Hm... Back to the horrible colour thing. Was the Prius two bright colours put together?

At least that is a plus in it, huh? I'ma make my ZR1 Sapphire Metallic and my tires a bright orange.

Well, it really isn't crap if the colours complement I could just do normal blue and normal orange, but that isn't as good looking and too bland. (Plus, I'm too lazy to put my PS3 to 1080i to use capture card)

Yea, like an all blue car, but matte pink on an Evo IX RM with it's black wheels is really.... lets say... Awkwardly coloured.

Thanks, I just changed and resprayed the wheels on that day, the wheels were matte black before that and the car was white
And it'll easily beat that time if Roj's NSX on sports softs could lap Fuji in 1:43.xxx, still, if you have that car in GT5, we could always find out with a proper race
It's been ages since I've had a race on Fuji

I didn't throw away the cars that I used in our shootout, so when PSN's back, we can have more 1-on-1's. 👍
About Fuji, I have to get its feel and rhythm before anything else though...

Or it must be in the blood.
Say, I've replaced the RE-MG's of my orange R34 with that other BBS rims that's also on the 380RS, dunno what's the name though. Can I paint it blue to match that Prius and to make Onboy123 puke even moar?
BBS LM-R.
And yes, you can. Also about beating the Z-Tune's times. I gave my R34 1 lap around Fuji. Really no contest to be honest. Z-Tune is over 10 seconds slower.
Also guys, keep the banter to a minimum please, dont want to get too spammy in here.

NO HE CANNOT PAINT HIS R34 IN PUKE ORANGE!!! Not when I'm going to race it -.-
And we've changed the challenge, haven't we? I'll be driving the Z-tune and uMadson? will drive the R34 in another online race.

No but I think you would, considering how bad it'll drive after full power (which is 800+ I think) So if you want to keep your wallet (and your sanity, for that matter), I wouldn't Still, your choice, I haven't actually got one though

Apparently Roj, there's one factor that should be considered - tires. The Z-tune runs on either the Potenza RE-01R or the Potenza RE-55S. After a bit of researching, the Potenza RE-01R is more of a performance-oriented street tire, or Comfort Softs. I dunno with the RE-55S though, anyone care to tell?
Anyways, after a bit of testing...
First up, with comfort softs. The Z-tune lapped around Tsukuba with RE-01R's in 1:03.54.
The RKM R34, strangely, was quite easy to drive in Comfort Softs, but all the understeer kicked in during braking. The car skidded a few times, but I loved it does some powersliding. It scored... 1:03.828.
Don't get mad at me, because that's just the first run to get used to the car. When I went all-out, it clocked in at 1:02.485. Boo-yah.
Ain't sure about the RE-55S so I'll call it off until I know what its compound is. For now, all that matters is this:
RKM - 1, NISMO - 0
But this is just part 1 though. Stay tuned.
