"You can select instruments to add to three gauge slots, selecting from boost meter, water temperature gauge, oil temperature gauge, tachometer, speedometer, oil pressure gauge, and fuel pressure gauge."

This is both awesome and useless.

Who cares? Gauges for all the things!

 

[PsuPepperoni]

True. But still, the update never came out yesterday but did today. So haha still beated you.

It came out yesterday in my time zone

- 12 Sections (check)
- Mini Map (with a bar in the middle) split in sectors and colors (check)
- Overtake counter (check)
- Combo X (check)
- Tiiiiiiiime extensiooooooon!! (check)
- Ski mask (check)
- Sawn-off (check)
- Guilty conscience, fear of death (check, check, check!!)

All the speculation was right

Ugh...The gauges look really silly, in my opinion. Plus, I probably spend less than 2% of my driving in cockpit view, so they're of no use for me.

A question: How do I obtain the Nissan GT-R Nismo? I thought it would just pop up that I got it since I participated in GT Academy...

 

[Boxout]

So you can't drive Zahara in Arcade?!?

What a stupid move that is.

Maybe you have to complete the rally to unlock it first? (Shouldn't be the case, since Senna tracks and Goodwood always been available)
And are you sure you guys are looking in all categories? Maybe is in World Circuits for some reason.

 

[ThePolishMike]

Love the Nismo, launches like a rocket from a standing start

 

[DSkywalker01]

Gauges can use the whole color spectrum... a first for GT.

 

[Crumpet]

I can confirm you need to complete one of the Zahara challenges to use it in Arcade, Free Run and Online.

The Nismo is able to be purchased in the dealership.

 

[SVX]

Oh wait, these go in the interior of a premium car! 3 slots total, you can adjust colour/hue/saturation/brightness. This is cool! You can even set the measurments of the gauges!

 

[Aesthetics]

Can't play this until Friday.

But gauges. Gauges EVERYWHERE!

 

[Boxout]

Awesome, thanks for making it clear.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Does the game let you put in a boost gauge in a NA car?
If does what happens with it? The gauge just keep stopped?

Also how functional are the oil/water pressure things?

Boost gauge on NA car: It can be installed, nothing happens, it sits at 0.

Oil/water: They work, it's a little hard at times to see if they move but they work. 👍

This sounds like Outrun.

Very important question here.

What is the start line girl's name?

 

[ALB123]

I had a feeling this was going to be the case when I saw the video of the people racing Zahara last week. This track is ONLY going to be available in the Special Events section. Not Arcade Mode... This is beyond lame...

 

[TokoTurismo]

lol Guess you did then, although I wasn't here when this released so I wouldn't know anyway.

'Her' facial features look too manly, I'm not so sure if that's really a girl if you know what I mean.

 

[CTznOfTime]

Zahara is in the game, PD have the chance to unlock it right now.

Come on, fingers crossed.

I was on page 13 when i shut my game down...

I was busy doing some stuff, then suddenly i see page 17... .


Downloading right now

It unlocks in arcade after you beat the event.

 

[DSkywalker01]

The NISMO is in the Nissan dealership... strange.

Gina Turismo

Or as @Boxout mentioned above maybe Gene Turismo.

 

[ALB123]

Oh, good...I'm sitting here staring at my screen thinking "I'm only going to be able to run this track with the 3 cars they have set aside for the Special Event?!" Oh, you just made my day...

Ohh, i'm really scared of... zahara comes, but we can only play in the special event...
Thanks, bro

It's literally the dude from Goodwood with longer hair on a girl's body.

pd why no premium women

 

[Brutaka]

I forgot about the GT6 in-game installer

 

[RACECAR]

So if what I'm reading is true, then NISMO does not get a premium car.

So you can't drive Zahara in Arcade?!?

What a stupid move that is.

Actually you can, but you must complete one of the events to do so.

 

[DSkywalker01]

In all its glory!

The gauge thing sounds pretty cool, if I'm reading it right.
