I moved from left foot braking to right foot braking when I got the three pedal setup and the actual H pattern shifter seals the deal. I've got the Fanatec CSR and the clutch support is a little better in Forza than in GT 5 and I've been playing more of that lately. |

I notice lately a lot of people are getting into the fully racing seat with the metal frame which enable you to mount the steering wheel and padels with the tv.

no i got my cockpit for like $289 best offer ( plus shipping) on ebay so i think it was about $360 to my door... im counting everything in the set up the TV and everything to make it like it is as you see. i bought the TV used from my brother for like $200 its just a 40" RCA plasma 1080p thats a few years old... it works fine for the set up as i didnt want to put a lot of money into a TV i would only use for the simulator.. i was going to fork out for a sound system or sound bar...but then i got the idea of the headphone and now i like that so much better anyway i got the DFGT back when it was $149. now you can get it for $99 or less |

does anyone have a extra silver chrome paint they want to trade me for something?
|
^^ isn't a can of Chrome Silver spray paint around $3.00? Or are you referring to something different.
edit: Doh! I got the completely wrong notion. You mean in-game paint chips lol! |
:p

I bought a Wheel Stand Pro for under $200 and its perfect for the couch or chair or whatever. Much cheaper than a seat, but obviously the seat is top notch but $$$!. I would recommend it if you can afford it because it can be used in many different setups as it is fully adjustable, and folds away so the wifey doesnt get too mad haha.

Also with that stand, you bolt down the steering wheel, shifter and pedals if you wish (all hardware included), makes it pretty solid... The thing weighs in at like 30 lbs... |

So lets start some fun topics in here. What's your favorite setup for: 1. Non racecar <400 pp 2. Non racecar 400-500 pp 3. Non racecar 500-550 pp Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk 2 |
good question but I started over since getting the wheel, so i cant answer yet. But curious to see what people say...
|
There is nothing like playing a racing game in a sim chassis.
I've posted pictures of my setup earlier but here is a new photo. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20...kpit/photo.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y20...t/IMG_0561.jpg |

OK alchemy, I need drifting help. What's a good car to learn with? Is it like in real life Where I Can just use s-15. What would be the suspension/tire set up? What else?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk 2 |
ZMAN, one of my fav cars is the premium s13. Most drifters use comfort hard tires. Right now Im in love w the premium 300zx. The hard part about learning to drift is that how the car reacts online is dif then offline. Online the cars feel much more slippery.
|
Damnit everytime I see this thread it reminds me that I haven't played this game enough!
I have a feeling I will start playing it again once summer is over :( |
Ugh, Zman, I edited my last post and included a setup but it didnt save!! Dont feel like typing it all again. I tune cars for people so feel free to send me anything, Ill tune and send it back:tup:

Idk why online is diff, its weird. But online the cars feel way more slippery. If I remember when I get home ill post my s13 drift tune for ya:tup:
|
Part of why online is different is because of the "progressive" physics employed in the single player campaign. Running a race in the lower groups uses much more forgiving physics than in the latter/expert groups. Part of the effort to ramp up the difficulty in a progressive fashion.
That and partly because of lag -- even a fraction of a second delay in correction makes a difference to how the car handles and if some steering input has to round trip between server and client that can account for some of the handling differences. |
I want more cars. They're pretty slow with DLC content. I also wish they would unlock more upgrade options for cars like the Z. How is there no turbo upgrades or a Nismo Version?!

ZMAN, here is my premium S13 drift setup. Now, this is what works for me. Dif people have dif styles so Im not sure this will be perfect for you but should at very least give you a good starting point in making the car comfy for ya. First off, install ALL available mods EXCEPT the chassis re-enforcement amd dont add any kind of spoiler. Some higher pp drift cars benefit from a spoiler but the S13 is not in need of one. I also use the stage 3 turbo. The most important part of the setup is the suspension settings, naturally. They are as follows. Ride height: -20 front and rear Spring rate: 5.7 front 4.8 rear Dampers (extension & compression) set all to 2 Anti roll bars: 1 front 2 rear Camber: 2.7 front 1.3 rear Toe: .08 front .11 rear ( as Im looking at this I think the car would def benefit from using neg toe in the front, not sure why I have it positive. I would try -.06 to -.08 in front. Differential: set all to 60 Transmission: I have the trans set to 155 on this car but usually set my drift transmissions to 174mph. Try something in between there. Bigger tracks require a higher trans so your 2nd and 3rd gear last longer, those are the 2 gears Im usually in while drifting. Brake bias: Try 4 front 7 rear. More braking toward the rear is gonna make it easier to kick the azz out using the normal brakes. Use comfort hard tires. Best advice I can give is that you really have to feather and be aware of your foots input on the gas pedal. Its all about finesse. When Im in a drift Ill be BARELY applying throttle a lot of the time. It took me awhile to master drifting but once you do its very, very fun, especially on a wheel setup:tup: |

:iagree: and not more version of the gtr or race cars. They Should update current modifications you Can make to cars and add more.features. create a few new tracks. And put 20-50 cars of various types that dont already exist. Quote:
So what youre saying is a spoiler will hurt performance on the s13 or its just useless upgrade that's waste of credits? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk 2 |
"Standard" cars really piss me off in general. They look like crap and makes me not want to play the game. It took them over half a decade to make this game for God's sake. Having nicely rendered cars and access to them without going through the "used car" BS isn't too much to ask for. I mean come on, the Veyron didn't even make the cut.

have any of you done the Nurburgring Time Trial with the Tuned 370Z from GT Academy? I can't get even close to Gold, what setups are optimal for the Nurburgring?
