dam was going to start this last night. beat me too it.

Online is really good, if you can get a good pit. most of online now is just a demolition derby, so i only race online with people i know these days.
oh, did i mention the people already at level 30 with the fastest cars? doesnt make online all that fun.


i'm happy to race with any of you guys, so give us a yell when you want to have a run and i'll jump on ID: -=GA=- CLK-GTR

and for those who havent played it before, heres a video from this mornings antics

I hardly ever buy games straight up, hire them first and see if i'll play it more than the few days i've got it hired.

Future exceptions will be new GTA and possible that end of days when i get some spare cash.

Hmmm was thinking about buying this, but after hearing this and not having a wheel setup at the moment, I think I'll give it a miss :(

Most people I know are actually faster on a controller......Or so I have discovered. things like Catching your car when someone tries a PIT maneuver is alot easier on controller.

It is a very frustrating game, but very fast and often very fun.

its really fun and close racing when your in a pit full of white/green racers..... its frustrating when your in a pit full of yellow/organge racers :yes:

also, soundtrack was released today aswell

    • I see... Any idea how much fab work is required? I note the Hygear megathread but its like 900 pages
    • I should try the experiment you're talking about, the throttle switch is still there carried over from the R32 and it's still all wired up but after I did the whole intake manifold refurb and had to recalibrate the TPS I managed to somehow get the idle switch reporting activation at 0.22V, then when I adjusted it to 0.45V for idle it decided the engine was permanently no longer idling which caused some very weird behavior, closed loop idle was disabled so it would basically be at the whims of the cold start valve and whatever the base timing table was at. Then just unplugging/replugging the TPS with the ECU live caused it to relearn the idle TPS position and decide 0.45V was idle. Presumably there's nothing in the TPS that allows for the throttle switch to "recalibrate" like that, not easily at least.
    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
