Who is keen for a race on GT5 now/this afternoon/evening??? Go online and narrow the search down to "Trial Mountain" and look for the room called "SKYLINES SA".

Actually, make it this Sunday - 7PM - I'll have the room open shortly before that.

Whats everybody up to in GT5 (single player wise)?

I've gotten up to the expert events, knocked off around 4 of them, currently at level 17 - still have 1 professional event to knock off. Finished Amatuer and Beginner. Havent been playing it flat out/every day though. Up to the Sebastian Loeb rally in special events - quite the challenge.

So many cars to buy... but where does one get the coin to afford the 1million cr + cars...?!

Went online for the first time just after I got the net hooked up at my new house - found a drifters lounge free run at Tsukuba circuit, joined and cut a few laps. Felt 16 years old again... lol

I've sent an 'Add a friend' message to everyone in this thread who listed their PSN usernames. So far only rad32 & skyhi 33 have accepted (already had Vu). List your details peoples and we can organise some SAU-SA online races.

I'm only at L11 for A & L1 for B. Have just started playing it a bit more the last couple of nights. Have only bought 1 car so far - a Civic Type R - that I had to buy to begin the game, the rest are prizes. I missed a R32 GTR N1 that was available the first day I went to the 2nd hand shop (didn't have enough $ or A level to buy it). Only a R34 GTR M-Spec Nur has come up since and costs too much for now.

    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all. 
    • Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.
    • Ah, to clarify if the car has already been tuned and has been modified and you want to go from a oem cat to a 100 cell or decat or vice versa.Are you saying that the car doesn't need to be tuned after a cat change if it's already been tuned?
    • This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.
