Gran Turismo 4

[Jones~32]

Just out of interest...

Anyone on here that plays GT4? and do any of you drive the same Toyota on the game as you do in real-life?

Quality game, especially racing the Nurburgring in Le-Mans prototypes :D

i do play on it but i couldnt tell you if its the same as i havent found a Surf on it yet

[Carrera_C]

I've got it, and yes... sadly enough I own several forms of Celica in it. :D

[Jones~32]

I've got a JGTC Supra, but obviously dont own one in real-life

quite like driving a DB9 down the Mulsane @ Le Mans, sounds awesome

[Leeky]

I play GT4. I drive a Red Supra TT in it and my favouite track is the Nurburgring. In real life i own a 94 Red UK Supra TT and back in March i took it round the Nurgurgring

My favourite car is also the Castrol Tom's Supra, and im trying to build one of those in real life at the moment ;) see avatar below ;)

[Fidgits]

I did play it...

I got to 96% and got bored...

and yes, i have my car in it...

Castrol Toms Supra is a beast of a machine....

Not too sure if im right on this but they only used a 2 litre in the JGTC didnt they?

Are you going to put that in yours? that would be well sweet

Good luck with it and make sure to get some pics up of it!

You'll definately get some attention in that!

Dont think much will be able to keep with it for long tho!

Is the 3SGTE the same engine that was in the Corolla WRC a few years back??

You gotta get a memory card.... then you can start on the engine mods :D

[CAMSHAFT]

this is the honest truth, ive played GT4 some much that I did the ligaments in my right thumb, I was in a black M3 going round the Paris, to many god damm corners :ffs: it started clicking on the lap before but I only had 2 laps left so I pushed her on. any way ill never forget it, breaking hard into a corner it clicked for the last time and god the pain had to stop and let go a sure she ran on into the barrier and I could not continue, ive being to see the doctor and ive had to leave it for the last 3 weeks and he gave me exercises to do warm up my thumb in the future so it wont happen again, I should get the all clear to race this week and that is honestly 100 and 10% true, herself do not know herself since she said there is great peace in the house

Thats pretty bad luck! I take it you were using the joypad then?

I'm using the wheel and pedals, so hopefully wont be doing myself any damage!

They do say "Motorsport is dangerous" just shows how realistic the game is :D lol

[Blaze]

I cant! Not until i have the say so! And she is filthy so ill clean her this weekend and take piccies hopefully *fingers crossed* i can tell you all maybe sunday! Im dying to tell people but i can yet! Just have wait and see!

Camshaft, Thats not a good thing to do! :( just think of how many valuble hours of playing time youve missed! You should have taken a break!! :(

You wanna try the game with the 900 degree steering wheel, its quality apart from trying to correct oversteer! :ffs:

My car of choice at the moment is the Mines Skyline, top car

its the only thing i play i have them all i still love GT1 and get it out every once and awhile, i`ve heard of it before about people doing damage to there thumbs, like the break button on joypad will only last 6-8 months with me, they stop working and i have to get a new joypay. so you can imagine the pressure my thumb is under. god i remember when GT2 came out i was in college and 2 of us did 8 hour shifts for 5 days, its that good
