^ lucky I've got a heap of HDD space, then

pre-ordered a standard copy from JB Hi-Fi last night, and the woman at the check out mentioned they were currently embargoed- which means they're in the country ready to go. probably under military guard!

my receipt confirms release date is 25/11/10 :)

The australian version actually gets made here, so they hve been here for a little while now.

Stealth Vehicle Pack ($300 version):

* Audi R10 TDI Stealth Model

* Honda NSX GT500 Stealth Model

* Mazda 787B Stealth Model

* McLaren F1 Stealth Model

* Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Stealth Model

* Nissan GT-R GT500 Stealth Model

plus the chrome pack

Chrome Line Pack (both $130 and $300 versions):

* Shelby Cobra 427

* Lamborghini Murci lago LP 640

* Audi R8 5.2 FSI Quattro

* Mercedes-Benz 300SL Coupe

* BMW M3 Coupe

EDIT: damn, beat me to it. and yes, the $300 version gets both lots of cars.

the $130 version also gets a 200 page booklet.

DAS KAMU, the EBgames site now shows this banner for the signature edition, lol

so if i buy the standard edition will i ever be able to drive the lp640 and the cobra????? or will i have to buy the more expansive one.......

also wats with the stealth models???

1 more question, anyone know if you can customize the cars, like besides the wheels and performance parts,(body kits and spoilers) im not refferring to neons and hydrolics and shit like that.....

from what ive read you can upgrade all 1000 cars performance-wise (dunno about that shwimwargon thing though, or whatever it is haha), except for every one of the 800 "standard" cars, you cannot change the wheels at all and have to live with the factory wheels and colour, bullshit i know. :rofl:

im just going by what one of the latest reviewers has said, whos been playing the full version over the last few days..

im far from whinging haha, aslong as i can change wheels on my 32/33/34 GTR im all good.

i'm pretty sure the stealth and chrome line packs are purely DLC, so i'm sure they will be available to purchase seperately, for a small fee (since EB games is doing the stealth pack with the standard edition of the game). also those cars will still be in the game, i'm just guessing that with the addition car packs you simply get those cars straight away and you don't have to earn/buy them, but i really don't know. it could simply be that they aren't in the game and the car pack simply adds them into the game but you don't get them for free.

and as someone else replied to you, according to a reviewer with the actual game, standard cars wheels cannot be changed. no speculating involved here. i think maybe you should go and change your tampon.

and yes, there will be 2 player split screen, just with limited views available (seems to just be bumper and above car views, and can't save replays)

Does anyone know how much GT5 is going to be on release date? Dick Smith has a online preorder for $78 but I would rather just go and buy it if I can. I really dont fancy paying $99 at Jb or $118 at EB, so if anyone knows that would be greatly appreciated.

    • To clarify, I meant nismo bushes, not control arms (don't even think that's a thing for my car). So the suspension specialist said, if I buy those nismo bushes which are perfectly centered it will cause my car to veer in one direction. Whereas he said the current offset bushes that I have were put in on purpose to fix that issue. This will be my third wheel alignment if I put these bushes in lol. My chassis is straight, all my rails are clean.
    • OK, well, in that case, the suspension specialist is either a moron, or you aren't understanding what he was trying to tell you. Nismo arms are not really different than stock arms. Both are fixed geometry. I don't know if the Nismo ones are a little shorter than the stockers (or perhaps even a little longer) or the same length, but....if you swap from stock to Nismo, whatever happens to one side will happen to the other side. It will not cause it to steer left or right. That is unless you have adjustable bushes in your stockers, and they happen to be adjusted to dial out some bent chassis shenanigans. But, if that were the case, you'd just put adjustables in the Nismo arms anyway, because Nismo arms are essentially just expensive stock arms. And doing a wheel alignment is just a weekly thing in my world. I have had the suspension apart so many times this year that I've lost count and just about worn out a torque wrench. I'm out in the shed right now cutting up some alloy section and making bases for my new stringline setup. Got to make new swivel plates next, then I'm good to do toe properly, as well as camber and bump steer.
    • Yeah, nah. Not a thing. The gasket between the top of the plenum and the runners is far more likely to blow out when it gets old, and not really at ~14 psi. These things have been run to double that for 30 years without that being a common thing.
    • I plan to pull the intake manifold off and check the gaskets, i read that the block to manifold gasket can blow over 14psi and when i picked up the car it was set to 1.2bar on the controller. Send the injectors out for cleaning. Ill also pull the cam covers off and do an inspection, check some valve lash. Someone also said that the timing belt can rub or vibrate against the belt cover and make that sound. Definitely need to get an AFR gauge on it, if it was lean idling im sure it wont be happy
