GT4 General Discussion and Questions

[Famine]

There's a more in-depth discussion of Photomode in the game's manual...

 

[Poverty]

Famine speaks of truth.

 

[Kooky]

Please, I need help! I know there's been a lot of questions regarding the 4 black cars, but I haven't seen any that answer this....

If the black cars appear on days 694 through 700, do they reappear on days 1328 through 1334? I'm sorta in a rush so I need an answer quick. Again, I'm sorry if I somehow looked over this...

 

[GM]

No,

They reappar on days 1394-1400

Hope it helps

 

[djblackmon]

What if your past that, because Im in to 2000's but not near 2400 yet. Also where do they appear, and if in the right time period are they available every day?

 

[Famine]

They appear on day 694-700 of every 700 day cycle.

This means days 694-700, 1394-1400, 2094-2100, 2794-2800, 3494-3500 and so on.

They appear there for the full week - every used car list is refreshed every 7th day.

I missed the first two and said hell with it.So I went out and won some of them, but wound up buying the pesky C60 '04

You can't win the Black cars!

 

[djblackmon]

He's talking about the colored ones.

 

[Mayuri Ootsuka]

Real shame all of the "race spec" cars don't just turn up in the used lot every so often.

Maybe in the future you will need to really nurse old cars.

With every part on the car getting loose and wearing out, so Buying a Used LM car could be cheap initially but then it will just be a 4 wheel repair bill as parts need to be replaced much quickers than on a brand new one.

We need GT5 "WI" edition "What if..."

 

[HYBRIDLVR]

He's talking about the colored ones.

What gives you that suggestion? I only see dates that pertain to the Black one's?

 

[djblackmon]

He said he missed them twice so he just WON the cars and BOUGHT ONE of them

 

[Mayuri Ootsuka]

Not sure About starting a thread about this. So I'll float it here.

Do you have any ideas for corner names for the tracks in GT4.

When you post some OLR race results would it make more entertainment if you said.

"I was doing well until about lap 15 when my rear tyres began to chunk and then I had a huge spin out at the Gravity Cavity..." in a report over the El Capitan Enduro.

I'm not asking for names for every single corner, and I certainly don't want "SP33D Haxor's bend" but maybe a collection of names that make you remember the older days of racing.

Most of the Real Life city tracks don't really need corner names with too much imagination as the local landmarks should help you out. (42nd Street Hairpin, Icho-Namiki, Vendome Chicane, etc.)

So maybe a homage to famous corners of the past.

So worthy of a thread on its own?

 

[Famine]

sukerkin named nearly every single corner at Deep Forest, after driving a Jensen Interceptor round it at UKGTP4.

Though it's tough for the uninitiated to tell "Yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi!" corner from "Whup-whoooooooo" corner.

 

[G.T]

I see potential in there being a thread on it. Could be very interesting.

Myself though, a corner is just a corner. I don't even remember the name of one corner of the Nurburgring!

 

[Dave^]

dunno where else to ask this without getting flamed so i'll ask in here, lol....

Yep.You can do everything in B-Spec and still win the car for whichever event.

Welcome!

 

[GM]

If you win the race completly using B-Spec you win the car and the money, if you win the race doing it a mix of a+b spec you win both, if you do it just spec you win both.

Remember to clear the race if you've alredy won it though


Edit - Beaten to it......

Did anyone elso notice with the caterham 7 that if you have the S/C on it and you do the engine balancing that power drops a whole lot? I had one fully tuned and had 268hp but after the engine balacing it fell to 228hp.......Now the fun part when I equip the standard exhaust from the racing, the power goes back up to 266hp wierd.

 

[Automobile]

Has anyone noticed how the gear ratios change slighly after you apply NA tuning?

 

[GT4 Racer2006]

Yeah, the racing exhaust gave me less power than the sports-racing...

No. You download it from XLink Kai.
