I love gran turismo drifting. the hks s15 i added all the performance stuff that wasn't on it already. (like bigger turbo, lsd, clutch/flywheel, transmission, and some other things ) the skyline i can get much bigger angles but its got bad snap-back. i still like using my sil-eighty

 

Holy crap the last race in profesional mode is hard! even my 787b with the biggest turbo is barely keeping up with that damn minolta toyota and its still only a 7 point race!! i got 7 of the races done (coming second in the first race). Im so glad you can exit the races to go and save it unlike GT3 where you had to sit there and do them all in one sitting (or leave the ps2 on and let the motor burn out, which ive done twice).

I still cant drift well. I think after i open up the rest of the game ill start practicing. i bought my s13 silvia and did all the same mods as my real car and (tried) drifting that. didnt work. I wish i could drift like funk. . .slicks all around! im still using sports tires. oh, dont put sport tires in front and comfort tires in back! spin city! Camero SS with 600+hp and NoS. . .fun car to get sideways on El Capitan.

 

Doc Oc- I wish it where real life. I made over 5 million in under a year of game time. I dont think it would all go to cars though. . .

 

im having trouble drifting in gt4, in gt3 w/ sim tires and good suspesion lsd and no traction control it was awesome, in gt4 the cars snap back like crazy when you counter, ther is an option under the steering menu to turn the sensitivity down on the steering but still its crazy sensitive and has a lot of snap back, im tryin different combos of the standard tires using the hachi mostly, anybody have any suggestions, im so happy autum mini is back but i gotta be able to drift it better.

 

as far as using B-Spec mode to get easy money.... if you put it on b-spec and then hit R1 to view the map screen, you can hold L1 and hit right on d-pad to make the race 3x faster than 'real time'.... now the computer will auto-pit when needed but it will go back on 1x after the pit stop... so if u pay attention to it, you can re-set it on 3x= money fast as possible...... i personally have been doing the endurance races that way.... even still, the 3 mofo 24hr races will take 8hrs to do.... your welcome.

 

yeah, i like the b-spec mode. its awesome. but im doing more drifting than anything. lol...if u cant tell by all the pics ive posted of me drifting....lol

 

ive had very little success in drifting in GT4. in gt3 it was much easier.

any insights to drifting with gt4?

 

yeah, turn off all drivers aides, put on either econo tires, or spend the money on the super slicks. do a few mods like racing exhaust, stage 1 turbo( even if its already turbo, it helps with getting the tires loose. ) racing intercooler, full suspension, and the clutch/flywheel and lsd...and maybe the carbon driveshaft. that is just the basics. u can even lighten it up. this game does have very realistic handling, so just drift like u would ur real car.it just takes a little time. im still not that great at it. but im getting better everyday i practice. so when are we gonna have some drifting LAN partys?

 

So who is going to host a big GT4 drifting party? I'd volunteer my house, but my TV isn't that big and I don't have the LAN thing...

 

i'll host one in a month (big tv) someone bring a lan thing though.
