mine is black too. and I know, i wish they could just let you paint the main color... meh.. lol

I'm going to be home all this week if anyone want to do some online racing. Today might be a little difficult but I should be available Tuesday thru Friday to race.

Finally got some GT5 time in yesterday starting with the Super GT seasonal races!

I haven't been able to play in months after everything was going on with the network being down :mad:

ive kind of hit a wall..... im at level 34 on Aspec and Bspec

ive got gold on all the seasonals ( igot silver on that last expert event)

ive got 20 Mil credits and i feel letting my PS3 run all day to level up in Bspec is now pointless

you can just send me all the cars in the dealership! :tup:


:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

I've hit the 20M limit a few times. I just have to keep buying cars.. :tup:

man, and I thought i was carefree with my cash when I bought a STi just to paint it gold.. lol

Nice MC! Since we are showing off our racing seats, here is mine.

NIce. What brand and how much?

Its a Gameracer Pro. I forget what I paid. Prob around $400. I feel it could be priced lower although it is nicely built. All the adjustibility you need. People think the steering post in the middle is the flaw with this design but its not in the way at all. It folds up so small I can fit it in the trunk of my Z!!!!

Do you know how it compares with the new Playseat Revolution? The design looks very similar. I almost pulled the trigger on the Playseat, but I was worried about how sturdy it would be ...

Im sure it will be sturdy enough. My buddy has a playseat and he is prob like 225. It holds up. I chose mine cause i tend to travel to friends houses to game so I wanted something portable. I also like the fact that mine sits ultra low to the ground.

MC that seat looks awesome on yours!! Im jealous.

That's a sick seat. You should get a G27 to go with it.. you won't regret it.

^ill be gettin a g27 when this dies. Im a bit upset the g27 stick shift cant be locked into the slapshift position like the g25. I like manual but a full on 6sp gearbox is gonna end up costing me seconds on lap time. I like my slap shift. But yeah g27 is top notch.

:yum:

Can't believe I'm just seeing this thread...Add me suckas! "KingZee"

I need a racing cockpit!!!

I've been looking at the OpenWheeler racing cockpit and perhaps the Thrustmaster T500RS wheel.

after a day of using mine.... i have to say i recommend the GTR Simulator

Home

the GTS version like i got lists for 349 but i made an offer on ebay to a wholesaler and got it for 290 plus shipping

Damn thats a great deal!! Congrats, love the setup:tiphat:

yeah i mean shipping was like $85 so i still paid 375 after everything.... but they had it for buy it now for 319... i thought 290 would be low ball but they took it...

Here's my setup hidden away in the guest room. My girlfriend wouldn't let me have a "toy car" in the living room...:shakes head:

That new Fanatec wheel looks sick. I am going to order it along with the clubsport shifter and handbrake as soon as they are released. Hopefully it doesn't take 3 months to ship like the GT2 wheel.

looks like DLC is finally coming at the end of OCT...so maybe this game isnt 100% dead yet!

New cars coming. Game is not dead!! I race all the time.

yeah i mean i do too...but its just grinding out the weekly seasonals is all thats left for me really


the SLS AMG event made me almost have an aneurysm ... i spent hours and hours on those POS comfort soft tires...

i got down to a 1:17.7 but then said to hell with it.... too frustrating

Wow good time w the sls. Its a tough event. The leader is 1:14 last I saw. Ugh. I like the seasonals but ONLINE is where its at. I could race online w my wheel forever.

Online is where it is at! That's the only way that I play the game now,

Here are a few photos of my new project.

Not quite done yet but hopefully it will be usable very soon.

^^^ looking good!

Nice setup.


I need to pick up a wheel and stand. Not sure which to go with.

Nice Eric. Correct me if Im wrong but you said you dont have a wheel correct?? Which are you looking into/ what did you get?

I bought the Logitech G27 a couple weeks ago.

Which system are you on Red? Id suspect PS3 since you are in the gt5 thread. The GT force by Logitch is what I have. For the $130 it costs its amazing. I have been using mine for years and many times a week. It stands up to all the abuse I throw at it and I beat on it pretty hard. Very suprised at the quality. Though the Logitech G27 is where its at. The pedal feel is amazing and its fun as hell to drive a 6sp manual gearbox. The wheel itself is top notch w very realistic paddle shifters. My seat, the Gameracer Pro is one of the cheaper seats out there, around $400 it was I think, but has full adjustability and is just as good as the pricier seats. If you play racing games a wheel and seat make the experience 100x better.

All-in-all, I've spend around $100 for the materials minus the wheel. The G27 cost me $200 and the seats are from my '97 Eclipse. I had bought a leather interior for my Spyder 5 years ago and I kept the old seats. I'm so glad I did!

The materials consist of 2x4's, 1 sheet of 1/2" plywood, and 2 2x4' sheets of MDF and various bolts and screws. It should be quite sturdy.

I should be ready for GT5 Spec II!!!

wow a g27 for $200, good deal. How you score that, used?
