Grand Turismo 4 Problems ?

[Archie@]

regarding the power conversions, im not sure if this is happening to everone (i assume it would be) be it dos'nt actually make a difference what power unit u pick it still shows the same figures in your garage.... my N1 GTR is both 410 HP and 410kw?!?! it happens to all my cars. there is no actual conversion...what the f***?? Thats abit lame...why put the option in for diffrent power units if it makes no difference.................

Yeah its flawed this game but the special conditions race where you win the 700 plus Kw Caddallacki for just winning 2 races makes up for the bad things.

The V8's sound crap with exhausts too, I thought they where suppose to be authentic and I dont care what anyone says, there is to much understeer developed in this game !

Haha I got done by that corner as well with the pace car!

[2BNVS]

yer with the conversions i dunno whats goin on, my gtr says 478kw in the garage then in the race it says 331kw

ah well

ben...

Could the pace car go *any* slower....

We just got a GT Force Pro steering wheel for $280.. be warned there are steering wheels out there for the same price with really cheap bearings that crack frequently..

I don't know how you guys got so many $$ & cars so quickly.. we must be @ work too much!! Need to take more sick days?

i liked the test where u had to drive the subaru wrx around the dirt track...full sideways....

me totally noob at driving so i can only get 7,500 a day, playing the same races until i get more money to buy a diff car...or max out my r34 n1....either one:P

I've discovered a good/easy way to get upgrade your car so its a decent 1st-3rd running car and then switch to B-Spec mode and let your driver win the races for you. I've earnt around $30k in an hour by winning 2 Sil80's and 6 races. Almost have enough for a GTR now so then i'll go back to racing seriously again.

whats happening is the in game hp/kw converter dont work, what you are actually reading is the hp at race events, dont ask cuz i dont know why i thought it was suss too

[Guerilla]

I got GT4 from EB yesturday i was day dreaming but the guy said something about an extra $5 would give me insurnace with some issue on the game and i was just like ' Ah na its ok'

[VIPERGTSR01]

BTW its Gran Turismo, I just noticed these threads saying Grand Turismo

[KILL HSV]

there is qualifying... its called "Practice" this time tho.

and from what i can tell its not at the wheels figures..... it looks more like a bug cause most of the differences are conversions. ie. my 350z has 770kw but in the info it has 570kw which is pretty much the exact HP to KW total. ie. 770HP is 570kw

so im not sure about at fly and at wheels.

where abouts is this practice? is it not in the events where you win money or something?

[Archie@]

where abouts is this practice? is it not in the events where you win money or something?

it's only in the slightly longer events. not all (beginner events in particular) will have them.

[Frunknmont]

The practice/qualifying is only availablr in series races not in the single races. It comes in real handy on those rolling start races where sometimes you can be up to 8 seconds behind from the start

I picked up something yesterday racing in the GT-R challenge.

I was driving a R32 V-specII with the traction control and oversteer ASM off but the understeer ASM on about 2-3.

What happens is if you happen to trail brake into a corner the ASM would put power on and would help spit you off the track, it took me ages to work out wtf was going on and only picked it up by the groan of the RB26 when I was on the anchors.

Something to watch out for people, if your going to turn down the diving aids turn them completely off.

[PHaT MR30]

yeh i got extremely pissed off with that power on thing.

another thing i want to know is can you use your garage cars in arcade mode?
