@commandorando just remember that you use a single post for all your results. So if you post them as you go you'll need to edit the original post and post a notification with a link to that post that you've updated your results.đź‘Ťđź‘Ť
 
Only if you want to compare laptimes or keep a record of things.

thats what pen and paper are for;) replays don't keep track of my thoughts on the car.

Just make sure your times are in one post for easy linking đź‘Ť

I'll be pestering you guys on how to do that in a day or two:sly:

Again thanks for the help everyone:cheers::gtpflag:

Chasing ghosts for the final improvement in the laps. ;)

Glad to be of service. :dopey:

I also need these people to send me FRs if they want they tune tested
 
Mine did the same, but at least I hold mine to the road :lol:

Well I didn't. I took off, the left side hit the ground so hard the back was bounced up again, it span sideways, damn near shot me off the track and into the lake with Nessy and yet I survived to tell the tale and didn't make a big deal out of it. :P :lol:
 
Oh? Is it a Legnum or something to rival the Wallbanging Caldina thing?

Nope, something completely different with much less utility. I had it tuned for something else but bailed on it because it looks like @$$ with the stock wheels. Now that I can change them it's a different story. :D

A MR2? Skyline?
 
A MR2? Skyline?

Nope and nope. Skyline is on the right track.

I'll be testing for sure tomarrow night from around 9pm till 2am PST. By no means do I expect to finish all the testing, just saying thats the next definite window that I'll be online.

The tuners still have another two weeks to get their entries in. No need to rush too much with testing yet. :sly:

I'm not too worried about it. With 13 tuners already entered in my test range it would be nice to get ahead of the ever growing snowball of doom though:scared:
 
psh just do it like a school project... wait till the day its due and then do it all!

If only I could:indiff: Unfortunetly ownership of the ps3 belongs to my brother so I have to wait till he's at work to get my time in. You'd think that would motivate me to actually get a job and my own system, but you'd be wrong:dopey:
 
Still looking for someone to take me up on my challenge and use one base car to build the "one car to rule them all, one car to bring them all, and in the paddocks bind them!":crazy::D

RX-7 Spirit R '02, done. My secret is out. :P
 
This is why I love the slim PS2. It's only slightly bigger than a DVD case so carrying it in your briefcase or backpack is easy. :lol: Only issue is finding a TV that still accepts SCART and a plug socket, which shouldn't be too hard in most hotels.

Yep, I am soon going on an exotic 10-month vacation to Afghanistan (...) and I am most likely bringing my PS2 with GT4 for entertainment...
 
Bring em on she'll outrun you both with enough time for a stop at the mall after dropping the kiddies off for practice!:crazy::lol::crazy:
Looks like I'll be entering one of those not so exclusive Spirit R's also, just finished up my 490PP tune yesterday. Breaking it in now, Hope you testers like Mazdas:lol:

For my other entries I'm testing an Evo @520 and my 300,000cr. Isuzu only punches out to around 534PP, a shame too as I really like that car but I'll have to look elsewhere for a 550PP entry I guess.:banghead:
 
do any of the test drivers like a bit of manageable oversteer? As with most japanese sports cars, ive added a massive turbo

Anthony%20Cahill,%20Japspeed,%20Sileighty,%20Nissan,%20JDM%20Allstars%20Manchester%20Sunday%2006.jpg


just a little taster of whats to come (it smokes more than the one pictured)

For what class? And I praise cars which oversteer, especially FFs. :D Shame I ain't testing. :P
 
I have been using a Praiano tuned Amuse R1 S2000 from his "Touge" specs to practice on the two tracks, it's been quite fun with a car that moves around so much but is so controllable. I am really looking forward to driving some of these cars!

Well, it's Praiano. What the hell else do you expect. :lol: MineÂ…doesn't do that. In fact, it will feel rock solid and brick stiff if you don't drive it right.
