What sort of money do you win in the special conditions?

I just win 7,500 on the driving mission using the slipstream event with Honda Odessey's. I have no idea how to win the slipstream event with the R34 GTR. Closest i have finished was 1.1 seconds behind.

Well I bought my first console today. Picked up the PS2+GT4 bundle + Memory card for $350 and i've played GT4 for about 2hrs. It was abit expensive but i've never even played a PS2 let alone any of the Gran Turismo series and after reading all the hype I just couldn't hold back :rofl:

I've got the first license thingo and finished 1 round of the races. Only have 3 cars (R32 GTS-t is the 'used car' that I bought). It seems to do alright, handling isn't fantastic and I also need about another 75hp :cheers:

i am still think to buy the game or not.do you guys think its worth to buy?i already got GT3

Definately worth the buy!! The car physics have changed alot since GT3 giving a more natural feeling, also the mother of all tracks is in the game to test every drivers skills. Only flaw......there is still no R33 Gts-t :D

Hey timmy, how the hell did you manage to complete the nurburgring licence, i sat there playing for a couple of hours getting to like 8 minutes then hads were to slippery or id just over take the pace car and then fail. :)( i was getting so frustrated my girlfriend threatend to turn my Ps2 of coz i was cussen so much.

Where in adelaide are ya lol, lett me coppy your licencessssss :):P:P

I have 6.4 percent completion,

If anyone wants easy money, go to the japanese events, do the first event,s there worth $7500 a race plus $35,000 if you win the compertition, and they give you some concept car and its worth like $318,000 and you can do it over and over again and keep selling it.

Woohoooo to GT4

correct me if i'm wrong but isn't the Blitz ER34 D1 a Gt-t? i know it's not a stock gt-t but it made it in to the game unlike it's R33 conterparts.

I have also found a way of winning $260,000 very easily. Go to special conditions win the first 2 rally races this will give you an extremely quick Cadilac which I have modded to produce 974kw + NOS and does the ¼ in 10.2. You don’t have to mod it if you don’t want to. With this new addition to your garage use it to win the next 2 rally races. You will then receive a Toyota Race Spec rally 4WD which is worth $263,000. Keep doing those last 2 races over and over then sell them all.

i find it funny how both the R32 Gsts-t and the R32 Gts25 (NA) got in the game yet no R33 or R34 (Not including blitz D1 and GTR's)

Rx-7 is much better handler than the GTR in my opinion, lot less understeer, even after susp mods ect.

I have also found a way of winning $260,000 very easily. Go to special conditions win the first 2 rally races this will give you an extremely quick Cadilac which I have modded to produce 974kw + NOS and does the ¼ in 10.2. You don’t have to mod it if you don’t want to. With this new addition to your garage use it to win the next 2 rally races. You will then receive a Toyota Race Spec rally 4WD which is worth $263,000. Keep doing those last 2 races over and over then sell them all.

or you can get over 400k in one series by doing the Japanese Championship and winning the Nissan Fairlady Z Concept LM Race Car '02 which is worth over 300k alone... plus the 90k you get from completing all the races which are all easy when your driving a nicely modified GTR.

i was lucky enough to start with 110k and A and B licences

EDIT:: just realised what you mean... yeah definately the easiest way. 2 races... get the rally car... sell it... then reset and do it again.

first car i owned was an R34 GTR Vspec which when modified sounded like a puss filled rotor which i was very displeased about... but anyway... spent 80k on it and nothing can touch it... runs 9sec passes and if you set it up properly you wont have any issues.

im only 12% through the game so far and lovin every minute of it... a few bugs that can be annoying tho... like the power rating discrepincies... my D1 350z says 770kw in the garage and yet it says about 570kw in the car info. My Blitz D1 car says 460 something in the garage yet only has 354kw according to the car information... so i cant get into certain races with it cause of the low power it reads.

but yeah... apart from that... awesome.

best track i found for some good dori so far is the Autumn Mini ring.

The R32 Gtst understeers majorly! I let my B-spec driver have a go and every time i asked him to push hard he would just spin or hit walls.

