Awesome GT-R for sale
 
http://www.japaneseusedcar.ca/ucar/1...modified01.htm

Runs damn smooth for a 71.....

If only I have money to spare.

RC45 12-13-2009 09:53 PM

Or youcould just get you Forza3 and build your own and thrash it about some decent roads... much cheaper in the long run ;) hehe

This is my 71 GT-R - its actually a hoot to throw about - not that fast, but loads of fun.

Please pinch me. I think I've read that RC45 owns a GT-R :-P

5vz-fe 12-13-2009 10:52 PM

hahaha.....he'll never own the newer GT-R.....he still like the ones not controlled by electronic gizmos.

RC45 12-13-2009 11:06 PM

hehe - yeah, I am a little embarassed to admit I really like the old 6-banger girl :P I have restrained myself from doing the normal Forza3 thing of going AWD and modern engine upgrade, and stuck with a simple cam and bolt on strategy, yields about 290bhp. Couple with -1.8 camber and sticky street tyres is the perfect tool for Japanese mountain roads... hell I bet they could base an entire performance genre off this one car - wait.... they did LOL :lol:

Here is what the car looked like when we bought it:

A couple visits to the paint booth menu and ugrade shop menu and this is what we ended up with :lol:

To buy a car in such a pity state, retoring to a pristine level and even with the driving wheel on the wrong side, there's no other explanation: you must love her :-P

RC45 12-15-2009 07:53 AM

Here's another car that is fun to thrash up and down twisty roads...

The owner of the car and I had some correspondence a while back, I can ask him if he has any on file.

Also, some private messaging sent

I need to work on creating the correct font for the Daytona car numbers... but this will do for now.

I feel like that stock Camaro suspension would be showing the body roll a lot more than that. infact it looks flat as a plane ground around those mountain corners..

Well, I am sure Turn 10 are modelling a NEW 1979 suspension, not an old wore out one - there is a fair amount of body roll, but I also believe it is being offset by the sever lack of grip. The more grip, the more body roll. Perhaps the lack of body roll is more of a damning of their tyre model than the anything else...

...or perhaps you are expecting a 1979 Camaro to suck a lot more thna it does LOL.

I might redo the car with a full upgraded suspension set to full soft to mirror a wore out 30 year old suspension.

RC45 12-23-2009 12:06 PM

I figured it might be more useful to start a new thread instead of continuing to clutter the GT-R 4 sale thread ;)

By popular request (sort of) - a more "realistic" 1979 Z28 handling setup...
