I couldn't 'feel' when the rear end of the mustang or viper would or wouldn''t let loose, usually forza is predictable in its handling. It could be a demo specific physics to ensure anyone could have fun................. maybe.

The vibration isn't anywhere near strong enough, thats why you can't feel the rear end come loose.

Like I said before, there is a huge uproar about it on forzamotorsport.net so I see it being patched by the time the game comes out.

GF bought me the special edition for my bday, may have to take another members advice after she bought me tickets to an AFL final and 'wife her'.

dont do it.

as soon as the ring is on the finger it all stops.

Picked it up, yet to play it though. Did anyone not get a book inside their cover or did I just get ripped

Where did you get it from? I know JB are stupid and allow people to return games with codes that cannot be reused.

Yer it was from jb although the case was sealed. This happened to a friend of mine except there was nothing in the case at all, he got it exchanged luckily.

Mine wasn't the special edition or anything so I don't know if that matters

Never bought a game that didn't come with the little booklet... tho if games started coming out without them it wouldn't be surprising really... just have a link to a pdf version on the net and all modern phones can read them easily.

wont be getting it for at least a few weeks. really busy with other stuff.

i dont understand my thinking though, im spending a ridiculous amount of time watching videos of the game on youtube.

Question: are there body kits like on FM? i was watching a review that had a quick 2 second clip of the upgrading screen where it only had the performance upgrade options (engine/suspension/driveline/conversion) but didn't see any aero section.

been pumping it out all night.

pro's

engine/suspension/aero mods seem to be the same

can import vinyls from fm4

money is ridculously easy to make and it seems discounts are easy to get aswell (i already have over 50% off all upgrades)

supra sounds hot as f**k on boost.

roundabout

sliding around city streets is fun

cons

there are no r32/r33/s13/s14's only 370z's, s15's r34's and other nissans.

skyline still sounds shit imo

slighty dissapointed in the map for not having any tight mountain/canyon runs, but it is america so i suppose it reflects roads over there.

only one roundabout (that i could find/see on the map)

no tuning unless i havent unlocked it yet but i doubt it

not as many cars as fm4 but it was expected

could just be me but nightime doesnt seem to last long and i also feel traffic isnt dynamic either (eg less cars at nice wouldve been nice to have)

nowhere to really max a car in a straight line

seems to be a few more cons than pros but the fact is i basically played for almost 5 hours straight so it has to be enjoyable enough to pull that off

edit: also dont think you can do drivetrain conversions anymore, well atleast on the 34 you cant

Edited by drunkn snail

So spent all of yesterday playing, just about to start pink wristband races.

Engine conversions are still in.

Drivetrain conversions are out, (who actually wants an AWD R34?).

Matte paint, cool.

I didn't get a booklet in mine (sealed LCE).

Barn finds are cool.

Seem's I need to buy a Supra...

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
