No problem Matt. I'm sure I can still find a copy tomorrow.

Thanks.

Yeah, I still don't know if I'm going to pick it up at all (because I need to buy a ps2 as well :p), but if I was, I'd totally grab a copy for you.

Okay, I'm a total fucking liar...I had to go to NEXTEL, and Game Stop was right next door, and they only had one copy left, so I bought it, sorry Nick, I=Loser...

So I'm guessing by the fact that there isn't anyone online, the game is good. I can't wait to see it.
Have fun everyone, you dirty dogs.

You can come over and play Indy 500 on my Atari 2600 if you want... Old School, Yo.

You guys better come to the meet.

Then I'll follow you home to watch some GT4 action.

Ug, so I found a copy of the game, but I couldn't find a PS2 to purchase as well :lol:

I went to 11 stores looking for a PS2. Every one had tons of games, but no PS2s... :x

Oh well, Kevin is letting me borrow his :D

Nick, you shouldn't have a problem finding the game. It looks like Reno has a ton.

I'd be in the same boat as you trying to find a ps2, only I'd have to get a tv to go with it.

Sweet dude! Actually my favorite racing game is the new mario kart. Plus you can play tag team style. Its really fun.

I was thinking I would pick my copy up before the meet..tomorrow night..since the place is in that part of town..then call into work friday :twisted:

Damn!! Doesnt anyone know?? Cant anyone answer my QUESTION??? lol

I am sitting here with a bought Skyline with HKS goodies.. and have won a couple of cars but nothing in the way of knowing how to get my #3 money to #4.. :? :cry:

It is in the game status menu press start then you can only transfer 100,000 credits. You can also transfer some license that you already pass too. I play til 2am last night and I'm here at work at 7 :cry: . I'm sleepy. :D

Sounds like fun... I'm not into all this video game realism... Give me something fun to crash into, bounce off of, or generally have fun in, and I'll play. The old Atari 2600 games fit this bill nicely.

If I want realism, I'll go outside...

So, how many people used their money to buy a virtual replica of their car already (or as close as possible) :p






<-- raises hand

+1 ;) 8) :lol:

And Yes!!! I thought about you when I saw the Legacy GT.. lol

lol Same here and Thanks I just transfered over my 100k + it only let me transfer 2 licences :( .. Oh well ...

I passed my B tests last night (small victory)...

Confession, In my life, I had played about a total of 5 mins worth of Gran Turismo prior to owning GT4, so I have to learn a lot.

Thanks for the info Nick. I'm going to go pick up a copy before the meet tonight. I've got the whole family coming tonight. See you all there.

Nick:

Which stores had "tons" of games? I just got $100 in best buy reward certificates, so I was planning on there.

Well normally it would have helped to play gt3 longer but in this case GT4 is a whole new game ;) ...

I did not transfer any license because I wanna learn how the new car handling. It was a while back when I pass that license. So tonight plan is pass the 1st license with all Gold :D .

I think Best buy and Walmart had collective shitloads of the game..

I called(WALMART) 2 days ago to see if they had it, well an/the(Oriental) lady in Electronics ans. the phone and I politely asked if they had gotten the new racing game (s) , she said no we havent.. I said I havent even told you the name of the game yet, she said Oh you mean for the ps2 I said CORRECT.. She then went on to say, we havent gotten that game in .. I said what game? She said the Correct game .. lol.. I said no ma'am I'm wanting to find out if you guys have GT4 for the PS2 .. she said.. ohh that game.. lol
I said yes, that game.. she said .. nope nothing here yet.... :lol: :lol:

Better frame rate too!

Is that more or less than a whole bunch? :P

Slightly more....are you taking notes? hahaha

I tried to buy my car in the game, but I couldn't find any Bugeyes for sale in the Used Car lot... I'm hoping they'll turn up later.

Also, has anyone noticed when they take their car to the Tuner Village (or whatever it's called) and checked out specific parts for their car that there's an extra "Original" option for parts over the options at the dealer?

For example: I brought my R34 to the HKS shop, and there were 4 suspension options instead of three: "Sport", "Semi-Race", "Full Race", and the added "Original". I'm guessing "original" isn't a very good term, since I was thinking OEM... I think it should be called "Custom", since it looks like a custom tuned part from that tuner for that car.

So anyway, I got the "Original" HKS suspension for the Skyline, and checked out the settings... it looks like the full race suspension, except it doesn't have independent bump/rebound adjustment. Which explains why the price is a little cheaper than the full race deal.

Anyone have more details on these "Original" parts?

Yeah, Walmart had tons. Best Buy had some too. Toys'R'Us had plenty. EB had quite a few. Good luck Nick.

They'll show up later, just check the used car lots occasionally. I just bought a blue bugeye with the Subaru Giken kit (wrc-look front bumper and wing)

I'll bring up my card, you can always buy it off my card if you can't find one.
If anyone finds a black legacy GT-B like mine, I want to buy it this weekend.

Oh, for quick money.......
Costa d' Amalfi special conditions race (the second set of special conditions races) with a ~250hp car, (I used my GT-B wagon) you race an integrale, a GT4, or an old quattro. Win both races, you get 10k and a Toyota RSC rally raid car worth $260k. Rinse and repeat; when you go to race again, it will let you clear your win record for that event so you can win the prize car again. 20 minutes of driving will get you almost 600k.

This would go well with GT4

Sweet!

:lol:

looks like he has a helmet for the co-driver.......but no seat :shock: :lol:

That is probably where my wife will draw the line! :lol:

So you could have the rollcage but not the full shell? :P

No, no, no, she would never let me where the helmet in the living room!

Which room is OK? Bedroom? :lol:

But how else do you get that extra bit of realism?

That pic made my day, thank you :lol:

Hey Josh! Your over here whoring it up.
Nice to see you.

that and the mouth guard

Sweet... Josh is in the hizzle! :D

If you look at the cage, you'll notice that's not attached to the seat/wheel rig. It looks like that guy has a pretty nice wheel setup (something that I've been contemplating building ever since I used to race online, but that I don't have room for... yet) and a cage that's wating to get installed in a car. So he tossed the cage over the virtual cockpit, put on his helmet, grabbed the camera, and hilarity ensued.

If I missed this in the previous 3 pages, sia - but did you see the whole seat setup that is sold for the driving games?
$292 seat

Nice find.....Everyone tell my wife how cool that is tonight!

I hope that comes with an airbag!

Here's an old pic of my setup... I've since replaced the wheel w/ a newer Logitech (the old one broke) and the pedals have been cut down to just 3. I'm also still in the process of re-wireing the pedals for compatability w/ more games.

Ok, it bears asking. Why were there ever 4 pedals?

The second clutch for double clutching, duh...


actually, I think this setup was meant to allow for flight sims too.

I have my old SRD Recaro seat in the garage may be I should rig it up. :lol:

Or duh it's AWD, one set for the front, one for the rear.
