***The Official Gran Turismo 5 Thread***

at what level did you guys feel you could stop telling your b spec driver when to speed up / slow down / overtake?

oh and btw i still cant find where the options are for anti skid / abs etc. :( halp

what is the highest level car in game? 40?

It's next to the checkered flag you click on to start the race... under Driver Options.

This ^ But they're not available to alter in B-Spec

has anyone managed to get some really funky colours yet? any pearlescent?

I brought a TVR for the British Lightweight race, so naturally I spec'd it in green/purple :cool:
 
any chance someone can loan me a car for Like the Wind?

I only have 200k pocket money at the moment :( promise to give it back tomorrow

(DeLiTa7x in game name)
 
anyone wanna send me a classic car for the euro and world beginner classic races, need to go back and do them, think its pre 1969, cheers in advance
 
some things really do annoy me about GT5...for example my Lex LFA sounded gorgeous with a few mods - i then applied stage3 engine tuning and it sounds s***. And engine tunung is irreversible so i have no option to buy another LFA just cos i cant remove the mod. Fuming!!!. ( i also found the titanium exhaust makes every car sound s***)


On a side note i have a backed up game save where my Lex LFA was without the stage3 mod. Can i load that up, gift it to someone, then gift it back to myself on my latest gamesave?
 
RX-7 Spirit R Type A (FD) '02

Tbh, could do it in the Bathurst too, just I had that one already fully engine modded.

Built the Spirit up from scratch just for that race so could keep my setup on other for supercar events :p

I managed to get to second and 10 seconds behind with my fully tuned one of that.

How did you manage it?!? I hate the bloody thing, wants to tail out all the time.

Also I can't do the Focus ST one either, just understeers into everything. :(

Done the mini one tho, anybody got any tips/setups for the ST/RX7 Seasonal events?

I do. Cheat. Turn Skid Recovery Force on.

Fixes everything! (though the RX7 can be improved with the aero mods, giving it grip)

I quit game that one, can get to 3rd then get bored on lap 2, put the fully adjustable gear box and pull the ratios down to a top of about 135/130 mph...

Dont know how to finish it yet though

I posted a youtube video a page or two ago with the settings at the end. I mostly followed those, but dropped the top speed to 130mph. I took the lead on lap 4 by driving nice and cleanly :)

Setup I used:

Body/Chassis: all weight reductions + rigidity improvement and all aero parts.
Engine: Sports ECU + Stage 1 tune.
Intake System: Sports intake manifold + Racing air filter.
Exhaust: Sports manifold + Sports cat.
Turbo: Stage 1 turbocharger.
Transmission: Fully customised.
Drivetrain: Twin clutch, Semi racing flywheel + Carbon propshaft. (I did buy the LSD too but didn't alter anything afterwards)
Suspension: Standard.

393bhp + 1051kg

Settings:

Transmission: 168mph (you won't reach max but I found this gearing best for me).
Brakes: 8 Front / 7 Rear
Aero: 22 Rear
Traction Control: 2
ABS: 5
Skid force control: On

Unless you know what your doing with the suspension settings I think it's near on impossible todo this one without skid force control on, which is annoying.
 
Wow, B Spec dream car championship is a doddle, my guy is lapping them on the 3rd lap of 14 on Monza in the wet. What the AI is doing i have no idea.
About time i say, let the PS3 AI drivers act like morons for a change and not my B Spec drivers.
Minolta at 1040bhp at only 850kg is crazy, not Red Bull crazy but still dynamite.
 
For some reason the turning ratio on the car keeps going awful tight, like one race I did the other day in the buggati it was fine turned greatly, then next race I did a few days later going round corners was disgusting it barely turns. Not sure whats going on.
