events. just wish my drivers would realise that if they are in a lambo LP640 and the car in front is a little hatch back and they are faster than it, that by using the big round thing on the dash in front of them they can go around the car in front.

i hear that!!

the b-spec drivers really do borderline on mental retardation when it comes to overtaking slow cars. and what pisses me off is that your opponents never have the same issues! in the "like the wind" race at indianapolis i use the 787B and it dominates by a long shot, but theres always the gillet vertigo race car that you lap 2 or 3 times before the finish, the 787B could almost drive circles around it, but instead the b-spec driver decides to hang off his tail for half a lap then wait until the next big straight, often letting your opponents catch right up to you. and they dont use the slipstream off the car in front well at all. they'll be in the slip stream, pull out to overtake, brake, then continue to try accelerate past, wtf is that!! they should never take their foot off the gas!

and i cant think of one good car that came out in 1987.. so looks like my "bday present" is a write off..

YOU BASTARD! where the hell do you order one of those?? i got told by EB they aint coming to nz but im keen to order from overseas if i have to

wait.. i heard a horrible rumour they weren't wireless, which now i remember that was why i stopped looking for one.

so is it wireless or not?? thats a deal breaker for me if it isnt

Edited by jonboy

Its not wireless but the cord is quite long. Doesnt bother me as I sit pretty much next to the PS3 anyway or sometimes sit on the bed. I prefer the cord actually - saves charging - I got a wired keyboard and mouse.

So far so good, feels different to using the triggers its weird I got my fingers ready to press the trigger to accel/brake but I dont use it! Accel/brake feels great being able to "heel and toe" using the thumb lol steering response is so much better than the joystick on the DS3.

I think I need to get me hands on GRID again to try out the drifting on that with this controller.

EDIT: its USB

basically, chumps.

its basic psychological marketing.

target market = young boyracers/gamers/import car enthusiasts. all these types know HKS, and know HKS = awesome.

therefore slap the HKS name on a product = instant mass appeal to said market = mass sales.

you comprehend yes?

and has anyone won the final nascar race at daytona in a-spec? i get pit maneuvered and spun around every time lol. on the odd occasion i do get out in front, i lose too much speed on the corners because i cant keep the car steady with the standard controller and just get owned anyway lol

    • Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.
    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
    • Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?
