nah they have.... like a wheel where the X and square buttons are as your accelerator and brake so you can control your acceleration alot better

they look interesting, but i cant be bothered getting one from over in america

pretty sure someone in this thread bought one. personally i wouldn't waste the money, especially just because it has HKS on it. just get a white-out pen and write HKS on your controller.

It was me... the steering wheel thing and pedal buttons on the HKS controller does allow for better control over how much power/steering you're using. It probably wouldnt sell that well without the HKS name but since it does zomg its awesome.

so if it really is better than the standard controller, howcome you've only had it for like a week and your getting rid of it?

lol you say its to fund your car.. i dont think it'll go very far towards that.. what would it buy? a wheel alignment maybe?

Its going towards replacing the funds that I've spent buying NISMO Air Flow Meters. Shit will add up once I pawn off some more junk.

I hardly play GT5 anymore, I'm still only at like level 8... it got boring. I was playing with the HKS controller on Need For Speed Hot Pursuit for awhile but even then I still hardly touched that - just too busy with work and cbf doing much when I get home from work. I have a habit of buying stuff, using it for a short period of time or hardly use it at all then it either sits there and collects dust for ages and eventually gets eBay'd off or sometimes/lately I just chuck it on eBay once I've had my fun with it. Any other questions?

So i've finally managed to start capturing gameplay through the Avermedia AVerTV HD Capture card, must say the quality isnt bad. it says recording up to 1080p but the quality doesnt look like 1080p to me. but good quality none the less. here is a short .flv of one of the GT all stars races

What car are people using to get past the Gt all stars championship? originally i was using the R34 GTR, then tried the Nismo/Xanavi R35 JGTC/SUPER GT car. The R34 couldnt heep up no matter what i did, the R35 was a loosing battle aswell. so after a reccomendation from a few friends overseas to try the vette Z06 and race prep the thing. it worked :)

currently on A-spec level 21.5 but b-level isnt worth wasting my time on just yet :closedeyes: do many of you race it online yet?

My B spec driver is at level 14. from about level 13 on they can be trusted with a high powered RWD car and won't loop it at every sharp corner when they are in the red zone

I've got 2 at class 31, 1 at 32 and the top guy is 33. Now that I've reached the Tsukuba 9h enduro, I'm going to alternate putting one of the two newest guys (13 and 14 currently) in as part of the team for each race to improve them. Will see at 6pm tonight how far they progress in one swoop from their 1/4 share of 661,144 xp.

Liger, i'm still saving up to buy a car to use in that race. still got 1.5 mill to go before i can afford one.

Has anyone had a go at the second round of seasonal events? i've had a go at 2 and have been smashed both times, finishing about 20 seconds behind in 1 and 40 behind in the other. they must hve decided to make these ones much harder that the last lot which i was able to win all of

Sounds good to me. Only just picked up my second driver (don't get much time to play :() and made sure he was a hothead.

My coolheaded driver doesn't allow me to walk away from a single B-spec race. Even in the early races against 300ZX's etc he becomes so complacent in the 650+hp LFA that he will drop his half lap lead and let others overtake him.

Looking forward to just letting a driver drive on his own.

you need to raise them slowly. big cars and no talent leads to no learning with these guys. put him in a car thats only a little better than the competition. if that doesnt work, sack him and get a new driver :)

I did nothing but B-spec (from 0) for 2.5 weeks. Was made easier by having all my car collezione courtesy of lev.23 A-spec to race with. Could certainly be done quicker if you're around the PS3 all day to restart races in the pre-enduro levels.

Anywho, the answer to the question posed last night is: 4 hours 9 minutes 54 seconds, at an average speed of 240km/h

Now I'm going to have to run the Le Mans 24H 11 times to reach 40.

Just for shits'n'giggles, I think I'll see how much power I can knock off the current 1557hp by not changing the oil in it until I get to the end of B-spec

    • hello everyone, an RB26, or RB25 project in the medium long term. I don't know much about this engine or turbo engines in general, I'm here to understand and gain knowledge. I have specific objectives for a project
    • Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.
    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