I bought an R34 GTR N1 00' model and modified it with everything and this understeers worse then the r32! I thought GTR's were supposed to stick like $hit to a blanket. 9.6% complete

    • Right.  I'll try my best at a concise "bring you up to speed" on stuff that may be missing here - obviously open to questions or further input from others as relevant. Here's a datalog from a responsive turbo setup with electronic boost control being used a bit, to keep it simple I've marked 3 points of interest.  All of these charts are on the same time scale on the X-axis, so you can reference what engine rpm is doing in the top graph, boost and EMAP (exhaust backpressure) in the second graph, and turbo rpm in the bottom graph. A) The turbo gets it's power from exhaust gas, and pumping air takes work.  As a result you can't just spin a turbo with a fixed amount of exhaust energy and expect it to keep spooling - the bigger the turbo (ie, the more air it can push) the more exhaust energy you need to drive it.   The most obvious ways of getting more exhaust energy are by adding displacement, adding boost, or adding rpm - but as you add any of these the turbo also needs to do a bit more work so there is a big balance of these things needed to even get to your target boost and sometimes that's not even possible. What you can see in step "A" is that there isn't enough engine rpm or boost to reach the level we want, so this is where "lag" is.  The dyno run continues and rpm increases, which gives enough energy to increase boost, which helps spool  the turbine speed up even more - so you can see that the rate that the boost (and turbo speed) are starting to ramp up faster than the engine rpm is, so turbo is really starting to wake up as the graph gets closer to point B....   B) At this point we've been able to reach the boost that is actually desired at this point.   To stop the boost from going further than this the wastegate will open and bypass gas past the turbine, meaning it doesn't continue accelerating at the point it was before but instead carry on at a more progressive rate which matches what the engine needs.   The wastegate will have a spring in it which is rated to a specific pressure where it will start bypassing, but electronic boost control (managed by the ECU) can adjust how much pressure the spring sees in order to allow some tunability on how much boost the wastegate actually sees, and therefore how much exhaust it bypasses.   The tune in this case stops boost from ramping up HARD at around 21-22psi just before 4000rpm, then as the rpm continue it allows boost to continue up to around 25psi higher in the rpm.   You can see the turbo speed fairly steadily increases through the rpm to ensure it's keeping up with the increasing airflow demand due to the engine speed being higher and boost being pretty steady.   If the boost dropped off after a point then you may see the turbo speed level off or even drop.   C) You can see that despite the boost pressure staying pretty flat here, the exhaust pressure is steadily increasing and at this stage has overtaken boost pressure.   This isn't unusual, and is largely as a result of the increasing energy needed by the turbo to pump more and more air to suit the needs of the engine as it revs out further.   There are a bunch of variables in regards to how much back pressure there will be on a given turbo etc, but its one of the factors we manage when sizing and tuning a turbo setup.   When exhaust back pressure starts exceeding boost pressure you will eventually start seeing signs that the turbo is running out, the engine gets less keen to make more power and it gets harder to raise boost further. In this case it's a fairly acceptable compromise for the power level (around 630kw on a 3litre engine with full boost by 4000rpm), but you'd not want to push it a lot harder than this.  The maximum speed rated for the compressor wheel on this setup is around 125,000rpm so you can see its starting to get close on that side as well - I feel like this kind of illustrates some of the turbo related things we both decide on how far to push, and are also limited to how far we can push depending on the parts combination. Hope this helps more than it confuses things  
    • For that influx of Spammers we had I made no pic posting and no PM's for first ten posts. This is group based and I've manually updated @Beanie to the Members group which will open up the images and PM's. 
    • Thx for the reassuring reply. I’ve got above legal clearance  going in for roadworthy Friday… fingers crossed it’s keeping me awake  bloody nanny state 
    • I was actually going to try and dig out a datalog with turbine speed and EMAP haha
    • Wait until @Lithium posts a compressor map and tries to explain what's going on. There is a strong possibility that the OP lives in a digital world and is not comfortable with analogue machines. A turbo is just about as analogue as it gets, with plenty of non-linear behaviours added in on top. Most of us who think we know how they work are actually only getting by on 2nd and 3rd order mental models that abstract away from the actual physics and bring it back to the sort of kindergarten level concepts we can hold in our heads. This is important when you need to hold 10 such concepts in your head at the same time. You need to reduce the complexity of the individual concepts to allow them to be simultaneously held and manipulated. Too much complexity in the base models makes it very difficult to make them work with each other mentally.
