from what i gather, the game was optimised for play on the new driving force pro (unlike the last game which was the otehr way around) so if you're using the pads, you're gonna be missing out.

and er, that '86 prize car, isn't that the first mercedes car?

I bought a Skyline from the used store that I tuned to 480 HP. I transfered 100,000 credits which is the max from my GT3 game ( I have 3.7million). Driving the Nurburgring is the best, so fast so many turns. I'm going to start a new game from scratch as well.

Re: Gran Turismo 4 in 1:24

I had to buy the closest I could get to my 1:1, that is after I made enough money. I got myself a used 240sx (180sx actually). Same chassis, almost identical body, but different engine (i wish I had an sr). I also have a skyline, infiniti G20 and about 10 other cars I have won.

I was thinking today of a car that would be cool to make that is kind of GTish. A JGTC style 180sx, I don't know if it has been done before, but I am definatly going to add it to my long list of projects.

Yeah, so do I. I've gotten every version of this game so far, and with each version, I've had to improve/change my driving style. In fact, I'm getting better. Of course the creator of the game may be doing this on purpose, read an article online(so it must be true...I hope it is) that says he may add crash physics and such in GT 5 for the PS3. Doing that would force players to really improve their driving...in theory.

I love the game so far except for a couple of things. I was looking through the cars and in the French section under Peugeot and Citroen, in the new section, the rally cars are pretty old. The Citroen Xsara is the '99 version and the Peugeot 206 is the 2000 car...what gives? Those aren't new...they should be in the 'classics' section. Oh well....

Re: Gran Turismo 4 in 1:24

heh...Just bought 2 corvettes, 90 ZR1 (Makes 666 HP), and an 03 Z06 (Make 700 HP), I also bought a new Ford GT, and an 88 Volvo 240 GLT Estate (lol).

Heres how you can make easy money:

Go to special condition races, go to the second race called Capri Rally (Easy), race both tracks, and you will win a Toyota Rally car, you can sell it for $265000. Then, go back to the Capri Rally, and enter. It will ask you if you want to clear race data, or something like that, choose okay, race the races again, and you'll win the Toyota Rally car again..and you can sell it again for $265000. Easy way to get alot of cash quick.

Yup For some reason i suck badly in Rally on this game Its soo different! I already got the hang of the normal racing but the rally is just breaking my b*llz. Some of my cars are Cadillac Cien (900 suttin HP Supercharged, takes forever to shift gears) Nissan 350Z LM Concept (800 suttin horsepower turbo, my best car yet) Option Stream Z (Yup, the second edition of the one that got wrecked, the turbo spools soo loud) BP Falken D1GP FC RX7, Mugen Motul Civic 87', 93' Civic SiR-II (360 suttin HP), 90 Honda CRX SiR (STOCK!), Nismo 400R (I LOVE IT!), Mazdaspeed 6 with some WorkMeisters, Mazda 6 Concept, and a bunch of classics which im not selling yet because they don't have any value

Re: Gran Turismo 4 in 1:24

the nismo 400r is sick, gotta say i want tamiya to release so many cars that are in this game. Like the whole bmw and audi selection. The main car i had to get second cause 10,000 credits will get you something slow was the VW R32. Did you guys check the Toms Supra theres 2, hopefully tamiya releases that one too. Can't remember what exactly i got but some include 350z nismo, VW r32 tuned, 400r R33, mr2, r34 skyline, some weird nike go kart lookin thing, BMW m5 M3 M3 gtr and Z4, VW gti 05 76, audi s4 and many more can't think of at the moment. The only weird thing i don't like about the game is the 5 sec penalties you get after hitting the wall or car in the snow dirt competitions, oh well i guess it make it more realistic.

Off topic question - Some pre-release car-lists I saw of this game listed a 1970 Firebird Formula as in the game, I even saw pics of it. Did it make it into the final GT4 version?

Havn't seen one yet. But it may be one of those cars you have to unlock. The Pontiac seemed disappointedly empty.
