Wow! Nice one Mee

Here is my latest aquisition, it handles like a dream too and goes like stink (Soft Sports tires, HKS Suspension, 66mm ride height!

, supercharged, various drivetrain mods and a stage 2 weight reduction)
if you are looking for a car around the 40 grand mark, i couldnt reccomend it enough

go the GT4 edition though, has more power

It didn't take me long to lose my console virginity after seeing some of the footage/screenies from gt4

Read somewhere you can plug in any usb key in to your ps2 and save your pics to it for easy transferring to PC

I'm getting the GT4 PS2 pack + the controller, remote and memory card pack on Thursday. Yay for getting a year older

That flying falcon pic looks awesome

The flying R32.... enough said :P

careful, not all usb memory sticks will work. hard to find a definative list of ones which work though.

i just used a 128mb USB MP3 player i had, worked fine

and mee, my friend accross the road put a wing on the 350z, didnt look very good... then again, he put one on a clio V6 too

then again you might be into This

Tak, have you needed to modify your car setup to get your cars to drift like that? or just turn the traction control off?

chaz, maybe try find an emulator for PS2? i could send you a PS2 to USB adapter so you could go an buy a PS2 controller... :P

Drifting in the Trueno is easy 9ra55. Mine in stock form (other than oil change and N3 tyres) drifts very nicely, even gets a nice rhythm going. Oh, and always turn the shitty aids off

Haven't tried modding it yet, some cars I prefer stock... like the Griffith 500, in stock form it has a wonderful balance and is very entertaining to drive.

Tak, does that particular Trueno mod well like in GT3? In GT3 it was my favourite car and my drifting setup was actually a very very quick grip setup when I put slicks on it.

I found myself having a blast in the FPV F6 Typhoon last night around the ring. On a lot of the high speed corners it was cornering/drifting just how the cars would when racing in GPL... it was weird/entertaining driving a sedan that was behaving like a GPL car, just a bigger and heavier version of one anyway. The F6 was stock except for N2 tyres. I think I only managing 8:48.xx & 8:43.xx as I did have the odd high speed moment, need to put in more laps tonight - two just ain't enough

cant remember how it was in gt3. i have this one modded to the max though, gets about 220hp with NA tune and 270 with a turbo

racing slicks are pretty much the only item i havent bought for it so that should be interesting

I had a go at both version, international and asian version.
Seems handling is different.

International version seems to have more of an arcade feel because i tried the M3 on N2 tyres..the one before street and it seems to turn in much more easily compared to asian version. Also the rear slides much more easily.
In international version you get a bit of understeer to warn you that your nearing the limit and as soon as your over, its bit difficult to keep it under wraps eg: apply enough counter-steer to keep it straight and not spin the car other way around

Damn u guys, I have decided to buy a PS2 again, that'll be three in 2 years... lol...

Traded my last one in for a few PC games,

But the pics from GT4 look amazing, and the fact that Nurb*ring is in it, well... Sold...

Threeps · Post by **Threeps** » Wed Mar 23, 2005 7:13 pm

Yes, me too. My ps2 has been in retirement for quite a while. I bought one of the new Williams F1 force feedback wheels and tried it with GT3 and the damn usb ports on my ps2 are broken. (I checked it on another PS2) Today I went and bought a slimline one so when I get GT4 for my b'day on Friday I'll be ready. Damn the new PS2 is small.

Takumi · Post by **Takumi** » Wed Mar 23, 2005 7:30 pm

Yep. i originally bought a ps2 a few months after they were released for $750. i had since sold it in 2003 after playing GT3 to death. with san andreas and gt4 coming i got a pstwo a few months ago,

after finishing san andreas in january i was like "why the hell did i buy a ps2 again.." but now it's totally all been worth it by a long shot, for me anyway

I tried this last night. My USB stick worked fine.
Do people know that the option to save to the stick doesn't come until after you've taken the shot?

Are these in game shots?

Takumi · Post by **Takumi** » Sat Mar 26, 2005 6:37 pm

yep.

essentially photomode just makes them high res, and depending how you set the camera up, affects the focus etc.
